According to Dengeki Bunko mail magazine, the final 16th volume of Spice and Wolf novel will be released next February. There might be extra short stories because the announcement says "The final volume of the main story".

Even though it's not the show, it's the novel. :)

Whoa an ending to this series! This is pretty great since having a canon end instead of endless more volumes *cough* Index, ZnT, Shana *cough*! This also signifies the ability to have more anime seasons since now the staff will know where to take the story!

And more short stories after couldn't be bad at all~

Had to be expected. Nonetheless, great to hear about it. :) I love Spice and Wolf! I hate shows which drag on for just to long. This opens the door for a next season again.

As long as it has a good ending, it's a good thing. Too bad we'll have to wait ages to have everything translated.

All should come to an end. It's not some infinity shounen to continue it forever. The more author tries to continue the good story the worser it comes. The only thing that matter - how the end looks.

So don't cry "it's ended". Be happy it ended at last and hope for smth new and better from the same author.

Spice and Wolf? If I remember correctly it's that Ricardo wannabe. Like most other manga, I would wish that it ends nicely.

Sadly, I thought the Novel was better than the anime. So the good stuff ends first and the weirdo fanservice dump gets ready to churn out a third season. Damn

I'm sad that it's ending, but I'm more sad that it'll take forever for me to get to read the ending, cause they take forever to be release where I live at.

I am seriously hoping that a final season will be given to the anime so that I can get some closure on the series without having to wait for the novels to all be translated. Loved the show. I learned more about economics from that series than from my teacher at school.

well, it had to end at some point
also, it makes it easier for a production stuff to catch up to the novel ^_^

This.
I don't want to wait 5+ years for the whole series!
It's going to take as long as the higurashi manga (that has more frequent releases but way more volumes)

I agree. This is actually a good thing.

I really enjoyed S&W (tv series). I have not read any of the novels and have only watched S&W season 1. I am waiting for Funimation's release or hulu to have all the subbed S2 shows available. After that, i'll definitely read the novels (one way or the other).

From what I understand (not sure if the novels veer from the 'main' goal), the goal was for Lawrence to accompany Holo back to her home in the north. Then we're shown there escapades, growing relationship and little plot devices along the way. All good stuff, but as someone said, this isn't a Bleach type show to run forever. Something has to happen to get to their goal.

I'm not one to wish for happy endings, but since this show is unique compared to what's generally available, i do hope for one (not a bad ending, not a bittersweet ending and certainly not an ending open to interpretation).

I haven't read the novels yet, but one of my favorite anime stories ending makes me sad...
However, there's now a better chance of 3rd season coming out, or maybe a Spice and Wolf movie, perhaps? Good things will happen before it all ends, I'm hoping. =)
