Exciting news for anime enthusiasts as Spy x Family Code: White gears up for its US release on April 19. Fans in the states will be able to enjoy the animated film in both Japanese with English subtitles and an English-language dub. Unfortunately, fans in the UK and EU are still waiting for a release date to be announced. Although the film isn't canon with the manga and anime's main timeline, it features the familiar Forger family in a unique story that has performed exceptionally well in Japan, racking up about $38.35 million in earnings.

For those unfamiliar with the premise, Spy x Family centers around a makeshift family comprised of a spy, an assassin, and their telepathic adopted daughter. The movie seems to offer the same charming and comedic dynamic the series is known for, as they navigate a supposed family winter vacation while dealing with their secret lives. The film's success in Japan and the production crew's heavy hitters promise a cinematic experience that could match the beloved source material's charm.

Is Spy x Family Code: White canon with the anime and manga series?

No, Spy x Family Code: White is not canon with the main events of the anime and manga series – it's an original story.

As additional background, Spy x Family has been a hit since its manga debut in 2019. Created by Tatsuya Endo, the series quickly gained a following for its unique blend of action, comedy, and domestic drama. It was adapted into an anime series in 2022 and received critical acclaim for its storytelling and animation quality, which is a collaboration between WIT Studio and CloverWorks. The series has also expanded its cultural influence with cross-overs into other media, as indicated by its appearance in the video game Street Fighter 6.
