    Very 'intelligent' show. About a alternate earth wherein England became the Holy Empire of Britannia and has conquered half the world.

    Wolf's Rain:
    In some distant future, it's common knowledge that all wolves have been extinct for 200 years. However, it seems this is false as wolves have not disappeared but rather have taken human form. Kiba, a lone wolf, wanders into a city, trying to sniff out the Lunar Flowers that are supposed to lead whoever follows the scent to paradise. The source of the smell is Cheza, a girl who sleeps in what appears to be suspended animation in a lab. She and the wolves are drawn to each other, and Kiba hopes to find paradise once he finds the source of the scent of Lunar Flowers. However, once Kiba finds Cheza, she is kidnapped by a mysterious person called Darcia, and his search begins anew. Before he leaves the city, he meets 3 other wolves, Tsume, Hige and Toboe. All four wolves have very different personalities and ideas, and their friendliness towards each other is a little rough around the edges. However, they soon band together to continue to search for paradise.
    Catagories: Drama, End of the World, Friendship, hardship.
    Strong points: good characters, very strong and moving music, excellent animation.

    Hajime No Ippo:
    Makunouchi Ippo has been bullied his entire life. Constantly running errands and being beaten up by his classmates, Ippo has always dreamed of changing himself, but never has the passion to act upon it. One day, in the midst of yet another bullying, Ippo is saved by Takamura Mamoru, who happens to be a boxer. It is only then that Ippo feels something stir inside him and eventually asks Takamura to train him in boxing.
    Catagories: Sport, Comedy.

He is made headteacher of a delinquent class full of bullies, suicide-attemptees and other unmanagable teens. Eventhough he has no experience teaching or any of the required knowledge he manages to help the children with his unorthodox methods and 'never say die' attitude. He's still a 23 year old full of homones though.:icon_wink
