Via Oricon, a recent anniversary celebration for the beloved Space Battleship Yamato saw Hideaki Anno discuss the show with both fans and some of the talent behind the series. One of them was a voice actor who portrayed a character that he was quite taken with. While the role might not have been quite as romantic for the voice talent in question, it launched the fandom of an illustrious anime creator in his formative years.

The popular anime “Spy x Family” is set to release its very first feature film, “Spy x Family Code: White,” expanding the series’ universe while providing fans with an original plot that stands on its own outside of the show.

“Spy x Family Code: White” serves as director and storyboard artist Takashi Katagiri’s (“The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild”) directorial debut, and it was produced by Wit Studio. The screenplay was written by Ichiro Okouchi (“Sing a Bit of Harmony”).

The film will be available to stream in select territories around the world in both Japanese with subtitles and dubbed in English, Latin American Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, French, German, Italian and Castilian Spanish.

Here’s everything you need to know about how to watch.

When does “Spy x Family Code: White” come out?

“Spy x Family Code: White” will be available to stream on Crunchyroll Thursday, Sept.

The Straw Hat Pirates are the focus of the One Piece series, and Sanji Vinsmoke was the fourth person to join the crew. Sanji may be a cook who only uses his legs during combat, but he has become one of the strongest pirates in the series. He does not have a Devil Fruit, but he can use Observation and Armament Haki, and he now has superhuman strength, endurance, and durability. Sanji has defeated many opponents over the years, and will probably have to defeat even more characters in the Final Saga.

Sanji will need to defeat a few pirates before the series ends, but he will also need to beat some high-ranking Marines and World Nobles. He may even fight a family member and fellow crewmate. Most of these characters have powerful Haki and Devil Fruits, so they will probably give Sanji a fair bit of trouble.
