‘Spy x Family’ gets English dubbed release date
On April 11, Crunchyroll revealed that Spy x Family‘s English dub will have a release date of April 16. That’s just one week after the anime’s premiere in Japan, meaning we won’t have to wait long before diving into this take on the story. The first episode will be available starting at 5:30 p.m. EST, and weekly installments will arrive every Saturday at that time.
For those unfamiliar with the story, Spy x Family adapts Tatsuya Endo’s manga of the same name. It follows a spy named Twilight, who is tasked with finding a family so he can enact his next mission. However, according to Crunchyroll’s synopsis for the series, his new wife and daughter have secrets of their own:
“‘Twilight’ takes on the identity of psychiatrist Loid Forger and starts looking for family members. But Anya, the daughter he adopts, turns out to have the ability to read people’s minds, while his wife, Yor, is an assassin! With it being in each of their own interests to keep these facts hidden, they start living together while concealing their true identities from one another.”
The dynamic between the members of the Forger family promises to be one of the most compelling parts of the new anime. Who will bring Loid, Anya, and Yor to life in the English dub?
