Spice and Wolf Season 2

Ahh.. and another show ends. To bad it was only 12 episodes.. But they did leave it open for a 3rd season.

Spice and Wolf is a light novel series that has been licensed by Yen Press, so hopefully I can read those soon ^^
The anime has been licensed by Funimation... hooray...

Spice and wolf

Spice and Wolf's story revolves around Kraft Lawrence, a twenty-five-year-old traveling merchant who peddles various goods from town to town to make a living in a stylized historical setting with European influences.[6] His main goal in life is to gather enough money to start his own shop, and he already has been traveling for seven years while gaining experience in the trade. One night when stopped at the town of Pasroe, he finds in his wagon a pagan wolf-deity girl named Holo who is over six hundred years old. She appears to be a fifteen-year-old girl, except for a wolf's tail and ears. She introduces herself as the town's goddess of harvest, who has kept it blessed with good harvests of wheat for many years. Despite having the responsibility to watch over the town, she wants to go back to her homeland in the north called Yoitsu; she believes the people have already forsaken her and that she has kept her promise to maintain the good harvests.

In the 2nd season, they are still traveling, making their way up north to her homeland but with many stops on the way. Lawrence is still a merchant that needs to make a profit. Throughout their travels, the two have had many ups and downs but she helps him by providing her wisdom which helps to increase his profits and get him out of jams

They also meet various new characters which are either friends or foes.

All in all I'm glad that we finally got to see Lawrence say "I love you" to Horo. She mad multiple attempts but the guy never realized. Poor Lawrence Craft may be a genius at business, but he sure is dense when it comes to other matters. Although she's afraid of falling in love with him, because she's aware that he'll leave her one day (she'll outlive him). What really strikes right at the heart is Horo’s inner conflict. Caught between her desire to return home and her blossoming feelings for Lawrence, she struggles to balance her wolf nature with her human side. Aww.. and they finally kissed too.

Come on there better be a Season 3!! They finally gave us some clues about her hometown and that it was possibly destroyed by a giant bear. I must see! And I still look forward to reading the novels since novels are usually better.
