Wolf Rain Vol 1 Bones Toshitsugu Lida Books
I am an avid fan of the anime series and I was severely disappointed by how different they made the manga. The ending was very loosely planned and hardly as beautiful as the ending in the anime series. Aside from that, the new story was alright. The book was in good condition as well.

Wolf Rain Vol 1 Bones Toshitsugu Lida Books Reviews
In a dying world, there are some that know of a place to escape to known as "Paradise" where life can be restarted. But it's not the humans that know of this place. The wolves, once thought to have been extinct for 200 years, are the only ones that know how to get to it. But they need a guide. The "Flower Maiden", Cheza, whose is said to have been born of a Lunar Flower, is that guide.
But she is being held by human scientists in a lab in a coma-like state. Meanwhile, wolves, attracted by her scent have begun to gather in the city. They can move among the population because they have an unexplained ability to appear as humans. Kiba has come looking for Paradise. Tsume roams with human gangs, robbing the Nobles. Toboe is wandering aimlessly, looking for companionship after being raised as a dog and having his owner die. Hige too has been drawn by the Lunar Flower scent. But the wolves have been followed as well by a ruthless hunter known as Quent who has vowed to kill every wolf he finds. When Cheza awakens, the long and tragic quest for Paradise begins.
This manga is based on the 30 episode anime of the same name and being a 2 volume manga, you know that most of the story is going to be left out of the book. I didn't really find any complaints about the manga though I would suggest watching the anime before reading this so you won't be left with any holes in the plot. The art was great, maybe a little TOO well done, so that there isn't a lot of pacing in the rigid drawings, but the layout makes up for this some. It's been so long since I watched the series that I found this volume a welcome reminescence of a show that was ultimately kept from greatness by its flawed ending.
I haven't read all of the Wolf's Rain manga yet, but the first thing that is important to note is that this is the first volume of a two-volume tie-in series to the anime show. Obviously, since the entire manga series is only two volumes long, a lot of the pacing and characterization of the TV show will, by necessity be absent. One of the things I enjoyed so much about the show is that it had a lot of stretched out, low-key sequences used to set a unique, somber yet jazzy mood (unlike Cowboy Bebop, to which this series is frequently connected, which could be just as manic as it was depressive). Instead the manga focuses on action and, more significantly, on the primary characters of the series. If a lot of your interest in the series comes out of the look, feel and music of the series you'd be best served by picking up the DVD's of the show.
Still, the manga in itself isn't a bad work. It doesn't strive to be anything above a fairly typical manga outing. Unlike the Cowboy Bebop tie-in manga, this one stays fairly close to a retelling of the series and, most importantly, the art style is very similar to Toshihiro Kawamoto's superb character designs (which was my most primary disappointment in Yutaka Nanten's Cowboy Bebop work).
For its' price (only $20 for both books, when the next one is released) you get a pretty decent taste of the series as well as a supplement for fans of the show. While the book didn't exceed my expectations, it is hardly a disappointment.
Also, as a nice bonus, in the back of the book you get five pages of character designs with commentary, two full-page pinups, and a page of annotations (which, thankfully, appear to be more common as of late in a lot of manga).
YEs!!! This book was in great shape when i got it and it got here pretty fast to. Very nice!! Would buy from this person again!!
I've already watched the series awhile back so I had to get the manga. It came quickly. I loved it!
really great book a very nice read art work is amazing what more is there to say?
You get more out of the TV show, but fans of this will enjoy it. I'm not a graphic novel fan, but I am such a Wolf's Rain fan I had to get it! Read it in 15 minutes. Now what?
