The Spice and Wolf series originally ran for 2 seasons with the first season being 13 episodes long and airing in 2008 and the second being 12 episodes and airing in 2009. Unfortunately, a third season was never made.

This new anime adaptation starts fresh and seemingly will be adapting the Spice and Wolf light novel series faithfully, making it the perfect place to start for new fans.

Merchant Meets the Wise Wolf will run for 25 episodes, with the previous anime's director, Takeo Takahashi, returning as chief director and a new studio on animation duty, Passione.

Spice and Wolf follows a merchant who, when visiting a new village to sell his wares, comes across a beautiful girl with the ears and tail of a wolf.
