“Spice and Wolf” is a show which takes a little time to explain things to convince the audience to believe the situation and plotline. Lawrence and Horo are the only main characters of the show, therefore, the story didn’t become too complex or too clumsy. It was said by some fans that the producers of the anime will be testing the response of fans with OVA episodes of the anime. If the response to those episodes is good enough, then they will start working on the new story for the “Spice and Wolf”.
