Spy X Family stage at AnimeJapan 2023: Timing, cast, what to expect, and more

With the announcement of AnimeJapan 2023, the list of anime set to have their stages in the event has been unveiled. One of the titles fans are excited about is Spy X Family. While the anime previously confirmed the show's sequels during Jump Festa 2023, not a lot was been revealed as fans look forward to the stage set to take place during AnimeJapan 2023.

Tatsuya Endo's Spy X Family follows the story of Twilight, a spy, who was assigned a mission to acquire a family and have the child enroll at the Eden Academy. This was done so he could get close to one of the key board members, Donovan Desmond. Following this, he did acquire a child, Anya, and a wife, Yor, however, they had secrets of their own as Anya was an esper while Yor was an assassin.
