Spy x Family: Volume 11 is a hefty volume at just over 200 pages. The first two missions are unrelated to the rest of the volume: one illustrating a conflict Loid is having at the hospital with the director and the other bringing Yor’s brother Yuri’s jealousy of Loid front-and-center. Those first two chapters are entertaining--especially Yuri’s jealous fits, as they are hysterically illustrated!
The bulk of the book centers on a hijacking of Anya and Damian’s school bus and gives readers a good look at Anya’s powers and the lengths to which she is going to ingratiate herself to Damian.
I so love the spy and fake-family angle of this manga. But it is elevated ten-fold by the incredible, emotive illustrations.
