The most popular anime in the Spring 2022 season is Spy x Family, the action comedy that follows the Folger ‘family’ — Loid Forger, Anya Forger and Yor Forger — as master spy “Loid” pushes forward with his next governmental mission.
Possibly the show’s favorite character is Anya Forger, the six-year-old orphan that has just been adopted into the Forger family, and also a girl who is, unbeknownst to her new father and mother, an esper or mind-reader.
Anya is cute, expressive, very funny and, after having been adopted several times before and then returned to the orphanage after things didn’t work out, adamant she will remain with the Forgers. No matter what it takes.
Who voices Anya Forger in Spy x Family, though, and is she voiced by an actress you may have heard of before?
