The Art of the Remake

The longer you're an anime fan, the more you may come across improbable sequels/remakes. Spice and Wolf S3 was memed for the longest time, only to receive a reboot almost 15 years after its original airing. But, is that necessarily a good thing?
Here, I discuss the power of recontextualization. Taking something you think you know, and twisting it to make something entirely new. Sorry about the end :P
