Dec 17, 2022 7:08 PM (PST) by Vindstot | Forum Discussion
The Jump Super Stage for the Spy x Family anime series announced a second season and an anime movie on Sunday. The movie will feature a brand-new story by the original creator Tatsuya Endou, who is also credited for the orignal character designs and supervision. The new season and movie are scheduled for a 2023 premiere.

Spy x Family adapts Endou's action comedy manga, which he launched in Shounen Jump+ web magazine in March 2019. Shueisha published the tenth volume on October 4. The manga has a cumulative 26.5 million copies of its volumes in print.

The first anime season produced by Wit Studio and CloverWorks aired in split cours in Spring and Fall 2022. Crunchyroll simulcast the anime with subtitles and subsequently began streaming an English dub.

VIZ Media began publishing the manga in English on its Shounen Jump platform in September 2019 and published the eighth volume on September 30. The ninth volume is scheduled for a March 31 release next year. Shueisha's Manga Plus service also began simulpublishing the manga in English in March 2019.

Synopsis
Corrupt politicians, frenzied nationalists, and other warmongering forces constantly jeopardize the thin veneer of peace between neighboring countries Ostania and Westalis. In spite of their plots, renowned spy and master of disguise "Twilight" fulfills dangerous missions one after another in the hope that no child will have to experience the horrors of war.

In the bustling Ostanian city of Berlint, Twilight dons the alias of "Loid Forger," an esteemed psychiatrist. However, his true intention is to gather intelligence on prominent politician Donovan Desmond, who only appears rarely in public at his sons' school: the prestigious Eden Academy. Enlisting the help of unmarried city hall clerk Yor Briar to act as his wife and adopting the curious six-year-old orphan Anya as his daughter, Loid enacts his master plan. He will enroll Anya in Eden Academy, where Loid hopes she will excel and give him the opportunity to meet Donovan without arousing suspicion.

Unfortunately for Loid, even a man of his talents has trouble playing the figure of a loving father and husband. And just like Loid is hiding his true identity, Yor—who is an underground assassin known as "Thorn Princess"—and Anya—an esper who can read people's minds—have no plans to disclose their own secrets either. Although this picture-perfect family is founded on deception, the Forgers gradually come to understand that the love they share for one another trumps all else. [Written by MAL Rewrite]
