Fruits Basket tv Review

Story & Characters

Fruits Basket is a delicate anyme that mix fantasy, comedy and drama. Touhu is a very funny girl that starts to live with the strange (and hot, and sexy!! XD) Souma familly.

This family has a curse: they transform themselves into the animals of the chinese zodiac when they are huged by oposite sex (man, how can they date? :P)

Personally, Yuki is my preffered character. He carries the curse of the rat. Thats why he is hated (or not? :) by Kyo, that carries the curse of the cat. It was told that the rat make the rat fall into a trap in the Kami-sama´s party. And thats why the cat was taken out of the chinese zodiac .

The "dog" also lives with them in the house. He is a writer and a ecchi/yaoi guy. His scenes with the "snake" are so funny and sexy!

The most beautiful episode is when Yuki takes Tohru to meets his onii-san´s "fantasy" store. Tohru looks just gorgeous in her fantasy

Its a anime full of bishounens, and the storyline is very funny.

Time passes and she touchs their heart and cure their most deep scars in their hearts. I would recommend to everybody this anime! its just lovelly! The manga is even better, if you can, read it!

Art

The eyes are a little TOO big. But is a very beautiful art style. And it keeps beautiful in the entire anime (I hate when the quality of the animation/art gets lower sometimes, like the last Chrno Crusade episode).

The collors are so delicate, very well choused. And the mans are all beautiful, bishounens and hot :P Its a very beautiful art, watch it!

There is a special attention for the collouring of their eyes. I like the way they made it: it makes their eyes "shine".

I also love their heair style. In a very good taste.

Sound

Not much to say about it. The opening is cute, as the ending. Ists a nice soundtrack, but I just have downloaded the singles.

The opening has much alike the storyline of the anime, so was very well chosen. The ending is just so cute, and its calms your heart if you are the kind of person that crys when see sad scenes. (or it will make you cry even more! XD)

The ambiental sound was nice. Nothing really great to say, except for the orchestral version of the ending that hey play in very special moments.

Presentation

Is very funny!!! And very sad in some moments. But the funny part is great! I´ll laugh a lot in this anime!

Most of the jokes are innocente, but there are some ecchi/yaoi "jokes". Nothing that would offend anyone . But very delicate.

When you have a sad moment, the next one is always funny, so you can have fun with the anime. So if you were crying, Ill be laughing in some moments. Of course, if you are this kind of emocional personal. Very good humor, I recommend.

I watched the entire anime in two days. I just could not stop watching it. And you dont fell time pass when you are watching Fruits Basket. You could watch ten episodes and never gets tired of it.

All episodes have sad and funny momments. The final was a litlle frustrating (cause the manga series still goes on), but still, its a very good anime.

And I like animes that have good messages. That passes us messages about friendship, trust, love, dedication. This is something the world must always remember.

(sorry about any wrong spells, english is not my primary language :P)

    Fruits Basket is my favourite anime. I'm glad somebody else agrees with me. I can't count the times i've watched and rewatched the series. It always cheers me up and makes me laugh. I would personally love to see a sequel, but I don't think that will happen anytime soon or at all.
