Not the strongest opining episode I've seen, but I agree that what it did have was impressive background art and well a little more fan service. Not sure why they decided to throw in so much, it was distracting. I'm still very happy Spice and Wolf is back. The foreshadowing in this first episode did open up some interesting new plot developments though.

Good first ep! I'm so happy this started again. I saw that certain character in the OP so it seems like it might animate my fav part from the novel.

An excellent first episode and everything that I loved and made the first season great is back. It's nice to see Horo/Holo and Lawrence animated again... I missed it so much over the long break. Anyway, I'm highly looking forward to the rest of season 2.

The op and ed are similar to last ones, so I like them.
So ya I'm guessing they'll burn through half of this new season with just volume 3! :D
But I'm hoping they won't spend that on it though ^^

Oh but there are solutions to that, I've rewatched the first season a few times when I wanted to see some Holo : D

Finally, I found the time to watch the first episode of the new season.... and I am TAKEN ABACK (in a very positive way). It was way better than I hoped it would be. I am SO HAPPY right now.... *hugging the entire thread*. ^^

The only thing that displeases me a little bit is the lack of Lawrence thoughts. I have read some of the novel-translations and noticed i.e. the following.


The ED was very nice... I really enjoyed the cute little pics. And maybe there is a big spoiler hidden. Look at this:

This ep feels really similar to the first series and that's a good thing!
Not much plot going on yet but it'll be interesting to see Horo return to her village. Though it seems Lawrence knows something that Horo does not.

Good to see things are pretty much the same. Seems like something happened to Horo's home village a long time ago that Lawrence knows about. OP isn't as good as the first season but the ED is actually bearable to me without all that engrish singing. :P On my toes for the next episode!

I missed this so much, this episode had everything which made the first season so good. Loved everything about it, even though as others have said, the OP isn't as good as last season's. <3.


I agree the songs of OP and ED didn't seem as good but other than that it was the good old Spice and Wolf we know with Horo being cute and all.
But i did noticed that there was a little more romance that economic trading in this one. I wonder if the series is gone a go more deep in showing us the relationship of Horo and Lawrence this time?

Damn. I wonder if Lawrence will acompany Horo until they reach Yoitsu. Also wondering what'll happen after that.

Decent start. Horo and Lawrence just makes a good and cute couple together. :D

That young blonde trader seems to like Horo. Hope he doesn't interrupt between Lawrence and Horo's relationship. :(

Always glad to have another season, but finding the time to watch it is tough..

This ep sure was cute (Hangover Horo ftw). But she should pay more attention to Lawrence. It's obvious he needs some emotional support after almost going bankrupt (he looks less and less stable as the episode progresses). Guess she's too busy trying to sex him up to notice he's hurting.

It was also nice to see him reject her clumsy, drunken advances after she openly rejected his lame (but apparently successful) pass at her. Turnabout is fair play. I guess Horo is going to take her frustrations out on this new sucker Amarti.

It was a nice episode for the beginning of the second season. I wonder how they are going to resolve that difference is ageing. But I guess that the anime will not venture into that territory. I hope it has a happy ending. They should be together for ever.

Aw, I miss the old ED. D': Though the new OP and ED are still nice... I just really liked the old one.

Yep, enjoyable first episode. Getting the feeling that Lawrence knows something about Yoitsu that he hasn't told Horo? And it's obvious that he's really itching to start up his own store...

We're off to a good start, especially the ending of the episode (though it was kinda sad).

It seems this season will focus more on Horo and the romantic side of their relationship.

I agree that the new OP isn't really good, neither is the new ED but I guess I'd just have to get used to them. The opening episode was great! Horo was more kawaii than ever and Lawrence is himself as much it's possible. I was hoping for a better second season, and I think I'm already getting it... I'm sure this one will be great!

Forever said:
Along these lines: Welcome back Lawrence & Horo! We missed you!
