Spice and Wolf II



Season 2 of Spice and Wolf is underway.
And already into our first arc, things are blown out of proportion. Our duo are on the verge of breaking up thanks to some young "Knight in Shining Armour". It doesn't exactly help that our hero Lawrence looks old and scruffy. But hey, he's a merchant.

Into the 4th Episode, things are set, both sides the cowardly merchant, and the valiant knight dual off in their challenges. Once again i am dumbfounded by their business talk. I'll have to rewatch the episode just to clarify and understand what they meant by 'selling the future' and will ask my commerce friends if that actually exists or not.

Despite seeing this shaky ground between our lovely duo though, Somewhere in the back of my head it says "they can't break up. Together is what makes the show itself! Unless they plan to have the break up here and now and have Lawrence chasing after her in all manner of commerce-like events @_@ ) But this is one reason why i do like stories even if they might be predictable. I would like to see how they spin it out. Yes i believe that they will triumph over this knight, and have our wise wolf and easy-to-read-cute merchant back together travelling across the lands (though who knows where to now? now that a bombshell has been landed on their original destination). Because as mentioned, if it doesn't, doesn't this mean the show is over? o_O? and we only already just started the second season @_@.....

I now anxiously await the upcomming 5th episode to be available.
Meanwhile my source of Bakemonogatari is slow.
Canaan is what i thought originally. Not going to be that interesting.

Though i might be looking forward to the upcomming season, if what i read is to be right.
