Ookami Kodomo no Ame to Yuki

Hana was a student before she was a mother. She was bright and beautiful, and her future held countless possibilities. Then she met a man, who was a wolf, and together they formed a family.

Hana loved her mate fiercely, but fate took him away from her, leaving her alone with two unusual children she didn't know how to raise. Afraid of being discovered, Hana and her wolf children fled to the countryside to build a new life.

Raising her little wild things was an adventure. This left Hana bruised, scratched, exhausted and blissfully overwhelmed as her pups grew stronger and wandered further each day. This is a mother's journey.

Teach your children to chase their dreams – and smile through your tears as they disappear into the world in search of who they will be. Hana wasn't always a mother, but she was always what she was supposed to be.

I Want to Eat Your Pancreas

A very captivating, interesting and unexpected ending anime film. It shows the change of the protagonist who leads a monotonous and boring life, how his growth took a while and how it affected his life.

An unnamed protagonist finds a diary in a hospital one day. The diary belongs to his classmate, a girl named Sakura Yamauchi, who is revealed to be terminally ill with her pancreas and has only a few months to live.

Sakura explains that the protagonist is the only person besides his family who knows about his condition. The protagonist promises to keep Sakura's secret. Despite their completely opposite personalities, the protagonist decides to stay together with Sakura during her final months.
