well First thing If you are a person that enjoy reading books specially romance novels you going to love this anime. spice and wolf is a book more than an anime. story is the characters their relationship their every small reaction to every event and etc. If you are a person who loves books really enjoy reading novels love cute girls :D Spice and wolf going to please you well. story is Exactly as is should be one soothing romance story that slowly hunt your soul.Story of a wolf goddess named Holo The wise wolf and simple merchant named craft lawrence traveling together through a fantasy world which looks like old Europe in 13th century where churches have lot of power and control most cities. though it looks like one SIMPLE story but it isnt actually. there are lot of point in story when you feel extremely excited. but after all we can summary the story of anime in two words Holo and lawrence The Spice and Wolf. The main character of anime Holo is the far the best character of all animes games and etc. she has the best personality best habits best detail and everything else she needs to be THE BEST. There is no way that you watch this anime entirely and dont fall in love with holo. other than that the chemistry and romance between holo and lawrence is the best one in all animes. they are indeed the best anime couple. they have a unique relationship. I can spend all day to tell you how lovely holo is or how good are they two together but you will find out your self soon enough after first episodes. anime music is unbelievably match and good for it. it can change your emotions with ease during the important parts of story on top of that holos and lawrence voice acters did a wonderful job. I cant imagine a better and sweeter voice for Holo. long Story Short Spice and Wolf is a one of a kind anime no anime before and no anime after it was even close to it and unfortunately I dont think there would be one in the future neither. it will make your soul travel to an unkonwn magical world where you find your self in a place just like heaven. I would like to call it an illustrated book instead of an anime. if you are kind of person who enjoys old novels and beautiful love stories you will find nothing better than SAW to suits your needs.
