Spice and Wolf (light novel)
WestOnAndrewAve said: I feel like it'll be more like a Ruruni Kenshin reboot than a Fruits Basket Reboot in terms of being popular but not surpassing the original at least. The Fruits Basket Reboot was not that popular when it was airing (more than the Rurouni Kenshin one tho) , and it got more members than the Original 2 years after its run , when the Final Movie was released and hit #1 on the Top Anime of MAL. |

| On one hand I'd say the story is very good and the first pics look really nice, but on the other hand I think your average anime is probably better nowadays than it was back when the first anime adaptation came out, so... Basically, I hope it will bring in a new generation of fans, but difficult to say what's going to happen :) |
| I would say that I think it will probably be a great reboot, this is one of those shows that would be kind of difficult to mess up fully on. The reboot could even copy the original word for word and update the animation and this would be a good anime. One way I think this could fail is if they make it full of CGI, and from what I have seen, it will most likely not. Only other way they could ruin it is by adding unnecessary additions to the story that do not take place in the manga or LN to pander to people's beliefs or add unnecessary characters. They literally should have an almost zero % chance at messing this up. Hopefully I do not jinx it. |

| No, but not necessarily because of it's own fault. I believe this might be a passion project, touching the light novel for a re-adaptation after more than 10 years, and hopefully it will be a mostly complete adaptation (up to volume 17). But it's not really a story with mainstream appeal, if I should want to word it in an inoffensive way. |

| odds are it wont do to great, but it wont tank, after all spice and wolf already has a massive following of fans as it is from the OG novels (techincally 24 but only 7 of them are fillers) to the OG anime, the fact the author went so far in the story goes to show how well its story does in general the issue most people will probably have is the stark difference of the art style, its way to bright compared to the OG anime, but also way to... effects... extra whatever you wanna call it? compared to the art from the novels like its way to glammed up for how the story goes, like the art style doesnt really fit the narrative story telling, the old anime the art style was very fitting for the story |

| Spice & Wolf is one of my fav animes and from the looks of what I've seen so far, this is going to flop so hard. Not only is it a huge downgrade in terms of art style/animation, but it's an unnecessary reboot when what was really needed is a continuation after season 2. |
| Unfortunately I predict this will just be mere 7.x kind of production |
