Oh, the girls in their class are so annoying lol
Kyo is really cute but he needs to calm down yo
I laughed so hard at the end scene when Kyo said Tohru's cooking is bad and the whole thing turned monochrome and we could hear Shigure mixing his natto haha

I really enjoyed this episode. I find the interactions between the characters so intense and nuanced, they feel very real and I feel like we are going to discover a depth of personalities I have a hard time finding in animes. Reminds me a bit of Kimi Ni Todoke for that. Looking forward to the third episode!

I think I just got the gay because of Kyo. Who knew a male violent tsundere with anger issues could be this adorable?

Fruits Basket has been breaking the internet so I figured it's time to start this. First impressions are great, I love the cast so far and tohru and kyo stand out as being the 2 best. Through the first 2 episodes this is just giving me some really good vibes

Seeing how adorable the animal forms are makes me really want to see the forms of the other family members. Kyo really has a tunnel vision issue if he dropped out of school to train in order to beat Yuki in a fight lol.

dunno if the pace was wrong or too fast, when i had the need to check the time it was already 14min.

maybe because i'm tried, but i'm finding tohru little plain. kyou though was always my favourite.

kinda like the opening. though the studio using too much fades to my test.

Dude jumps out of 4-story-high window

Girls: "wow!"

I really don't know much about this series but I'm going to assume that most people end up shipping tohru with cat dude rather than rat dude.

Yeah the "shoujo" vibes are coming in but I don't mind it anyways Tooru got blood on her forehead prob because of that massive size then Soma got bitch slapped solid slap by Yuki

They really need to like distance from girls because as easy as that they might turn into animals or even slam the girls as Soma did

Well that secures Tooru's stay at the house by being really useful as it seems, At least they made up at least at the end, both the OP and ED fits right in.

So the friend who put me on to this show actually said that he thought that Tohru and I were very similar. So here are the similarities which I can see us having:
- Both kind, sweet and innocent.
- Both loyal and optimistic.
- Both hating people and letting people down, and both have strong consciences.
- Both not wanting to burden other people, and can very easily feel like burdens and annoying to others, which make us feel bad.
- Both love helping and doing things for other people.

Anyway, it was so good seeing that family take in Tohru, despite her knowing their secret. But it was cool to see them trust her, and feel safe to be able to be both human and animal around her. The lads transformations back into humans was the funniest thing.

Also, Kyo is a jerk who needs to have a slice of humble pie. Yuki is just a wholesome sweetheart, and I really hope him and Tohru end up together (although, I feel like she'll end up with Kyo). And Shigure is such a good father/older brother figure, who Tohru actually really needs in her life.

I’m definitely digging the vibes of this show so far, nothing much to say other than, it’s establishing Kyo as a character which I think they really did a good job of and while he’s quite an angry character, he does show that he does have a soft side to him and essentially making the dynamic between him and Tohru. 
I sorta like the opening for this show, it’s nice, suits the show that it’s representing I’m not a fan of it yet but at the same time I don’t hate it. The opening does it’s job at the moment I prefer the ending which I think it’s a bit more memorable to me.

Just finished episode 2, and wow, the feels are real! 😭 The deeper dive into the Soma family's curse has me so intrigued—like, there's so much more to them than meets the eye. Tohru's reaction to discovering the Zodiac secret was just priceless; she's so pure and accepting. 🥲 The dynamics between Yuki, Kyo, and Shigure are just too good—laughed and cried in the same episode. 😆 The blend of humor and heartfelt moments is just perfect. ❤️ And I can already see a love triangle developing between Tohru, Yuki, and Kyo... huhuhu!! 🤩

Tohru's father dying and mother working to death really had an impact on her. Her need to always earn a place to stay, and to not be a burden to people.

can't they just go to a boys' school? I honestly don't understand the plot, shoujo is weird, non-immersive and boring
