Synopsis :
Lawrence, a travelling merchant, meets with Horo, a wolf deity. Somehow, Lawrence promised Horo that he'll bring her home in the Northern region and that he will look after her. While Horo promised that she'll be his business partner so that they will earn money. At first, they argue alot and has lots of witty remark about each other but in the end, they end up falling with each other.

Storyline :
This anime storyline is simple and not much. Even so, it's sweet. The storyline is neat and simple without much complication but of course, once in a while, troubles are throwed in the anime.

Music :
The medieval music fits the medieval theme and feel of the anime, making the anime more real and alive. The Opening and the Ending music is nice and sweet.

Animation :
The animation is quite nice. It's nothing special but the art is not bad either.

HORO
Horo is a very smart but cunning wolf deity. She is also pretty and witty. Sometimes, she uses her beauty to fool people and to get what she wants. She is a damn good drinker. Sometimes, she behaves like a spoilt brat. Slowly, you will begin to love her character.


Review :
This anime is not a very good anime nor is it a terrible anime. It's one of those so-so anime that is very sweet and nice. It's the kind of anime that you would want to watch after watching epic and awesome anime. It's one of those anime that you watch to relax yourself.
Overall, it's a very nice anime. And you would want to see Lawrence and Horo together at the end of the season. So I rate it 3 stars.
