WE GOT OUR REMAKE LADS! LETS GO!!
It looks so beautiful. Passione be doing justice. And the soundtrack holy MOLY sounds so beautiful as well. Kevin Penkin never misses. The new voices sound cool. Aw man, this is the remake I'm looking forward to in 2024. Thoughts?

Edit: This was posted minites before the seiyuus were announced on Twitter to be the same as before. sorry in any case for the confusion

Those are the same seiyuus as the Original Anime.



The Art is great , but i'm worried about the Animation.
Passione doesn't really have a good trackrecord , and if the audio at the end really is for the scene shown , then i fell like there is a huge problem about the Animation of the mouths.

Anyway , i'd really be hyped if it gets 2+ cours.

Both main VA are the same. Great, because I can't imagine anyone else voicing Holo but Ami.
Passione is getting a lot projects lately. I'm a bit weary about this studio, because their anime tend to give that unsettling vibes.

I fail to see why they need a remake. 
I read the novels and the anime was pretty close to it. 
They skip a few parts but that's a given since you can't adapt every single monologue in the novel.

I wish they continued the story, I mean the romance. Like let them travel closer to Holo's homeland.

Well given it's been years since I read the novel so I can't remember but if it's just a volume, an OVA series could solve that (3-4 ep). No need to Start over from scratch.

Because many years passed since the original series aired, and most people won't go out of their way to watch it, or its sequel from 2009 for that matter.

Probably because it’s been like 15 years and for some reason can’t use the old art style so they just decided to start over

I may sound like this but I'll still watch this because Spice&Wolf is on my top 5 fav anime. 
I have great expectations getting to re-live this in a new perspective. 
I also bought some of the novels to show my support.

Yes , because you are a huge fan of the old one.
Those who are not so fans and new viewers most probably wouldn't watch a 3rd Season.
They win in almost every way with a Remake.

Don't refer to scores.
Citrus , Mieruko-chan & Rokka no Yuusha had good Animation in the first half , but did drop in quality during the second half.
So wait and see i guess...

The director is same and it has a really good music composer so that doesn't really matter much, the trailer looks good, I'm sure it's gonna be a good adaptation.

This studio mostly adapted B-tier source material at its best. Spice and wolf might turn out to be there first major hit.

passione's last "reboot" was higurashi gou/sotsu, which wasn't great, but the visuals weren't bad or janky or cheap looking. hopefully all the blame for that show goes to ryukishi and the studio gets this one right free of his meddling.

What more could a Spice and Wolf fan ask for. I am a happy man. I am a little worried about Passione but I think they will pull through.

Not sure about the studio involved and how the anime will turn out, but Kevin Penkin is great here and overall, it's cool to see this get a modern day remake adaptation. Especially if they adapt as much as possible and try to get to the end somewhat. I liked season 1, more mixed on season 2 but I'll see how this remake turns out to be next year.

Maybe if it's good enough, I'll finally be tempted to read that collector edition that I got a couple years back.

Such good anime, I don’t mind watching it again at all.
Note: I don’t lazily watch 3-5 episodes, biasedly compare to other anime, or unfairly judge by surface level similarities. With every anime I start, I watch the entire series, both Japanese Sub & English Dub, then judge each anime based on what they present, to give an honest and fair rating.

But Oshi no Ko is anime for horny teenagers. It's popularity is based on big tits and cute visuals.

Not the same demographics here. You need something else with more substance.
Oshi no Ko fans will get bored easily after the 1st economics talks lol

Not enough tits for them, they need at least D cup.

Did you watch the show? 😅
Not a single big titted character. Also why are you talking about that, I’m saying underrated studios can make well done projects. Especially cuz s&w has the same director of the old one so it’s probably gonna look consistent with that one. Staff matters more then studio

I really like that Holo still retains her charm even with the design changes. That being said, I’m still mixed on the overall new looks of this remake, especially with Passione of all studios being in charge of this. Still gonna be a worthwhile watch, hopefully, as I’m someone who did really love s1 of the OG series from Brain’s Base, though quite mixed with s2.
