Action, Comedy, Slice of Life Why it’s popular: It is the feel-good hit of the decade. It appeals to everyone: little kids, grandparents, and hardcore action fans. The Pitch: A spy must build a fake family for a mission. He adopts a telepathic daughter (who knows he is a spy) and marries a woman who is secretly an assassin. None of them know each other's secrets. Recommendation: Watch the anime. It is a perfect adaptation.
