Recap of Spy x Family Episode 1

After a distinguished Ostanian diplomat is killed in a car accident, the secret agency concludes that he was assassinated by a far-right party bent on war with Westalis. As a result, they hire the secret agent Twilight to investigate the topic in order to expose their plot and prevent the situation from spiraling out of control. Meanwhile, the secret spy obtains some unflattering images of the foreign minister, which will be utilized to force him to quit from his position.

Twilight instantly discards his phony identity and boards a train to Berlint, where he will have to get closer to and get more information on National Unionist Party President Donovan Desmond. Desmond, on the other hand, is a very private person who rarely appears in public. The only way to get to know him is to attend social gatherings at his son’s school, the elite Eden Academy. He is frequently present at these occasions, along with the region’s political and social elites. However, only parents are permitted to join these events. Twilight will need to adopt a child if he wants to be a part of them.

Although the secret spy is initially upset about forming a phony family, because he prefers to work alone, he does not have much of a choice. He accepts to work in Operation Strix because the peace between the two nations is at stake. Twilight immediately obtains a family flat in Berlint under his new name, Loid Forger, a psychiatrist. He then proceeds to the orphanage, where he meets and adopts Anya, a young woman who can read and write. However, he is fully unaware that she is not just any regular child, but an esper with the ability to read people’s minds.

Although he dislikes taking anyone with him when he goes shopping, Anya, being strong and unyielding, manages to persuade Twilight. Anya is constantly on the alert for opponents who may attack both of them unexpectedly because she can read his mind and knows he is a spy. Twilight’s first outing with him is eye-opening, as he learns a few things about her likes and dislikes. The next day, however, he manages to sneak out of the flat by himself, which proves to be a catastrophic mistake. While looking for anything fascinating, Anya discovers a secret communication device in a suitcase, which she uses to send a message.

Unfortunately, the message is intercepted by the same thugs who were planning to blackmail the foreign minister, and they track down Twilight’s house and take Anya. When Twilight arrives home, he fights off the intruders and passes himself off as one of the kidnappers in order to infiltrate the property where Anya is being held. He then rescues his adopted daughter and instructs her to report to the nearest police station before resuming his fight with the evil men. Twilight finds Anya near a phone booth again when he returns, and she offers him a strong hug. She refuses to leave him even for a second, and the secret spy’s heart melts in an instant.

Does Anya Pass the Eden Academy Entrance Exam in Spy x Family Episode 1?

Twilight knows after freeing Anya from the captors that they must work extremely hard to pass the renowned Eden Academy entrance exam. He works hard to teach Anya what she needs to know. On the day of the exam, she attempts to use her mind-reading abilities to elicit some of the answers from the students seated next to her. However, this does not bode well because the majority of them are grappling with the difficult questions.

Recognizing that her powers are useless in this situation, she places all of her faith in the hard work she put in with Twilight. As she begins to concentrate, Anya discovers she probably knows a lot more than she thought. Twilight searches for Anya’s name on the list on the day of the results and begins celebrating as soon as he finds it. So she passes the coveted Eden Academy entrance exam.

Twilight is surprised to find that there will be a second assessment, as well as a parent-teacher meeting, when they receive the letter from the school. However, he cannot go there alone because the notice clearly indicates that the youngster must accompany both parents, with no exceptions. Twilight and Anya appear to be on the lookout for a mother to round out their fictitious brood.
