The first season of the Spy x Family anime ran for two cours with 25 episodes in total, but it’s been announced that Season 2 will only be running for 12 episodes spread across three home media releases in Japan. This shorter episode season could be for a number of factors, but the biggest of which is likely due to the upcoming release of the debut movie, Spy x Family Code: White, meaning less episodes of the TV anime. But it’s a fair trade off considering that Season 2 will still cover quite a bit of ground.
