 one of my favorites.Aug 15, 2010
This anime is one of my dearest favorites! I even have the soundtracks >_<
I always recommend this anime for anyone getting into it or hasn't seen it yet. Amazing characters, plot, voice actors. Everything draws you in to its world.
The collection itself is great. I had received it brand new, and all discs worked.
 Not as Good as I ExpectedJul 23, 2010
I was really excited to see Wolf's Rain when I first heard about it. All of my friends that had seen it and really enjoyed the series and I am sure they would give this series a five out of five. That is not the case with me though. I expected much more from this series than what I got. My friends had me so hyped for it and in the end I was left disappointed.
This series has some decent action in it. The storyline starts off about four wolves in a waste land setting trying to find their paradise. They must overcome all sorts of challenges to reach their destination. It consists of scenes with much walking like in The Lord of the Rings, but more boring. The relationship between the characters is strong and there is atleast one character you can relate to.
Like I said before this series is not one of my favorites, but it is a solid anime series. If you like series with action and drama you may enjoy this series. Like I said though do not expect to much or you be disappointed. I do not recommend this series for people under the age of 13.
A+ Quality!Jul 02, 2010
Only one complaint, the DVDs don't have numbers to tell you which one is disc one, two, or three.

 A Struggle to Find Paradise in a Broken WorldMay 19, 2010
This is one of the most thought provoking anime series' I've ever seen. You can take it at face value and watch the series literally, or you can get yourself deep into the story and symbolism it contains. Yes, it can be confusing. After reading some of the other reviews you have probably already learned that the main characters are four wolves who can take human form. Just from that you can tell that the story is a little out there. I'm telling you now, unless you hate supernatural themes, wolves, fight scenes, and/or symbolism, you will fall in love with it. I did. I don't think it's giving too much away to say that I cried like a baby during part of it :P Although I'll admit it's kind of strange to watch them eating raw meat while still in their human form...
The animation is beautiful. I've never seen more spectacular wolves drawn on screen. The character design of the main four guys kinda makes me chuckle on occasion, in their tight pants and one of them with a rat-tail hairdo. But it's nothing that takes away from the story.
My biggest criticism is the inclusion of a DVD made entirely of recaps. Each episode starts at the beginning of the story and follows one of the characters you've met so far. I guess it's a way to learn a little bit more about the individual people in the story, but it is mainly just a distraction from the plot. By the time I had finished watching that DVD I had started to forget important details in the plot and it was a little frustrating being put back into the story and having to catch up on everything that happened and reinvest myself into the journey. Even more annoying, even with those recap episodes you don't really get to learn much about the individual characters later in the story. I think this series deserved to be much longer than it is.
So other than the pointless episodes in the middle of it, Wolf's Rain is a highly engaging story that is an artistic portrayal of a post-apocalyptic world. The simplest and easiest to identify theme of this series is something along the lines of: man destroys world, wolves are in hiding until they are driven to find paradise, man gets in the way and tries to stop them. A.K.A. people = villain, nature = victim. But that's not all it's about! It is also about redemption, hope, companionship, and perseverance.
I would recommend this series if you're looking for a unique story with serious themes and artistic animation. Did I mention the wolves are BEAUTIFUL?! :D
