Hello mates.
'Spice and Wolf' the animation series is based on some twenty or so japanese light novels...
It's set in a medieval land much like Europe. It focuses on the aspect of religion in that time and doing buissness, specifically from the point of view of a travelling merchant.
And it features a teenage girl with wolf-like characteristics, specifically ears and a tail. Oh, and she's an ancient wolf demi-god of harvest.

That is the exposition to the thread.
Now I present you with three questions.
A- Did you see it? (If you did, did you enjoy it?; If not, would you consider watching it?)
OR
B- Do you give a rats' ass after you've read what's in this thread and willing to watch it now?

And now to the main event.
Is it wrong that I am somehow interested by that? That this thing is enjoyable for me?
Me, a person that used to watch Dragon Ball Z as a child with a zealot-like dedicatoin, utterly psyched when I saw how future Trunks ripped Mech-Freeza into shreds with his awesome sword while transforming into super saiyajin mode num. 1 so easily... wait, I'm getting off track here.

The point here is that I am enjoying this romace anime, and that it has the aforementioned girl in frontal nudity more than a few times and pleanty of times of her getting completely intoxicated.
Is there a cause to be worried? Is the numbness caused by frequently watching "Space Troopers" at age seven on the television finally starting to fade away?

I saw Spice and Wolf and loved it. Just because it isn't filled to the brim with manly men and action doesn't mean you should feel weird for watching it. It is genuinely a great show and I applaud you for your good taste.

Seen two seasons of it. My friends and I find it strange that we're watching a show about a wolf girl and economics. Even still, it has its good points.

I'm disappointed that I don't see any answers to my several questions.
I'm serious, mates. Is this a reason for concern?

You make it sound like a dirty anime. From what Ive seen it is an annoyingly philisophical one with a slight mix of annoyingly catchy credit song...

I believe that my avatar answers the question just fine.

Also there is no need to worry just because its a good story and a nice change of pace from the fighting and other ridiculous animes that are everywhere.

It's important to remember that Holo is more than a few hundred years old and only takes the form of a girl in her teens because she likes it, iirc. She shows her real age quite a bit throughout the series so don't let her young appearance turn you off of a really good anime.
