Synopsis

Loid Forger, an elite spy, is warned by his handler that he may potentially be reassigned from his ongoing mission, Operation Strix. To maintain his position, he must make significant progress toward the operation's objectives, which involves having his adoptive daughter Anya earn sufficient Stella Stars to become an Imperial Scholar at Eden Academy.

After learning of a cooking contest that awards the winning student with a Stella Star, Loid researches the judge's preferred dessert to help increase Anya's odds. However, perfectly recreating the judge's favorite meremere requires more than just following a recipe. Thus, the Forgers embark on a vacation to the Frigis region to try an authentic meremere. Not all goes smoothly on the trip, as the Forger family ends up entwined in a sinister plot to reignite war between the countries of Ostania and Westalis.

I'll admit there may be some biases in my review having experienced a full house at midnight in Japan on a weekday, but this movie really encapsulates the charms of Spy x Family while keeping the audience engaged with a high-stakes story. Comparing it to the 2 seasons that have aired so far, this (while not "canon") is the most exciting Spy x Family arc I've been able to watch.

If you enjoy Spy x Family as a whole, it's a great fun watch. Even for new watchers who want a nice movie to see if they want to give the show a try, it ...

Mixed Feelings

Watching this movie made me realize the importance of each other in a family. The main characters showed their efforts in maintaining the family and also care for each other. I can see how Loyd is really comfortable and truly love his "fake" family when he received the order to stop Operation Strix. The efforts Yor made to be a good mom and wife. Also Anya's love for her parents. I believe they should be able to give us a better animation for a movie like this. Overall this is a very lovable movie and I believe everyone should be able to understand and enjoy ...

Unless you are looking for mindless entertainment, don't waste your time watching this movie.

Spy x Family, at this point across all adaptations (both the TV series and this movie), is essentially a filler anime, meaning that nearly every single episode is defined by a stark lack of momentum in the storyline.

Or, perhaps it is more accurate to call it a kids show, a cartoon; something akin to the likes of the Powerpuff Girls, even Spongebob Squarepants (not to belittle these shows, they are great... at times, but both are structured very similarly.) Rather than being your typical villain-of-the-week, Spy x Family employs something more ... unique: trivial/mildly-infuriating problem that could be easily prevented by better parenting (i.e. "discipline")-of-the-week.

Even this movie, which is clearly stated to be non-canon, it still feels like your typical Spy x Family episode. That is,

1. An opportunity to gain a Stella / a problem threatening Westalis presents itself.
2. Anya makes it worse.
3. Yor tries to resolve the problem, only to do nothing, get side-tracked in a pointless side-plot, or makes it worse.
4. Loid is left to fix up the mess, as usual.
5. Everything is resolved and we return to the base-line: nothing is learnt, no development is made, no Stella acquired, and Anya still a sniffling, nose-picking dumbass.

Now, an argument does present itself; doesn't nearly every story follow this exact same principle when boiled down to its most simplest form? Yes, to an extent, but the issue lies in the fact that Spy x Family provides absolutely no development, no gratification at the end of this episodic plot line, for all arcs and episodes. Believe it or not, Code: White follows the exact same principle. And chances are, if you're anything like me, you would prefer to watch a story unfold, develop, watch the characters grow and change, rather than seeing it remain stagnant, deflated and completely formulaic.

However, it goes without saying that of course Spy x Family is quite an entertaining series. Each of the characters has their own charm and the idea strikes me as something quite endearing; people who have never experienced the love and care of a family and have been rejected from institutions or society are pushed together to become a family, thus experiencing what it means to be a parent, to love and to be loved, to be a child. Code:White does a great job at bringing out those emotions. And it is important to keep in mind that Spy x Family is not your typical shonen, which is why its such a great watch with people of all ages. There's not many anime that you can genuinely say that you would be comfortable watching it with your parents, even grandparents, and Spy x Family is one of those anime.

Code:White is a kids movie, simply. And if you like the series, understand that this movie is not-canon and is unfortunately not going to contribute anything to the overarching plot of the series — not like the actual anime is doing that anyways — then by all means, watch it with some friends, family, its a great watch. But because it is so trivial and silly and pointless, especially considering the ending, I simply cannot recommend it.
