First announced last year, the new Spice and Wolf anime is on the way to TV in Japan in 2024. While we wait for further details, a new summer visual for Spice and Wolf: merchant meets the wise wolf arrived to get us ready for the return of Holo and Lawrence.

Takeo Takahashi and Hijiri Sanpei are directing the new Spice and Wolf anime at animation studio Passione. 

Yen Press released the original light novels for Spice and Wolf in English and sums up the story:

The life of a traveling merchant is a lonely one, a fact with which Kraft Lawrence is well acquainted. Wandering from town to town with just his horse, cart, and whatever wares have come his way, the peddler has pretty well settled into his routine-that is, until the night Lawrence finds a wolf goddess asleep in his cart. Taking the form of a fetching girl with wolf ears and a tail, Holo has wearied of tending to harvests in the countryside and strikes up a bargain with the merchant to lend him the cunning of “Holo the Wisewolf” to increase his profits in exchange for taking her along on his travels. What kind of businessman could turn down such an offer? Lawrence soon learns, though, that having an ancient goddess as a traveling companion can be a bit of a mixed blessing. Will this wolf girl turn out to be too wild to tame?
