Result of her traumatic past or just a coincidence?
Summary:
Anya uses weird language while addressing Yor and Loid.
It might be connected to her past experiences.
It also might be because of her very young age.
Most of the time, when we think or talk about Spy x Family’s Anya we mention how adorable and precious she is. But there are other times, unfortunately, times to get real and think of her past. Today is one of those times.
Anya’s language
When Anya addresses Yor and Loid as mom and dad, she uses the Japanese words “haha” and “chichi”. While they do indeed mean “mom and dad”, fans have pointed out that this is an incorrect usage of the terms.
Both “haha” and “chichi” are used when you want to discuss your parents with another person, not as a way of addressing them. When used this way, it sounds a bit weird because it’s like she says “my mom/dad”. Also fans say that these words are commonly used by adults talking to other adults, which makes it even odder for Anya to use them.
Imagine having a conversation with one of your parents when they ask you to clean your room or help them with something, and you reply with “Yes, my mom/dad”. This is what Anya does all the time. While this sounds funny and even a little bit cute, fans have some sad theories that might explain Anya’s language.
She never had a proper family
One of the theories is that Anya has been adopted many times before, but each time the family didn’t want her and decided to leave her at some point. In all these families Anya used to have parents that didn’t love her, so it’s important for her to emphasize that Yor and Loid are HER mom and dad. They are the first ones who gave her love and made her feel cared for. Who’s cutting onions here, anyway?
Another idea is the complete opposite. What if instead of having multiple moms and dads she had none? Maybe she was never part of a family before and that’s why she has no idea how to address her parents? No one taught her this, and she’s still very young, so it’s okay to not know some things.
To make it a little bit less sad, there’s another idea. Anya is a little child, it was implied that she had lied about her age, and she might be even younger than 6. So her manner of speaking is just childish, and it doesn’t have any deeper meaning.
