you're the man.

1st half i could understand...2nd half was abit more

i didn't really understand the deal between abe and lawrence....lawrence took a loan or something from the merchant guild with horo as a gurantor to buy fur, but since there was a rebellion and fur was being burnt or impossible to be bought, the loan cannot be repaid so Horo was sold, which is still a profit to him? Horo was angry when he hesitated to sell her because he wasn't acting like a merchant.

As for shady dealings with the church, i didn't get the significance of statues actually being salt other than the church was profiting from salt smuggling. It didn't matter if it was statues or salt did it? Either way it was money for the church.

rofl this.

in all seriousness though, most of the tricks and what not in regards to their economics/business happenings, no longer apply in the real world we know today.

that said, its basic fundamentals still do. like the basic concept of supply and demand heh heh. lol pyrite.

the pyrite trade and the selling of futures is somewhat similar to our stock market ma....though what do i know. I fail in economics and business lol.

i can assure you, i was quite confused myself often too. and i even watched the RAW initially prior to subs for all the episodes, which adds to that confusion even further

after recapping a little from episode lists, i just realized Abe's name is officially "Eve"? "e bu", which v is usually pronounced bu... lol makes sense i guess oTL

and yes fur cannot be sold in the town, and the merchants are desperate, hence the "firesale" abe is capitalizing on that, but does not have enough money, thus used horo as a capital.
also, regardless of the fur able to be bought or not, it wouldn't have mattered as the fur NEEDS to be sold first so that horo wouldn't actually got sold. Abe has to make a trip away to make it happen due to the rebellion and there was no way it could be done there and then. Thankfully they still got the ledger for the inn, and it traded well for horo's freedom lol.

also the statues being salt didn't really mattered if it was salt or the item being a statue or not. it was just a preface for the church to gain power and to do so the church, like anyone else in the world until this very day, needs money. refer to 2nd half of season 1, the church blessed gold bars lol.

finally got to watch this, the story is way then i expected , and yes now i like horo and apples

way............... then? lol

Ohh wow I thought this thread is dead

naw, just sleeping, just as horo's favorite activity.

god no dead

I don't need to watch this series to like Horo and apples.

however watching this series makes me like horo and apples >9k x 6÷2(1+2) more

so suki, i sleep with her everynight, hug her almost every moment of my life, talk to her, and i even drink ribena apple as my daily liquid consumption to sustain my fragile mortal husk just to keep up with her god form.

watching this series will make me liking horo more >9k than you. i need to refrain myself from doing something silly.

do et faggot.

thats weird, after watching this anime all i like more is economy, trade, and medieval gold and silvers coins system.

you must go deepah.

oh, yeah. and after watching this anime horo's doujins became a bit better of a fapping material. wonder if i can find any for norah

theres quite a number for norah. typically involving the church abusing her and then raping her.
