Recap of Spy x Family chapter 121
The chapter opened at Berlint General Hospital, where Loid and Fiona discussed Melinda Desmond’s absence from her appointments. Loid noted that Melinda’s test results showed no cognitive abnormalities, though her avoidance of him raised suspicions.
Things took a bizarre comedic turn when Melinda invited Yor to her occult reading group. The eccentric seance scene highlighted Yor’s social awkwardness. Asked to share a “trouble,” she shyly confessed her embarrassment over eating leftover yogurt from lids in front of Loid.
While the occultist Crowley read this as a bad omen, Melinda defended Yor’s quirks, offering her reassurance that Loid would accept her no matter what. The chapter ended on a more serious note when Melinda entrusted Yor with a notebook from her earlier appointments with Loid.
This record contained disturbing notes about Donovan’s ability to “read minds,” unnerving Loid as he uncovered a potential link between Donovan and Sigmund Authen, a former prime minister. This twist firmly tied the family subplot back into the overarching espionage narrative.
What to expect in Chapter 122
Now that Yor has deepened her connection with Melinda and Loid has stumbled upon new information about Donovan, Chapter 122 has plenty of ground to cover. Here are the most likely directions: Loid now has Melinda’s notebook containing troubling insights about Donovan’s influence. The revelation that Sigmund Authen met with Donovan could mark a huge turning point in the Strix mission.
Fans can expect Loid to carefully analyze this data and perhaps initiate surveillance or an investigation into Sigmund’s current activities. Given that Donovan has been one of the manga’s most enigmatic figures, this chapter could edge us closer to understanding his true motives.
Anya wasn’t the focus of Chapter 121, but her subplot remains vital. With Loid’s mission hinging on her relationship with Damian, there’s a strong chance Chapter 122 will bring back school dynamics at Eden Academy.
Damian’s character arc, tied to his father’s legacy, may mirror the developments in the Desmond plotline, while Anya’s telepathic awareness adds layers of irony to every interaction.
No chapter of Spy x Family is complete without its trademark humor. Yor’s antics with Melinda’s occult group proved how much Endo enjoys placing her in odd scenarios. Chapter 122 could continue this thread with Yor’s “normal” social activities spiraling into chaos in ways that ironically aid Loid’s mission.
Why Yor and Melinda’s friendship matters in Spy x Family
One of the standout elements of Spy x Family Chapter 121 was Yor’s deepening friendship with Melinda Desmond. While Loid has struggled to make inroads with Donovan, Yor is unknowingly making far more progress by simply being her authentic self.
This parallel is fascinating. Loid’s spycraft yields limited results, while Yor’s sincerity and kindness naturally break barriers. Chapter 122 may continue exploring this irony.
Yor’s growing closeness to Melinda not only helps humanize the Desmonds but may also create an opportunity for Loid to gain intelligence through unconventional channels. In a sense, Yor is unintentionally outpacing Loid’s professional efforts, which fans find both hilarious and symbolically rich.

Final thoughts
Spy x Family Chapter 122 could continue tightening this dual progression: Yor finding confidence in her feelings, and Loid confronting emotions he’s long buried under professionalism. At the same time, the Desmond subplot is heating up, signaling that Endo may be preparing to converge the emotional and espionage arcs into one dramatic climax.
