Spice and Wolf Reboot Episode 5 First Look Released

Spice & Wolf‘s official remake anime series is now a few episodes into its run for the Spring 2024 anime schedule, and fans have gotten the first look at what’s coming next in Episode 5! Fans of the classic anime adapting Isuna Hasekura and Ju Ayakura’s original light novels have been keeping an eye on the new take on Spice & Wolf as the first few episodes of this new adaptation have been directly remaking everything that had happened before. But as the new reboot anime continues, the connection between this new take on Holo and Kraft Lawrence will likely be getting deeper in the episodes to come. 

Spice & wolf: merchant meets the wise wolf has seen Kraft and Holo already wrapped up in some kind of scheme with the previous episode, and it seems like things are only going to get more complicated with the introduction of some new characters and new problems that arise. To get the first idea of what’s coming in Episode 5 of the new Spice & Wolf anime series, you can check out the promo for the episode in the video above and preview images for the episode below.
