Though it was a bit too quick for a climax


Really, you think so? I thought it was about one of the most mellow endings, and it worked very well for me.

The artwork is just beautiful, the setting amazing, Horo the most awesome being on the planet... I think this gets a 10/10 from me. Obvious amount of effort put into the creation of this anime, well deserved.

It was one of the most unique anime i have seen. Very awesome and touching, to be honest the ending leaves a hole in my opinion, but i know its because there will be another season, its confirmed, 30 april. The chemistry between Lawrence and Horo was just gorgeus.

This will get a 10/10 from me. Thinkin on a 9/10 because of the ending. But i will leave it that way. The ending is just the ending, i really enjoy'd this one. Just lovely.

The little quarrel at the end just made my day; I love how Lawrence went completely serious about Horo being a shorter name to say. Not much of an ending, but hey, we're having a second season. Hoping that it's going to be as great as this season.

9/10 for the whole anime, I get a vague feeling that some things could've been better. Need more medieval-merchant anime.

Decent ending. Not amazing, but I don't think this is supposed to be final anyway. Lawrence is finally able to counter Horo's demands, which makes it more entertaining.

Lovely series to say the least. I was hesitant to watch this because I wasn't sure I'd enjoy watching a show that takes place around medieval times and has a girl that has wolf ears and a tail. But I was very wrong, I loved Horo and the setting was fitting. I learned a few things about economics, which I had to rewind a few times to get what they were talking about cause I'm slow like that. >_> Lawrence and Horo's relationship is adorable, going from Horo teasing him to the reverse towards the last episodes. The little character details are great, such as Horo's tail wagging and her ears perking or "frowning" when she's ashamed or upset. Ending was very cute, with the clock tower and the blushing. Definitely a show I'd watch again. 10/10!

The ending was a bit abrupt, but meh.

I thought the series as a whole was pretty good, save for a few awkward scenes. I'll most likely be watching the second season.

WTF, AND THEY DIDN'T EVEN KISS?! HOPE THEY KISS IN SEQUEL.

10/10 for me. Very unique Anime. First time I've seen this kind.
Horo was indeed very, very, very awesome. So, does Lawrence, and Norah.

GOING TO WATCH THE OVAS AND SEQUEL TOMORROW.

8/10, Horo and Lawrence are both great characters and have a very genuine relationship. The show did start slow and didn't really pick up until the 5th episode and the last 4 or so episodes were just incredible. I have high hopes for the 2nd season.

Ah, my opinion is a bit different on this series. It was constantly on the border of being something I really liked. Just as Horo always teasing Lawrence, the series kept teasing me. Admittedly the last few episodes were really cool but the episodic/side-story merchant business is such a bore. I like the main story but there's not much on that. I wish they kept all 26 episodes in one season. Does season 2 finish the story? Do Lawrence & Horo ever become a couple? Not even sure why this has a romance tag on it since it seemed to only hint at the possibility. Somehow it doesn't seem fair for me to rate this series without seeing season 2.
Such junk...

A good 9/10 for me. This series never really bore me and everytime I had to rewind, I wanted to see Horo's cute teasing moments at Lawrence. I might be going into the financial course in College and this show greatly amused me. Horo is awesome. :D

It was a nice ending, but the no kiss scene cost them 1 point. So its a 9/10 for me.

Can't wait to start watching the next season and OVA.

This story might just motivate me go learn Japanese and read the novel. I like it.

Very relaxing and interesting series. I loved the slow pace and the interaction between Lawrence and Horo.

And what can I say about the last one? This girl is one of the most adorable, charismatic, cuteness and brilliant female I met in all my life. Definetly she stole my heart.

This show has a lot of potencial, so I'll go for the second season...

I loved this series, beginning to end. The way the story was told as one continuous long fim, which I utmostley enjoyed. I couln't help watching the next episode right after finishing one, like simply turnong the page to 'take a peek' on the next chapter, but ending up going on until the end.
I'm looking forward to watching seaso two, and hope it will a wonderful as the first season.

Action is really not the forte of this series, animation drop with most of the curse pursuit and fight.
I was quite disappointed in the last episodes. Most of the twists were there to test the relation between Horo and Lawrence, which is not a bad thing, but it felt a bit overused and with all those contrived twists the plot didn't seem to progress a lot.

Still a good anime overall, I gave it a 7 for the moment, I might give it a 8 later.

I wish MAL let us do deci-mals; 8.5/10 would be my score. The setting was remarkably fleshed out alluring immersion, and the tail didn't take too many easy solutions to plot occurrences.
But I felt there was a large investment in developing the setting of this anime - too larger investment. For this reason I now feel that 13 episodes really isn't enough to do this season justice. I know there is currently an S2 out with S3 on the way, but I think a double-arc split between 1-13/14-26 would have been much more suitable than rushing to a climax amidst a have-baked plot.
Chloe for instance was developed at first but then dumped very quickly and only had a bearing on the love-plot. What happened to the first town and their allegiance with the Wolf God? Why was the religious side of this story exacerbated? Just a plot-device?

Oh well, to season 2 now.

Hmm I really liked it! But I thought the climax happened a little too quickly, making the ending feel a little abrupt to me, though I suppose I should be grateful they didn't drag it out or something. It was still a great episode - lots of highlights. :D

Can't imagine how I would feel about the ending if I didn't know there was a second sequel. XD It seemed more like the end to the first season in an anime that's should just be continuous.

Anywayyy~ 8/10 for me, based on enjoyment. I really liked it, though not as much as others, it appears. Look forward to watching more, regardless. :]

they don't really care about the wolf god like before.
"The fairy story actually goes like this, when the villager start to cut the last crop.Horo will enter the person who cut it. Later the person will get lock up in the room for a certain time."
From the fairy tale, we can tell that Horo is not treated very well in the town.
People even blame the poor crop for Horo's uneven temper .even thou Horo explain that he purposely does that because it is to ensure a stable crop for the next year.
Furthermore, the village rely more on modern agriculture technology from the landlord.
