[Anime Review] Spice And Wolf

Spice And Wolf

" Good anime, but very slow pace " - Bezoe

Craft Lawrence, a 25 year old peddler travelling from town to town selling and buying various things to make a living during a period much like Europe in the Middle Ages. One night when stopped at the town of Pasroe, he finds in his wagon a 250 year old pagan wolf deity girl named Horo. She appears to be that of a 15 year old girl, except for a wolf 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 anyway and that she has kept her promise to maintain the good harvests. She manages to bargain her way out of the village by making a deal with Lawrence to take her with him. As they travel, her wisdom helps increase his profits, but at the same time, her true nature draws unwanted attention from the church.

Graphic and animation wise actually pretty good. aside from the action scene which feel pretty plain. Can't say too much about the story because it doesn't interested me at all. Its revolving around trading and merchant. For the people who loves bussiness kind of anime, this one will be pretty good, and also learning the currency of each kingdoms...

It is a very slow pace 13 episodes anime..
