Holo the Wisewolf). A contract is formed between the two that Lawrence will help Holo reach her homeland while she'll lend him her wisdom in his day to day trading. And here starts a beautiful journey where they face many challenges, obstacles, meet new people, visit new places all the while getting to know more about each other and growing affectionate about each other (not that they show it openly and while reading you're dying on the inside and screaming CONFESS ALREADY DAMMIT! *breathes*). While the main goal is finding Holo's homeland, our merchant also has a wish to establish his own business, buy a store in a popular town and live off it. While traveling to many new places they try to acquire knowledge about where Holo's from and make some profit as well after all he is a merchant.

A manga adaptation illustrated by Keito Koume began serialization in the November 2007 issue of ASCII Media Works' seinen manga magazine Dengeki Maoh. The first tankōbon volume was released by ASCII Media Works under their Dengeki Comics imprint on March 27, 2008; 16 volumes have been published as of February 2018.

[22] This manga is an adaptation of a light novel that was also adapted into a pretty popular anime. It is primarily centered around two core aspects. The first core aspect is the story of Holo and Lawrence, their relationship and their growth. It's an incredibly slow burn romance. A lot of their interactions stem from them both constantly teasing each other, with Holo generally being the one to start things off, but they're both also very cool headed and able to respond well to such teasing, and The Spice and Wolf light novel, manga, and anime all differ from one another. It’s not just that they tell the story through different mediums. They straight up tell the story differently. They follow different plot lines and they even change up the events and characters. For instance, the manga covers volumes 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 9, 14, 15, 16, and 17. Meanwhile, the anime covers volumes 1, 2, 3, 5, and 7. In this sense, they fleshed out the story differently. They also have different endings. Second Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu TV Anime Green-Lit". Anime News Network. February 5, 2009 . Retrieved February 5, 2009.

While the more arc-based stories center around money-creed corporations, curses, scammers and talking-hares even, they are all essentially spiced with the our two main characters just being there for each others, learning about one another and deciding what they really want from life. The characters are the selling point of the series from the light novel to the anime, and their personas along the strong art are the reason why the manga is of high quality.
