SPOILERS: Spy x Family Chapter 83 by Tatsuya Endo, available in English on Viz Media and Manga Plus.

Sometimes, Spy x Family‘s Loid’s ability to perfectly replicate whoever he’s trying to disguise himself as is more of a curse than a blessing. And Tatsuya Endo has no one to blame but himself.

Spy x Family‘s Chapter 83 featured a thrilling showdown between Yuri and Loid as both of their respective organizations work to intercept Winston Wheeler, a former WISE agent who is racing to hand over important documents to the SSS. Yuri and Yuri (Loid in disguise) meet and duke it out with the real Yuri getting disarmed but not before he shoots and injures Loid. The two Yuris engage in an exciting hand-to-hand combat, making it increasingly difficult to know who’s the real Yuri and who’s the fake to the point even where Tatsuya Endo confessed he had a hard time keeping track of the Yuris.

Spy x Family began serialization in Shōnen Jump+ in March 2019 and within months, it has quickly become of the most popular manga on the app with many fans asking about a possible anime adaptation. Their wish was granted when Wit Studio and CloverWorks came together to produce the anime in April 2022. Airing in split cour, the series aired for 2 episodes. A second season has been confirmed, adapting the “Cruise Ship” arc, and premieres in October 2023. An original movie, titled Spy x Family Code: White, will premiere on Dec. 22, 2023.
