Tatsuya Endo Apologizes for Short Chapter 111 Release
In his recent post on X, Endo issued an apology to fans for the shorter length of Chapter 111 of Spy x Family.
He explained that it is all due to the schedule of the proofreading period during the New Year holidays but, despite its shorter-than-usual length, it is still treated as part of the main story.
"Episode 111 of Spy x Family has been updated. I'm sorry, due to the schedule for proofreading over the New Year holidays, the pages are very short, but given the content, I'm treating it as the main story. Thank you very much," he wrote in his post.
Fans responded to Endo's post by assuring him that they took no issue with the shorter length of the recent chapter since it focused on Anya Forger's backstory and felt that it was still a valuable piece of the overall story.
What Happened in Spy x Family Chapter 111?
Chapter 111 of Spy x Family finally gave fans their first glimpse at Anya Forger's biological mother and a quick look at Anya's younger years.
Anya's mother appeared through a flashback dream where she was seen having the same hairstyle and dress as her daughter.
During the brief glimpse at the past, fans learned that Anya's mother was a present figure to her daughter when she was still alive and hinted to Anya that she doesn't feel any freedom in her life. Anya comforted her by hugging her.
While this was a quick look at Anya's past, it showed that Anya had a good relationship with her mother and explained her instant affinity for Yor when she became her new mother figure.
The next chapter is expected to commence a new arc for the story.
