On the other hand, Ame is drawn to the wolf side especially after he becomes friends with a wolf named Sohei. She goes to school, makes friends, and is able to hold her wolf side in with the help of a little song her Mom made up. What’s also interesting is the different trajectories of the children. She ends up moving to the country to keep them safe and learning how to farm and teach her children how to manage both sides of themselves. When the man dies Hana must figure out how to not only be a young single Mother of 2 but also raise 2 children that are of a different species from her own- one that she and everyone around her is entirely unfamiliar with. Hanna and the man end up having 2 children, Yuki and Ame who share the wolfman traits of their father. Eventually she finds out the man is a wolfman, but not the man-eating variety we see in horror movies. Wolf Children tells the story of a woman named Hana who falls in love with a mysterious man while in attending college. It’s not a loud movie but it is one of the most beautiful depictions of motherhood I’ve seen. I love Hosoda so I’m not sure why I put off seeing it but now that I have I’m delighted to tell you all that it lives up to the hype. In the world of anime fans it’s actually kind of a scandal that I haven’t seen Mamoru Hosoda’s masterpiece Wolf Children.
