Title: Wolf's Rain
Publisher: Bones
Type of Anime: TV
Genre: Fantasy, Drama

Story:
Legends also talk of how wolves know where Paradise lies at the end of the world. However, wolves are mythical creatures thought to have become extinct 200 years ago. Well, that’s not exactly true. Wolves have learned to adapt themselves when around humans by taking human form. Through this method, they have been living in cities and towns along humans for the last two centuries.
Wolf’s Rain follows four such wolves who have decided they’ve had enough of city life and that it’s time to seek Paradise for themselves. They follow the scent of the Flower Daughter, a girl held captive in a human lab until she is kidnapped by a mysterious figure.
After 5 episodes, I’d have to say that Wolf’s Rain is very good, although very melodramatic. It’s not going to win any awards for the feel good anime of the year and there tends to be a lot of blood and fighting amongst the wolves themselves and between the human/wolf community. Many wolves have lost the will to live and/or seek Paradise for themselves, and thereby settle for remaining mere street dogs. Others are rebels or in street gangs working desperately to maintain their status quo.
Animation:
Very nice. Some scenes have that more washed out watercolor feel to it, while others are vibrant.
Music:
The theme song has that hairband 80s feel to it. It’s called Stray: vocals by Steve Conte and music by Yoko Kanno. It’s not really my taste. The ending song is a lovely, slow song by Maya Sakamoto, who did much of the Escaflowne soundtrack.
Character Design:
Apparently all the main wolf characters take their name from a characteristic of a wolf. Kiba = Fang, Tsume = Claw, Hige = Whiskers, Toboe = Howling. It should be interesting to see how these meanings reflect the characters...
