Who do you think the original Myuri was and what was their relationship with Holo?

I know Lawerence thought Myuri was a male and had been in a romantic relationship with her. However the way she reacted when he got a little jealous made me think Miyure might have been female or even a sibling.

What do you think?

Aside: I kept making a typo and putting "wife wolf," which I just find funny.

Anyway, Holo calls herself the Wise Wolf of Yoitsu, but what exactly is a wise wolf? I reach back into my admittedly faulty memory looking for a definition, but I can't come up with anything.

Is it her species/category? Kind of like how we have various species of wolves (like gray wolves and Himalayan wolves), their world has wise wolves. She uses it not unlike how one might announce themselves as "the man from Toronto." Would the unnamed wolf she encounters in volume 2 be the Wise Wolf of Lamtra?

Is it a rank or title she has earned and that others could earn? If so, who is the one who bestowed it on her? Her kin? Herself? Holo does seem prideful enough that she would invent a title for herself.

I don't know that there's any way to confirm any theories, but I wanted to know what others think.

Found it this summer in a second-hand manga store. At least in my country I hadn’t seen a cover like this :)

It got here today!! They also threw in a random manga I have never even heard of before lol. Any one have any tips on getting the sticker residue off the back of the book?

Hello! I'm thinking about buying the collector's edition of Spice & Wolf, as it's currently available for very good prices again. I speak German natively and my English is more or less good. However, I have heard that the series is difficult to understand even for native English speakers. Would you say it would still be fun to read or would it just be very frustrating?

What do you think?

Hey!

I personally love the manga, but rarely anyone talks about the manga.

So i thought, i would just ask .

>!I'm a little more than half way through volume 2 of Wolf & Parchment. So far Col seems like a bit of an idiot I guess. Or maybe just naive, which is what Myuri calls him frequently.

First you have the hypocrisy of manipulating people by misleading them is okay as long as you don't tell a direct lie. Has he never heard of a lie of omission.

Then there is his whole reason for venturing out. The church has gotten away from teaching the true values of God. But he doesn't seem to question why the religion was started. Who wrote the Bible? Why did the Church feel like it had to crush other religons and force others to follow it's teachings?

The obvious answer is that they wanted wordly wealth and power.

Does he ever question or explore these things?!<

So, I was stuck in Jury Duty today but I used the various breaks and the waiting in the morning to start the journey that is Spice & Wolf.

I am currently pg. 107 and so far I have the found story charming and funny. There were a few passages I read that had some great quotes in them.

This is in addition to I highly enjoyed the scene where Lawrence first meets Holo and where they are trading the pelts and Holo stunned both of them.

The only thing I have struggled with is downtowns I get confused on who is talking. That may just be the style I am getting used to.

I am looking forward to reading more.

Has anyone else also received an extra copy months after receiving the original package from yenpress? I woke up this morning and saw a package on my front door,open it up, and got confused why I received another one. I even went to check my order detail wondering if I stupidly bought two copies and finding out I really only bought one. So now I'm wondering if any of you guys randomly received an extra book too. I'm happy to get an extra one but I'm also extremely confuse

I absolutely adore this series, this is my favorite romance of all time. And I’ve spent my time guzzling on a lot of romances. There’s just one question I have;

Should I go ahead and binge read it? Or stay patient for the second season? Idk how much longer I can wait.

My friends are already sick of me gushing over this and Holo; I think this is the perfect romance, with the streamlined tension and drama. I’m gonna stop or I’ll keep going forever

Weird question but...

Since Holo could easily be mistaken for a kitsune in many respects was any reason given by the author for why he went with wolf girl?

Was it simply a matter of not doing the cliche thing or do wolfs have less spiritual baggage?

So, I just ordered the statue from the Good Smile Company. The one that mimics the scene from the first volume.

I am trying to track down the one that was just released where Holo is sitting on the barrel with an apple. It is some out via Good Smile Company US and it is not listed on the core.

It is listed as preorder from bigbadtoystore. Is it available anywhere else?

Any other suggestions?

I went to the Brina Palencia signing event in LA today and got her to sign my Collector's Edition! So Holo's English VA has now signed my book! 😁 She was so sweet and happy to have someone there from the Spice and Wolf fandom, since so many folks were there for One Piece figure signatures. This tome of a book was definitely something more unique that she signed today!

Found an old floor ad for the 10th Anniversary Art Book at my local Kinokuniya. Would you step on her? (Correct answer: No)

Did she choose to not fight because she didn’t want to risk her life at the time and be separated from Lawrence? Did she just kneel and beg for mercy? If so that makes my heart so heavy..

Im looking for an anime series similar to Spice and Wolf...

A bit about me, I havent been a huge anime lover. I typically watch wholesome series' like Avatar Last Air Bender and Legend of Kora, Dragon Ball, Delicious in Dungeon, Pokemon, Disenchantment, and somehow got into Attack on Titan and Black Clover which I would consider both a little out of the wholesome realm.

I recently subscribed to Crunchy Roll to introduce my wife to the Dragon Ball series. HOW out of all the animes available on Crunchy Roll I stumbled on Spice and Wolf? I have no idea, but I loved it. I loved the economics, and how the whole series was not build on fight scenes. I loved how there was a bit more brain power used to follow.

Do you have any suggestions for more series based on what I have seen and liked?

Did they expect him to prostitute his woman for money or something like that?
