everytime i think of fruits basket i get a tight feeling in my chest. it's such a beautiful story of overcoming abuse and healing. the sohma family suffered so much, especially kyo, yuki, hatori, and rin but they never allowed it to change them into terrible people.
yuki's development is one of my favorite parts of the show. because of akito's abuse, he was always scared to be his true self. He felt like he had to be perfect and never made genuine connections, but he was finally able to break free from that thinking and find his own path.
kyo and tohru's story made such an impact on my life. kyo suffered with his guilt and feeling like an outcast his whole life while tohru had to grow up quickly putting aside her own feelings for her mother's sake. they were able to heal each other and eventually fell in love. kyo's story, in particular, makes me cry to this day. he was a boy who couldn't help what he was; he wanted to be loved and valued, and it's only until tohru honda comes into the picture that he can finally feel worthy of love.
fruits basket is incredibly heartbreaking while also beautiful. kyo, tohru, and yuki will always be my favorite characters, and i will always hold fruits basket close to my heart!
Do you ever think about kagehina's jersey numbers and throw up.
once is an accident
twice is a coincidence
three times is deliberate
new skip to loafer chapter just got uploaded. life is beautiful once again. the world would be a better place if everyone read skip to loafer I think. I wish the dinosaurs hadn’t been hit by that meteor so they too could’ve enjoyed reading it.
this post explains exactly how i feel about skip and loafer. it changed my life 🫂
the amount of impact reading skip and loafer has had and how it has trickled throughout my life and the way i perceive myself/others. i started reading when i was freshly 17 and 2 years later i can genuinely see and map out the way it's influenced my perspective on life and how that's changed over time. i know it's really cheesy but i was so afraid of everything and a complete mess mentally back then. it was one of the first things that reminded me human connection/connection to myself is actually a wonderful thing worth trying to get better for. the amount of love and honesty infused into the way these characters are written is just so beautiful and i regularly go back to read that translation of the takamatsu interview because i love the way she describes her thought processes. i'm just incredibly grateful to have come across it when i did :-D.....thank u skipulofa for changing my life....
kagehina running together in official art always makes me so happy!! always running after each other, always one step behind the other, always working towards the same goal. running side by side as they become stronger together. NO LONGER ARE THEY RUNNING ALONE!! they chase their dreams knowing they will always have the other right next to them.
for those of you sad that kageyama and hinata end up on different teams post time skip, i have some good news!!! the japanese national team, which they both end up on, doesn’t just compete at the olympics. the national team competes at an array of different championships, most notably the FIVB Volleyball Nations League, which is held every year. so whatever team they decide to go play for around the world, they still come back to play together every summer (and also some other times sprinkled throughout the year).
THIS DORK 😭
cats love tobio so much they just are scared to approach since he's so cool and awesome and fun
no doubt that every time furudate is like ‘Kageyama thinks animals are afraid of him bc when he was younger there’s this one that would let everyone else pet them but not him’ it’s just an affectionate way of making Tobio seem less intense and more silly BUT KAGEYAMA STANS ARE LIKE NOOOOO I REJECT!!! ANIMALS LOVES HIM!!!! GIVE HIM TWO CATS!!!!
