I discovered this anime because of the April Fools joke on MyAnimeList where my profile picture had been changed to one of the characters from this anime. As a joke I added it to my PTW Plan to Watch list and there it stayed for over a year.
Then I finally decided to watch something different and found it on my list. I decided to give it a chance especially since I found the complete movie on YouTube which definitely helped.
STORY
The movie begins with the tragic death of the protagonists mother Mei a goat. We are introduced to the films world a simple world of animals and their food chain. There are many films with the same setting/theme so its not hard to be familiar with it.
As the title of the movie suggests the main event and where everything changes is when the two protagonists Gabu a wolf and Mei are caught off guard by a storm and end up hiding in a barn unaware of each others identities. Because of this they become friends and agree to meet the next day. And so begins the story of an interspecies friendship a forbidden friendship as the norm is for the wolf to eat the goat.

Here Ill start discussing parts later in the movie so there will be spoilers.
THE FORBIDDEN FRIENDSHIP
As I mentioned earlier their friendship is one of the highest points of the anime and it brings a lot of emotion to the viewer. I can summarize the anime in a few words and they would be: interesting cute and beautiful.
Despite a simple story its journey is the complex part and although the ending wasnt that great to my personal taste it has a nice conclusion.
I recommend this movie to anyone with nothing to do on a lazy afternoon and especially to sensitive people like me
Watch and enjoy
