Spice and Wolf

- Season 1

(2008)

A merchant named Lawrence encounters Holo, a girl with the ears and tail of a wolf. An ancient goddess who longs to return to her northern home, she joins Lawrence in his travels.

Lawrence and Holo meet a young merchant who shares a scheme he hopes will bring profit. Holo teaches Lawrence how to relate to folks who may wish to deceive.

Holo's wily charm helps Lawrence get a great price in a fur trade, and the money exchanging scheme might be too good to be true.

Following an ambush by business competitors, Lawrence receives a letter which holds disturbing information regarding Holo's plight.

In the midst of rescuing Holo, Lawrence learns that the face behind the recent shady dealings is very familiar.

Lawrence and Holo might be separated for good after the untamed girl unleashes her powers to defeat a threat lurking beneath the city.

Lawrence uses his crafty business sense (while Holo utilizes her considerable charisma) to get a great deal on some expensive clothes.

Amid rumors of danger ahead, Holo and Lawrence move on after exposing a swindler. The next soul encountered on the road north makes the little wolf very uneasy.

After arriving in the next town, an old friend greets Lawrence warmly. But Holo is uneasy with their newest traveling companion.

Lawrence is suddenly burdened with a large amount of debt. If he doesn?t find a way out of the situation, he could lose more than his business.

Lawrence and Holo devise a plan to relieve their debt and must attempt to persuade the shepherd to take part in the risky scheme.

Just as it looks like the smuggling plot will succeed, Lawrence learns a hard truth about wolves in sheep?s clothing.

Lawrence settles the score with those who betrayed him and finds that even in a life based on profit and debt, some things are more valuable than others.
