Spoiler Time Sunday: The Thing About Furuba is

Hi, dearies!

Welcome back to a Spoiler Time Sunday, which already has multiple entries, in case you want to spoil your fun or just know more about a favourite book, anime, show.

This Sunday will be for Furuba or Fruits Basket, which became a favourite of mine after watching about three episodes of the 2019 Anime Version of the manga, I was hooked, I was sold after the first episode even. The intro, I was there, in it.

Now, you see I am a fan of it, I like it. But I am a realistic person, and I know that if you look to close into things (shows, stories, character’s background) then you really get like: wow, seriously? Is that truly how it is?

So, today, I am doing that with Furuba because I enjoy rambling about these random things.

First off, this is my warning, there are spoilers as per the whole point of this blog post, spoilers ahead, this is my warning.

Fruits Basket (Anime 2001)

Where can I watch it? On Crunchyroll.

Hello, dearies! 🐾

I recently, barely, finished watching Fruits Basket’s original anime (or I would say the crazy 2001 version).

This anime makes no sense.

I’ll jump right into this one. Expect some rambling ahead, and some spoilers if you don’t know about Fruits Basket.

Hello, dearies! 🎆🎐

Welcome to a new rambling about a Manga. I finished Fruits Basket this month, and found it quite interesting.

What shocked me the most about reading and finishing the Manga was that I knew where it was going because I’d watched the anime (2019 version), but I was still into it, it didn’t feel like a repeat, but at the same, it was a sort of comfort read, I don’t know if you know what I mean, but it was nice. And I liked it of course.

Fruits Basket – Anime

Title: Fruits Basket (フルーツバスケット, Furūtsu Basuketto)

Where to watch? Crunchyroll

Original run: April 6th, 2019 – June 28th, 2021

Hello, dearies! 🐱🍙

Let’s talk Fruits Basket! If you haven’t heard of this anime or manga before, I recommend it. Also known as フルーツバスケット, Furūtsu Basuketto. You can watch it on Crunchyroll and FunimationNow.

Before starting on this one, I’d like to clarify that this is about the anime of 2019 (essentially a reboot). I haven’t watched the original anime (I didn’t know there was one) from 2001, though that one has fewer episodes, and I think they changed the story from the Manga.
