Plot

Fruits Basket follows the life of high-school student Tohru Honda, who was recently orphaned when her mother, Kyoko Honda, died in a car accident. After that, Tohru lived with her grandfather, but when his house needs remodeling, Tohru resorts to living in a tent in a forest and holds down a job to support herself. Despite suffering many hardships, Tohru remains optimistic. Tohru Honda ) is the primary protagonist in the manga and anime series entitled Fruits Basket. ... Kyoko Honda in a photograph. ...


One day, Tohru comes upon a house in the forest that is the home of her classmate Yuki Sohma and his older cousin Shigure Sohma. When the Sohmas discover that Tohru is living in a tent, they are quite surprised by her inner strength. The entire area is Sohma property, and Tohru asks to be allowed to stay in her tent (affectionately dubbed "her castle"). Feeling sorry for her and desperate to end their bachelor days of filthy living conditions, the Sohmas offer her their spare room in exchange for cooking and housework. After a landslide buries her tent, including her mother's picture and school clothes, she has no option but to accept. Soon after she moves in, Kyo Sohma comes to challenge Yuki.

Shigure Sohma ) is a fictional character in the manga and anime series entitled Fruits Basket. ... Kyo Sohma ) is a fictional character in the manga and anime series entitled Fruits Basket. ...


Tohru soon discovers the Sohma family's secret, and the reason why Yuki is so private and secretive at school: thirteen members of the family are possessed by the 12 animal spirits of the Chinese Zodiac (jyūnishi in Japanese) plus the spirit of the cat who was, according to legend, left out of the Zodiac. They transform into animals when hugged by the opposite sex or when put under a great deal of emotional or physical stress (such as being sick). When she promises to keep their secret, the Sohmas allow Tohru to keep her memories rather than hypnotically erasing them, a fate that had previously befallen anyone not "Inside" the Sohma family who had discovered the secret.

The story follows the lives of Tohru and the Sohma family, as they deal with each other and a society where neither quite fits in, as well as the feared Akito Sohma, head of the Sohma family. Soon, after living with the Sohma family she began to like, then love, all of the Sohmas, and sets out to break the zodiac curse.

Differences between manga and anime

In many places, the anime episodes are very similar to the corresponding manga chapters.[1] However, the anime does make some changes to the story. Some events are combined while other events, such as Tohru's first meeting with Momiji and all references to Tohru's hat, never happen in the anime at all. The anime series also added more instances of Sohma members being accidentally transformed by Tohru. For example, in episode six when Hanajima and Uotani visit the Sohma house, the anime has a lengthy series of accidental transformations, while in the manga, no transformations occurred during their visit. Much of the events surrounding the revealing of Kyo's true form are greatly changed in the anime, including adding an extended chase sequence, Tohru meeting Akito in the woods, her meeting with Hanajima and Uotani at her mother's grave, and Yuki having also chased after Kyo, none of which happen in the manga. Saki Hanajima ) is best friends with Arisa Uotani and Tohru Honda in the manga and anime series entitled Fruits Basket. ... Arisa Uotani ) is a fictional character in the manga and anime series Fruits Basket. ...


While the anime keeps most of the characters exactly the same as in the manga series, it does make some changes. In the manga, Momiji is half-German and half-Japanese and regularly speaks German, particularly when he first meets Tohru, while in the anime his bi-racial status is never mentioned and no German is spoken. Shigure's darker tones are toned down in the anime, with many remarks he makes in the manga that hint at a hidden agenda are left out, along with most of his early scenes with Akito.[1] The anime also presents Akito as biologically male and declares that as part of the curse, he will die at a young age.[2] A mixed-race Asian / Caucasian boy The terms multiracial, biracial, and mixed-race describe people whose ancestors are not of a single race. ...


Characters

Main article: List of Fruits Basket characters
Tohru Honda (本田 透 Honda Tōru?)
An orphaned high school student, Tohru ends up living in the same house with Shigure, Yuki and Kyo Sohma. She loves to cook, is an excellent housekeeper, and has an after school job as a custodian to help pay her tuition fees (since she doesn't want to bother her grandfather or her "house mates"). She is always polite, and is extremely kind, loving, and naive; in fact, the other characters, out of brotherly concern, usually have to tell her that she needs to look out for her own interests. She wishes to understand the Sohma curse and break it if she can. Voiced by: Yui Horie (Japanese), Laura Bailey (voice actress) (English)
Kyo Sohma (草摩 夾 Sōma Kyō?)
Kyo is the cat, an animal not actually in the Zodiac, but which legend says would have been if it had not been tricked by the rat into missing the induction feast. As part of a bet he made with Akito, Kyo is determined to beat Yuki (the rat) before high school ends so that he may be officially accepted as part of the Zodiac, instead of locked away in a dark room until he dies (the fate of all previous cats before him). After the alleged suicide of his mother, and abandonment of his father, Kyo has used Yuki, his natural enemy, as a scapegoat for everything wrong with his life. Despite many months of strict training, Kyo has never managed to even land a decent blow on Yuki. Instead, he continually gets beaten by Yuki in fights, often started by himself. Kyo runs away even from the people that want to help him, because he is ashamed of his true form, that of a hideous monster, which he turns into when his miko bone bracelet is removed. When Tohru sees his true form, however, she still accepts him and begs him to stay with her, which forms a strong bond between the two. Even before this, however he had a special relationship with Tohru, for her favorite animal from the Zodiac story, is the cat. Kyo wants to be appreciated, accepted and special like Yuki. As the series progresses, he learns to get along with Yuki for Tohru's sake. Orange is his natural hair color; a fact proven by Haru. Voiced by: Tomokazu Seki (Japanese), Jerry Jewell (English)
Yuki Sohma (草摩 由希 Sōma Yuki?)
Yuki is the rat of the zodiac. Known as "Prince Charming" or "Prince Yuki" at school, Yuki is very attractive and refined, but has a hard time being social. He wishes that he could be with people as friends, rather than admired and worshiped from afar, no thanks to his infamous PYFC (Prince Yuki Fan Club). Yuki has suffered a traumatic childhood at the hands of Akito, who ritually locked him away and mentally tortured him. Because of this, Yuki has a somewhat low sense of worth and is claustrophobic. He is secretly jealous of Kyo because he thinks Kyo can have a normal life and relationships with people, not being officially part of the Zodiac, which is something Yuki has always wanted. He has a shaky relationship with his older brother, Ayame (the snake), because he feels he was abandoned by him as a child, and that now Ayame is too carefree and obnoxious to be bothered with. He feels some attraction to Tohru, who sees genuine worth in him, gives him advice, and lifts his spirits with her lighthearted manner. Voiced by: Aya Hisakawa (Japanese), Eric Vale (English)

Production notes

Series title

The title of the series is taken from a children's game, Fruits Basket (フルーツバスケット fu-ru-u-tsu-ba-su-ke-t-to?, where the 'tsu' represents the 't' in "fruit", making it plural in an incorrect way), in which the participants sit in a circle, and the leader of the game names each person after a type of fruit; when the name of a child's fruit is called, that child gets up and has to find a new seat. When the protagonist, Tohru Honda first plays this game in kindergarten, she is assigned "Onigiri" (rice ball), by her cruel classmates, but she does not mind because she thinks onigiri are delicious. Once the game is finished, and all of the children but Tohru are called, Tohru realizes that onigiri are not a type of fruit at all, and she realizes that she does not belong. Tohru comes to associate this game with the Sohma family, and that she does not fit in among them any more than an onigiri does in a basket of fruit. In volume 1 of the manga, after Yuki and Kyo bring Tohru home from her grandfather's house, she begins to feel like she belongs with the Sohma family. After this, she imagines herself as a child hearing "Onigiri" called in the game, symbolizing that she has finally found her place.[3] Fruit Basket Turnover is a childrens game also known as Fruits Basket in Japan. ...

Reception

The Fruits Basket manga series is one of the top manga series in both Japan and in the US. More than 18 million copies have been sold in Japan making it the second best selling shojo series in Japan.[7] It is Tokyopop's best selling manga series, with more than 2 million copies sold.[8][9] The fifteenth volume of the English release rose to the 15th position on the USA Today Top 150 Bestselling Books, which is the highest position ever achieved by a volume of manga in the United States.[7] The eighteenth volume debuted at the top of the Nielsen BookScan sales list.[10] Despite a slow manga market, Fruits Basket remained the second highest overall selling manga series among the Bookscan companies in 2007.[11] Shōjo (少女 lit. ... USA Today is a national American daily newspaper published by the Gannett Company. ...


Critics have praised the over all story in Fruits Basket as being intellectual, with even the relatively light-hearted first volume giving hints at something darker in the background that makes the reader "question everything that happens."[12] Some felt the series was getting close to overloading readers with angst in later volumes, and questioned the credulity of the sheer number of bad parents in the series. As one reviewer noted: "in the world of Fruits Basket, good parents are as common as penguins in the Sahara—every single one is either neglectful, smothering, unfeeling, abusive, misguided, or dead."[13] Takaya's manages to balance the series' comedic elements with the more dramatic and heartbreaking moments, making it a captivating and engaging story.[14] For other uses, see Angst (disambiguation). ...

As this title progresses the fact that this title was one of the more popular series in Japan becomes clear. The characters get a lot of love. You get to experience them when things are good, as well as when they are struggling. The pacing is perfect. There is a good mix of comedy, fun filler, drama and action (something for everyone). In addition Fruits Basket is easy to relate to. With all the different personalities and the different signs of the zodiac, there is always someone to associate with. There are few titles that can do all that well, Fruits Basket puts all of these aspects together and makes a tasty treat...

—Eduardo M. Chavez, AnimeOnDVD.com[15]

Takaya's artwork are considered to be more than artistically appealing, with Takaya's skills in detailed art, shadowing, and shading allowing her to convey the character's moods and emotions without the character having any dialog at all.[13]

The real strength of Natsuki Takaya's artwork isn't that that it looks good—though it definitely does, from its beautiful characters to the intricately rendered textures of their clothing—but how well it communicates mood and emotions. Not content to rely on facial expressions, though she does them well, Takaya is particularly apt at using shading and shadows to indicate character's mental states...The details of character's emotions—the disparity between Tohru's private emotions and her public front, the punishing intensity of Kyo's feelings for Tohru—are not only discernable but tangible, all without a word being spoken.

—Carl Kimlinger, Anime News Network[13]

The Fruits Basket anime adaptation has also been well received, ranking third in Anihabara's list of top televised anime series in Japan for February 2002.[16] In the June 2002 issue of Animage magazine, the series was first in a list of the best twenty anime series in Japan.[17] In 2006, five years after the series finished airing in Japan, it was 93rd in TV Asahi's list of Japan's 100 favorite animated TV series.[18] September 1997 cover of Animage, featuring artwork from the Studio Ghibli film Princess Mononoke. ... TV Asahi Corporation ) (TYO: 9409 ), also known as EX and Tele-Asa ), is a television network headquartered in Roppongi, Minato, Tokyo, Japan. ...


Though it only covers part of the manga, critics felt the ending brought the story to a good stopping point while making it clear that there was much left for the Sohma and Tohru to deal with, including the curse and Tohru's future choice between Kyo and Yuki.[19][20] Though some felt the plot was lacking in development, they also praised the series for the strength of its character relationships.[20]

The entire series of Fruits Basket proves to be a true emotional roller coaster, hiding truly deep and heartfelt drama behind a candy coating of fun and humor. Deep down, it explores many aspects of emotion as the various characters search for their place in the world, gaining strength from each other.

—Allen Divers, Anime New Network[19]

In April 2005 Funimation Entertainment started a project calling for convention attendees to help them fold 1000 origami paper cranes. In Japanese folklore, folding 1000 paper cranes would grant someone a wish. When they had at least 1000 cranes, Funimation sent the cranes and pictures of the events to Studio Deen and Hakusensha to try to convince the company to produce a second season of the Fruits Basket anime.[21] Fans successfully folded the minimal of 1000 cranes by the end of the 2005 convention season, however at this time, there is still no sign that a second season of the anime series will be forthcoming.[22] This article is about paper folding. ...
