It's been awhile since I have watched an episode and then it just suddenly ends when I thought there was more left. I was so drawn in by this episode, loved every second of it. Nice setup for next episode too.

Cute episode. I wonder what's wrong with Nora. I think she may have a natural affinity with animals (why she's good at shepherding) but any wiff of special abilities among the church and rumors of OMG witch! get started with her. At least I hope so. I like her and hope she's not really evil. Also, it would get old if every pretty girl Lawrence runs into turns out to be evil.

Chloe isn't evil, just greedy. Nora doesn't give me the evil vibe, and I'm looking forward to find out what's up with her and her "Witch" rumors (I'll be surprised if she isn't the rumored "witch").

Actually, did you know that the story of "Wolf and Spice" came from a very successful light novel? Both Manga and Anime are based on an actual book series:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spice_and_Wolf

By the way, I know this threads are about the Anime-Version. But I just found the source for the Manga-Version *hehe*. And guess what: In my opinion Horo is even cuter in Manga-format *thinking of Horos tail and cuddling a bushy feather duster*.
So if you want to know, "push the button"!



But beware: The last Manga-Episode include spoiler about the future of the story. I couldnt resist and read it all. Now Im pretty sure that there will be a second season for "Wolf and Spice".... *happy*

Well I must say that I hope there is a second season too. I read about the Spice and Wolf mangas somewhere and decided to check them out. I enjoyed what was translated already and decided to give the anime a shot. I am glad I did and Horo had to be added to my favorites. ^_^

i think nora is probably the mage mentioned in the rumors and she (or her dog) did something that scared the townspeople. the church is probably planning to use her as a weapon or something, otherwise they would have already burned her at the stake.

i'm a bit curious about why the government officials thought he shouldn't have brought that armor tho. i think its prolly related to that guy at the end.

It's explained in the Ayako release that the Church has been monitoring her because they're suspicious of any female shepherd with such impressive skills. I'm pretty sure she's a good character.

never considered her as an evil character tbh, its much more likely that lawerence and horo will wind up rescuing her from the church at some point imo.

Another great episode. Lawrence & Horo have great chemistry. I love how balanced Horo is, even though Lawrence ignores her for Nora. I have suspicious feelings about Nora at this point, though. I'll have to see what happens in the next episode. ^.^

Though Horo's quite cute too. Especially when she gets a bit jealous.

I quite liked the episode, it had a nice pacing actually.
Apart from the lovely background, I'm not too impressed with the animation though...I'm oscillating between "Horo looks soo cute!" and "Hm. Looks as if it was animated in a rush."
Oh my, but maybe that's just me. =D

Enek was cute :3

Ooooh, jealous Horo is really a sight to see. :D

Also, some mysterious characters showed up. Like that sheperd, and the hunter in the ending scene. Wonder who those people are.

The usual, Horo was awesome in this episode. There hasn't any episode where she wasn't awesome. :P

Yeah, it's official this show has some of the best dialogue I've seen in anime. The scene with Lawrence talking bad about wolves with Horo right beside him, in particular. Great stuff.

I wonder what this arc is all about. It seems that there is a new villain. I still want to know what is the problem with that new girl. Holo looked adorable with her jealousy.

Hopefully, the church is not abusing her or something.

I've seen some subs refer to her as Horo, and some subs refer to her as Holo, but in one episode she signs a contract as Holo. Why do people insist on calling her Horo??!

Her name is Holo. People call her Horo because that's how the original Japanese cast pronounce her name. As you may know, the Japanese cannot pronounce their ls correctly.

Horo and Lawrence's jealousy games are awesome XD. Nora seemed way too moeblob for my liking , i just hope that everyone hiding from her and the angry guy from the church are indeed hints that she isn't as innocent as she seems ..

The interaction between Lawrence and Horo is just awesome. :) So entertaining -- never gets old or boring it seems.

Yep, thought so. There IS something up with Nora. That guy in the church didn't smile or anything when he saw her though so I'm guessing her relationship with the church isn't some blissful, happy relationship filled with flowers and rainbows.

Interesting end to the episode... Curious about who that guy at the end was. D: Onto the next episode to find out~~
