Synopsis

Humans thought the wolves died off two centuries ago in this bleak post-apocalyptic wasteland. But some survivors lurk among the humans by mentally cloaking their animal bodies. One white wolf, Kiba, scours the land for the scent of the Lunar Flower that will lead them all to Paradise...but will it lead them to a deadly false legend?

You literally cannot adapt a 30-episode anime into a two-volume manga. It’s not possible and they never should have tried.

The art is shoddy. It’s ugly and the wolves look like furry logs with furry stick legs. It’s a disrespect to the BONES team’s beautiful animation.

They took maybe a couple of the main scenes in the anime (but not even the important ones) and redrew them. It’s basically a storyboard of a couple of scenes thrown together into a book and called a manga adaptation. ...
