Spice and Wolf Season 2 Has Been Officially Announced

One of the best anime remakes of the decade, Spice and Wolf: Merchant Meets The Wise Wolf, has just ended its first season run. The first season animated by Studio Passione, has done a good job at re-imagining the anime for how it is, practically clouding the first iteration of this masterpiece. It is with great joy for fans of this story to get an announcement like this. Spice and Wolf Season 2 was officially confirmed to be in production so its a win for everyone. An official date has not yet been announced.

The light novel series written by Isuna Hasekura, has had a lot of adaptations in media creating the franchise we know and love today. This landed the series an adaptation in 2008 which was the first iteration of the anime. The anime had two seasons running from January 2008, and ending in September of 2009. There were issues with this anime adaptation, from production, to deviating from the source material which made fans mad. This is why a remake was spearheaded for this franchise.

Not every anime gets the opportunity to have a re-run, since it is costly and Shueisha doesn’t see the need for it. Having a remake was a blessing for Spice and Wolf fans, that is not adding the season 2 announcement. The production will take at most a year or two so, 2026 or 2027, is when season 2 will air. That, or they split it into two cours, significantly reducing the load on the staff. The remake has been good, and fans are eagerly waiting for the next adventures of Holo and Lawrence, as they journey towards their hopes and dreams.
