This volume follows the beginning of Anya's school adventures and the proper introduction of Yor's brother Yuri. Just as fun as the first ^_^

After reading the first volume, I figured I’d try the second volume of Spy x Family to get a quick dose of something happy and simple. While it did the job, I didn’t find this set as interesting as the first. A few missions/chapters felt unnecessary to the overall plot (I assume these were supposed to be “fun” episodes for the anime). The pressure put on Anya took me out of the fun and comedic atmosphere because I worried for her. Yor/Thorn Princess provided most of the comic relief due to her growing bond with Anya and protectiveness. It seems like we’ll be learning more about her and her past in the next volume. I’ll still probably continue this series, just because it’s an easy read when I need something light.

Aniya using her telepathic powers to help her Papa is so adorable. She is, after all, a child and a child who wants to make their parents proud.
Don't like the brother so far.

Less action and more laughs than volume one. Wonder cast of new characters at Eden.

sy-on boy’s crush (for a peasant!) is my favorite part

In this volume, we meet Yor's brother (fair warning for the "siscon" trope here), Twilight's handler, and the friends and adversaries Anya will have to contend with at Eden Academy. Anya's school life promises to be very entertaining between the developing crush neither she nor her mark understand, his posse of wannabe tough guy bullies, and her one genuine friend with a spunky attitude and a fiercely loyal heart. Meanwhile, Loid and Yor continue to struggle through the hardships of parenting and feeling like they aren't enough for this child who already believes so wholly in their capabilities. Their family dynamic continues to grow and shift as they navigate "ordinary" life together, and it's so wholesome how firmly they band together to help each other. The bonus mission at the end, a side story originally created to introduce a new audience to the series, is a prime example of this.
