Spy x Family Premiere Peaks with 3.1% Rating

Spy x Family debuted last April 9 and from there, the show easily got a high rating of 3.1% of the available population for its premiere. The show trended on social media with the main characters of the show doing a solid seat on the Twitter’s trending list. Should the show maintain this high rating, it would continue to soar high and get up on the ranks with other high-rated anime shows such as One Piece, not to mention it is just on its premiere.

Spy x Family will revolve around a spy who tries to build a family in order to fulfill a mission but without realizing that his fake family is nothing near normal: his adopted daughter is a mind reader and his fake wife turns out to be an assassin.

The anime show is based on the pages of the manga series of the same name with the words and illustrations of Tatsuya Endo published twice a week on Shueisha's Shōnen Jump+ app and website. To date, it has eight tankōbon volumes.
