Spy x Family, Vol. 1

Today’s post is on Spy x Family, Vol. 1 by Tatsuya Endo. It is 220 pages long and is published by Shonen Jump. The cover has Twilight/Lloid on the cover. The intended reader is someone who likes comedy manga, spy stories, and  just plain fun reads. There is no foul language, no sex, and mild violence in this manga. The story is told from third person close of mostly Lloid. There Be Spoilers Ahead.

From the back of the book- Master spy Twilight is the best at what he does when it comes to going undercover on dangerous missions in the name of a better world. But when he receives the ultimate impossible assignment—get married and have a kid—he may finally be in over his head!

Not one to depend on others, Twilight has his work cut out for him procuring both a wife and a child for his mission to infiltrate an elite private school. What he doesn’t know is that the wife he’s chosen is an assassin and the child he’s adopted is a telepath!

Review- A very funny manga about a spy, an assassin, and a telepath in a world on the brink of war. Super-spy Twilight has been given a new assignment to stop an extremist politician by getting to know him. But the politician only leaves his safe house to see his child at this elite school. So Twilight must get a wife and child in a week and get the child into the school. I’m not making sounds as funny as it is, with all three hiding who they really are from each other but somehow still being as odd as a spy, an assassin, and a telepath would be. The marriage proposal is one of the funniest things I have read this year. I highly recommend this manga. 

I  give this manga a Five out of Five stars. I get nothing for my review and I bought this manga with my own money.
