Here is a recipe based on the yakitori seen in the anime 'Wolf Children.'
Wolf Children is a touching 2012 anime film about young mother Hana who tries to raise her two half-human half-wolf children, Ame and Yuki, after the death of her werewolf husband Ookami.
The animated film won the 2013 Japan Academy Prize for Animation of the Year, the 2012 Mainichi Film Award for Best Animation Film, and the 2013 Animation of the Year award at Tokyo International Anime Fair.
It has also bagged a few awards outside Japan like the Silver Mirror and the audience award at the Oslo Films from the South festival in Norway in 2012, the 2014 Best Anime Disc award from Home Media Magazine and the Audience Award at 2013 New York International Children's Film Festival.
