That is a fairly relevant theme for Spice and Wolf. I hope the story unfolds that way. |

We'll probably get the merchant episode next week (since we seem to be moving a chapter an episode), but it will be interesting to see how closely they follow things. While I really liked the first episode, flukes happen and the real test will be episode two to see if they can keep the flow going. I can't say I agree with Chloe being in the series but at the same time while the journey is about Lawrence and Horo it's also about the people they meet while traveling. I really doubt we'll get the love triangle thing going but I'm sure Chloe won't be too happy to find out she got "dumped". Should be fun.

It's Horo, not Han Solo.

Lets go one step at a time: 1) What label is Ookami to Koushinryou light novels published under? Dengeki Bunko 2) What's the target gender of this label? Males 3) Target age of this label? hmm... something between teenage boys to men in their twenties. Don't be amazed, but that's the target readership of most of what many japanese sites refer to as 少年向けライトノベルレーベル --> light novel label for shounen (boy). Shounen light novel labels that are mentioned here are aimed at that readership (teenage boys to men in their twenties). Many great light novels came from these labels like these three male oriented labels: Dengeki Bunko brought us: Allison, Baccano!, Shinigami no Ballad, Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan, Inukami!, Iriya no Sora, UFO no Natsu, Kino no Tabi, Lillia and Treize, Mamoru-kun ni Megami no Shukufuku wo!, Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu, Ookami to Koushinryou, Shakugan no SHANA, Shigofumi ~Stories of Last Letter~, Starship Operators, Wagaya no Oinari-sama. Sneaker Bunko brought us: Suzumiya Haruhi, Trinity Blood, Mushi-Uta, Rental Magica MF Bunko J brought us: Zero no Tsukaima, Kamisama Kazoku, Kage Kara Mamoru! Above I only mentioned three male oriented labels with some of their light novels that got animated. There are many great light novel labels for males that have lots of great light novels published under them , many of them not animated yet. oh please god, an anime adaptation of Toradora! (please please please LOL). That's it. as for the manga, Dengeki Maoh is definitely a seinen manga magazine. Anyway, hopefully this post clarifies the target readership of the Ookami to Koushinryou light novels. Ahh also thanks CrowKenobi for those images

I liked how Lawrence was bringing salt up to the mountains and taking hides back down with him. Salt is a primary ingredient in natural hide preservation. Sorta like how salting meat makes it last longer as well. So it makes sense he would do a trade that way.

Yeah I won't be worrying a large amount about Chloe. Unless she's planning on going for a spring and jumping into the cart. Maybe the business she was getting involved with could have repercussions, but not sure that she will get involved with Horo and Lawrence.
She worked fine for the first episode. Don't think they'd use her to mess with the main plot as the travels begin. Nice that Ayako joined the subbing for this series.

Thank you!!! finally found someone reasonable here about the correctness of the subs I haven't watched the other sub groups but the opening you were talking about for BSS is completely wrong= = it should be something like: "once upon a time, people would describe the abundant wheat swaying in the wind as a wolf running through it. wheat that fell due to the wind would be said to be trampled on by the wolf. when the harvest wasn't good they would say the wheat was eaten by the wolf" I might not be a good writer but at least thats kinda what it means. anyways, its just an old saying that has been passed on for hundreds of year by the villagers. I mentioned this on some other anime forum and they said this is only some "minor" mistake and removed my topic orz by the way, do you know which other sub groups are making Ookami now? I kinda want to get a hold of them too |

You can go to Animsuki's main site and do a search for "Spice and Wolf." That should list everyone who put out anything in the series. There were four groups who've done episode 1, last I checked. Ayako, BSS, Infinite-Zero, and Studio ADTRW. I've only seen BSS's and I-Z's.

Just watched the first episode and fell in love with Horo instantly, so sweet and shrewd and I don't know which is more moe, the ears or the tail.
Generally I like the character designs, Chloe also is lovely, the story seems to be entertaining and the ending song and animation is great. |
