A Christmas card wallpaper on the official Spice and Wolf website provides us our first good look of Horo and Kraft as drawn by the new character designer for the 2nd season of Spice and Wolf:
Toshimitsu Kobayashi, the new character designer and chief animation director, will be replacing Kazuya Kuroda who performed the same roles in the first season.
As the new season will be getting both a new character designer and a new animation studio (Brain’s Base instead of Imagin), there has been some consternation over what the new season would look like.
There is still no announced time of when the new season will air, unfortunately.
In the meantime, see the full picture of Horo in all her naked glory as drawn by Tony Taka here, on the Channel.

"Brain’s Base instead of Imagin"
Much, much better. Imagin's animation looks horrendous.
I wish to see the manga design in the anime, just too cute :3
Same dammit. The manga's art is so damn beautiful. Thats the Horo I want.
If nobody is telling me they changed the character designer I wouldnt even notice it , Is there any difference?
As long as there remains Engrish in the ED, I could care less.
Yea, whats up with Holo, is it not supposed to be Horo?
Hope to see some good change since the change have been initiated.
>Holo
Like hollow?
I prefer Whor-ro
haha...yea...
seems like the Director remains the same so theres wont be big change for this anime...
looking forward in this change of animation direction...
Id rather have Tony Taka draw horo for the 2nd season lol
*sniff* *sniff*
Is that a Gunslinger girl II caliber fuck up I smell?
Nah because Brains Base absolutely shits over Imagin when it comes to animation.
..and I was so happy thinking that its Tony's art thats gonna be animated.
Heh, sorry...there's no cleaned version of the Kobayashi picture, and I didn't want to make a crop.
That looks pretty close to the first season. Let's see how it looks in motion, hmm?
Just don't crap the original animation character designs.
Where's my ear-to-ear mouth Horo? Dammit.
oh well, at least we get to hear Kallen X Lelouch all over again :3
uwaah... tony taka's horo is hot ^^ cant wait for the 2nd season of spice and wolf!
I was worried, but it looks alright.
