Hana, a diligent university student, becomes enamored with an enigmatic figure who attends one of her lectures even though he is not officially enrolled. It soon becomes clear that he, too, is not human. Under a full moon, he shifts into his true form, revealing himself as the sole surviving werewolf. Yet Hana"s affection endures, and together they resolve to build a family.
They welcome two healthy offspring—Ame, who arrives on a rainy day, and Yuki, born amid snowfall—each inheriting their father"s wolf‑shifting gift. Tragedy strikes when her beloved dies abruptly, leaving Hana to shoulder the responsibility of a strange brood alone. The burden of raising feral children in an overcrowded metropolis while concealing their nature forces her to relocate to the countryside, where she hopes Ame and Yuki can thrive without society"s scrutiny. Wolf Children chronicles the tender trials of a single mother navigating an unyielding contemporary world.
