For those of you who are interested, this manga is based on a series of light novels currently available only in Japan. Translations can be found at http://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/in...Spice_%26_Wolf , which at the time of posting had fully translated volumes 1, 3 and 4. Rough US release dates can also be found for the official translations.

in america we will have one released evrery 6 months starting in decemeber 2009, it will be released by yen press which seems to do pretty good with translations (look up sundome, they kept that pretty straight and uncensored). However the website above is a good place to go, i have been lurking the forums and although it seems like they stopped they haven't, they're still translating it slowly. I would just wait and buy the novels but volumne 4 which is already scanslated wont be released here until December 2011 and im afraid i might have become to busy with life at that point so im just going to read the scanslations for now and buy the novels as they come. (mind you in japan they're up to volumne 10/11, and each of the anime arcs cover one volumne, and one volumne of manga didnt cover one arc yet)
