The Okami-san (Japanese: オオカミさん) series is a collection of Japanese light novels by Masashi Okita, with illustrations by Unaji. The series started with the release of the first volume in August 2006 titled Okami-san & her Seven Companions (オオカミさんと七人の仲間たち, Ōkami-san to Shichinin no Nakama-tachi), and as of January 2011, 12 volumes have been published by ASCII Media Works under their Dengeki Bunko imprint. A manga adaptation by Kurumi Suzushiro started serialization in the April 2010 issue of ASCII Media Works' shōnen manga magazine Dengeki Daioh. A 12-episode anime adaptation by J.C.Staff aired in Japan on AT-X between July 1 and September 16, 2010, and has been licensed and dubbed into English by Funimation Entertainment to be aired on American network television and released to DVD.[1][2][3] The English-dubbed version of the anime adaptation was subsequently licensed and distributed by Madman Entertainment and Manga Entertainment to Australia and the United Kingdom, respectively.[4][5]

Plot

Set in the fictional Otogibana City, Okami-san & her Seven Companions follows the lives of Ryoko Okami (the eponymous Okami-san) and her friends, or companions, throughout their service as members of a "trading" club known as the Otogi High School Bank. At the start of the series, Ryoko and her partner, Ringo, are on a routine service assignment when an unseen stranger assists them. The following day, Ryoko encounters a boy in her class named Ryōshi Morino, a secret admirer of hers, on her way home from school. After being confronted by Ryoko, Ryōshi confesses his love for her and that he had been following her, a confession that is immediately turned down by Ryoko on the basis that he is weak. However, Ryōshi vows that he will become strong enough to be worthy to stand by her side. Later on in the series and with the help of the bank, Ryoko and Ringo discover that Ryōshi was the person who helped them on their service assignment and Ryōshi aids the pair in a fight on another service assignment, thereby prompting Ryoko to accept Ryōshi as someone who she can trust to watch her back. The series progresses in this manner as Ryoko develops romantic feelings for Ryōshi, while also parodying fairy tales such as "Little Red Riding Hood", "The Ant and the Grasshopper", "The Tortoise and the Hare", "Cinderella", "Hansel and Gretel", "The Little Match Girl", and so on.

Characters

Otogi Bank

The main characters are part of a high school club called the Otogi Bank. The bank is an organization which sends its members to solve issues from various students seeking help, who then incur debts that they must repay with favors at the Otogi Bank's discretion.[6] Ryoko is a member of the club, and her seven companions are the other members of the club at the start of the series (Ryoshi joins the club in the first episode but is not one of Ryoko's seven companions).

Ryoko Okami (大神 涼子, Ōkami Ryōko)
Voiced by: Shizuka Itō[7] (Japanese); Brina Palencia[8] (English)
A tomboyish high school girl who is fierce like a wolf and fights thugs using special Neko Neko Knuckles developed by one of the members of the Otogi Bank, Majolica le Fay. In everyday life, she maintains a strong, dismissive facade to disguise her true self: a kind person that is quite fearful of particular things. Although generally hostile towards Ryōshi due to his cowardice, she accepts him as someone who can watch her back in fights soon after they first fight together. As the series progresses, she develops romantic feelings for Ryōshi, going as far as to dream about him, but continues to treat him roughly. Because of this, Ryoko's character fits into the tsundere category of anime idioms. In addition, she is a close friend of Ringo Akai, whom she met shortly after leaving her junior high and was the first person that she befriended in Otogibana City. When her boyfriend Shirō attempted to rape her, he tricked everyone she knew into thinking that she was the one responsible for it. Unable to convince them of the truth, she left her junior high. Ryoko is based on the wolf from the various fairy tales, such as "Little Red Riding Hood", though on several occasions she is shown to be very different from her base character.
Ryoshi Morino (森野 亮士, Morino Ryōshi, also Ryoshi)
Voiced by: Miyu Irino[7] (Japanese); Joel McDonald[8] (English)
A shy boy who cowers when confronted by other people and so keeps his distance. It is explained in the anime that he suffers from ophthalmophobia, a fear of people staring at him.[9] He has a crush on Ryoko and following a failed confession to her, he is somehow enrolled into Otogi Bank, where the others hope to use his low noticeability to avoid being detected. However, Ryōshi is much braver when hidden in darkness, and fights from afar using a wrist-mounted slingshot armed with pachinko balls with extreme precision, as shown when he knocks a baseball flying in midair about to hit Otsū. He is also known to perform well in fist fights if Ryoko is in danger. He is based on the hunter in the fairytale "Little Red Riding Hood" who captures the wolf or Okami-san.
Ringo Akai (赤井 林檎, Akai Ringo)
Voiced by: Kanae Itō[7] (Japanese); Monica Rial[8] (English)
A petite red-haired girl who has been longtime friends with Ryoko. She is the one who recruits Ryōshi into Otogi Bank. She is a close friend of Ryoko Okami, and is always trying to involve herself with her best friend's love life. Like Ryoko, she tends to smile to hide her true feelings, and admires Ryoko for trying to become stronger. She is based on the Little Red Riding Hood from the folktale of the same name, though some aspects of her scheming, manipulative personality closer resemble the poisoned apple ("Ringo" means apple) of Snow White, a fact which is occasionally referenced by the narrator and other characters. She is also the half sister of "Snow White" Shirayuki Himeno and feels responsible for her past. However, thanks to Ryoko, she moves on from the past. Aiden Foote of THEM Anime Reviews describes her as the "most conniving of all Lolitas and frequently referred to as evil by the dry voiced and witted narrator."
Liszt Kiriki (桐木 リスト, Kiriki Risuto, also Liszt)
Voiced by: Hirofumi Nojima[7] (Japanese); Micah Solusod[8] (English)
Liszt is the president of Otogi Bank; he is described as clever and laid-back, but resourceful.[6] He sometimes disguises himself and cross-dresses in order to gather information. He is based on the grasshopper in "The Ant and the Grasshopper".[6]

Voiced by: Yui Horie[7] (Japanese); Terri Doty[8] (English)

Voiced by: Ayako Kawasumi[7] (Japanese); Colleen Clinkenbeard[10] (English)
The club's maid who has an obsession for returning favors.[6] When she was young, she was saved from a car accident by a boy who died before she could thank him, resulting in her having a fear of not being able to return a favor. She is based on the crane from the Japanese tale Tsuru no Ongaeshi.
Taro Urashima (浦島 太郎, Urashima Tarō)
Voiced by: Shintaro Asanuma[7] (Japanese); Todd Haberkorn[8] (English)
A first-year transfer student who is a year older than the rest of the gang. He acts as a playboy[6] and sometimes flirts with girls although he has a girlfriend, Otohime.

Otohime Ryugu (竜宮 乙姫, Ryūgū Otohime)
Voiced by: Aki Toyosaki[7] (Japanese); Caitlin Glass[11] (English)
A girl with an obsessive crush on Tarō,[6] who cares for her greatly but on some occasions is scared of her. It was thanks to Tarō's motivation that she changed from a chubby bullied elementary student to a thin beauty.[11] Although Tarō often runs from her advances, he does have special feelings for her, and can even be considered her boyfriend. She is based on Princess Otohime from the Japanese tale Urashima Tarō. The reason she is called turtle is because Otohime from the legend was a turtle on land when she met Tarō. Her relationship with Mimi Usami is related to the fable, The Tortoise and the Hare.[11]
Majolica le Fay (マジョーリカ・ル・フェイ, Majōrika Ru Fei, also Majolica)

She appears in the last episode of the anime, attempting to win over Ryoshi. She and her father had been in serious debt, so she had been working towards paying off their debt. Her reason was so she could marry into his family, as she believed he was rather wealthy after seeing him outside his aunt's boarding complex with his "expensive" dogs. Later, when Ryoshi protects her from a group of debt collectors, she begins to really develop a crush on him. She becomes the newest resident of the boarding complex where Ryoshi lives and was able to let go of him after hearing just how much Ryoko meant to him.

Believing she can marry out of poverty, Machiko confronts Ryōshi in class the following day and asks him to marry her. Later, to further her plans, she requests a date with him through the Otogi Bank. Ringo manipulates Ryōko's feelings for Ryōshi and gets her to follow him on his date, hoping that she will be more honest about herself. The date progresses well when Machiko abruptly ends it. A confused Ryōshi leaves but returns in time to save Machiko from loan sharks. A grateful Machiko reveals her motives for the date and proposal, which is that she has been paying off the family debt with the money from her part-time job, but her father ran away with the latest payment. Ryōshi, angry, not at Machiko, but at the situation life has put her in, calls the Otogi Bank to arrange matters. The loan sharks reappear and Ryōshi takes them on with Ryōko joining the fight unexpectedly. After the debt collectors are arrested, the Otogi Bank pays off Machiko's debt and arranges for her to become a tenant at the Otohashi residence. That evening, at Machiko's housewarming party, Machiko wants to confess again but before she can, Ryōshi tells Machiko that he can be manly because of Ryōko, who happens to be eavesdropping. Machiko later bluntly asks Ryōko if she likes him and agrees to back off when, true to her nature, she says that she does not dislike him.
