As a young child, Anya is very impressionable towards the people around her. For instance, reading Loid's mind and attempting to mimic him, and learning how to punch from Yor. Given her telepathic ability, which ostracized her from people and her many foster homes, Anya instantly took to "Twilight" for being a real spy. Since being adopted, she wanted to go wherever he was going in hopes of seeing the spy stuff she always sees on TV. However, shortly after being adopted by Loid, she learns of the harshness of espionage and does her best not to interfere with his spy work. Despite this, Anya enjoys spy cartoons, her favorite being Spy Wars, and is often seen watching it whenever she can. Anya also finds excitement in Loid and Yor's secret jobs and identities. Anya is quite clever, being able to spell long words by herself and helping Loid out as best she can, even nudging Loid and Yor together.Anya's behavior portrays her as younger than the age she initially claimed to be, which is around 6 years old. In reality, Anya is about 5 years old, and she pretended to be 6 after reading Loid's mind and realizing he needed a 6-year-old child. Loid, being supernaturally astute, had initially estimated her age to be younger than six. Anya's demeanor reflects her young age, as she is gregarious, trusting, simple-minded, and easily distracted. She may not fully grasp the bigger picture or see the grand scheme of things, which is typical for children her age. Anya, like many young children, is self-centered and unaware of how her actions affect others. She opposes Nightfall as her "mother" due to the fear of becoming an honor student through harsh methods. She is impulsive, breaking rules for excitement, and easily changes plans for personal gains, such as treats or awards. This is not to say she is unintelligent or narcissistic, as it is common for young children to be unable to fully consider others' needs at such a young age. Given her younger age, it is remarkable that Anya can keep up with an advanced curriculum designed for older children. While some may perceive her as intellectually lacking for a six-year-old, she is most likely a highly gifted, talented, and precocious young girl, showcasing impressive abilities for her age.Anya is shown to understand complex certain situations and what solutions are necessary but not the more abstract parts of it. For example, she comes up with clever plans to befriend Damian, the second son of Loid's target, in order to help Loid's mission. She has attempted to help him with an art project and use her dog, Bond, as bait for an invitation to his house after reading his mind and learning he loves dogs. However, she failed to realize that her lack of art skills was not only not helping him but actually making him hate her more, or the fact that a kid who has repeatedly expressed his intense disdain for her would effortlessly become her best friend because they both have dogs.One of Anya's most remarkable traits is that she does everything she can to help Loid in his mission to prevent a war and "achieve world peace," although in a childlike and innocent way. As such, she puts all her effort into getting close to Damian, to help Loid accomplish his mission. Anya is often seen creating "plans" that might help her get along with him. "So excited!"
