Fruit Basket Part -- A basket of ' Zodiac Chinese's humans' .

A basket of ' Zodiac Chinese's humans. 

This is a cute anime, with a lot animals.

This is the Zodiac Chinese's legend. 

Because, it's impossible to happen in our the real life.

Fruit Basket.

I wonder why this anime will called as ' Fruit Basket' ? 

Because it's nothing about Fruit, 

just a lot of Zodiac Chinese's humans. 

The Sohma family members, 

if they're hugged by the opposite gender, 

they will transform into animal of the Chinese Zodiac. 

Tohru Honda is a girl, who her mother passed away,

and she leaved alone in a tent, 

and one day because of some incident, 

she has been invited to live in their house with the Sohma Family,

and she had found the Sohma family's secret. 

 Everyday is an adventure for sweet Tohru, 

as she gets to know everyone in the large family better, 

in both common and bizarre situations. 

But, the Sohma Family curse is certainly no laughing matter..

 it also holds horrible cruelty and heartbreak.

the main character, 

Tohru Honda

Tohru Honda.

An orphaned high school student, 

She ended up sharing house with the Shoma Family. 

Tohru is a polite and is extremely kind and loving; 

in fact, the other characters sometimes have to tell her that she needs to look out for her own interests. 

She wishes to break the curse that engulfs the family.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sohma Yuki 

Sohma Yuki.

Yuki is the rat of the Zodiac. 

Knows as ' The Prince' or ' Prince Yuki '. 

But, you know. He looks like a girl more then a boy. 

He wishes that he could be with people as friend, rather than admired.

Yuki has suffered a traumatic childhood at the hands of Akito, 

the head of the Sohma clan who locked up and mentally tortured him. 

Because of this, 

Yuki has a somewhat low sense of worth and is claustrophobic.

He is always fighting with the cat, Kyo.

when they're fighting there, it's quite funny too.

When Yuki transform to the rat, cute !! 

  

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sohma Kyo 

Sohma Kyo

Kyo is a stubborn, hot-headed boy.

 As with most of the Sohma clan, 

Kyo is cursed with becoming an animal of the Zodiac when hugged by someone of the opposite gender. 

His Zodiac animal is the cat which, in legend,

 was barred from becoming one of the official twelve animals because of the rat's trickery. 

Kyo hates the current rat of the family, Yuki, as a result. 

The two constantly fight and Kyo loses every time.

Kyo was always separated from the Sohma clan, including his parents,

 which is likely the cause of his short-fused temperament and stubbornness.

 He constantly trains in martial arts so that he might one day defeat his rival, Yuki.

 His martial arts master is one of the people he respects the most.

When Kyo transform to the cat. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sohma Shigure

Sohma Shigure.

Shigure transforms into the dog of the Chinese Zodiac. 

Shigure is one of the oldest members of the Sohma family. 

He is laid-back and anything but solemn.

 He is somewhat of a pervert, and as a writer of both romance novels and academic books. 

Occasionally, Shigure shows that he has another side to himself.

 He can be surprisingly mature, thoughtful, and gives rather sage and insightful advice to 

Tohru, Kyo, Yuki, and other characters, 

acting like an actual "adult". 

When Shigure transform to the dog. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sohma Hatsuharu

Sohma Hatsuharu 

 The ox of the Zodiac, 

he is usually calm, placid, and otherwise an all-around nice guy, 

but can be goaded into "stampeding", where he's edgy and mean and slightly oversexed. 

White Haru is conscious during his "black" transformation, 

but is unable to do anything about it. He just either apologizes or doesn't care. 

Additionally, Haru has a rather bad sense of direction; 

he had become lost for three days in another town after trying to find Kyo so he could challenge him. 

He likes to make fun of Kyo passively and wants to fight with him on a regular basis.

 He is very protective and caring, especially towards Yuki, Kisa, and Rin, and is constantly looking out for these characters.

When Hatsuharu transform to the ox. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sohma Kisa

Sohma Kisa. 

Kisa is the tiger of the zodiac. 

She is very shy, cute, and withdrawn, largely because her classmates harass and ostracize her due to her naturally orange hair, a side effect of her curse of the tiger. In Japanese society, 

non-black hair is considered "disrespectful" or "unnatural" and being made fun of for this reason is really quite normal. Tohru helps her to come out of her shell, 

and she develops quite an attachment to Tohru.

 Usually seen around Hiro or Momiji. 

Her mother is extremely protective of her and worries about her often. 

When Kisa transform to the tiger. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sohma Momiji 

Sohma Momiji.

A cute and seemingly happy teenager with a sad family life that he hides behind his cheery demeanor.

He is older than he looks, much to Tohru's surprise,

 he is only 1 year younger than Yuki, and Kyo, the same age with Hastaharu. 

Momiji is the rabbit of the Zodiac and is the son of one richer members of the Shoma family.

 His father is Japanese while Momiji's mother is German.

Momiji's mother was erased because otherwise she might slip into utter madness. 

Momiji is actually very insightful and emotionally strong despite his upbringing.  

He took to Tohru very quickly, even ignoring the fact that he was a Zodiac and hugged her when they were formally introduced. 

He is cute and he looks alike with Honey-senpai (Ouran High School Host Club) , I like him !

When Momiji transform to the rabbit. Cute ! 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sohma Hatori

Sohma Hatori

The dragon of the Zodiac and the private doctor to the Sohma clan. 
Hatori is serious and is often without a sense of humor. 
It's his job to erase the memories of those who discover the Sohma clan secret, though it is not entirely clear if this is simply a form of hypnosis or more of a supernatural power.
 When his curse activates he turns into a seahorse rather than an actual dragon, 
because the Chinese consider the seahorse to be baby dragons and the actual name in Japanese translates to it. He is very self-conscious about his transformation in the fact that he is the "great and powerful dragon" 
but appears as a "seahorse". 
Like Shigure and Ayame, he is very tall, and he is really a nice guy upon deeper inspection.

When Hatori transform to the seahorse (dragon) . 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sohma Ayame 

Sohma Ayame 

 The snake of the zodiac, and big brother to Yuki, 

Ayame is vivacious, garrulous, and has a knack for making Yuki and Kyo angry. 

He runs a business that makes women's clothing, which men apparently wear as well, 

and he often wears women's clothing himself. 

 Vain and somewhat self-conscious,

 he is really a thoughtful person underneath his "selective" skin. 

He has gorgeous gold eyes and silver hair in a startling contrast to Yuki's violet and grey. 

His fear, coincidentally, is a fear of being totally alone. 

Much to Yuki's chagrin and surprise, he was actually the student body president in high school. 

When Ayame was young, he did not care for Yuki at all until he realized that when he got older,

 he would be totally alone without Yuki, 

spurring his new obsession to gaining Yuki's love shown in the series. 

Yuki has slowly started to accept Ayame as a brother.

When Ayame transform to the snake. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sohma Hiro

Sohma Hiro.

 the sheep of the zodiac,

 is a very intelligent but verbally aggressive and smart-mouthed sophist. 

He is in love with Kisa, 

and resents Tohru because she unwittingly monopolizes Kisa's time and attention. 

He starts out hostile to Tohru, 

but eventually eases his initial attitude through a combination of grudging admiration

 for Tohru and Kisa telling him to let up. 

He is sarcastic and pessimistic. 

When Hiro transform to the sheep. Cute isn't ? :D 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sohma Ritsu 

Shoma Ritsu.

Ritsu was born with the curse of the sign of the monkey.
As far back as he could remember,

 his parents always had to apologize for everything he did, so he is very unsure of himself. 

He feels that every day, he is robbing the world of its air by breathing.

He found that it always made him feel more comfortable to dress like a girl, 

but that only gave his parents even more to apologize for.

When Ritsu transform to the monkey. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Shoma Kagura 

Shoma Kagura.

Kagura is the boar of the zodiac. 

She has been in love with Kyo since they were young,

 although she doesn't know that Kyo is in love with her friend, Tohru Honda. 

Because of her "pity" of him as a child,

 when he was all alone because he carried the curse of the cat, she played with and took care of him.

 Eventually, it developed into a near-obsessive love for him. 

She is convinced she will marry him, mainly because she threatened him into proposing to her. 

 Despite this love, she often loses her head and beats him senseless 

when he does something to anger her or make her anxious. 

As one of the only three female members of the zodiac, 

she is able to hug any of the male members and neither she nor they transform. 

 Kagura seemingly is the only female member of the zodiac that has not been personally hurt by Akito.

When Kagura transform to the boar. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Shoma Akito 

Shoma Akito.

Akito is the head of the Sohma clan and very frail. 

He often runs fevers and rarely walks out of the main house other than to greet some of the Zodiac members, 

such as Yuki and Shigure, that live in the outside world. 

Akito has a definite mean streak, and has physically and 

emotionally scarred many members of the Sohma family, 

but Akito's rule in the Sohma clan is absolute, and none dare oppose him.

A possible part of Akito's curse was that he would only live to be thirty. 

At a certain point in the Zodiac's life, Akito wishes to force

 them to live within the Sohma compound with him for the rest of their lives in a never-ending "banquet".

 He even describes himself as the "Master of their (the Zodiac) Souls".

He has a deep hatred of Kyo Sohma, the Cat, 

whom he believes should be isolated for the rest of his life.

 He hates Tohru most of all, since everyone seems to love and protect her.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hanajima Saki 

Hanajima Saki 

Saki is a psychic girl with a goth-like appearance 

who has the ability to sense people's "auras" 

and send out electric waves. 

Much like Arisa, Saki is extremely protective of Tohru, 

who was the first person in school who had truly accepted her. 

She is very observant, polite, and loves to eat (and is rarely seen not eating outside of school). 

Her nickname (Hana-chan), a violet with fangs,

 relate humorously in that hana means "flower" in Japanese. 

Hanajima has a close relationship to her family who accept and even nurture her gifts

 (her younger brother, Megumi), looks up to Hanajima,

has his own special ability so that she wouldn't be the only "weird" one in the family).

 Her mother seems to resemble Tohru's protective and caring nature 

(maybe explaining her attachment to Tohru). In the near "parental" protection she and Arisa give Tohru, 

she acts as the protective "motherly" figure.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Uotani Arisa 

Uotani Arisa.

Arisa is a former gang member

 (a "yankee"; a Japanese version of the American "gangster thug" image) 

and has been one of Tohru's closest friends since 

Tohru's mother helped her escape from the gang (called "The Ladies") when she wanted to leave it.

 Arisa is tough, brash, and sometimes violent but cries easily when it comes to her friends. 

She wears long skirts, carries a lead pipe, and often speaks like a man (in Japanese, different word choices can categorize a speaker as male or female). 

Arisa likes to play cards, protect Tohru from Yuki's fangirls, and swim. 

Her "convoluted" personality stems from home problems early in her life, 

when her mother left Arisa and her father for another man; 

her father became an alcoholic after his rejection. 

This caused Arisa to become harsh and jaded in her views of the world

 until she met the kind Tohru and her mother, Kyoko. 

With her overprotective and rather "parental" protection of Tohru with Hana-chan, 

she comes off as the brash and direct "father" figure.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is the other wonderful anime that I had seen before.

I like it too.

It doesn't same like ouran. 

Totally different anime,

all those character also got a sad history behind them. 

It's sad. 

Well, they also got a lot of funny moment. 

Such like, 

Yuki and Kyo are quarreling. 

It's damn funny and interesting. 

Yuki is a intelligent guys, 

and Kyo is a very stubborn guy.

They're so funny. 

I'm keep on laughing when i'm watched this anime, 

but it's sad when they're talking back their history.

It's touch. 

This is also the other wonderful and great anime that I had seen before. 

Try to have fun on it.
