Given Spice and Wolf is getting a remake in 2024 (after 15 years of being dormant!), I feel like now’s a good time to suggest watching Spice and Wolf. It’s honestly the thing that kept me watching anime while growing up - it showed me anime wasn’t just for children (looking at you Pokémon) or always cringe (looking at you, classmates Naruto running at school.)
It’s a bit of a romcom set in medieval European-like area about a traveling merchant Lawrence and the wolf goddess Holo, simply traveling north to see Holo’s homeland. Both the dub and sub are fantastic, the story is lighthearted, and the music varies from “perfectly fitting” to low-key bop. While I personally think the original is very pretty to look at, the PV trailer of whatever Passione has cooking also looks gorgeous.
Hope you give my favorite a shot!

Looks interesting. Thanks for the suggestion!
