Horo's wolf form totally pwned !
I understand that she didn't want to kill Chole because Lawrence is afraid of wolves because of the "incident" he mentioned but i really wanted to see the bitch die...

She could have done that before couldn't she... before they kidnapped her etc...-.-

I thought it was just another great episode. :D Horo's wolf form was really... shocking. But amazing. I can see why it freaked Lawrence out the first time he saw it. Does make me wonder more about his bad memories about wolves - there must be more to that story than the short flashback we saw before.

Glad that they can stick together. :) I'm worried about Chloe though... She's still alive, so she could always come seeking revenge, no?! Her coldness didn't surprise me as much as it (perhaps) should have. Just made me dislike her more.

And ah, the title is explained. XD Spice and Wolf - Lawrence and Horo? (Or am I mistaken about what they said at the end...)

I was hoping it more to be like Holo leaving and him spending all the money he was suppose to get from the deal on tryin to find her, but this works as well.
How did Holo expect Lawr to react? she kinda over reacted.
Never the less =D awesome episode
huh?

Sorry, but you'd be scared shitless.


Well I would NOT be scared of a wolf in general. Contrary to popular belief, they are NOT normally dangerous to humans, at least not the two I encountered in the forests of suburban Stockholm. Both times I would just stay calm and look at the wolf who would then look back at me from some distance as if to analyze me, and then go further. Not complicated. And not scary either.

You don't have to hope for romance, this is a romance. When she turned to him and said "Please don't look at me" before transforming proved she didn't want to lose him to fear.

Yeah, that's right. You don't need to add fluffiness to have romance. This anime is great in every aspect and that's shown right here in this episode. Even the action which hasn't been that often was really well done. And in the end, they actually made me think Lawrence and Holo were going to part ways, at least for a bit. I loved how they made the reunion scene. This episode was amazing.

Holo's true form is awesome. It's nice to see Lawrence and Holo still traveling together.But Lawrence shouldn't act such a scary cat like that. It really hurts Holo.

Holy crap, this episode was amaaazing! I was expecting something like this, but not as brutal as the scene in the sewers!

And the ending of the episode was so satisfying. Taking everything into account, really feel-good episode!

Spice and Wolf, now it makes sense :D

Episode 7 is a side story that just happens to fit right into that spot in the story, though it was told in a later volume of the light novels (it's a similar case with season two's "episode 0" OVA).

No kidding.. it should be pretty clear given that it's about 2 lonely, flirty people traveling all alone with little to do except get to know each other :)

Maurox said:
I have to add... Yeah, I found Lawr being afraid of her pretty dumb, after all she knew her for some time...

Really? I think he took it like a champ given that he's never seen a giant wolf, not even in a movie or anime. He needed what, a few seconds to get over his primal fear before he moved onto the next fear :D

I would have been completely lost about the church's story without the explanation at the end of Ayako release.

Collecting devaluating currency is not equivalent to taking on debt though. It is similar in that it is used to fund the investment in rights and it is given interest through fall in value, but the nature is entirely different.

Initially thought that Holo would just leave him but I'm glad he was able to meet her at the end. Also, she stayed with him until that boss came by...Holo is serious waifu material.

Lawrence did get that extra bonus so at least he gets something nice out of the fallen deal. I'm enjoying Ayako's little tidbits from the LN as well. Glad I chose as a sub group

I thought Chloe was a good character but she didn't even think twice and gave the order to kill Lawrence.
And Horo's wolf form was amazing.
The part when Lawrence was reading the envelopes. First one was 140 coins is that all?
Second 1000 coins :O
For a moment i thought that Horo would go alone on the journey to the North. I'm Glad it didn't happen.
Anyway it was an interesting episode.

The Milone Trading company selling them was either a lie or it was just a lacky of the group that sold them out to make a bit of cash and not the actual company.

Also I think that the "spice" in Spice and Wolf is indicating the many experiences that traveling merchants (Lawrence) have and is symbolic of what makes them desirable.

Holo wolf form is brutal... I like it.

Chloe was so cold. I guess it's what it take for a trader job.

It was funny how Lawrence didn't react to Liechten story, which was interresting.

So they continue their journey to the north. I really wonder what she's looking up there.

I'm amazed how I didn't make the rapprochement between spices and the job of a merchantman. Now I understand the title :P

Favorite episode as of right now. Wolf form of Horo was amazing.

Although I didn't quite get the end. Was Horo's intentions to leave without Lawrence?

Oh man the intensity is rising, looks like they found them. Her true form revealed after Chloe threatened her to come to the Church. Yeah screw her, Holo for the win! He is really attached to Holo, well glad that she is back at the end :D.

It's hinted at in episode 2, and explained more in the novels. He's come close to being caught by wolves several times while traveling, and has seen and/or heard others get eaten alive by wolves at least once. Oh, and she's also an enormous man-eating wolf. Not many people I know wouldn't shit themselves in that situation.
