Fruits Basket (the name refers to a children's game similar to "The Farmer in the Dell") has all the elements of a classic shojo (girl's) series: a sweetly domestic heroine, unconventional living arrangements, and two romantic candidates--one exquisitely gentle, the other hiding a heart of gold beneath a thorny exterior. Sixteen-year-old orphan Tohru Honda has been living in a tent when she meets the Sohma family. Handsome, intelligent Yuki is the most popular boy in school; his older cousin Shigura is a pulp novelist; Kiyo, another cousin, is a hot-tempered, red-haired martial artist. Members of the Sohma family labor under a curse: when embraced by a member of the opposite sex, they turn into animals from the Chinese zodiac: Yuki becomes a rat; Shigure, a dog; Kiyo, a cat. (According to legend, the cat failed to attend the feast held by Buddha at which the animals of the zodiac were chosen, but Tohru adores cats.) After short time, they return to human form--naked. The set-up owes a lot to Ranma 1/2, but Fruits Basket is a schmaltzy romantic comedy, not a martial-arts farce.

Tohru moves into this weird household and wins everyone's heart by cooking, cleaning, and keeping their secret. She also functions as an in-house Dear Abby, helping all the Sohmas with their emotional problems, which grow increasingly sentimental as the series progresses. Adolescent girls are clearly the target audience for Fruits Basket. (Unrated, suitable for age 13 and older, violence, mild profanity, minor risqué humor, tobacco use) --Charles Solomon

Don't buy here if its 99 bucks

What a freaking rip off!! This is the most heartwarming stick in your psyche girly anime ever. I tell you I obsessed for months over this anime fanfiction, manga, posters its the cutest most heartwarming make you feel so happy you watched it anime ever, but I bought the entire series here for $30 Best buy can get it for a similar price, what is Amazon thinking pricing this series so high? They must be nuts. Buy it used or new off ebay. It is an awesome adorable anime that will make you so happy and have you striving to be a better person, but c'mon, a hundred bucks for this is a total rip.

Totally worth watching!

This anime is one of the best I've seen. It's heart warming and funny. I laugh everytime I watch this. It really has great life lessons and understanding of other people. Definetly a keeper.


Great story that even a mother would like

This is a fun series that I wish continued past the first season.

My kids got me started and now I am hooked.


Great for the whole family

I was first introduced to this by a roommate in college. I was still not sure at the time if I liked anime. I fell in love with this almost immediately! I now have bought this on here. It has almost everything for everyone. It has action, fighting, karate, comedy, drama, curses, not too cheery, and much more. I've watched it a million times now, and still love it and can watch it even more without getting tired of it. I also now own the manga, and it's just as good. I think people who don't know much about anime should also watch. It's kind of eye- opening for people who think anime is just kiddy stuff. Everyone should watch it at least once.

Best over-all anime with The Twelve Kingdoms running a close 2nd

This is my favorite anime of all time with "The Twelve Kingdoms" running a close second. If I were going to choose one word to describe it, I would use "CHARMING."

My only complaint about this series is that, like "The Twelve Kingdoms," it was never completed.

I hope one day they will be able to do the rest of the series.
