I just watched the original Spice and Wolf over three days or so.

Now I've gone through 00, 01, and 02 at one sitting.

I can feel myself going into Spice and Wolf withdrawal...

This episode was nice and interesting, I wonder what Lawrence found out. Oh the suspence!

Good episode pretty much; nice new characters and interesting developments.

I'll be waiting for the conclusion to this cliff-hanger, although I expected one with the episode's title containing "Calm before the Storm" or something.

Frickin' cliffhanger. His expression looked very, very urgent though. ;x

Still hasn't measured up to the first season in terms of playfulness between Horo and Lawrence, but this episode was a big step up. I don't want to see them part ways, it would take away the story.

I like how Amarty is playing the counter to Nora from the first season, Nora made Horo jealous, Amarty is doing the same for Lawrence.

Should it be sad now that twice in a season I've been glad that subs scrolls by to quickly for me to process?

I hope they do part tragically though. The last time an Anime really got through me was 3 years back and if they do part given the circumstances they are in then that would really be depressing.

It would be more tragic if they ended up together because it would be a much bigger loss for Holo when she eventaully outlives him.

*sigh with deepest pleasure*

In this episode Horo was sooo damn cute, it was nearly criminal. Apparently I had the same feelings as the little apprentice in this picture (I was grabbing my chest and tried to calm down several times).


10/10... no discussion about it!
(...then again, they could show me Horo eating an apple for 20 minutes and I would nevertheless give a perfect score).

I like the details about the character behaviour. For example:
1) When Guy Bartose told Lawrence that besides alchemy also magic was researched in that part of the city, Lawrence refused to walk on since as a merchant he just dont believe in that kind of superstition. So Guy had to cajole Lawrence into following him further to Deannas house by saying that they are all "nice people". XD
2) The absolutely funny chat between Mark and his wife. Quote: "I would bake Amati a cake over your jealous flames".
3) When Lawrence asks drunken Horo where Amati is, she says that she "probably" parted with him downstairs..... just hilarious! ^^

It really gives me the feeling of a very well-thought-out and mature storyline. Totally different to the "He is the only chosen one teenager that can safe the world and satisfy all the girls" anime I have watched way too often in my life. :P

Oh very good episode. I like the pacing quite a lot and I haven't noticed any deviations from the novel.
This is such a good story. Hell, I know what happens next and I still can't wait to see the next episode!

Exactly. I have read the novel as well and have to say that to this point they adapted the story absolutely excellent. ^^

Yeah, same here. I hoped it would be a hint at HoroXLawrence "offspring" or something. *sigh* :P

horo really likes to tease lawrence, and i can't say that lightly.

that bit at the end seemed urgent.
gah cutting off the sound and leaving it at a cliff hanger. hmph leaving me to make up my own conclusions.
thought it also seemed like he was running away from something too.

Horo would have to know something about this spirit bear since she's a spirit wolf. Maybe she left the northland because she lost to it. *shugging shoulding*

Fuck this new blonde merchant. I'm thinking that he'll ruin the relationship of Horo and Lawrence. No Lawrence, you must win this battle.

Moon-hunting bear, huh? So, that's like the final boss or something?

Interesting episode. I wonder what did the young apprentice of Lawrence's friend told Lawrence. He was in a rush in the end, lol.

It seems to have a serious story from now, and the pacing is normal to me so far. Lawrence is certainly stupid when it comes to Horo. I figured out Amrty will ruin Lawrence and Horo's relationship. Damn cliffhanger. :<

I don't see why people think Horo's so damn cute. She's "sexy", yes, but she's also an alcoholic who doesn't seem capable of basic empathy (even Mark has noticed that Lawrence is acting strangely). She's winding Lawrence up like a cheap watch.

Horo also doesn't seem to want Lawrence to know she's got plans for Amarty. I guess she wants him to suffer a bit for not telling her what he's up to? She'll reap what she sows, because it's obvious he's destined to screw *something* up.

Frankly I don't think Horo's earned a kiss (though neither has Lawrence). Besides, Lawrence obviously isn't in this for the sex. Frankly I can see why - I'd be a little wary of sexing up a drunken wolf goddess too.

Finally started watching season 2, after finishing season 1 since like May, I watched both dubs and subs from Funimation. Now there's only subs for season 2. I gotta say that the dub fits more imo though since the setting is like a European style. The Eng VA for Holo has the ascent ;D fits nicely. I don't really like the Jap VA they all sound too young.
I mistaken that blonde kid for a girl lol...Season 2 seems pretty good so far.

Ahhh! What?! What happened?! Evil cliffhanger...!

It was amusing watching Lawrence talk to his merchant pal about Amati... He seemed to convince himself one minute that he really believed what he was saying (that there was surely nothing between Amati and Horo) and the next he'd be seriously doubting... XD

Was Horo's stomach upset from eating or drinking too much, I wonder...? (I mean, after her day with Amati.) I'd think that she would've restrained herself since she would want to keep up her charade as some coy, innocent nun...

Pretty good episode. As far as dialogue and conversations go, this was the most interesting episode of Spice and Wolf so far. Oh and loved the "witch"!
