SPY x FAMILY Season 3’s Bus Jack Arc is racing toward its climax, and ABEMA is marking the moment with a one-hour special. On Saturday, November 22 at 8:00 PM JST, the platform will stream a free, cast-led program focused on Eden Academy’s Class 1-3, then follow it up with a limited “official free channel” that marathons every episode from Season 1 through the latest Season 3 story.
Eden Academy’s Class 1-3 assembles for an ABEMA mission
The special, titled “SPY×FAMILY Operation ABEMA: Bus Jack Arc Pre-Finale Special,” gathers the kids of Eden Academy’s Class 1-3 right before the arc’s climax. Atsumi Tanezaki (Anya Forger), Natsumi Fujiwara (Damian Desmond), Emiri Kato (Becky Blackbell), Hana Sato (Emile Elman), and Haruka Okumura (Ewen Egeburg) will all appear, giving Bus Jack Arc fans a rare chance to watch the class cast bounce off each other outside of the anime itself.
Bus jack arc build-up with Anya, Damian and friends
Across the hour, the program looks back at standout scenes featuring Eden’s students, building hype for the arc’s final showdown without spoiling the destination. The cast will also tackle variety-style segments themed around the bus hijacking, plus a special version of the now-traditional “visual review” corner. This time, the five guests take on an illustration telephone game based on a predicted episode visual, turning Anya and her friends into live-drawing chaos.
Broadcast time, channel details and free viewing period
The special streams first on the ABEMA Anime Channel from 8:00–9:00 PM JST on Saturday, November 22, then gets an immediate encore on the SPY x FAMILY free channel starting at 10:00 PM. After broadcast, it will remain available to watch for free on ABEMA until 11:59 PM on December 31, 2025, giving fans plenty of time to drop in—even if their weekend plans are already full.
Marathon channel brings every SPY x FAMILY episode back
From November 22 at 10:00 PM through November 25 at 5:00 PM, ABEMA will reopen the official SPY x FAMILY free channel for a short run. Over those four days, the channel will cycle through Season 1 (episodes 1–25), Season 2 (26–37), and Season 3 (38–45) in big batches, so viewers can jump in at almost any hour and land in the middle of the Forgers’ mission-filled daily life.
Three-day watch plan for fans catching up or rewatching
Season 3 airs every Saturday at 11:30 PM JST on the ABEMA Anime 2 channel, and throughout the season, ABEMA is keeping Seasons 1–3 free on its on-demand video page as well. That means you can use the long weekend to binge the earlier missions on the dedicated channel, catch the Bus Jack Arc special live on November 22, and then roll straight into the latest episode broadcast. For schedules and region availability, check the ABEMA program listings and the official site at spy-family.net before you press play.
