Recent developments in the Spy x Family manga have shown us that Anya is capable and has a fighting chance to become one of the Imperial students in the Eden Academy. It has been only one year since she joined the school and has managed to collect almost half of the Stella stars needed to be eligible for this title. While almost no one had any hope with her because of her goofy nature and the way she has non-existent academic aptitude, her getting the fourth star in Spy x Family Chapter 127-2 has proven everyone wrong.

But for the fandom being proved wrong is seen as a good thing because the way she has earned them shows us that Anya should not be underestimated because these Stellas she has earned come from some of the most incredibly creative situations. For now, when Loid gets to know about this news, one thing is for sure that he will have to offer something to her as part of a celebration, and knowing Anya, the demand is going to be something outrageous.
List of all the events that earned Anya her Stella in Spy x Family

In Spy x Family, the events that led to Anya earning her four Stella's have been:
- Her first Stella Star came in Chapter 16, when Anya dove into a hospital pool to save a drowning boy named Ken. It was an act of genuine heroism that proved she could earn Stella's outside academics. That moment felt symbolic: Anya might struggle in class, but her empathy and bravery are real.
- She got a second Stella during the bus hijacking incident (Chapter 75), where her courage once again shone through.
- Anya earned a third Stella by scoring an incredible 89 in Classical Language, only to immediately receive a third Tonitrus after failing her math final with a brutal 24.
- Spy x Family Chapter 127 is where the tone truly shifts. By standing up for Henry Henderson during false bribery accusations and helping expose Murdoch Swan’s illegal admission schemes, Anya earns her fourth Stella Star, alongside Becky, Damian, Bill, and others.
If Anya can reach the halfway point through kindness, courage, and stubborn optimism, then maybe Operation Strix really does have a future.
Fan reactions: Readers finally see the light

Since the latest chapter of Spy x Family has been released, the fandom has been overjoyed with how the events have turned out. With Anya getting her fourth Stella, the community has taken over social media to discuss the reasons why this seems like character growth in the right direction:
"I need Loid thinking about his family now that Anya has her 4th Stella and is getting closer to his goal. I NEED IT #SPY_FAMILY," said a fan.
"anya getting 4 stellas in her first year of school and yor is basically one of melinda’s girlfriends meanwhile best spy of westalis loid forger cant even get a second meeting with donovan IJBOL 😭😭," added another fan.
"Anya already has half the stellas needed to become an Imperial student, I'm a proud mom," stated a netizen.
"just wait, shes going to get another Tonitrus bc that is how his baby functions 😭😭💀😭 (im still proud on Anya, you go gurl! show papa you can be an umperial skolar!!)" added yet another fan.
What makes this milestone resonate is that Anya in Spy x Family is still only five years old, navigating a curriculum meant for older children while hiding telepathy, abandonment fears, and the weight of a world-saving mission she barely understands. She’s impulsive, naive, and often short-sighted, but she’s also deeply empathetic.
Final thoughts
Four Stellas doesn’t mean victory is guaranteed. Tonitrus Bolts still loom, and academics remain a minefield. But for the first time, Anya’s progress feels sustainable. She isn’t just chasing Stella for Loid’s sake, as she has earned them by being herself. And that’s why Spy x Family fans finally believe.
