‘Spice and Wolf’ is a highly acclaimed anime series that intricately explores romantic complexities. The show sets a specific atmosphere with its slow but grand pacing. Its modest art style effectively highlights the captivating characters and the interesting economic themes. 

Although there are already two installments, the series is returning with a new one. The upcoming series, however, is not a continuation but a completely fresh chapter that portrays the story of Kraft Lawrence and his encounter with Holo, a wolf girl.

A second trailer was revealed, and a TikTok account was launched for the ‘Spice & Wolf: Merchant Meets the Wise Wolf’ anime. The anime will premiere in April 2024.
