| It sucks that small children are brainwashed or ill educated at home, and have a Hive mentality and start to question and not accept things that are different or queer. And therefore others suffer for their ignorance. I think its more sad the turmoil as they age and still are not willing to accept and adapt to the times. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| that was great. not being able to tell anyone about your hardships, shutting yourself in because of it, and i love how they didnt beat around the bush with "learn to love yourself" because thats just utter bullshit. how do you "learn to love yourself" "find something to love about yourself" if i knew what and how to do those i would've done it a long time ago. |
| Tohru's reaction when she got bitten was so funny It's cool that there's a lot of deep and meaningful speeches this episode |
| Tears!!!!!!!! ╥﹏╥ |
| this was a very sweet episode. Yuki encouraging kisa and he himself facing his fears. Seems like Yuki has Akito on his mind often. we need more Akito storyline. |
| Kisa being bullied because of her appearance is a realistic and sad situation, where its wholesome seeing Tohru, Yuki and the rest helping her out. On a sidenote, I kinda hoped Kyo would've helped out more considering they are both feline animals. |
 |
| once again i felt that a sohma family member episode not about yuki or kyo is concentrating more on yuki/kyo than the new character, this time it's yuki. kisa is very cute, but i didn't felt her story because of yuki braveness. that's probably one of the things i do not like about shoujo anime - boys who acting like girls, lol. feeling like this season is on downhill, hope it to go up with the next episodes. |
| I feel like this anime is making me braver |
 |
| I've never been bullied or ostracized, but I know all too well what it's like to feel like you've lost your voice and can no longer reach anyone. With each character, I feel like my own vulnerabilities & weaknesses are reflected in fragments through their circumstances. Yuki's monologue on self-hatred really hit hard since I've struggled with that feeling since I was 8 or 9. I even remember in high school, the popular teacher told me to "love myself for who I am" and it made me wanna punch a locker as soon as I left the class. But now, later in my life, I've come to appreciate how precious that feeling of self-forgiveness and acceptance can be for those who are so hard on themselves. It's not about shallow encouragement - it's about a journey through life and understanding your own flaws in the grand scheme. |

| It was so sad :( She finally said something! |
| “I won’t rely on anyone anymore. I don’t care if no one understands.” – Homura Akemi |
| The solution to the problem is wrong: She is being mobbed (at least in my translated version), so the solution should be to switch schools or get home-schooled or anything, but not to go back to the place that hurt her in the first place, which was the classroom if I got that correctly. I wholeheartedly disagree with how they solved this problem. |
 |
| Yeah I think we’ve all experienced bullying at some point in our lives and Kisa is no exception to the rule apparently. Just the fact that she gets bullied just because of how she looks is so relatable and sad at the same time, if it weren’t for Tohru, Yuki and the others helping her, she wouldn’t have been able to a better school life I feel. The more I think about it I feel Tohru would’ve been a big help during my school life, the end of my school life that is. Otherwise as with most episodes in Fruits Basket, it’s a very wholesome episode overall. |
| Oof imagine getting bit by that tiger zodiac I would cook him alive while in animal form |
 |
| Finally, we got some cute moments between Yuki and Tohru! 😍 And OMG, the little tiger girl is absolutely adorable!!! ❤️❤️❤️ |
 |
| This was a realistic depiction of bullying, and that's what makes this episode tragic and brilliant. The kids just endlessly teasing her and picking on her for everything. The teacher pretty much blaming Kisa and saying, "just practice self love and try harder!" Yes, that'll solve the problem... Luckily, I did have a group of friends to help me through the hard times, but seriously, fuck teachers and bullies. |
