Spy x Family Code: White was released on December 22, 2023, and the film was one of the most successful ones in the media as it announced collaborations with so many other media projects. The movie saw a plotline that diverted from the main one of the series, as Loid goes out of this way to teach Anya how to cook.
The reason behind this was that Loid was warned that he could be replaced for Operation Strix if he didn't progress exponentially. So, he traveled alongside his family to teach his daughter how to make a praiseworthy dessert.
But what the fans are more interested in knowing is whether Spy x Family Code: White movie canon or not. Even though the movie doesn't adapt the story from the source material, the manga series, it was still supervised by the manga's author.
Is Spy x Family Code: White adapted from the manga series?
No, the Spy x Family Code: White movie is not canon as it didn't adapt a story from the source material, the manga series. The movie was produced under the supervision of the manga's author, Tatsuya Endo, so it could be considered in the same lore as the original series, but not the main one.
The screenplay for this anime-original movie was written by novelist, Ichirou Ookouchi. Ichirou is famous for his role as a screenwriter in the anime industry as he has written the scripts for some episodes of Kaiju no. 8, Guilty Crown, Devilman Crybaby, and Sk8 The Infinity.
Spy x Family Code: White reached new heights on an international platform as it announced collaborations with some international media projects. In July 2023, a short video consisting of Chun-Li and Yor Forger was released in collaboration with Street Fighter 6.
The same month, the movie announced a collaboration with the spy film Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part On, and a few days before its release, in December 2023, special illustrations for Anya and Bond were released as a collaboration with the cartoon movie Wish.
Spy x Family Code: White summary
After receiving a warning from Handler that he could be reassigned from his 'Operation Strix,' Loid Forger has to find a way to boost the operation which meant that Anya Forger had to gain more Stella Stars. Fortunately, an opportunity arrives as a cooking competition is held at Anya's school, and after some research, Loid finds out that the judge of this competition loves Meremere, a dessert.
The dessert was a local specialty at Frigis, so Loid travels to this city accompanied by his family. As usual, the Forgers get intertwined in another crisis as Anya stumbled across a treasure that had a bar of chocolate. This chocolate contained a microchip inside it which could be used to start a war, and the Forger eats it.
Now, the main villains of this series are after Anya and want to retrieve the chip from her. As good parents, Yor and Loid go after the villains and try to save Anya with everything they have. Unfortunately, they couldn't retrieve the Meremere nor could they devise a recipe for the desert. But the cooking competition was eventually delayed, giving the Forgers another opportunity to visit Frigis in the future for the desert.
