Spy x Family 2 Gets A Premiere Date For October 07: What We Know So Far
Fans of the thrilling espionage anime, “Spy x Family,” have been eagerly awaiting the return of this captivating series. After the success of its first season, which concluded in 2022, the announcement of season 2 at Jump Festa 2023 has sent waves of excitement among viewers worldwide. With its intriguing plot and memorable characters, including Anya, Yor, Bond, and Loid, “Spy x Family” quickly became a sensation in 2022, blending slice-of-life moments and humor with a complex and dark storyline. The good news is that not only are we getting a second season, but also an upcoming movie. Let’s dive into what we know so far about “Spy x Family” Season 2 and what you can expect.
What is the plot of ‘Spy x Family’ season 2?
“Spy x Family” unfolds the story of Twilight, a master spy who adopts the identity of psychiatrist Loid Forger. His mission is to create a fictitious family to infiltrate the inner circle of the influential political leader, Donovan Desmond. However, what Twilight (Loid) doesn’t initially realize is that his seemingly ordinary wife, Yor, is also a secret assassin known as the Thorn Princess. Adding another layer of complexity to the plot, their seemingly innocent daughter, Anya, possesses telepathic abilities.
The highly anticipated second season of the anime begins with the Cruise Adventure storyline, where the Forger family embarks on a vacation aboard a luxury cruise ship. While it may seem like a typical family holiday, Yor has a different mission – to protect a noble family on the ship from assassins while keeping her true identity as an assassin hidden from her family and potential operatives on the ship.
According to the manga source material, the Cruise Adventure arc is relatively short, spanning approximately 10 to 12 episodes at best. In light of this, the second season might follow a similar format to the first season, possibly divided into two parts. This approach would also allow for a deeper exploration of Loid’s traumatic backstory.
When is ‘Spy x Family’ season 2 releasing?
Mark your calendars because “Spy x Family” season 2 is set to premiere on October 7, 2023. Fans can catch the anime on Crunchyroll and Netflix for streaming. Additionally, an exciting “Spy x Family” movie is scheduled to hit Japanese theaters on December 22, although its international release is yet to be confirmed.
Who is in the voice cast of season 2?
Based on the season 2 trailer, it’s evident that the primary voice cast from the first season will be returning. Expect to hear Takuya Eguchi as Loid Forger, Atsumi Tanezaki as Yor Forger, Saori Hayami as Anya Forger, and Kenichirou Matsuda as Bond Forger. While season 1 featured a supporting cast, it’s uncertain whether all of them will reprise their roles given the change in the setting for season 2, which takes place primarily on a cruise ship.
Final Thoughts
“Spy x Family” Season 2 is undoubtedly a highly anticipated anime event for fans of the series. With a thrilling storyline, beloved characters, and the promise of more exciting adventures, it’s no wonder that viewers are counting down the days until its premiere on October 7, 2023. As the Spy x Family universe continues to expand with a movie release later this year, there’s plenty for fans to look forward to in this action-packed spy comedy.
