This sums up the premise of the show. The spy Twilight needs to infiltrate a school to get information on a terrorist. To do this, he creates a fake family consisting of a young girl who’s an esper and a woman who’s secretly an assassin. Only Anya, the child knows the other two’s secret identities.
The original manga for Spy x Family was written by Tatsuya Endou and published in Shounen Jump+. The anime is being directed by veteran anime director Kazuhiro Furuhashi who has previously directed Dororo, Ruroni Kenshin, and the 1999 adaptation of Hunter X Hunter.
