Released in 2019, the manga Spy x family (pronounced simply "spy family") has quickly established itself as a benchmark series, both in print and on screen. Tatsuya Endo's work never ceases to enthrall audiences with its superlovable characters of Loid Forger, his wife Yor and their adopted daughter Anya. So much so that the manga is even the subject of an attraction at Universal Studios Japan.

The perfect recipe for a comedy

Spy x Family follows in the footsteps of spy comedies such as True Lies (James Cameron, 1994) and Mr & Mrs Smith (Doug Liman, 2005).

The story takes place in a fictional Europe. Twilight, the top spy in the WISE organisation, must prevent a major conflict between the nations of Westalis and Ostania. To do this, he must travel to Berlint, the capital of Ostania, and approach Donovan Desmond, the leader of Ostania's National Unity Party. But to win his trust, he will have to play on family relations, targeting his son Damian.
