Wolf’s Rain – Stray Dog Freedom

Just beautiful.
In a not-too-distant future, humanity has ruined most of the world. Divided into fractions controlled by rich Nobles they do their best to lead happy lives crawling in the dirt. They wage wars for more power, unable to learn from past mistakes. They steal, they hurt, they kill.
And in their midsts are the wolves. Acting as humans through illusions they fight for their survival, the humans thinking they’re extinct. Myths. And then one wolf picks up the scent of a flower, knowing that said flower will somehow point him in the direction of Paradise. And he’s prepared to sacrifice everything to get there, just because he doesn’t have anything to lose.
Setting out on his journey to find the flower, to find Paradise, he comes across new friends, new enemies and new wonders. Holding his head high he’s prepared to pay the ultimate price to keep on living as a wolf, as a hunter. Not prey.
And he knows, that according to prophecies, the world will end once he finds it. But he couldn’t care less about the world. The world’s controlled by filthy humans, in Paradise the wolves reign supreme.
Wolf’s Rain is fantastic.
‘Nuf said.

I realize I need to rewatch this. There are so many things that I seem to remember wrong.
Thanks for giving me a tip to rewatch
From what I do remember is that the OP is great and character designs are wonderful and beautiful.
