A sad and excellent anime film

A couple years ago, there was a story book series called, "Arashi No Yoru Ni (One Stormy Night)". It was the story about a goat named, Mei, who becomes friends with a Wolf named, Gabu. But soon, they have trouble trying to stay friends because Gabu's Wolf pack eats Goats.

In 2005, Japan released an anime adaptation of the story books and it became very popular in Japan.

The film has a nice story and it kinda reminds me of Pocahontas except with no kissing nor love connections and it has animals. The animation is also lovely because it combines hand-drawn animation with water-colored backgrounds and some CG. The film also has some good voice acting mostly because it had Shido Nakamura (The guy that did the voice of Ryuk in the Japanese version of, Death Note, and he played Lieutenant Ito in, Letters from Iwo Jima) as the voice of Gabu.

"Arashi No Yoru Ni (One Stormy Night)", is a great anime film that's filled with emotion and heart.
