"The wolf is the messenger of the gods."
"The wolf created man from a part of himself."
Why can only the wolf open the door to paradise? Why is Paradise a world with only wolves?
There is no god in the world of Wolf Rain. The wolf in "Wolf Rain" is a god.
Disney's children's films let animals speak and think in human ways, so those animals are actually just "people in animal skins"; but "Wolf Rain" is different.
Even if the wolves in "Wolf Rain" appear as human beings, even if they have more or less human warmth in their characters, but in the process of watching the film, you can feel all the time that they have nothing to do with them. Undoubtedly a wolf.
Proud, stately, godlike, wolf.
Contrast that with humans.
The "human" as a whole concept in "Wolf Rain" seems to be shaped to bring out the wolf. Those numb and dull creatures make people wonder where the noble qualities that the wolf gave to their ancestors have been wiped out. . As for those nobles, those nobles who can sacrifice countless fresh lives as blood sacrifices to open the illusion of their own love and hatred, their souls are contaminated with poisons that cannot be cleaned up by either love or hatred.
However, there will always be noble hearts awakened on the eve of eternal catastrophe. It may be more painful to watch the end of this apocalypse soberly than to die in chaos. But it was a definite death. A death that knows the meaning of death, a death without regrets. Shell is like this, Habu is like this, even the old hunter who started with hatred and ended with love, isn't that the case?
Therefore, the wolf is indeed the messenger of God. When the destruction of the world is imminent, it will come to the world, for the wolf and the human being, to open the paradise of rebirth after nirvana.
Therefore, humans are indeed the creation of wolves. The noble echoes of wolf nature still reverberate in human blood, and the bond between wolves and humans is far from what Darcia calls "degenerate".
Although he knew he couldn't enter the paradise, he still insisted on "going as far as possible". The wolf's character of never giving up when he knew his goal has been resurrected in his chest; At that time, is he protecting a prudence of commitment, or an insistence on all pure attachments?
At the end of the world, on a silent journey accompanied by humans and wolves, Darcia appeared in the form of a giant wolf who was obstructing him. In an instant, the boundaries between wolves and humans seemed to blur.
What is a wolf? What is a person? Is pedigree still such an absolute thing? In other words, humans are actually wolves, and wolves are humans?
Perhaps rather, the line between wolves and all species blurred in that instant. Blue is half-dog blood - no one knows what a sad story there is. But after seeing Jiesa, she added a strong wolf color to her character as a dog. Fighting, running, dignity and loyalty - if there is no absolute boundary between humans and wolves, why should they be called "loyal dogs" and "degenerate" for the loyalty of their masters?
So in "Wolf Rain", the wolf nature I see is actually more of an abstract, ancient and noble flash of human nature. That is the wild call that human beings have been given but have long forgotten: dignity and pride, trust and companionship, persistence and pursuit.
The gift of the wolf is actually the gift of God.
If humanity's abandonment of this wolf-derived divinity is a lost paradise that gradually slips away and eventually runs out of control, then the struggle they (or at least some of them) to stand up at the last moment, I see clearly in it I caught a glimpse of the unyielding Yoshimitsu Kata Yu who was fighting with the hope of returning to Paradise.
It seems to be the bloodline of the wolf that has been flowing in the bloodline for generations. In the seemingly endless dormancy, it broke free from the shackles and woke up to the pride of the moon howl.
God said: "Make man in our image."
A part of a wolf is still a wolf. Even if the dust-mud filth obscures that noble color, it will someday shine brightly.
So I finally understood why there are only wolves in Paradise.
It is the shining of all the noble souls that are immortal.
