Original title: SPY×FAMILY
SPY x FAMILY is a 2022 Japanese-language animation series. It stars Takuya Eguchi, Atsumi Tanezaki and Saori Hayami.

Loid Forger is a fabricated identity for the agent codenamed Twilight; his new wife Yor moonlights as an assassin; their daughter Anya can read minds and finds the whole arrangement delightful. Produced by Wit Studio and CloverWorks from Tatsuya Endo's manga, the series balances Cold War-style espionage with warm domestic comedy. Beneath the gags about school interviews and cover stories runs a genuinely fond portrait of a pretend household.

A few thoughts on SPY x FAMILY
The mix of spycraft and domestic heart has cousins across media. Death Note trades the warmth for icy tension between two minds who cannot show their hand. Matahari revisits the real seductress-spy who inspired the whole archetype. And the Cowboy Bebop score gives a found-family of misfits its restless, immortal jazz.
Undercover spies juggling secret identities in anime
SPY x FAMILY hides master spy Twilight inside a fake household, where nobody's cover story is what it seems. These titles run on the same double lives: agents working under aliases, secret missions squeezed between ordinary days, and the constant fear of being found out. Mata Hari's own story anchors the espionage in real history.
Found families that grow real out of a fake arrangement
Beneath the espionage, SPY x FAMILY is a fond portrait of a pretend household slowly meaning it. These warm comedies share that pull: mismatched people under one roof, small domestic crises played for heart and laughs, and bonds that sneak up on everyone. Doraemon and Crayon Shin-chan bring the same everyday household affection to the page.
Action-packed shonen with big, colourful casts
When SPY x FAMILY lets Yor cut loose, it hits the kinetic action of classic shonen. These adventures share that energy: outsized personalities, fights that escalate fast, and heroes chasing a goal against long odds. From ninja and hunters to a magic-fuelled quest, they scratch the same itch for spectacle between the quieter family beats.
Sharp minds and clever deductions steal the show
Anya reads minds and turns every school test into a covert operation, so SPY x FAMILY rewards a quick wit. These stories put deduction and mental games front and centre: detectives outthinking suspects, a notebook that kills, and a scientist bending time by logic. They suit anyone who loves watching a clever character work the angles.
