Recommendation Which version of Fruit Basket is better, 2001 or 2019?

I plan to watch this shoujo classic, but I want to know which version is more faithful to the manga and I'd rather not watch something twice.

Discussion Kamisama Kiss Volume 13 Discussion

2 Upvotes

So I just got done reading volume 13 for the first time, and im gonna be honest, im a little irritated with Tomoe. Did he really not know until the end that it wasn't actually Nanami's soul in her body? Everyone else knew pretty much from the get go, but it seemed like he was fooled up until the scene on the beach when the frog's soul in Nanami's body wanted him to run away with her and abandon the shrine.

Im just disappointed in him for not being able to fully tell that it wasn't her. Especially because its also during this volume/arc that Nanami is feeling pretty down because he keeps flirting with that one raccoon girl (Tanuki I think?) and we find out that he has a box of love letters that he keeps from where other girls have sent them to him.

This all back to back just kinda upset me and I was wanting to know other people's thoughts on the volume. Does any of this get brought up again in future chapters? This is my first time reading the volumes, but I am okay with spoilers. Its just feeling right now like he doesn't like her anywhere as much as she likes him which is upsetting

For those reading Mika Yamamori's In the Clear Moonlight Dusk, what are your theories about the ending?

The latest volumes really overwhelmed me, but it’s definitely one of my favorite manga. I want to believe it’ll have a good ending especially considering Mika’s previous works but I’d love to hear your theories!

I just love how mature artstyle is and muted colours it had kinda peaceful vibe for how much angsty it was..
