Suddenly I became a fan of an anime Wolf's Rain. Ah yes ... It's not a secret that I love wolves. I didn't really watch any anime before, though I like the style, I saw only a little bit of Ranma and maybe Naruto on TV. sweatdrop But now ... 4laugh
Okay, let's see, what Wiki says about Wolf's Rain's story:
Wolf's Rain begins in Freeze City, a northern city in a world where the majority of people live in poverty and hardship. According to an old legend, when the end of the world comes, Paradise (楽園, Rakuen) will appear, however, only wolves will have access to it. Although wolves are believed to have been hunted to extinction nearly two hundred years ago, they still exist, surviving by taking human form.
Kiba, an injured lone white wolf, goes to Freeze City following the scent of the Lunar Flower, which is the key to opening Paradise. There he encounters Tsume, Hige, and Toboe, three other wolves who were drawn to Freeze City by the scent of the Lunar Flower and are now living in the city. The wolves encounter Quent Yaiden, a former Sheriff of Kyrios, obsessed with hunting down wolves, and his dog Blue. Cheza, the Flower Maiden who is destined to lead the wolves to Paradise, is being studied at a laboratory under the care of Cher Degré. She is awakened by the smell of wolf's blood. As Kiba and Hige approach the lab to find her, she is stolen away by Lord Darcia the Third, whose people created Cheza.

Here are some main characters:
Kiba (キバ, lit. "Fang" wink is a white wolf dedicated to finding the Lunar Flower and opening the way to Paradise. Kiba primarily acts on his instincts, which sometimes lead him to act rashly. Full of wolf pride, Kiba initially expresses disgust at wolves who use human disguises, but eventually realizes that it is necessary to survive.
Tsume (ツメ, lit. "Claw" wink is a gray wolf with a scar across his chest. Rough and self-reliant, Tsume is portrayed as a strong fighter who keeps his true feelings to himself. He joins the others out of boredom and does not initially believe in Paradise. Though he frequently quarrels with Kiba over their journey, he eventually comes to believe as strongly as Kiba.
Hige (ヒゲ, lit. "Whisker" wink is a tan wolf with a carefree attitude, who seems quite comfortable living in human societies. After meeting Kiba, he goes along with the idea of searching for Paradise without much argument, though he doesn't show the same passion as Kiba. Hige wears a collar around his neck that he doesn't remember how he got. He also has the strongest sense of smell in the group.
Toboe (トオボエ, Tōboe, lit. "Howling" wink is a brown wolf and the youngest of the group. He is considered a cub by the others in the early part of the series. He was raised by an old woman who found him as a very small cub outside the city, and still wears the bracelets she gave him. Due to his raising, Toboe is friendly and protective towards most humans, though he will fight them to protect himself or another member of his pack.
Cheza (チェザ, Cheza) is also called the "Flower Maiden." The wolves need Cheza to find and open the gateway to Paradise. She was created via alchemy from a Lunar Flower. Originally asleep and under study in a lab in Freeze City, Cheza is eventually able to join the wolves, whom she loves. The spilling of a wolf's blood makes Cheza scream, and she has the ability to heal and put wolves into a restful sleep through her song and touch.
