Fruits Basket

I’m sure you’ve all heard of Fruits Basket…right? (AKA Furuba). Honestly, I own lots of volumes from this series–sadly, I haven’t read any of them until now! Currently, I’m on volume three! In this blog post, I’ll be giving a little background on this common manga–if you haven’t read it before! Please feel free to give your opinion and perspectives on this series ^0^ Fruits basket is about a girl named Tohru Honda, an innocent girl who lost her mother, Kyoko, in a car accident. After living in the forest for a while, long story short, Tohru began her life in a house owned zodiac family known as the Sohma. In the house she lives with Kyo the cat, Yuki the rat, and Shigure the dog. This family is unique, obviously since they contain powers of the zodiac. Any time the members of the family are hugged by the opposite gender, they revert to their animal symbol. What’s really cool is that the book intertwines the zodiac and humans together. Not to mention, this book is written by the author of Tsubasa. If you haven’t read Tsubasa, you HAVE to. It contains characters from Cardcaptors.

Be sure to let me know if you’re watching the anime or reading the manga-I’d love to discuss both <3
