The official Japanese website of the Spice and Wolf franchise has confirmed that a second television anime season has been green-lit. Director Takeo Takahashi and screenplay writer Naruhisa Arakawa will return for Spice and Wolf II. However, Toshimitsu Kobayashi (El Hazard: The Alternative World, Fate/stay night) will replace Kazuya Kuroda as the character designer and chief animation director. Likewise, the Brain's Base studio (MazinKaiser, The Boy Who Saw the Wind) will be animating instead of IMAGIN. The anime adapts Isuna Hasekura and Jū Ayakura's acclaimed novel series that avoids the usual sword-and-sorcery trappings of fantasy stories and focuses on how business (and religion) gets done in a medieval world — with a wolf girl. Jun Fukuyama and Ami Koshimizu will reprise their roles as the peddler Lawrence and the wolf girl Holo who embark on a journey together.

The March issue of ASCII MediaWorks' Dengeki Maoh magazine announced last Tuesday that an unaired "Act 0" for the upcoming Spice and Wolf II anime series will be bundled with next Spice and Wolf visual novel on April 30. The Dengeki Bunko Visual Novel imprint will bundle Isuna Hasekura and Jū Ayakura's Ōkami to Kin no Mugiho book with the Act O "Ōkami to Kohaku-iro no Yūutsu" DVD.

Since the DVD is advertised as shipping "right before the second season," the second television season will not start before April. The anime adapts the acclaimed novel series that avoids the usual sword-and-sorcery trappings of fantasy stories and focuses on how business (and religion) gets done in a medieval world — with a wolf girl. Jun Fukuyama and Ami Koshimizu will reprise their roles as the peddler Lawrence and the wolf girl Holo who embark on a journey together.

i hope somebody will sub it, and fast. like ayako or [BSS]

ayako will take their time

BSS, maybe. but their recent partnership with gg has some bad traits rubbed off LOL

Some times I think partnership is even worse they take even longer.

ehh, thats not good. i hardly understand watching raw, and its less enjoyable watching while not understanding

horo-chwann~~

Can always watch good chinese subs they are always faster than english subs I wonder why.

Last time I think it was eclipse that sub it rite?

i can understand bout 50-60% typically, although admittedly, S&W being a more storyline/dialogue/drama/slice of life based anime, it is a lot harder OTL

ive tried out the RAW with the OVA episode 00, and it wasnt too bad after watching the subs later on

chinese subs are typically lower quality, oftenly so bad, i vomit at them. so i either RAW, or wait

eclipse didnt do horo S1, only ayako/BSS/sudo

Low quality as in picture quality? These days they come up with 720p too.

encoding, filterations, sound quality, sub quality, typesetting quality, etc etc.

and yes, they are inferior. until their slow subs are out, which are at least gets consideration, while the early release speed subs are all... trash. (they still use RMVB too /vomit)

Someone tell me that isn't the animation quality please.....

I think it's time for me to say

"BURN IT WITH FIRE"

For "~Okawari~" case,the artwork are pretty lame at first but eventually you get used to it

Horo is beautiful because of who she is, not how she look like, kthx.
