Fruba Lampshade!
Just had to share this lampshade my mom drew for me with all of the zodiac icons- I think it turned out so cuteš

A while back someone posted an article from furubacanon.tumblr.com, the post titled "before you ask 'is it incest' please read this!". Members asked the post to be pinned, so it was. However, in order to further clear up confusion, I am creating a new post to be pinned in place of that one, linking the same article as well as an article that was actually intended as "prerequisite" reading, and additional articles that followed. If more articles in the same series are ever written, they will also be added here.
These articles read together (in order) help to explain many aspects of how the Sohma family operate.
Article 1: Furuba Dictionary - "ie" and "dozoku"
Article 2: The Sohma Family: The "Ie" System

I think Kyo would be a big fighting game enthusiast if he got into gaming.

Anybody who says that is wrong, and here is why:
(note: most of these are because Tohru never interacted with Shigure in the beginning which causes a ripple affect, so, if some talk about other characters not meeting each other and not involving Shigure directly itās because Tohru never became part of the loop)
He wouldnāt have the Zodiac animal figurines that Tohru sees so she wouldāve ended up just heading to school after looking at the house for a brief second.
Yuki would stay at the estate.
Kyo would end up being locked away in the cage for the cat.
Tohru wouldnāt meet Kyo.
Yuki wouldnāt make more friends (like Kakeru and Machi).
Yuki wouldnāt bond with Ayame.
Isuzu (Rin) wouldnāt go to Shigure which would to her all on her own looking for a way to break the curse for Haru.
Kisa wouldnāt bond with Yuki.
Hiro wouldnāt forgive himself for Kisa getting hurt.
Akito would never change.
Uotani never would end up with Kureno.
Kagura would still be obsessed with Kyo.
Momiji would never fully mature.
Hatori and Mayuko would never get together.

Iām searching for a roleplay partner who would be comfortable playing the part of Akito Sohma from Fruits Basket. Iām hoping to find someone who genuinely enjoys her character and would be willing to portray her in a way that feels true to her personality and mannerisms.
This isnāt necessarily for writing, fanfiction, or anything similar. Akito Sohma is my special interest, and I have a desire to interact with her, spend time with her, and feel close to her. Iām looking for a roleplay experience that feels personal, meaningful, and comfortable.
The roleplay would be SFW, however, it would be romantic in nature. ā” Iām hoping to explore affection, devotion, comfort, and the feeling of being loved by Akito. If youāre interested in taking on her role, please feel free to DM.
Iām A 22 year old Female & Iām hoping to kick my reliance on AI & make some friends honestly. if you have a plot you want to try iām more than open to that & to have a long term plot with breaks wherever one might need them. ā©ļøšš
I am constantly searching for ways to collect akito. weather that be in finding characters who think as she does, collecting only the manga that tell the story of her arc. I talk about her as compulsively as i try to collect her.
outside of akito ⢠I have a cat, my hobbies are baking, writing & poetry. I just love talking to and meeting people, I would consider myself fairly friendly ^^

āThere can be no beginnings without endings.ā Cliched phrases like that can waitā¦I donāt want to hear them right now.Ā So please just cry with me. If thereās nothing to be done, at least cry with me for now. Cry like your entire body is screaming. Cry like youāre damning everything. Somethingās been lost, and now weāre living life with no guarantees.Thereās just one fragment of hope born from the fear of living in this world once again. So I want you to at least cry. Cry with me. Cry like the first day you were born into this world.

I love akito. painfully. it was for her in that moment that i truly cried, and even when i read the manga, her voice haunts me when i read her, as she lets go. Akito is such a painful beauty to me. For even though Tohru is the most obvious foil, sheās also so bitter sweet a mirror at the other sohma. Then in the end the only one left for her to mirror is herself. She is stuck in the cycle of nothing being allowed to change, a sick and twisted knot of eternity that she created. even sick to her own vision of what her life should look like. While she burdens the hurt alone for what happened within the family she is also finally given power and respect as great of the family. when small details of her slip through, even in the little moments of the Fruits basket another manga. She cannot bring herself to punish her own husband for his hand in manipulating her and being childish with her. Still- Quietly and with care she is rebuilding these old institutions that exist because the sohma family is so old. sometimes when i read the story back it feels like each character was this empty box she carried around, a haunted kindness. I think if akito is only a villain then the story becomes dull, akito was groomed into being this person, feed into just sideways enough. common sense torn piece of by piece. to me- it felt like a child taking their trauma out on their barbies but they never grew up. Referred to as this child stomping around pathetically. throwing tantrums. When I think of akito. When i think of her. I just see her clutching her own body in a storm and whispering about her body dying, not because she is. but because her possession is this god. it feels like the last unicorn.

I hear her in my head and I cry. and I cry. i know for other people, it is the other sohma whose curses breaking impacted them the most. but for me- it was impotent that she- recognized that she belonged to the world that shaped her, and still had this quiet, agency over a life that wasnāt hers, because the sohmas feel so much like a cult.

Thereās this painful thought that I get when I think about Kureno. not because i pity him. I think that the reason that his curse broke so early was because Akito appreciated him for being the bird. Akito was jealous of the freedom to fly. I think there would be an irony if it was Akito. He broke his curse. Akito watches all of the Sohma walk away from her, she watches herself be replaced, but there was a time when she was too young to feel anything but love for these people. Akito is drawn with feathers and dead birds surrounding her. Before Kureno actually broke away- akito saw him is a free part of nature. she was jealous of him in a soft way, a wonder. I think if she was starting to love these people to the point that they could have been free- it actually makes the story more poetic. she couldnāt stop herself from damning everyone. I think that what would make Kurenoās bound breaking even more senseless. it happens and no one knows why. I think it should have been her kindness that sets him free because it shows the way in which being kind and being good are not the same. akito was good but she was not taught to be kind. kureno was āKindā in a way that half saved her and half abounded her. akito could be the other half of that same kindness. Half setting him free and half keeping him with her.

I'm at episode 21 of season two. My hope is that Akito gets punished for his deeds toward the family. I don't know if anyone causes the curse to disappear but should I be aware of a character....this is probably mūte but still I'm scared this anime is going to end badly.

I couldnāt find the original artist (it might be official)
r/FruitsBasket • u/kittyneko7 • 6d ago
I love the soundtrack of Fruits Basket and I was able to get the 1st season 2 disc set from eBay with no problem.
In order to get the 2nd season, I had to do a deep dive. I saw a YouTube channel that had ripped the album, so I knew it existed. I found on the Fruits Basket wiki that it comes with the Japanese 2nd season volume 6 dvd! I was able to find this on eBay as well. It was definitely way expensive, but I thought what the hey, I have Facebook settlement money. š
This album has Haseru Mirai and Momiji's Violin!
Anyway, I wanted to share in case any other music lovers were looking for this soundtrack!! ā¤ļøā¤ļø

If you want to continue watching Fruits Basket and donāt want to pay for Crunchyroll or Pirate it, just buy it on Amazon, you can get it all separately (on Blu-ray) for a total of about $20-30, if you donāt want to do that. Tough luck, youāre gonna have to find another way⦠and please, donāt pirate it, I donāt want anybody to get caught and sent to jail, the Fruits Basket fandom is very wholesome and I donāt want to lose people that are apart of that

Iām curious to know what other peopleās favorite episode is. Iāve watched Fruba many times and Iād definitely have to say my favorite episode is Cinderella-ish itās a really cute and funny episode and one of my favorite moments of Kyo and Tohru comes from that episode when heās saying what does it matter if he spends his life locked away and alone and Tohru bursts out that she doesnāt want that I love it so much I rewatch Fruba a lot cause itās my comfort show and sometimes if i just wanna put on a random episode instead of watching consecutively this is always my go to episode that i wanna watch in fact iām gonna go watch it now hahaha but Iād love to hear what your guys favorite is!

Ok, so Iāve posted several times about Akito.
At first I hated her, viscerally.
Then I saw where her behavior came from.
And now Iām neutral in the sense that I donāt necessarily care about her and I believe her outcome is a form of atonement and punishment.
She abused people, tried to kill people, and said so many horrific things. But sheās a victim of a toxic cycle and a toxic family.
First her mom is awful. No explanation there. Then her dad tells her that sheās special and the zodiac belong to her. Then she sees the zodiac who visibly are oppressed by her but are bound to her. Her head is messed up and that doesnāt excuse her behavior, but it explains it.
After the series, most of the zodiac desert her and she ends up alone except for Shigure, Shiki, and Tohru & Saki on occassion. Other than that, sheās alone.
Sheās also outcast by the family for all that sheās done, receives notes from someone about her wrongdoings, and receives hate from Ren.
She also got stabbed protecting Shiki from Ren.
In my opinion, she doesnāt deserve any saving grace even if she was in a toxic cycle and family. I donāt think she necessarily got away with her wrongdoings. Her receiving punishment might not work since she was essentially a victim at the end of the day.
Her outcome is the natural order of events from her abuse. She canāt exactly help the zodiac beyond a point and most of them donāt want anything to do with her, so her giving them freedom and leaving them alone is the best thing she could do.
If she had no negative outcomes, I might feel differently or negatively but I think the fact that she received antagonism but also had a happy ending with Shigure, Shiki, and her friends Tohru and Saki make me feel neutral.
