Summer season is drawing to a close. Most shows have either wrapped up last week or are wrapping up this week. So, let’s talk about it! Did anything surprise you? disappoint you? exceed your expectations? Of course, more general topics are still welcome just like any week.

I still haven’t watched the new spice and wolf, I was wary the second it was announced as a remake. The original is just kinda timeless to me, the animation style and music very well done.
I can’t really say whether the new one is better or worse than the old, but I think it’s probably worth watching for a Spice and Wolf fan. My impression is that the execution was pretty good; most of my hangups have to do with fundamental writing choices that would probably be in both versions of the show. It’s not like re-makes are always bad; just look at Fullmetal Alchemist!
