(Part 2) Top products from r/SpiceandWolf

From what I understand, the manga is only nearing the end of the anime at the moment. It is not very far at all. I have not read it myself to confirm though.

The novels are all around better. I actually like reading anime/manga related light novels and have read tons of them. I can say Spice and Wolf is definitely among the better ones in terms of quality. I bought the official Yen Press books. They're translated very well, and they even translate the author's at the end which is nice. You can usually find them on Amazon anywhere between $6 and $11. Amazon's prices fluctuate seemingly randomly and I have no idea why.

If you watched the entire anime, you would have seen novels 1-3, 5, and 2/3 of book 7. To continue the story, you'd want to buy 4, 6, then 8-11 (if you go for the Yen Press official English release). The fan translation has done the whole series though, so if you can't get enough, maybe you'd want to just read it that way. I've read stuff from that group and they do a good job most of the time with all their series. Sometimes the text is a bit weird and occasionally the flow is choppy, but for a free service they do a very good job. I haven't read their Spice and Wolf one, but you could probably ask the other guy who commented.

I would recommend reading just one of the light novels first though before buying or downloading several. Some people just don't like reading or dislike the style of light novels. I personally like them, but they don't have much literary depth which may not appeal to people used to reading higher quality literature. The classification pretty much sums it all up - it's just a LIGHT novel.

Anyways, I'd recommend buying book 4. Support the series, get a nice physical paperback, and see if you like it. If you do, get the rest via Yen Press or fan translation.

Here's an Amazon link to the 4th book

If you have any questions feel free to ask. I've read all Yen Press releases 1-10.

There's a bit of information about it on the same site.

All it is is a re-release of the old Blu-Ray Box (which looks like this).

Its MSRP is 30,000 JPY + tax, but you can get it on Amazon JP for 22,310 JPY (no tax, and 1,050 JPY for shipping). This re-release is also bundled with an exclusive short story.

Legal option for soundtracks here (of course this is just one of many sites to get them):

edit:made it looks better

Recently finished the Anime (like, Saturday) and quickly fell in love with the story. Couldn't help but start the story over again, but there is a question. Is this the official Nendoroid or os this a bootleg?https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MSAEH65/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_I2NgDbH5BYQKP
Paycheck is soon, so ohhhhh boy.

Short answer: Partially. The project was "abandoned".

Personal long answer: I've been wanting to continue the project for a long time now. I have the technical skills to do it, but I'm not a translator. I'm currently learning japanese and one of my main motivations for it is to finish this project, it's something I've always wanted to do. And not just the first one, I want to translate the second one too: 狼と香辛料 海を渡る風. So in the future, yes, I'll pick up where the team left and finish both projects one day, and publish the patches here. But sorry to sort of destroy your hopes: I believe I'm alone in this and it's going to take me a long time, so don't expect anything from me soon. If anyone fluent in english and japanese had the disposition to translate the lines to help me, it would probably come out much faster.

Well, found the answer to my question here.

Online it doesn't look like I can find anything further than chapter 35, but then again it isn't an official manga site...
