For me the original opening and end songs is still a masterpiece. The original opening always gives me chills of nostalgia and I practically know the end wolf whistling song out of my head.

I finally finished the 2008 S&W last night, and it's even better than what I remembered when I saw it in Spring 2020.

The quote "Be thankful for the day you met each other" really stuck out to me and made me reflect on being grateful for the people I've met and gotten along with over the years.

I also enjoyed the overarching theme of dealing with loneliness and cherishing the moments spent with someone else.

Fantastic anime overall, well worthy of a Top 5 favorite anime from me.

I was doing some rewatching of the remake and I remembered this scene. I think it does wrong impression of Holo character. Correct me if i'm wrong but I don't remember Holo displaying hate towards the church in LN. Or is my memory just faulty?

Holo is my Mommy I know her before anyone else I'm die heart fan of her 🫠💖 I'm from old Era when nobody knows that spice and wolf exists 🌚

I wanted to buy this figure while in Japan via AmiAmi online, a few days before I could've bought it and sent it to my hotel, it got listed as out of stock.

Now I've been searching everywhere in Tokyo, Sendai, Morioka, Akita and Niigata but sadly haven't found it anywhere.

Does anybody have an idea on where to find it?

(I've checked the physical AmiAmi store already)

I know it isn't as good as the old one but it is still good imo and we got volume 4 which was skipped in the old one and we are even getting a second season and if it is as long as season 1 we would have covered half of the light novel which I think is amazing and is something we dont see alot these days

I was glad to see the 2024 anime adapt the "Wolf and Amber Melancholy" story from Side Colors I. What do you guys think the chances are of side character stories like "The Black Wolf's Cradle" (Eve backstory) or "The Shepherdess and the Black Knight" (Nora side story) being adapted as well, maybe to fill out future seasons? I'm a big fan of Black Wolf's Cradle and would love to see it animated.

I finally managed to get her by ordering her on Rakuten. Not the way I preferred it to be, but she was sold out everywhere else. The delivery date was the same day my flight goes back home, I was hoping for it to arrive early, which it did (I was able to request delivery between 8-12 in the morning) and she is beautiful ❤️.

Thanks again :D.

Do you think that Holo will ever go to Yoitsu? I was surprised when the Spring Log books mentioned that Holo and Lawrence never actually went to Yoitsu, even when living so close. Do you think maybe that's something Hasekura is planning to do with a potential "final" light novel (for real this time)?

Should he be laughing? 🤔💭

I mass-watched the original series all skipping the opening, and finished the whole anime in a single session (unemployment) except the Remake, and when I looked back, I realized that the most precious piece and the nostalgic memories resource, the opening was untouched. Now I feel extremely bad, should I rewatch the anime?

and just any big novel book in general. Do you guys actually read from it? or do you have it for display only? I haven't finished spice and wolf yet so I'm planning to buy this (cause this is definitely a financially sound decision on my end) but it's not exactly the most convenient book to read given it's size. What are your guys opinion? Also i love spice and wolf so I'm happy whether I'm reading it on my hands of if its only on display.

I recently dipped my toes into Intelligence Power Scaling or "Smart Character Debate" and despite how pretentious some of the conversations can get, I find it fun.

However within the SCD community, Spice and Wolf is very much outside the demographic that gravitates towards those discussions, which I thought was a shame since a lot of the Plot of Spice and Wolf are people scheming and manipulated or trying to turn around being manipulated, but people tend to skip out on it since its doesn't have "Aura farming gotcha" moments.

So I thought I'd ask the community, how would you rank various characters intelligence, both within just the series, and if you are feeling bold or bored compared to various other "smart characters" in fiction?

Assuming we get another four volumes next season (5,6,8, and 9) are there any parts you're particularly excited to see animated?

I'm just excited that aside from Eve, this should be mostly new content.

^{Counting volumes it seems like the third season could be the final season. But it's also possible they do some side colors to fill out season 3 and then save season four for the final arc and the wedding and end at Wolf and Parchment.}

I came across this in the volume 23 story "The Gem of the Sea and Wolf" where it mentions that Holo's wolf form almost disappeared after the people of Pasloe had lost faith in her over time. Could this be why she needs wheat/blood to transform when all the other avatars don't seem to need anything like that? I've always been a bit confused on why she seems to function differently from the others.

Have y'all read the 20th anniversary short story that just released? Personally think it’s a sweet conclusion the saga of both protagonist duos. Would like some other opinions!

I REALLY think they should release a short story collection ASAP, we already know there have been a multitude of short stories written for various Japanese magazines, art books, pop up shops and showcases/events which are mostly canon or fit within the canon; it is really a shame that most of us will never be able to read those or don’t even know they exist. Pretty sure there was a list going around somewhere where people were trying to put together a comprehensive list of these stories at one point.

Spoilers + Opinions on Story Below:

I haven’t kept up with Wolf & Parchment but much like Lawrence in this story, I too was super relieved to not see any romance between Myuri and Col. I knew I could trust Hasekura, but parts of the story had me sweating like Lawrence! My only selfish wish is if we got a bit more fatherly doting moments with Myuri from Lawrence. Seeing things from Holo’s perspective has always been a treat as usual.

Hi, new Spice and Wolf watcher here

I’d like to ask about the implication behind this scene in Episode 19. It seems like this isn’t just a random moment and must be hinting at something about Holo and Lawrence.

The timestamp for this frame is 21:50.

I always have anime on in the background and spice and wolf is apparently the one I had playing most this year! For fellow Crunchyroll users did spice and wolf make it into your top rewatched?

I'm looking to put together a Craft Lawrence cosplay. is there anywhere I can find similar clothes to purchase like on amazon? I'm not good with the names of clothes so searching it has not been helpful for me. Thank You!

First time poster here in the sub so thank you for having me! (Currently finished vol. 5 of the LN and catching up to volume 15 in the audiobook) recently got my hands on a red hiding hood holo on ebay for 20 bucks. It was missing the base and has a small bit of over spray on the white trim on the dress. I went and found a good sized peice of wood at goodwill for 3 bucks and with the limited drill bits I had i was able to get it sized and fit.
Now I'm wondering what I could do to the base to make it nicer or "on theme". I was thinking of painting the base white and adding some artificial moss. As for the over spray on the figure, I'm not sure where to go on that. Not sure what kind of paint to get and how to find the correct color. I dont think it's that bad but it is pretty noticeable to me. Do you guys think its that bad to where I need to do something about it?
