SPY x FAMILY’s First 3 Episodes Get Theatrical Screenings in Japan to Celebrate TAAF 2023 Win
Back in December, the SPY x FAMILY anime revealed that it’ll be getting a film in 2023, though we never imagined their big screen debut would happen sooner than expected with the first three episodes of the TV anime being shown in theaters.

The SPY x FAMILY TV anime series directed by Kazuhiro Furuhashi (Dororo) at both WIT Studio and CloverWorks, with character designs by Kazuaki Shimada (The Promised Neverland) and music produced by [K]NoW_NAME (Dorohedoro). A second season and film are currently in production for a 2023 release. Crunchyroll streamed the first season of the anime as it airs in Japan, and describes the series as such:
World peace is at stake and secret agent Twilight must undergo his most difficult mission yet—pretend to be a family man. Posing as a loving husband and father, he’ll infiltrate an elite school to get close to a high-profile politician. He has the perfect cover, except his wife’s a deadly assassin and neither knows each other’s identity. But someone does, his adopted daughter who’s a telepath!
