Spy x Family is a manga series written by Tatsuya Endo and serialized biweekly in Shueisha’s Shounen Jump+ since 2019. Spy x Family is the story of Twilight, a spy who has to take up the name Loid Forger and pretend to be a happily married man with a child in another country to carry out a mission.

To this end, he enlists the help of a 5-year-old child named Anya and a 27-year-old woman named Yor Briar to pose as his daughter and wife, respectively, without them knowing that it is all a farce, both of them having their share of secrets. An anime adaptation of Spy x Family is in production under Wit Studio and CloverWorks, with Furuhashi Kazuhiro directing it, slated to be released in early 2022.
