Yor Forger is the wife of Loid Forger in the series Spy x Family produced by WIT Studios and Clover Works. This anime tells the story of a fake family consisting of Loid Forger, Yor Forger, Anya Forger, and their dog named Bond.
Yor's real name is Yor Briar, and she works as a clerk at Berlint City Hall. However, her job is just a cover to hide her true identity as a professional assassin.
Yor was 27 years old when she met Loid Forger. She created a fake family with Loid to make her younger brother feel at ease and not worry about her not having a partner.
In addition to hiding her true identity, here are some interesting facts about Yor Forger:
Never dated for 27 years
Despite her very attractive appearance, Yor had never dated a man during her life. This worried her younger brother, Yuri Briar, who became very protective when she got close to a man.
Yuri was afraid that his sister would be taken advantage of by men due to her lack of experience. Before meeting Loid, Yor was often bullied by her coworkers for not having a partner, even though she was already 27 years old.
Orphaned at a young age
Yor Forger originally came from Nielsberg East before moving to Berlint and meeting Loid. Her parents had died when she was very young.
Yor worked to support and educate her brother, who was seven years younger than her. Later, she was recruited by an organization called Garden and trained to become an assassin.
Nicknamed the Thorn Princess
During her missions, Yor didn't use gun but two golden stilettos with small circular handles and sharp tips. These weapons were used for stabbing her enemies, which is why she was nicknamed the Thorn Princess.
Has a younger brother working in the National Security Service
Although Yor Forger's true identity is an assassin, she has a younger sibling who works in the National Security Service.
They keep their true identities secret from each other. Her brother, Yuri Briar, is highly intelligent, but when dealing with his sister, he never questions and accepts everything she says.
Yor's brother works for the National Security Service, which is aligned with Ostania, while her husband, Loid Forger, works as a spy for Westalia. These two factions are in conflict, so what would happen if their true identities were revealed?
Can't cook
Whenever Yor cooks for her family, the food is like poison that makes anyone who eats it faint. Only her brother can eat it because he's used to her cooking since childhood. To be a good foster mother for Anya, Yor is determined to learn cooking from her office friend.
After diligently learning to cook, she can make one dish that's edible. But when she cooks other dishes, they turn out poisonous again.
Poison-resistant but can't handle alcohol
Yor has an ideal body, standing at 170 cm and weighing 60 kg. Working as a professional killer, Yor had to train her body.
Yor's physical strength is even greater than Loid Forger's. One of her assassination targets, who managed to survive, once tried to take revenge by poisoning her drink. However, the poison had no effect and only acted as a painkiller.
Although she's immune to poison, she can't handle alcohol. Just a little alcohol makes her drunk and unconscious.
Proposed with a grenade pull ring
While other couples are proposed to with gold or diamond rings, Yor Forger has a unique story different from others.
She was proposed to by Loid Forger using a grenade pull ring while they were being chased by enemies. Interestingly, Yor herself asked Loid to pretend to get married because they needed each other.
Yor needed a husband to make her brother feel at ease, while Loid needed a wife so that his adopted daughter, Anya Forger, could attend Eden Academy.
Voiced by a famous actress
Yor Forger's voice actress is Saori Hayami, a well-known seiyuu born in 1991. Besides playing Yor Forger, Saori Hayami has also voiced other popular anime characters.
Some characters voiced by Saori Hayami include Uzumaki Himawari from Boruto, Jabami Yumeko from Kakegurui, Shinobu Kochou from Demon Slayer, Yamato from One Piece, Fubuki from One Punch Man, Shouko Nishimiya from A Silent Voice, Yukino Yukinoshita from My Youth Romantic Comedy Is Wrong As I Expected.
In addition to anime characters, Saori Hayami has also voiced characters in games like Kamisato Ayaka from Genshin Impact, Pramanix from Arknights, Shimakaze from Azur Lane, Nagisa from Blue Archive, Ushiwakamaru and Saint Martha from Fate/Grand Order.
These are 8 interesting facts about Yor Forger from Spy x Family that you might not have known. Besides being a terrible cook, she's also not good at lying. Fortunately, her brother easily believes her, so this fake family can still survive to this day.
