Spy x Family was one of the most popular anime series of last season and the Forger family played a big part in its success. Loid Forger, the father in the family, is actually the WISE agent Twilight, one of the best spies in Westalis. He currently works in Ostania and tries to prevent a war between the two countries.
Although Loid is one of the main characters of Spy x Family, his mysterious character as a spy means viewers know very little about him. While much of its past is still shrouded in mystery, the manga has clarified more about its character and history. Here are some facts about Twilight that only manga readers know.
8 Becky has a crush on Loid
Becky Blackbell is Anya’s best friend and one of the few people she hangs out with at school. The two are hip-pinched and always get on the defensive, and while they’re both from very different backgrounds, they’re like peas in a pod.
Becky is particularly precocious for her age because of the soap operas she enjoys watching, and seeing how handsome Loid is makes her instantly fall in love with him. While her crush on puppies isn’t taken very seriously by anyone but Becky herself, it’s fun to watch her fantasies run wild.
7 Twilight trains Bond to be a watchdog
Bond is the family dog and an esper with the ability to see the future. As a member of the Forger family, Bond generally leads a peaceful life. Occasionally, however, he gets involved in the perilous missions that Twilight must undertake as part of his duties, showing off his keen sense of intuition and intelligence.
That’s why Twilight started training Bond with the intention of using him as a watchdog. While Twilight may not really plan to use Bond in his spy missions, he hopes Bond will protect his family in case of danger.
6 Twilight has an employee named Nightfall
Twilight isn’t the only spy at WISE; many spies make up the intelligence agency that works for peace between the West and the East. One of those spies is Nightfall, a spy trained by Twilight himself and who is just as competent as he is.
While Nightfall openly displays a cold and stoic demeanor, she has a secret she keeps to herself: she is madly in love with Twilight. Her only reason for not becoming Loid’s wife was because she was on a mission and eager to take Yor’s place in Twilight’s fake family.
5 Loid really works in a real hospital
Twilight’s false identity Loid Forger is intended as a psychiatrist working in a hospital. Since it’s mostly a cover and fans never see Loid at work during the anime, it can be argued that this was just a cover story to explain what he’s doing.
In the end, however, Loid is shown to work at Berlint General Hospital as a real-life psychiatrist and is known among his associates as a good doctor who is passionate about his job. Some WISE spies are also embedded in the hospital staff to aid Twilight in its work.
4 Twilight’s dad was abusive
In his youth, Twilight had a rather troubled relationship with his father. Twilight’s father was a demanding man who insisted that Twilight focus on studying hard instead of playing with his friends, and denounced him for wanting to be part of the military, calling him a coward the military wouldn’t want. .
Despite talking about peace between East and West, Twilight’s father was quite a violent man, hitting Twilight when he wanted to name him and often fighting with his wife. While Twilight’s father had his good points, Twilight generally only remembers him as a terrifying man.
3 Twilight used to be a soldier
Ostania’s relentless attacks on Westalis eventually caused Twilight to lose his family and friends, driving him to despair. After a long life of desperately trying to keep himself alive, Twilight eventually became a soldier, using the identity of a dead man.
As a soldier, Twilight fought primarily to avenge the deaths of his loved ones. His career in the military continued until his impersonation was discovered by WISE, whereupon he was recruited to become a spy. His experiences in the war clearly influenced his desire to avoid war between the two countries.
2 Twilight With Franky In The War
Franky is the closest thing to having a friend Twilight has, though he’ll probably never admit it. As a spy, Twilight mostly relies on Franky for information, although he also relies on him to look after Anya and occasionally Bond. Although Franky always complains about these jobs, he has never tried to get out of them either.
It is eventually revealed that Franky and Twilight first met in the war between Westalis and Ostania. Although they were on opposite sides, the two chose not to fight each other. The two would eventually part ways until they finally meet again as a spy and informant.
1 Twilight doesn’t remember its own name
Loid Forger is not Twilight’s real name; it is just an alias created for his life in Ostania. Twilight is of course also a codename meant to protect his privacy and is actually not his real name. The viewers have never heard Twilight’s real name, as he has not said or revealed it in any way.
It’s even possible that Twilight’s real name will never be revealed, as even he can’t seem to remember his own name. In flashbacks to the past, his name is blackened when said by friends, and he is usually referred to by his old nickname, advisor.
