A cute show which supposedly appeals to both children and adults – that was what this reviewer thought Arashi no Yoru Ni, or On A Stormy Night, was. The first of a series of novels by author Yuuichi Kimura, this is an animation about the relationship between a sheep and a wolf.
Two animals find shelter in a barn on a stormy night. Ironically, the two animals are a sheep, Mei, and a wolf, Gabu – two different species on different levels of the food chain. As they couldn’t see each other in the storm and only had their voices to rely on, the two animals somehow developed a fast friendship.
