One Stormy Night (Arashi no Yoru ni: Himitsu no Tomodachi)

[mirkosp]

"Stormy Night" is based on Yuichi Kimura's extraordinary best-selling picture books, which has won loyal followers from kindergarteners to grandparents. Gisaburo Sugii, whose major credits include "Night on the Milky Way Railroad" and "Touch" directs this animated film.

Gav and Mei, a wolf and a goat, meet by chance, developing a friendship that transcends the natural enmity between predator and prey. Gav is tormented by his literally "wolfish" instincts and Mei only compounds his troubles. Mei's flock and Gav's pack hover in the background poised to tear the two apart.

You might already know this from the book or from the movie. The movie is an alternate telling of the book and was done by a completely different staff, however I believe you can discuss both in this thread, if you so wish, as comparison on how things were done in this series vs the old movie adaptation would make sense here. It's not like it would make sense to give the movie its own thread anyway.
