Spice & Wolf

With his carthorse as his only companion, the young merchant Kraft Lawrence slowly wends his way through dusty back roads in search of profitable trade. But this monotony screeches to a halt when, one night, he encounters a harvest goddess in the guise of a beautiful young girl…with wolf ears and a tail! Longing for the northern lands of her birth, Holo the Wisewolf joins Lawrence as he follows the ebb and flow of trade through the countryside. And when the two come across a compelling but suspicious opportunity for profit, will Lawrence with his mercantile chops and Holo with her ancient instincts be able to separate the truth from the lies — and make some coin while they’re at it?!

It has been more than ten years since Holo and Lawrence, who became a happily married couple after completing their long journey to send the Wisewolf back home, opened the bathhouse Spice and Wolf in the hot spring resort of Nyohhira. This is a story of continued happiness spun in the bathhouse, which is said to bring happiness and laughter.

The young man Cole dreams of one day joining the holy clergy and departs on a journey from the bathhouse "The Spice and Wolf Inn," owned by his savior, Lawrence. The Winfiel Kingdom's prince has invited him to help correct the sins of the church. But as his travels begin, Cole discovers in his luggage a young girl with a wolf's ears and tail named Myuri who stowed away for the ride! In the past, Cole had accompanied the Wise Wolf Holo and the traveling merchant Lawrence on their own wanderings, eventually growing up alongside their daughter, Myuri as siblings. But as Cole prepared to set off, Myuri opposed his departure and so she secretly ran away from home to join him! This is the story of Wolf and Parchment, and the pair's travels that will someday change the world! (Source: Yen Press)
