"Spy x Family" is a manga or anime centered around the concept of a temporary family. This theme seems to address a void for readers or viewers living in modern society where the number of single-person families is increasing and interpersonal connections are weakening (at least in East Asia). Additionally, the adorable and charming characters seamlessly blend into the genre's characteristic warmth, crafting a heartwarming narrative. Personally, I believe these elements are crucial aspects of the original work.

However, the extraordinary success of this animation isn't solely attributed to having a solid original work. The seemingly insane quality of the animation reflects the staff's unwavering belief in the inevitable success of this anime. Neat Sakuga and the stellar performances by the lavish cast of voice actors delight our senses, while the outstanding action scenes blur the lines of the animation's genre. Especially in the latter part of the movie, during the battle scene, you can feel the nice quality of the animation, to the point where it seems like the animators are experimenting with unique directing techniques despite the animation already being complete and polished.

Given that the genre of this movie falls under slice of life, those who prefer serious or dynamic stories may have reservations. However, I can't imagine an animation with better quality based on this story. Therefore, "Spy x Family" stands out as a noteworthy piece of work in terms of animation craftsmanship.
