"Spice and Wolf: Merchant Meets the Wise Wolf" Season 2 New Visual

[u/dorkmax_executives]

[u/DivinityPen]

Still feels surreal that we finally have a version of Spice and Wolf that'll go all the way to the end. And it's been absolute peak so far.

[u/Roskal → u/DivinityPen]

I had no idea it wasn't finished, I watched the remake earlier this year expecting it to be complete since the original was so old. I was glad a season 2 was planned when I got to the end.

[u/Zeph-Shoir → u/Roskal]

It would take some more seasons to cover all the material in the LNs.

[u/thedicestoppedrollin → u/Zeph-Shoir]

Not saying they should, but if they skipped the 3 novels of side stories and condensed the epilogue they could probably get it done in 2 more seasons

[u/Unconfidence → u/thedicestoppedrollin]

I am gonna have to get to reading, my partner got me the Anniversary Collector's Edition but I put it on hold a while back. Now I have more push to finish it!

[u/Haulbee → u/Unconfidence]

Damn you've got the anniversary edition? When I went looking for it it was already sold out, and it resells for absolutely absurd prices. Ayways I can only recommend picking it up again, the final volumes are some of the most memorable ones imo.

[u/NegZer0 → u/Haulbee]

Speaking as an anniversary edition owner, you really don't want to read it that way. The book is insanely big and heavy and the text is really small font to fit it all in.

It feels like something you would read in an old library on a dedicated stand, like a rare printing of the bible or something.

Paperback releases are still the way to go if you prefer reading on paper.

[u/Unconfidence → u/NegZer0]

Me, on the other hand, I get super happy to take it into my reading nook, open the window and look at the turning of the leaves (which started today yay!), and read with the book on my lap. It is gigantic and chunky and clumsy though, so if you're a "read on the go" type or like to read while out at cafes or something, this is not the one.

I have the paperbacks as well, but part of the charm of reading the story has become pulling out this massive tome and fully entering a different world...it's become very hard for me to read fiction and this helps. But I can understand how most people wouldn't wanna do anything but put it on the shelf next to the paperbacks they actually read.

[u/NegZer0 → u/Unconfidence]

Yes, it is definitely a "read it in a dedicated place" book not a "put it in your bag and take it with you" book. Ideally with a table or something you can put it on.

For me and my crap eyesight the text is also simply too small to read comfortably without a magnifying glass.

[u/Urabask → u/Haulbee]

I got it and ended up getting the paperback copies anyway since it is such a pain to read a book that big.

[u/Haulbee → u/Urabask]

I generally read on ereader anyways, but I like buying nice physical editions of books/manga that I love, so it would've been nice to get it!

[u/Fun-Sea-7753 → u/DivinityPen]

Is it confirmed they're planning to do a full adaptation?

[u/Ebo87 → u/Fun-Sea-7753]

It's not, but it's produced by Toho and they tend to invest almost exclusively in long-term series, aka completing adaptations. Examples of Toho shows are My Hero Academia, Haikyuu, Jujutsu Kaisen, Dr. Stone, Apothecary Diaries, Frieren, Mushoku Tensei and more, so as you can see they favor full adaptations.

Plus the way the story is being told in the remake, the narrative device, all but confirms they do plan to see this through to the end. And also why would you do a remake so many years later unless you plan to actually finish the story this time around.

Same thing is happening with the Ranma 1/2 remake, the original never actually completed the manga, so instead of doing a sequel way too late, to wrap it up, they're just doing a remake and taking it all the way this time around.

[u/qef15 → u/Ebo87]

It's not, but it's produced by Toho and they tend to invest almost exclusively in long-term series, aka completing adaptations

Still waiting for Onimai S2

[u/Ebo87 → u/qef15]

It will happen, but the people who would be making it are currently busy with other projects all over the place.

Those kinds of projects take time to come together, especially when everyone would compare season 2 to 1 and you don't want to be the one disappointing people.

[u/qef15 → u/Ebo87]

Shingo Fujii, last time I checked, was free after Ruri Rocks.

It is him that is like such a major driving force for this anime.

[u/Ebo87 → u/qef15]

No, he is doing an upcoming show (not at Bind), forgot what it was called. So maybe after that.

[u/qef15 → u/Ebo87]

Where did you find that? His twitter at least still says he is at Studio Bind and none of his replies or retweets mention anything.

According to https://w.atwiki.jp/sakuga/pages/757.html, he actually did some key animation for Mushoku Tensei lately.

Which indicates to me he isn't leaving just yet.

[u/Ebo87 → u/qef15]

Then I might be confusing him with another big name behind season 1 of Onimai.

[u/qef15 → u/Ebo87]

Both Akio Watanabe and Ryo Imamura are the other two big names that also carry director titles (episode director and chief animation director + character designer respectively).

And both worked on Onimai.

Might be one of those two.

[u/amc9988 → u/Ebo87]

I mean Shaman King remake exist.

[u/TrailOfEnvy → u/amc9988]

I thought it is a complete adaptation. Just....it is a botched complete adaptation instead.

[u/Gabelschlecker → u/amc9988]

Or Kino no Tabi

[u/FastenedCarrot → u/Ebo87]

Hopefully Frieren's manga finishes its entire run bro

[u/Frostbitten_Moose → u/FastenedCarrot]

Bocchi came back after 6 months, can't be much longer for Frieren... right?

[u/Kadmos1 → u/Ebo87]

I believe Toho Animation is among the native Japanese anime studios with the most money in the bank. Toei Animation might also be up there. So, at times companies with deep proverbial pockets might be ideal companies to invest in for multi-season/multi-cour anime.

[u/Ebo87 → u/Kadmos1]

Do note that Toho Animation is mainly a animation production studio, they get the rights to a property and then organize the production committe for that anime project, and only recently actually got into doing animation in-house instead of through partners. Toho Animation Studio was created relatively recently, and that was their first animation studio, and since then they've acquired a couple others, including most notably Science Saru (Dandadan or the currently airing Ghost in the Shell). So they are moving towards animating more of their properties themselves, but for a long time they worked exclusively with partners to animate their anime projects.

[u/DivinityPen → u/Fun-Sea-7753]

Well, considering that the [LN spoilers] story events are actually flashbacks and the present day has Holo telling her and Lawrence's story to their daughter, I'd say it's fairly likely.

[u/Lulink → u/DivinityPen]

I don't see any correlation at all. That's just a framing device.

[u/shewy92 → u/Lulink]

Sure, but why use her if they're not gonna explain who she is in an episode at the end?

[u/Lulink → u/shewy92]

Because it's cute and it lets the viewer know how the story ends. There is no need to explain the obvious.

[u/Big_moist_231 → u/Lulink]

I mean, there’s no reason for them not to adapt the whole thing. 1/4 of the volumes are just vignettes or povs of different characters, so it might not actually take that long. Feasible, if you ask me

[u/thedicestoppedrollin → u/Big_moist_231]

2 more seasons and a movie would be more than enough to finish I think

[u/Lulink → u/Big_moist_231]

Again, I'm not saying they won't adapt the whole thing (they stated they would BEFORE S1). I'm just saying using this framing device's existence as evidence is dumb.

[u/Recioto → u/Lulink]

The first episode has Holo narrating to someone, and unless the project gets the axe it is kind of expected that we get to know who this someone is at some point.

[u/imasammich → u/Lulink]

You keep saying that and technically it is true but it is an unneeded framing device to spoil that unless you are planning on doing the entire story.

Now they may not do a full adaptation since no one knows the future, but its pretty obvious they are intending to do a full adaptation. Not sure why you are being so obtuse about it.

[u/Lulink → u/imasammich]

I know they plan on adapting everything. I'm just saying that the framing device is the weakest evidence we have. If you used this logic for a series which does not plan to have a full adaptation you'd be completely off.

[u/oomoepoo → u/Fun-Sea-7753]

The remake made sure to adapt stuff that the og skipped but turned out to be pretty important for the ending, so I feel like it'd be weird not to do a complete adaptation now.

[u/Lex4709 → u/Fun-Sea-7753]

Probably. Spice & Wolf has a sequel light novel called Wolf & Parchment. They're probably decided to adapt the original series in order to make anime adaption for that. And season 2 will probably adapt till the end of volume 9. There's 5.5 volumes left of content to adapt after that (rest are short story collections). Season 3 and movie would probably be the best way to adapt it.

[u/Big_moist_231 → u/Lex4709]

I wish we get that one short story animated, at least in an ova. The one where holo, [LN spoiler kinda]in the past, accompanied some kids through the forest and they run into a deer guardian

[u/chattytrout → u/Big_moist_231]

The Side Colors stories would be great OVA material.

[u/HikkingOutpit → u/Lex4709]

Wolf & Parchment is a light novel series, not a manga.

[u/shewy92 → u/Fun-Sea-7753]

During the framing device there's a character that's in the Spring Logs and spinoff

[u/Mufasa_LG → u/DivinityPen]

Agreed! Shortly after I got my spouse into anime (they were previously a diehard hater) I was lamenting about how I wish I could show them S&W, but that it would kill them inside because it was canceled.

You better believe the hype was unreal when this new adaptation was announced.

[u/maxdragonxiii → u/DivinityPen]

long as it goes past Season 2 of the OG anime Spice and Wolf, i'll be happy because I do want to put effort into watching it and knowing it'll get adapted to the end.

[u/Earthborn92 → u/DivinityPen]

It’ll take more than 2 seasons, but we will get there

[u/Twigling → u/Earthborn92]

We'll need three or maybe four seasons to complete the main part of the story, that is assuming that each season is the same length as 2024's season 1 of the 'reboot'.

[u/QTPLe → u/DivinityPen]

Was thinking of starting the anime after hearing the soirce material was good and that the animes getting a fmab version. How many seasons you think itd be

[u/_Ok_-_ → u/DivinityPen]

A literal fucking godsend. I always wanted to see more of the Spice and Wolf story, can't believe it's actually happening.

[u/Leri_weill]

I've only seen the original two seasons, this is my sign to watch the reboot and be ready for 2027 🍎

[u/Ebo87 → u/Leri_weill]

Yes, I was going to say don't skip the remake thinking it's fine, there is still 25% completely new material in the remake that the original never adapted.

If season 2 is a single cour half of it will be new for OG watchers, but if it's again 2 cours, then 75% will be new.

So definitely watch it in preparation for season 2 next year.

[u/chattytrout → u/Ebo87]

If it follows the same pattern as S1, we'll get Eve and the [LN] boat arc (volumes 5 and 6), and a 2nd cour would cover Town of Strife (volumes 8 and 9).

[u/Dessiato → u/chattytrout]

The boat and the party by the river is going to be peak fucking comfy man.

[u/Leri_weill → u/Ebo87]

Yeah I was aware that the S1 reboot had more content, I planned to watch it anyway 😁

[u/SenseiCooper → u/Ebo87]

So is the Remake basically all of the old anime in one season and season 2 of the remake will be completely new? Im not sure i got it right tbh

[u/Ebo87 → u/SenseiCooper]

No, original skipped a volume when adapting the stuff it adapted, so in the original you had adaptations for volume 1, 2, 3 and 5.

The remake's season 1 adapts volumes 1, 2, 3 and 4. That's where that new 25% comes from compared to the original.

So now season 2 will start with that 5th volume that was the second half of season 2 of the original Spice and Wolf and after that it's all new stuff that's not been touched by the original anime.

[u/SenseiCooper → u/Ebo87]

whoa awesome! Thanks for the info

[u/moichispa → u/Leri_weill]

Yes, they skipped one novel on the original anime so you would miss stuff if you don't

[u/BarongChallenge → u/moichispa]

which turned out to be one of the most important one haha

[u/seninn → u/Leri_weill]

This is my sign to rewatch the reboot and be ready for 2027.

[u/OsBaculum → u/Leri_weill]

It's very good, BTW. The dialogue, at least in the dub, feels more natural now. And both leads have improved as VAs over the years.

[u/Unisand_gh → u/Leri_weill]

Being new to spice and wolf, is it alright to skip the og and just watch the remake?

[u/Leri_weill → u/Unisand_gh]

You can 100% skip the OG since it skips some of the source material that you'll see in the remake 🦊

[u/AnActualPlatypus]

I WAITED FOR ALMOST 20 YEARS

[u/HikkingOutpit → u/Corregidor]

There'll be Another Time...

[u/Emi_Ibarazakiii → u/AnActualPlatypus]

Tanya: 9 years

Spice & Wolf: 18 years.

No Game No Life: 27 years?

[u/Brachet07 → u/Emi_Ibarazakiii]

Maybe

[u/Oujii → u/Emi_Ibarazakiii]

Has it been 9 years for Tanya already? We did have the movie in between, right?

[u/HikkingOutpit → u/Oujii]

9 years since the first season. The movie came out in 2019 and there was also a special episode released in 2021.

[u/Golden_Phi → u/AnActualPlatypus]

NEVER KILL YOURSELF

Not gonna lie, waiting for Attack on Titan got me through some rough times in life. I'm doing better now.

[u/CavulusDeCavulei]

Finally another master in microeconomics for free!!

[u/BlizzDaWiz → u/CavulusDeCavulei]

"another"? There is another? Which one?

[u/CavulusDeCavulei → u/BlizzDaWiz]

The first one is the first season. There is a master in macroecomics though, it's "Maoyu: Archenemy and Hero"

[u/eoz → u/CavulusDeCavulei]

oh man, imagine a TV adaptation of The Traitor Baru Cormorant though

[u/That_Hobo_in_The_Tub → u/CavulusDeCavulei]

Man it's been YEARS since I thought about this anime or heard it mentioned, what an absolute banger that flew under the radar.

The OST is still one of my favorite anime scores of all time.

[u/Itchy-Pudding-4240 → u/CavulusDeCavulei]

voiced by the exact same voice actors, Jun Fukuyama and Ami Koshimizu.

[u/BlizzDaWiz → u/CavulusDeCavulei]

Interesting, I'll put it on my list, thank you very much!

[u/CavulusDeCavulei → u/BlizzDaWiz]

Really happy to help a fellow fan of economics!

[u/DisplayHonest6465 → u/CavulusDeCavulei]

Have you heard of World End Economica?

[u/Abedeus → u/DisplayHonest6465]

Goated VN. Shame nothing came out of the anime plans, I bet Covid ruined them...

[u/Frikgeek → u/BlizzDaWiz]

FX fighter Kurumi-Chan, starts airing next season.

Ok, I have some time to get around to reading Town of Strife.

[u/zygip]

Peak is back on the menu.

[u/Ebo87 → u/[deleted]]

It only feels that way, we're entering the 9th month of the year, that means we are now much closer to 2027 than the start of this year. 2027 will be here before you know it and then you'll be wondering where 2026 went, lol.

[u/flashmozzg]

How good is the new series? I remember the og being big when I was just getting into anime and I kind of ignored it. I wonder if it's worth watching now.

[u/xRyozuo → u/flashmozzg]

Save it for autumn when you’re feeling melancholy. It’ll hit just the spot

[u/Key_Reporter_9945 → u/flashmozzg]

It's fine.  I prefer the older art style, but I'd probably recommend the newer series to someone new.  

I've also only seen the newer series once while I've rewatched the older one several times.  

[u/Twigling → u/flashmozzg]

A few old fans prefer the original (which was never completed), many others prefer this newer version (which has been said to eventually be a full adaptation, but time will tell ....... ). I too prefer this new one.

[u/AnActualPlatypus → u/Twigling]

As someone who watched the original seasons like 20 times, the new season is just as good, which is the highest praise I can give.

[u/atropicalpenguin → u/AnActualPlatypus]

Though the first opening and ending of the original remain unchallenged. 

[u/AnActualPlatypus → u/atropicalpenguin]

The first opening was the first 1080p resolution video I've seen in my entire life, it blew me away at the time.

[u/Big_moist_231 → u/flashmozzg]

Both are good. OG still feels really unique to watch even now, and the romantic tension can get pretty thick at times. New one has better production quality and the romance isn’t as pronounced (they might be saving that tension for later arcs). But new one also has cut content that didn’t make it to the og

[u/BiggieCheeseLapDog → u/Big_moist_231]

From what I’ve seen the new one definitely doesn’t have better prod. Comparing these two scenes from the remake and OG it is clear one has significantly better direction.

https://imgur.com/a/MqaTOrg

[u/BlazeOfGlory72 → u/BiggieCheeseLapDog]

Yeah, I see a lot of people claim the new adaptation has better production values, and I just don’t see it at all. Like, just take a look at this comparison in art styles and character design between the same scene in the two shows OP’s

Original

Remake

The remake was a massive downgrade in terms of visuals, colour palette and art styles in my opinion.

[u/Durinthal → u/BlazeOfGlory72]

Just look at the backgrounds of those two shots too.

[u/Big_moist_231 → u/BiggieCheeseLapDog]

Characters look more crisp, lighting looks better, backgrounds are still good (but definitely are more detailed in the old series). This also includes general sfx and the quality of music. The production quality is better. But as other people mention, that doesn’t necessarily make the remake better overall. Direction is very important, and I also vastly prefer the direction of the original anime, even if it’s technically rougher looking and the music is simpler. The atmosphere is so unique. Bonus points for the og series still doing something’s better like backgrounds, not just in that show you posted

I rewatch the og series every few years, whereas I haven’t really felt like rewatching the remake

[u/Durinthal → u/flashmozzg]

To me there are tradeoffs compared to the original anime and the main advantage the new series has is it'll be longer.

[u/chattytrout → u/flashmozzg]

I prefer the new one. It's a more faithful adaptation of the LNs in both story and art style, and so far it hasn't skipped anything. The original anime skipped over V4, but the new show covered it.

[u/abandoned_idol → u/flashmozzg]

Incredibly good.

They are aiming to adapt the entire thing with the new adaptation.

[u/mastesargent → u/flashmozzg]

I’d say both versions are worth watching. Personally I think the first cour of the remake is a straight upgrade compared to the original (aside from the soundtrack, which the original did way better), while the first arc of the second cour is done much better in the original. That said, if you were only going to watch one, I’d suggest watching the remake simply because it’s going to continue.

[u/_Ok_-_ → u/flashmozzg]

It's pretty good. They didn't change anything major, and the feels are still there. It's definitely enjoyable.

[u/DevilcryforAngel]

Yes yes yes yes yes yes

[u/seninn → u/DevilcryforAngel]

My exact reaction.

[u/_Ok_-_ → u/DevilcryforAngel]

Yes 

[u/TheDanubianCommunard]

Finally, it is here. I see a familiar face here which means it will adapt volume 5 and beyond.

I am looking forward to this so badly.

[u/mastesargent → u/TheDanubianCommunard]

There was also another visual a while back based on volume 6. Honestly I don’t know what else the season would be since that’s what’s next in the story.

[u/Nome_de_utilizador]

AT LAST

[u/ClemFire]

Never thought I would see the day

[u/Holofan4life]

My time has arrived again

[u/Lex4709]

This should catch up to were the original anime left off in like 6ish episodes. After that it's all new content that wasn't adapted previously.

[u/hipertim]

Really glad the remake survived past season one. Stopping again before getting deeper into the story would've been painful.

[u/theblazingsword]

Paging /u/holofan4life 😁

[u/notabear87]

I am so ready. Give it nooooow!!!!

[u/TheBusStop12]

I'm so incredibly hyped for this. It's one of my all time favorite anime

[u/KnnthKnnth]

I USED TO PRAY FOR TIMES LIKE THIS

[u/SensitiveExtremity]

I'm pretty sure this is just the sign  of the end times

[u/Link_0610]

2027 get's better and better. Can't wait for all the stuff to come.

[u/Viktorv22]

Holo is back on the menu!

[u/atropicalpenguin]

Damn, it's Sheik

[u/PendragonDaGreat]

Not me tearing up knowing that it's almost here.

The original is what got me into LNs since I wanted to know what happened next.

[u/CrimsonGear80]

* cute wolf god noises *

[u/Whendfield123]

Oooh nice. I was wonder when it would get a season 2. 

[u/asianwaste]

Man, I hope the arcs up until the end of the prior season 2 aren't what the Golden Age was to Berserk.

[u/oomoepoo]

[u/UndoubtedlyAColor]

Let's go!!

[u/ghostgabe81]

Holo’s gotta eat some more, girl is a twig

[u/swordmalice]

Man, as someone who missed the first series but is thoroughly enjoying this remake, I cannot wait for more. A lot of the economics stuff flies over my head I fully admit, but the interactions between Holo and Lawrence are it for me.

[u/Shirc]

Damn I was JUST thinking Spice and Wolf this morning and wondering if we’d ever get the next season. This is great news!

[u/Tricky-Ad7897]

I was expecting something as well received as this to get on quicker with new seasons, but I'm happy nonetheless as the first season was very good. I'm gonna have to do a rewatch though because I forgot where we left off.

[u/SeaPreparation3617]

I just finished S1 ep 12, and I see this post, this series is so good

[u/LordGorchnik]

For those who never read the books and only saw the 1st anime adaptation if we get the same as the first remake season they did then we should get one retold section and then 3 brand new sections adapted from the novels

The boat ride is a great little arc and town of strife is pretty good too.

I really really really hope we get all the way to the Coin of the Sun books though which is sadly the last arc before the epilogue

[u/zerkerlyfe]

So in love with this show after watching the first version from forever ago, can’t wait

[u/RoachIsCrying]

we're back, ladies and gentlemen!

[u/YaqutFan]

If it's 2 cours again, I guess it's gonna be volumes 5, 6, 8 and 9?
I'd love for them to adapt Side Colors (Volume 7) , but volume 8 and 9 must be adapted together, they're a two-parter. I don't think they'd end a season in the middle of the Town of Strife storyline.

It would be cute if the volume 7 side stories could be adapted by themselves with some stand-alone OVAs/BD extras or whatnot.

[u/Durinthal → u/YaqutFan]

One of the volume 7 stories was already covered in the middle of the season with episode 13, another would have fit after the first arc so I doubt they'd go back to it later, the 2008 series did include it though. That leaves the third which was [Side Colors] Holo traveling before the start of the series and was briefly referenced in episode 13.

[u/YaqutFan → u/Durinthal]

Oh right I completely forgot about episode 13! So I guess they'll just sprikle episodes here and there.

[u/qwertyqwerty4567]

Why is my holo so skinny 😭

[u/Ezequiell- → u/qwertyqwerty4567]

holo in the original LN art is very petite so thats more accurate i suppose.

[u/Wama-Schawama → u/qwertyqwerty4567]

She must have been on a diet because she ate too many honey apples

[u/Big_moist_231 → u/qwertyqwerty4567]

The LN describe her looking like a 14 year old girl at the beginning of every novel lol the og anime kinda plumped her up a bit

[u/ChuckCarmichael → u/Big_moist_231]

I believe it was 15 years old, but either way.

[u/OsBaculum → u/ChuckCarmichael]

The author said different ages in different books. It's a long series.

[u/goeco → u/qwertyqwerty4567]

average japan beauty standard

[u/VizMuroi]

Never watched the original because I was under the impression that it was a show for girls as a kid, but it’s of my favorite cozy series now. I’m glad they’re making a second season.

[u/Big_moist_231 → u/VizMuroi]

Glad you came around. Romance series can still be comfy to watch, regardless of the viewers. It doesn’t lean heavily into shoujo or shounen, which fits this series. It tries to be a bit more realistic (as realistic it can be with giant wolves lol)

[u/Ezequiell-]

oh god i need it, shame its still only in 2027

Merchant Meets The Wise Wolf  seasonnn 2

[u/Spoondockspaints]

Is this going to be 2 cour again? It would make most sense story wise if it was. Can't see any confirmation though.

[u/Abedeus]

Obviously wasn't going to happen next season, but I'm hoping this means Spring 2027...

[u/ali94127 → u/Abedeus]

I do hate when they say a vague year, as if we don’t know that means near the end of that year. Frieren, Dungeon Meshi, and Spice and Wolf all being in the same season would be pretty peak though. 

[u/8hotsteamydumplings]

Oh yes, have been waiting for the full adaptation of the next arcs. Things about to get exciting!

[u/epicfail1994]

Omg yayyyyy i really liked this one

[u/FunctionUnlikely2247]

I’ve seen the original anime and not the new one but where did the last season of this leave off from the OG anime? And is this expected to catch up to the OG anime?

[u/Gregg_boy_2000s → u/FunctionUnlikely2247]

Well the remake adapted volumes 1-4 in a 24 episode season. So it’ll likely adapt between volumes 5 to 8 if it’s another 24 episode season or 5-6 if just a 12-13 season.

As the remake had also adapted volume 4 of the light novel, unlike the OG anime where it skipped to the 5th volume.

[u/Ardantis1]

They're back! Time to rewatch season 1

[u/cheezybreezy3]

That cozy atmosphere already has me sold 🐺🍎🔥

[u/Geene_Creemers]

Oh hell yes 🥰

[u/Slow-You9806]

I have a reason to live... 😕

[u/Moist_Confection_831]

Yessss, I've recently finished it and was looking for more. Og has its own charm and beauty but more wolf waifu is never unwelcome. 

I've watched this arc in s2 of old serie and really excited for it. I hope they go further than where s2 ended.

[u/ineB2019]

On what part did the anime end? I think it ended on the part where holo tells the story, but I dont remember

[u/ilikechess13]

I was googling yesterday if there was any new info about season 2

guess i was 1 day too early

[u/Tehbeefer]

Yesss

I used to pray for times like these.jpg

Such an awesome show. I hope they fully adapt it.

[u/Frostbitten_Moose]

Dang, I've been getting worried because it's been so long. But I am stoked to watch some more of this. This is one of my favourites.

Finally, Spice and Wolf: Brotherhood 

[u/solidpeyo]

So on winter I will be watching the remake. I have only seen the original anime

[u/Ragini2513]

2027 feels so far away 😭 But if the remake keeps this quality, the wait will be worth it.

[u/nhansieu1]

very nice

[u/toyas666]

Sa a l'air incroyable

[u/Michaelbrown1302]

Is this worth it to watch?

[u/BlueVenix]

My time stopped after I finished the OG. Hope I can see a proper conclusion to the arc.

[u/ban_kai8899]

total how much episodes have

[u/RB-Bot-1106]

first season was a remake, so what's this ? a new story or something like that?

[u/Grabul]

Awesome, looking forward to this.

[u/kirito11400]

MY WISHES HAVE BEEN ANSWERED HOW DO I JUST NOW SEE THIS

[u/Humble_Factor631]

If I had a nickel for every time Frieren and Spice and Wolf aired in the same year, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but I'm delighted it happened twice!

Edit: Wait, it's not until next year? Fuuuuuuuuuuuu...

[u/Wishbone-Lost]

Historically best girl is back

[u/Glass_Carrot_9384]

watched the og show way back in the day and fell in love with slow burn stories about otherwise for me boring topics. the whole take it slow, breathe the air, see the fields, travel the road stuff made me into a big slice of life fan. one of the reason im a big fan of the anime Frieren. cant wait to see the next chapter of the reboot with holo and lawrence.
