What to Expect From the Upcoming Spice and Wolf Anime Remake

The series is just around the corner, so it’s time to get ready.

Summary:

  • The Spice and Wolf remake is scheduled for April 1, 2024.
  • The remake is going to fix all the story issues the previous adaptation had.
  • You don’t have to watch the old anime to enjoy the remake.

Spice and Wolf: Merchant Meets the Wise Wolf is an upcoming remake of the 2008-2009 anime Spice and Wolf (Ookami to Koushinryou). It’s produced by Passione Studio and is scheduled for April 1, 2024. And no, it’s not an April Fools’ joke.

The anime will tell you a story of a powerful wolf deity, Holo, who forms a peculiar business partnership with a merchant named Kraft. This romantic fantasy made thousands of fans fall in love with its world back in the day, and we have a feeling it’ll do it all over again this April.

Why do we need a remake?

It would be natural to think that a remake is coming to update the visuals of the anime and bring back one of the fan-favorite romance stories, but it’s not that simple with Spice and Wolf.

The original anime adapted the light novels and skipped one of the volumes, which turned out to be important for the story later on. That’s why the series couldn’t get past Season 2 without addressing this issue. The remake promises to fix that and provide a proper adaptation of the original source.

What to expect?

The story of the Spice and Wolf remake will start right from the beginning, so you don’t have to finish the 2008-2009 anime to experience the new one. Fans still say that the previous anime was incredible, though, so if you want to watch it, you’ll have a great time.

The most common expectation among fans is that the remake will fix all the issues and make Spice and Wolf even more enjoyable than before. It’s too early to talk about further seasons, but fans think there will be more than one.

There are 13 light novel volumes that cover the main story, and readers hope to see all of them animated this time. It takes about 5 episodes to adapt one volume (can be less or more depending on the volume), so it’ll leave us with around 65 episodes. Sounds like three two-cour seasons to us.

Fans genuinely hope that the remake will be as well received as the original anime (and maybe even better!) and this time they’ll get to see the entire story animated. It’s less than a month until Spice and Wolf premieres, and we can’t wait to finally watch it.
