Continue readingSPY x FAMILY
A manga about an elite spy who forms a fake family with a deadly assassin and a telepathic child to carry out his next secret mission.
This is such a fantastic series. I love the premise of a fake family where everyone is hiding a secret. The dynamic between the spy trying to carry out his mission and the contract killer hiding her identity all being completely known by their fake telepathic child is ripe for comedic moments. I’ve never read any of Tatsuya Endo‘s previous work but they’re a master of stylish action scenes that help keep every chapter exciting to read.
It’s available to read on MANGA Plus and I highly recommend it.
