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
...
back home.
Now it's the part that you think "oh, another romance manga", but you're wrong, even with some romance subtended, the whole manga is based on the economy of this time, with a lit bit of fights, and drama, that makes the story even more real, like for exemplo the church running after them because in that time, a girl with ears and tail os problaby something possessed and need to be finished.
Another good point of this manga is the art, the scenarios are really good, and clean, the cities, the field, everything is really beautiful.
The only flaw is that everything take so long to happens that makes you tired of reading sometimes
