Was not expecting to enjoy this as much as I did.

This is actually mostly broken up into two sections. The first is about some type of creature falling from the sky, becoming a rock, then transforming into a wolf who had died, and then the wolf goes home to meet a boy who's one goal is to make it to a society since he's stranded in the cold with no one around. So their mission is to go out and try to make it. The 2nd half is about a little girl wanting to grow up but she instead is being sacrificed to a ancient bear in which will protect the village from more attacks.

These two stories connect in a surprising way that I won't spoil here. I also really loved the first half, as the ending hit me like a fucking train with emotions. The 2nd half is quite good too, with a lot of heart, and a bit of sadness. I really enjoyed the art too and some interesting designs for characters. The only negative is there is a shift here, and it takes time to get used to.

I really enjoyed this and right away ordered volume 2-5 online because I want more. I hope this story remains as good. A 4 out of 5.
