Warning! Contains spoilers for SPY x FAMILY Chapter 79!
From TEACHER x FAMILY setting the stage for his fake central family for the first time, fans already anticipate a battle between Slow And yor could look like, and the manga finally delivers on this promise with a single catch. SPY x FAMILY is a manga by Tatsuya Endo that revolves around the antics of the Forger family, including the spy Loid, the assassin Yor, and the psychic Anya. Loid and Yor are unaware of each other’s double lives, which is good because they work for opposing governments and if they find out, they will likely be forced to fight.
A version of this fight takes place in Chapter 79 of the manga, translated by Casey Loe. After Yor helps some co-workers with their work, they all go out for a drink. Because Yor doesn’t handle alcohol well in Spy x Family, she gets drunk very quickly, which her co-workers use to try and uncover the sordid details of her marriage. When Yor realizes it’s weird not to complain about her mate, she tries desperately to fit in by saying that she’s wanted to kill Loid in the past. Her co-workers naturally don’t believe her, which leads Yor to decide to kill Loid in order to maintain their apparently normal relationship. This leads to a tense confrontation between the two with Yor in her Princess Thorn outfit and Loid in his business suit.

And there’s always the risk that Anya, who knows both of her parents’ secrets, might slip because she’s a child with very few filters.
Regardless of how the match between Loid and Yor plays out, this chapter gives fans a great preview of what it could be.
