I just saw that for Spring they’re doing a new Spice and Wolf, but it looks like they’re not continuing the story but re-making what already had a pretty good IMO anime with 2 seasons. IIRC That anime was also pretty close to the source material, so I can’t really see what us watchers will get from a remake other than I guess maybe more modern animation? Which is also kind of a waste cause there’s a lot more light novels to adapt IMO.
Not necessarily, they could take the Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood approach and speedrun the material that was already covered by the original.
That said, if they did that, it’d probably not be as good as the original because the original’s pacing was almost peak chill anime.
