Spy x Family manga author, Tatsuya Endo posted on September 30 an illustration of the series’ Anya Forger for the digital release of “SOUVENIR,” BUMP OF CHICKEN’s new song, which is the opening theme song for the anime’s second cour. The anime began broadcasting on October 1. It was a quote-tweet of the band’s post, which announced the release along with the lyrics on September 29.
The newly-released illustration shows the Forger family’s daughter and little Esper, Anya Forger happily celebrating the digital release of “SOUVENIR,” wearing her iconic pair of hair ornaments, a white one-piece dress, a long red-and-white stripe muffler, a pair of black boots, and what’s more, a cat’s tail. The costume is a reference to BUMP OF CHICKEN’s cat character, Nicole. In the picture, Anya clumsily fails to pronounce the “o” of the band’s name and calls the song’s name like a cat. Her line reads: “The stuff Bumpo f Chicken guys are singing came out. Souvenya~“
