The quality of TV-J raw is actually pretty decent. Sample pic under spoiler tag.



I was just wondering, wasn't it supposed to air tomorrow?

Just saw the Raw get posted up on zomganime.com how long do you think It will take subbers to get it up?

Normally i can generally follow raw episodes to an extent with my limited Japanese but I bet therr will be a lot of dialogue

First, I don't like the new op nearly as much as tabi no tochuu but the new ed isn't bad.

Second, the only reason I was able to follow anything is because I've read the relevant novel chapter so I'm going to have to rewatch this subbed. That sad, it is so good to be able to see more Horo and this season is looking to be very good.

I think the same for the opening & ending.
I prefer really tabi no tochuu but the second ending is good for me. :)

I have to agree tabi no tochuu can't be topped. I'm almost think its on the level of God tier. Anyway, I have to say it was enjoyable episode. I can't wait to see more.

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.

Mazui dropped Haruhi2 and is subbing this one instead. They released the first episode ~ 1 h ago.

I agree: New OP/ED songs are not as good as the old ones, though the visuals are good.

Regarding that episode: Glad it's finally here. The first season was a really unique masterpiece and this first episode of the new season was along the lines of season 1. You just can't top these meaningful dialogues.

For me this was the most enjoyable first episode of this new season.

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

I enjoyed this episode alot, really reminded me of the first season of the show. Wish Baka-Tsuki would complete the translation of the novels so I can find out what happens now instead of waiting 12 weeks >:3

SandW2 in the summer, win.
+1 for Horo with a hangover. Ah, it's so nice to watch this again, really, it's refreshing, when you compare it to other shows. (Trying not to think about the max. of 12 episodes... ) Next to CANAAN, the most promising show of this season for me.

Tabi No Tochuu can't be stopped by this opening; nevertheless doesn't mean it is bad. Was a really nice episode, the chemistry didn't change at all, nice feeling i got from it. Definetly perfect.

Great episode, the op and ed weren't as catchy but they were still nice to listen to. I have a feeling this one is going to get darker than the first season, but we'll see. Hope her dream doesn't come true in the end.

That reminds me, I think it was pretty cheap to just copy+paste that straight from the OVA, but maybe I am still sore about Endless Eight.

"It feels like a long time ago since we first met." and a long time has this wait been going on, and now, at last, Horo and Lawrence are back, banzai! \o/
and well.. I guess this first episode was pretty much what I was expecting, and it's starting at a score of 8 ٩๏_๏)۶
this isn't something I usually say, but I can't wait for the next episode, that's just how much I've missed this serious since the first season ended <3

also, on a side-note, the ending song isn't as good as the S1 ending xD although it's still good, and kind of cute in a way : p

I love it love it love it!!!

I'm so glad Spice + Wolf is back with more Horo-y goodness!
The opening was cute, though I will miss the old one. Still all the lovely horo x lawrence shots are quite cute! XD

Also...



The end of the episode made me feel kind of sad. Lawrence needs to get his words out!!

The ending sounds like it is sung by the same girl who did the previous ending?

Is this the first time we heard of the name of Horo's home village? It feels like totally new information, but it could just be a bad memory on my part.

Besides that, it was Spice and Wolf: great dialogue between Lawerence and Horo, and boring/uneventful everything else.

They also talked more about the destination, which is something I welcome since I felt like that was greatly missing from the first series.

M-Efing awesome, Horo is back is back baby! The episode was good, it had the usual S&W feel which is good. However, the op and ed were disappointing they just felt sort of weak unlike the first season's. This season seems to have more drama in store for us looking at how this episode developed, and the slight hints of the separation Horo and Lawrence must face once they arrive to Horo's home town. I'm looking forward to how this second season develops, and hopefully it will not disappoint.
