Optional 7.96 110 min 2023

Spy × Family Code: White sends the Forger family on a mission to Frigis, a northern country, under the pretext of a school cooking event — but Loid's true mission is to retrieve a stolen microfilm from an enemy faction operating in the region. The film captures the series' signature blend of action thriller and family comedy, placing the Forger family's three core dynamics under new pressures while maintaining the warmth that defines the show. Anya gets an extended spotlight as her psychic powers prove more integral to the plot than usual, and Bond the dog also plays a meaningful role, making Code: White one of the rare entries in the franchise that truly involves all four family members in the resolution.

The film was produced with the full involvement of both WIT Studio and CloverWorks, the studios behind the TV series, and benefits from theatrical production values that elevate already high-quality animation to genuinely impressive heights. The action sequences — particularly those involving Yor — are among the best-animated content in the Spy × Family universe. Thematically, the film explores what the Forger family's fake relationship actually means to each member in quiet, understated ways that longtime fans will find deeply satisfying. Code: White is the best theatrical Spy × Family content produced so far and is recommended for all fans of the series.
