SPY x FAMILY CODE: White Review

I watched the movie. SPY x FAMILY Code: White in Japanese (with Greek subtitles) at Village Cinemas in April 2024, during its screening in our country. Below I quote my thoughts in a small review.

I will first mention that I was very pleased that we were able to see the film in our country. In general, the fact that we can now see anime movies in cinema is very positive.

The Story

Tetsuya Endo himself (the mangaka of the manga) participated in the production, which resulted in consistency with the main story. Of course, the film was pleasantly seen and if you knew from little to nothing about the main characters.

I like that Spy x Family's formula is fully followed with one family member getting involved in a situation and the rest being followed. Initially, Anya takes part in a cooking competition at school and Lloyd decides to take his family on a trip to neighboring Frigis country to investigate the perfect sweet that will give them the victory. All this, however, is then overturned.

The characters

Personally, I found the film quite funny and took the action I would like in terms of its three protagonists. Especially, some scenes with Anya were funny on the edge of exaggeration, but that makes us love her. Lloyd, as always, is a badass and ready to do anything for his mission as a spy and his daughter's success. On the other hand, Yor is messing things up in a funny way (happily it didn't last long for the misunderstanding with Loid), but she is willing to defend her family. The romance between Loid and Yor is as good as it should be and pleasant.

The villain of the case was good in his role to the end and I loved her. «vendetta»His with Lloyd. In general, they had divided the final battle into pieces for the protagonists and at some points helped each other. Nevertheless, there were no scriptural facilities or exaggerations missing, but this was not the case in a bad way.

The Forgers proved they were family and had good times together. My favorite is towards the end, all gathered together.

Animation & Music

The animation was on a very good level throughout the film. Very close to that of anime but different and better in some scenes, such as Anya's fantasy and the battle of Yor. Finally, the music that framed the film was very good, especially Opening theme «SoulSoup».

Official summary

Below is the trailer and the official summary of Village Cinemas.

He's a spy. She's a murderer. Together, Lloyd and York keep their double lives to themselves, while pretending to be the perfect family. However, their adopted daughter Anja, a telepath, knows both their exciting secrets without their knowledge.

While under the pretext of taking his family for a winter break this weekend, Lloyd's attempt to make progress on his current mission, Operation Strix, turns out difficult when Anja is accidentally involved and triggers events threatening world peace!
