Good episode and a pretty good ending. Hope they continue with a second season because lawrence and horo together are a brilliant pair.

overall awesome series and the economic approach is a nice change from the usual anime, let alone the usual romance anime

It's over! Nuuuuuuuuuuuu! >_<

The ending was nice, but not superb. Still, I think everything managed to end up nicely, there weren't any blatant loose ends hanging around. I think it's funny that Horo used to do all the teasing, now Lawrence managed to learn and tease her too, but the one who got teased the most with the ending was me! I was SO SURE they would kiss when she asked for some air ^^ Oh well, can't say I didn't like it that way though =p

This was a great series for me. I started out just a little curious, so I left it on my plan to watch list so I could see it after it aired. When the sixth episode came out, however, I couldn't hold myself and started to watch. It didn't take much after that for me to become hopelessly addicted =p Loved the main characters, especially Horo, who I simply adored in a way I can't describe ^_^ The story was great, very unique, and had it's share of comedy, action, romance and drama. The animation and music were excellent. I don't think I can complain about any aspect of it ^^

I'll certainly give it a 10/10, and I think I'll also renormalise my scores a little, so Ookami to Koushinryou can have a higher place in my list. Yeah, I liked it THAT much =p

Eagerly waiting until May, and desperately hoping for news confirming a second season.

It was a pretty good episode, although I didn't like it as much as the previous one. Still, lots of good moments.

Overall it was a great series. The trading talk got a little stale every now and then, but it still gets a solid 8/10 from me. :D

8/10 in the end
End was done well but still... the story feels kind of abrupt ended.
This definitely needs a second session.

Don't want to translate it now, maybe will do when the dvd episode is out.

This is a great series and I am sad I didn't get to see my kiss. The way it ended you definitely feel like they are planning to do a second season. Now we just have to wait and see.

I want to add that I was quite happy with how much Lawrence has grown and was able to accept Horo in her wolf form.

I think everyone needs more Horo, it will be sad if I don't get to see my favorite character again.

What did they mean when Horo fought the other wolves? When she said that she solved it in a "mature" way.

Horo begged the other wolves to let them pass safely [or leave them alone]. You could see the camera pan to her knees, which were covered in mud. She got on her knees to beg, which obviously did not make her happy because she has a lot of pride.

I enjoyed the series a lot. 9/10 because you can say Horo faster

I think we can safely rule out the other option, since Horo madly corrected Lawrence when the idea crossed his mind. She was willing to lower her pride, but not to that extent.

from the first ep (which was kinda slow) i always thought "hey.. it might be interesting... and every ep from thereon got more exciting and interesting until i had completely fallen for it. Horo is teh win and i got the same feeling of emptiness and joy when i realized this was the last ep as with all my favourite animes... 11/10

A pretty good episode overall, the wolf part was pretty awesome (though if that wanted to include some action, I wish she had fought those "youngster" wolves). But, since when did Lawrence have complete toleration of her wolf form, I mean that episode (don't remember the number) showed him get used to it at that moment, but I still think the transition would still freak him out a bit (I know I could never get used to the idea of a gigantic wolf let alone a cute girl transforming into one).

The series maintains its quality throughout, so a 9/10 for it.

I didn't "discover" Wolf and Spice untill the third epi. But, just on that one viewing, I was hooked. I too hope for a 2nd season. Got to agree, It does appear completly open for a second season.

Same score, same opinion.

Too bad second seasons often don't come unless there's tons of material to work with (like Holic). Well, on to the novels, although it might be a while still until I can read them legibly. ^^

I think thats why she said close your eyes. It seems like he's grown accustom to her wolf form. It shows he trusts her more now then he did before.

It's funny seeing Horo try and get Lawrence to confess his love to her and him toying with her even more. I wonder how things will turn out for them when they finally reach their destination. We known they like each other but she's already admitted that humans and wolfs cant coexisting because of age and because of her being a non human. I hope theres a happy ending :D.

Overall very good series with an unusual theme (commerce) and an unusual female lead character (Horo) who is the main attraction of the series in my opinion. Too bad the animation is awful and the plot seems quite episodic sometimes. But the main characters and the opening/ending are so great that we can somewhat overlook these weaknesses. Moreover, there's still room for a second season, so it's all good.

9/10

In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same.

Also, great episode, even if it were a bit rushed. As everyone else, I am impatiently waiting for S2 :) Also liked how it was left open ended. It COULD just end there and still be good, but I am hoping the greed of the producers inspires them to make another season ;)

Here's to an S2!

I don't understand why you aren't allowed to set this to complete until the release of the DVD only episode. Can't the anime itself be changed to 13/14 instead of 13/13? Makes no sense to have 13/13 and still be on 'watching'.

I've got to disagree there. This isn't an action show, so the animation's fine. Spotty at times, but certainly not awful...

Great episode, and great series.

Although i would have liked it to finish with 1series, and they live happily ever after :)

And on a side note, i cant mark it complete becouse the DVD episode doesnt come out for afew months? .. it most likely doesnt even have anything to do with the story.

at first description, i was turned off because of the merchant thing etc. but i gave it a chance for some reason and lo...a 9/10 show! what kept me from giving this a 10 was the merchant/trading parts where i got lost..maybe because of the subs(was using BSS..was ayako's clearer?) or maybe im just a noob -_-

like the one in that last ep...i didn't quite get the thing about the gold. i was confused with all the numbers lawrence was blabbering about(6 thousand? 400? 600?) from what i could understand...he "tricked" nora into continuing to smuggle the gold because simply taking it wasnt enough right? and so how much did they get all in all?

and what was the five hundred rumione he was talking about? he was selling the gold back to remerio? well in any case, i was lost there but yeah, the show was still good.

OH. and before i forget. no kiss! :( T_T horo was soooooooooooo cute when she was running after lawrence when he said "however.." and she was waiting for his answer XD "uh..uh..oh..ma..matte!" just so cute i melted XD

There wasn't enough gold, you were correct in that. He "took" the earnings from the Gold and then sold it to Remerio at a higher price. Since they obviously didn't have any money for that (their company was on the verge of bankruptcy), he just took enough to pay his debt and forced them to enter into a 10 year debt with him. Basically, they will be funding his travels for ten years. :-)

Hmm...I'll have to admit this wasn't quite what I was expecting. It seemed a little anti-climactic from the last episode. I thought there would be some more drama and action.

Overall this series didn't 'wow' me. It had some good parts that would get me excited, but then it would juts mellow down again. It's not bad, but it's not great...and some of the wolf anatomy in this final episode looked pretty bad. =/ The whole economy thing confused me at parts and I couldn't quite follow, so that didn't help either.

Oh well, it was still a pretty interesting series to watch, it just didn't have the kind of plot that would keep my attention for a long time.

I really enjoyed every episode of Spice and Wolf. It will race into my favorite list right after this post. I prefer thoughtful, intelligent and mature anime. In addition to that Im a huge "catgirl" fan. So, this show is just made for me ;)

Hehe, I had to prepare myself mentally for the last episode, quite I while. Now I watched it and normally should be extremly disappointed, because the three main things I was hoping for didnt occur:

1) An intense wolf-fight

2) A touching reunion of Lawrence and Horo



3) Wolf-babies with white hair and red eyes (ok....maybe I wanted too much)

Interestingly enough Im not dissapointed. This last episode left me with a satisfied feeling. They are still on their track, waiting for new adventures and quarrels to come. Its an open, but also very happy ending. *Thumbs up*

I personally have no choice. Im addicted. This is a clear 10/10 for me!

ALL HAIL TO THE TAIL!
