Wolf's Rain - Friends

[@MsYanaGirl]

I choke up every time I hear this song. I've come to a point where I can't even listen to it all the way through anymore. It's so precious and winsome, yet incredibly sad...

[@doctorwilliamb777]

Love you

[@Kweeeh]

This song is so beautiful and bittersweet, that I always feel sadness but also joy when I listen to it. Somehow it also reminds me of my first cat, who I basically grew up with. I was two years old when she came into our family, a shy kitten, that became a sweet, loyal and the best pet a child could ever dream of. I was a lonely child because there were not so many kids in our neighborhood and my sisters are much older than I. But she was there, keeping me company with her gentle soul. Some say that cats are selfish or don’t care about their owners, but as far as I can remember, she slept every night beside me and purred, followed me everywhere, and even waited for me in our yard (before someone gets mad... It was 90’s and we lived in a countryside) when I came home from school. Because of Niki, I learned to love all animals deeply. She lived 18 happy years and passed away over ten years ago, and some days I still miss her. She was my friend, and every time I hear this song, it reminds me of her and all the good memories we had together. Friends, indeed.

[@oqueestou]

Man, listening to this while the anime shows you Toboe's death during the sunset is just chillingly amazing!

[@Zetsuwei]

I felt that

[@327legoman]

Toboe will always go down in history for me. I remember at the start disliking him... But by the end he and Quient where the most relatable and went so well together.

[@OrangeLightning12]

Those last episodes made me cry so much, this song makes me tear up to.

[@FeyVelurah]

This anime was so fucking sad.

[@holl3iemarie]

but also so beautiful

[@Jeffrey2488]

This song has stayed with me for years. There are moment of sadness when I will hear a few notes of this song in my head. Sad, but comforting. Thanks for sharing.

[@doctorwilliamb777]

1:30.... just... warm shivers. If a soul could have a song this would be my soul's song. So bitter sweet and yet some how still beautiful positive. Like the story maybe near the end but there can still be plenty of hope and positive anticipation right up to the end

[@nimbuskahn]

Song makes me cry almost immediately. This anime had such an impact on me, it never ceases to amaze me.

[@cyrencry]

This piece was when Hige and Blue reunited, such a cute scene!

[@toboesnumber1fan]

I bawled my eyes out for about 3 days after watching this! Toboe! Wolf's Rain all the way!

[@crazypopify]

Yeah they did play it, and same here, its amazing what just a song can do to you. :'(

[@raynesilver]

this anime will always have a special seat in my heart

[@hanavaj]

This anime was soo sad, i cried watching it in tears. Long live the wolves.!

[@maizeful]

I find it amazing that whenever I play this song, I can't just stop it, I have to let it run through. So much emotion in this piece. :')

[@Buckley6696]

Non ho mai pianto così tanto...e continuo a farlo anche dopo anni, per questo anime...

[@Freesia92]

Ora come ora è l'unico anime che riguarderei con piacere...

[@Silberblume]

The soundtrack on the series is just so awesome..and makes me cry sometimes... ._.

[@inneedanddepression6616]

This song fits to my emotions so well. Every time i hear it, i have to cry. It is still beautiful melancholic

[@jamsters13]

I love this anime! I wish they had a season two!! Love this song!

[@alexanderr.f.1840]

Esta pequeña pieza es simplemente magistral, estremecedora y emocional en todo sentido, la banda sonora de este anime no tiene comparación, larga vida a esta preciosa historia.

[@dinofedex3812]

Hace poco por fin encontré este anime y al terminarlo su bella música seguía dentro de mi. Sin duda la banda sonora aquí es única

[@meilamei1148]

Este anime me quedo de por vida, y su música ahora me acompaña a donde voy

[@jonathanrenteria7935]

está canción contiene no solo recuerdos si no historia que no se olvida nunca, es por eso que siempre volvemos para recordar a esos 4 personajes que nos sacaron una sonrisa pero también una lágrima al irse con una pequeña parte de nuestras vidas

[@safir263]

without doubt one of the best animes i've ever seen. the music is even comparable to Final Fantasy and alot of the Sonic Adventure 2: Battle cutscene music. just conveys its message so so well. The ending made me cry, almost.

[@mclovins4208]

2:43 just makes me feel like I’m an old man sitting on my porch with my wife watching the sunrise/ sunset as I start thinking about the things I’ve done, seen and been to, and I think I’ve had a good life and accept this will be where I spend the last of my days

[@SpookyLukeOG]

i think it's slightly sad that i associate most my happt memories with animes and games ive played(FF7) but at the same time im grateful i had that influence in my life it made me a better person and taught me many things :)

[@deltavoyage]

This may be my favorite piece in all of Wolf's Rain.

[@C0gislayer]

its time to rewatch it

[@dalanieward5081]

some people say there is no place as parsdise.but i belive if you keep looking youll find it one day.

[@hepseed]

Thank you love this tune

[@Joy1342]

[@STAY.SheWolf]

It’s 2024 and this song still makes me cry like it’s 2004.

[@IloveANIMEdoYOU]

The second I heard this I started SPEWING tears. I remembered this piece from episode 29.... T.T

[@chakib4391]

Never Seen an anime such Poetic, such beautiful and such sad and deep , m'y favorite of all Time

[@bhetherington52]

OMG!! one of my favorite songs ^^ it brings me to tears...so beautiful ^^

[@envybb]

Whneever I hear this I feel like just walking out of my house and walking, not really walking anywhere just walking. Believeing that their is a paradise

[@theprayingwolf]

T-T.....that´s so beautiful...wonderful song, I think it´s one of the best in the Anime...somehow it makes me sad..... Awesome vid!

[@firekeeper9998]

[@twelve2001]

[@MoveAlongGirl]

Such a beautiful song! This one lulls me to sleep every night.

[@matteusbarbosa8738]

So sad....But so beautiful at the same time...

[@pattycole269]

I love this show wolf's rain awesome

[@Siragri]

Such music tell me to go on. I will never give up. Well, I don't like Kiba. But one thing is awesome of him: He was a fighter. He was still alive. And this is amazing of him. Because of this I like Kiba a bit.

[@XY15lite]

Wonderful sad song. I love it.

[@Dwarfwitch]

love it and the song and the picthurs... love it!

[@RiderOfTheRohirrim]

@t misty wolf your totally right. i cied alot at the last episodes but this song reminds me there is always light at the end of the road no matter how long you have to walk, one day you find your own dream. your own paradise. thumps up if you agree.

[@VerityDemortem]

*Misses characters* I need to watch this anime again.

[@jsaintil]

me too. its so heart wrenchingly beautiful. it was so sad when toboe died.

[@bridgettebailey4697]

Sweet song 😢sad too like it deeply.

[@WolfL3GEND88]

I listened to this song while watching an aurora, somehow I survived the whole night, 25° below zero. I was home, I was at peace.

[@loveshorses312]

It just makes me feel like... something i love so dearly and so so much has died, and in hte middle makes me feel that its all coming back to me and everything i need is all back especialy my loved one.(:

[@miguelgil2172]

uufff amazing

[@offsetkarlos]

this is a beautiful song it inspires me 2 the best that i can n all that i do

[@queenofhearts17]

this song always makes me so sad...=/

[@jsaintil]

touching slide show. yoko is a genius

[@tabbynakamura]

Aw! Baby Kiba picture! Is it just me or is he adorable as a puppy?

[@Werelion2367]

What they all have in common is that they were all searching for their own paradise: Darcia bringing back his loved one. Jagura creating the perfect city on earth. The Walrus understanding self importance/endurance

[@Shandaro777Hit]

i remember this song ! when toboe died and tsume was talking to him ! :D

[@semple333]

one of my fave... so touching T.T

[@SavMortem]

@Kedislol Bravo, well spoken. Some of us live for that drive for that unknown pull to what we need to do and where we need to be. I would rather die searching for it than live in a meaningless human existence. So that is what I'll do, search or die trying.

[@Bountywolf8]

man i wish i was a wolf that would make me very happy!!!

[@Bountywolf8]

ssssssssooooooooooo a fave!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it makes me feel sad :(

[@CedarRapidsResident]

This song is so sad I wish nobody died

[@TheChaos101]

[@MegaWolffreak22]

i cryed the first time i heared it!!!:D

[@albertc5080]

so touching...

[@ScreamsOfAgony106]

it is time.

[@Kiwey101]

Love it ♥

[@DailyRandomsisters]

This is awesome

[@waya121]

If you turn this track loud enough, you can hear the person playing the flute taking deep breath in the pauses. It sounds, almost as if a man is crying. At least thats what i thought i heard the first time heh. ;p

[@mistywolf1]

This is to the wolf's rain wolves: You are amazing. You are beautiful, selfless creatures that care about one another and help each other through hard times. You are the greatest friends one could want. I love the whole pack. R.I.P, Kiba, Tsume, Toboe, Hige, Cheza, and Blue. "Lets meet again...next time, in Paradise."

[@LUCYundNYU]

omg !!!! Kiba as little puppy soooo mega cute :D

[@AlexandruCarcalicea]

i love wolf's rain!

[@kajkafriedova4572]

Paradise. I think it does exist... but it's the place where you go, when you die...

[@twelve2001]

anything yoko kanno composes is just great

[@MegaWolffreak22]

great vid!

[@Zeintoku9]

I love youuu Kiba!! and I like the wolves... but this melody it's sad... T_T

[@xRedAppleGreenApple]

Daw.....Toboe! lol I've been hard at work trying to learn this song on the piano and so far so good...

[@lilmamagc]

I watched this anime in highschool. Now I'm 27. I haven't rewatched it since then, but I want to. Not sure if I'm ready for the heartbreak, as I'm very sensitive.

[@Kovu3]

Let’s meet again, next time in Paradise 🐺🌺

[@victoriabandicoot4063]

My fav, makes me think about my friends. I am so glad that Kiba and others are returned to life to search for paradise again, this time to find it without Darcia, but idk why Blue isn't returned, or she's just not showed to be returned?

[@AleXinoS725]

Awesome.

[@KiddyCat95]

One can understand the video really, if you know what happens at the end. And I tell you see only the end and the beginning sucks, you really have to know what happened at the end. It is beautiful but also very sad ... everytime I see the video, I remember why I like the series so.

[@Gsxrchick79]

They should do a soundtrack of all the unreleased music. There's a version of this that played during episode four; acoustic guitar, I believe. Not as good as this version, but it still sounds nice.

[@smeagolsesshluva]

another favorite. i really wish someone would transcribe the piano notes. id die to play this song.

[@CaptainSparrowGirl]

i love it!!!!!!!

[@kittylol123]

cute little kiba in the beginning

[@AlexandruCarcalicea]

coool vid and song.

[@queenofhearts17]

yes indeed i will

[@Youw0tgetit]

This is a song about four wolf's. or better yet best friends who went in search of paradise, but however insted found themselves. they all died at the gates of paradise to experiance what paradise was all about but little did they no that they saved the other life for everyone. and creatid a cycle for the next life but failed so it will happen all over again. But who knows, maybe they will find paradise this time, and maybe even go there.

[@Kedislol]

To Contrel: You may understand paradise as perfection and the whole plot as a strive for perfection; you might consider either as utopic and therefore, pathetic. But then again... dreams, objectives, things you do with or without reason, mistakes or proud acts - what are they? Not everything needs a reason, sometimes all you need is a (sometimes deeper) meaning, which you don't quite understand.

[@SpookyLukeOG]

@Kedislol maybe its just a deep belief in something as they say its not whether or not you achive enlightenment or make it to paradise but the decisions and actions you make to get there, i enjoyed your comment thoroughly ^_^.

[@Tak9009]

when i hear this sond its like i'm going in a other world.

[@LinkXToboeXAmaterasu]

My favourite part is 1.40 to 2.46, but all of it is beautiful! Is there anyway I can get the slightly different version of this song that plays during episode 26 when Kiba is fighting Jagura?

[@Bountywolf8]

:'( it make me cry love the vid (if this was posible 100/5)

[@Tharodon]

1:35 - 2:40 best part cause it realy makes me sad :C thats also the part where Kiba's soul got back to his Body and even at the end of Lady Jagara

[@elianeceriez9430]

eliane. prachtige tekeningepn en muziek,zalig

[@jesstemby7860]

1:40

[@tabbynakamura]

@TheEverStray That's why he's cute! Who doesn't love chubby puppies?!

[@SpookyLukeOG]

i think its sad that i associate most my good memories with animes or games (FF7) but i also think its good because intsilled moralls in me that no one else could even if they where around

[@gundamnmechas8518]

Toboe :'(

[@user-xb7dp4vu3r]

Gundamn Mechahunter poor Toboe..

[@georgiabk]

yes this song is so beautiful! does anyone know where i can find the piano manuscript for it?

[@toboesnumber1fan]

OMG!!! I cried for days on end after seeing this! Why did they have to die?!?!?!!!!!!!!!!! I also know this is off the subject, but have you noticed that in every anime, people or animals die on the last episode?
