The release date for Season 3 of Family of the Spy is certainly on the list of the most anticipated things for fans of good comedies, who are watching with bated breath the film adaptation of “Boat Mission,” one of the best arcs in history. The title combines the theme of family values, espionage and humor, which was highly appreciated by both viewers and critics in the first episodes, so the renewal of the show, and for more than one season, is only a matter of time and the volume of the original manga.
This article contains all the relevant information on the continuation of Spy x Family, supplemented by interesting facts about the franchise as a whole.
When will Season 3 of Family of the Spy be released?
It is still impossible to say for sure whether there will be a Season 3 of Family of the Spy or not, since an official announcement has not yet been made. It is quite possible that after the finale of Part 2 the series will be extended, in which case we should hope for a release not earlier than 2025 of the year. Wit Studio and CloverWorks will probably wait until the manga moves forward a little more so that they don't have to fill the timing with fillers.

Briefly about the events of previous seasons
The plot of the series centers on the life of a fictitious family, whose members hide their real identities from each other. Loyd Forger plays the role of a loving husband and father who works as a psychiatrist, but in reality he is a spy "Twilight" who must prevent a war between Vestalis and Ostania. His wife Yor is the assassin “Thorny Princess”, who agreed to a fictitious marriage because, at 27 years old, she still does not have a soulmate, which may arouse her suspicions. Anya, the little daughter, hides her esper abilities and the accompanying knowledge about the true professions of her “parents,” and her beloved dog Bond has the gift of providence.
To successfully complete the mission, Loyd must spy on Donovan Desmond, the chairman of the National Unity Party of Ostania, and since this person is rather reserved, “Twilight” places his adopted daughter in the same class as the target’s youngest son. Anya tries her best to befriend Damian Desmond, but he has conflicting feelings towards her. However, the girl finds herself a close friend in Becky Blackbell, whom the fictitious father initially suspected of opposing his mission.
The relationship between Yor and Loyd undergoes changes, and warm feelings are gradually established between them and even romantic hints slip through. At a certain point, “The Thorny Princess” begins to doubt her activities as a killer, which is largely facilitated by her attachment to her daughter and the care of her “husband.”
In the continuation of 2023, quite a lot of time is devoted to “Mission on the Ship”, where the internal struggle of the “Thorny Princess” was fully revealed, who was tasked with protecting Olka Gretcher and her son, the last surviving members of the mafia family that runs the criminal world of Ostania, whose heads the new leader awarded the organization. While they escape on a cruise ship to another country disguised as passengers, a professional killer must protect them from attacks from other killers.
Things take an unexpected turn when Lloyd and Anya win tickets to the same cruise, forcing Yor to hide his presence on the ship as a bodyguard. Acting alone and unaware of each other's true roles, everyone achieves their goals. "Twilight" prevents a bomb explosion on a ship that was supposed to be a provocation to start a war, Anya helps keep her parents' secrets, and Miss Forger completes a mission and rethinks her work.
Watching season 3 of the anime Family of a Spy and the remaining episodes of Part 2 will be very pleasant and interesting, because viewers will be treated to more lamp-based everyday life with comedy, at the same time the characters and their inner world will begin to deepen, and for a snack they will be served the dynamic arc of the “Red Circus”, where Anya and her classmates go on an excursion, but their bus is captured by terrorists.
