The ever-popular duo of Lawerence and Holo continue their adventures in the Spice and Wolf: MERCHANT MEETS THE WISE WOLF anime into the next anime season. To go along with the change of seasons, a change of opening and ending theme songs are in order.
The latest two tunes were announced today alongside a new trailer featuring Aimer’s opening theme teasing the next part of the anime adaptation of Isuna Hasekura’s light novel series.
The new opening theme song “Sign,” which can be heard in the above trailer, is being performed by Aimer while the new ending theme song “Ringo to Kimi (Apple and You)” is sung by musical group Neriame.
Spice and Wolf: MERCHANT MEETS THE WISE WOLF is chief-directed by Takeo Takahashi and directed by Hijiri Sanpei (Maoyu assistant director) at studio Passione. Ami Koshimizu and Jun Fukuyama reprise their roles as Holo and Lawrence, respectively, from the original 2008 anime.
Crunchyroll is streaming the series as it airs in Japan, describing the story as such:
Lawrence is a traveling merchant selling various goods from a horse-drawn cart. One day, he arrives at a village and meets a beautiful girl with the ears and tail of an animal! Her name is Holo the Wisewolf and she brings bountiful harvests. She wishes to return to her homeland, and Lawrence offers to take her. Now, the once-lonely merchant and the once-lonely wisewolf begin their journey north.
