@Eiswald@Awoo@Seth_Wachhaltamittel@SuperSnekFriend@Giganova8 Also, the author has done his research, and it shows. Spice & Wolf is one of the few Japanese (qausi-historical) fantasy works that doesn't just put modern Japanese minded people back in time, they actually behave like pre-modern Europeans for the most part, with the different social norms and all. Don't expect any liberal calls for fairness in it (thank God), Lawrence's often greedy merchant ways are really only tempered by some sense of a Christian moral framework and care for some of the people he meets along the way, Holo included.
