Me and Holo.. Oh sorry, I mean 'Spice and Wolf' manga has been said to be the worst version of the story. This is perhaps true, but it contains countless, polished artwork of Holo eating, sleeping, drinking, smiling, bathing, smirking, hugging, sitting, and---apples, and therefore, it's perfect and flawless in every way. Not really, but it's exactly everything a fan of the franchise could wish for.


The art of this manga is fantastic. I have lost count on how many light novel series and already produced anime series have received a manga adaptation with beyond lackclustery art. Spice and Wolf looks rough and almost sketched, ...

Biased opinions aside.(as this is my favorite manga/anime series)

I would like to say that I lent my friends this manga, and they don't read anything 18+ because of their own personal choosing.
I was still able to convince them to read the First volume as long as i stickynoted/censored all of the Mild Nudity, or anything that was in the least bit suggestive.

So i did, and after 10 minutes of "censoring" the first volume, and about 3 seconds of "censoring" the second. They decided to read it.

After reading the first novel they almost didn't want to read the second, I convinced them otherwise, and they both ...

Without a doubt, Spice and Wolf is one of the more recognizable and loved series of the decade. Originally based on the brilliant light novel and followed by an amazing yet sadly unconcluded anime, now comes a Spice and Wolf manga. But is it really necessary?

The short answer is... yes!

The quality of the manga does not fail to impress! A must read for any fans of the series, and especially those of the anime. Every scene shown in the anime is expanded upon in the manga with much detail and often with very high quality art making it a very worth while to read.

This ...

Spice and Wolf Manga Review - Non Spoiler
Chapters: 100
Genre: Adventure, Seinen, Fantasy, Romance, Drama, Supernatural, Historical
Mangaka: Isuna Hasekura

This is a review about a very unique manga that's way too UNDERRATED IMO, where most fantasy themed manga are about swords and magic this takes on a more trade and economic route and adds in witty dialogs, great story, amazing characters, plot twists and WHOLESOMENESS.
You might think that this manga being about trades and economic in the medieval ages would be boring but here I am reviewing this masterpiece.

PLOT:
A traveling merchant Kraft Lawrence meets the Goddess of Harvest Holo in her human form (also known as ...

Spice and Wolf is a very non-comum manga, and I guess that's what called my attention.

This manga tells about a merchant named Lawrence, that travels around the world selling and trading things, it's based on the european medieval economy, the exchange, and the begining of the money. And I guess I've never read a manga about economy before. So, this Lawrence find a girl with a tail and wolf ears called Horo, and she said that she is a godness, the wheat godness, but the people don't need her anymore, and shes far away from home, so Lawrence decided to help her to ...

tl;dr: A manga adaptation that has some weaknesses, but is overall a very good blend of romance and economics.

This manga is an adaptation of a light novel that was also adapted into a pretty popular anime. It is primarily centered around two core aspects. The first core aspect is the story of Holo and Lawrence, their relationship and their growth. It's an incredibly slow burn romance. A lot of their interactions stem from them both constantly teasing each other, with Holo generally being the one to start things off, but they're both also very cool headed and able to respond well to such teasing, and ...

I start this review by saying that spice and wolf is, for me, one of the few Japanese works that can uniquely describe a medieval / fantasy world, implementing slice of life facets to a solid and interesting story.

Moreover, unlike many lovers of spice and wolf, I believe that the manga is a work that has nothing to envy to the anime and the light novel, since it presents the engaging story of spice and wolf, adding however the fantastic drawings of koume sensei, which give peculiar details to Holo (in particular), and make Lawrence a character who demonstrates many more emotions.

Now I ...

Spice and Wolf is a romance manga with touches of drama with power dynamics and intrigue, but let's break it down.

The central characters are Lawrence accompanying Horo in search of his homeland, both protagonists are very charismatic and with a chemistry that makes the romance engaging. In that sense, see how their relationship blossoms along the journey and how one influence on the other is not only fun but rewarding.

The story is surprisingly cool, focused on being an adventure where to find the location of the land of Horo they need to investigate manuscripts and collect information. However, knowledge has power and especially value for ...
