CAA: Christian Anime Alliance

Okay, who loves this show?

Me Kinkosami and Trinitron, have just finished watching it and it was a great show, we all loved it so much, I like didn't do anything else but watch Fruist Basket all day! ^^

So, what I want you guys to do is rate it. 1 - 5, and I will see if everyone else thinks the same way as I do. ^^

And then you say your favorite character. ^____^

Okay, I will start.

Yuki

Moved to the right forum, and I'm also a huge Furuba fanatic. It's a wonderful series and one of my favorites (suprising since it's not a tanemura piece XD) I definately give it a 5, and don't ask me to pick my favorite character...it's like, impossible.

Ah, Crap! I new this was going to be moved! Sorry! >_<;;;;

But, yeah. I can't really pick my favorite, I just say Yuki cause I really really like em'. ^^

i have not seen! But i want to watch it so badly!

Heh...

*Prepares for the angry tomato-pelting of Furuba fans*

That's for the anime. The manga, I give a 5. ^^

Anyway...

Favorite character, tie between Momiji and Kyou.

Yeah I love the manga so much better

However since it is one of the veeeeeeeerrrrryy few anime that I can watch the dub of without screaming in agony (and actually enjoy), I'd give it a 4 ^^

I love Yuki too! Especially in the most recent manga volume. "I'll kidnap you." *insert squeal of joy* XD so cute~

I think Kyo/Kagura or even Kyo/Uo would be good couples. Kyo and Uo (isn't her name Arisa??) are always fighting, but I think they'd be a good couple. *hides before Kyo/Tohru fans kill me*

I've heard yaoi fans slash Momoji and Hatori together. XO!! That is so wrong *cries* TT_TT

I really enjoy this series. I give it a four - and my favourite character is Ayame (I have a thing for silver-haired bishounen.. *_*)

Could someone give us noobs a description of this anime?

Someone on another MB recommended it, and the ANN review is somewhat vague.

There's always our ver own review: http://www.christiananime.net/reviews.php?display=24

Or, Mangafanatic gave it a lovely summary at this thread:
http://www.christiananime.net/showthread.php?t=15733

And it was mentioned fairly in depth here:

And finally, there's the massive thread on it here:

Momoji and Hatori? EEEEEEWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!! >_<;;

[quote="Sam*ron"]Momoji and Hatori? EEEEEEWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!! >_<]

That is wrong. . . on so many levels.

Definitley a 5.
Fav char..... o so hard... umm..... I'll pick Kyo for now. ( I like Tohru and Kisa as well ^_^)

What about poor Yuki!? o_o;

That is wrong. . . on so many levels.

You are so right.. -__-;

I love Fruits Basket! I'd say I'd give it a 5, since I haven't seen a lot of anime shows: it's really difficult to buy/find etc any in NZ. It's starting to become a little easier tho. My favourite character would be... Tohru. Yup, an obvious choice but bah.
Also, since I love this anime, are there any others like it that anyone could recommend to me? Ones NOT all about fighting etc?

Oh, a 4.5, because nothing's perfect.

Favorite character-- maybe Hatori. He and Kyo are sorta tied. And Shigure's up there with the best of them, as is Tohru.

I am dying to see it, but stupid Netflix still doesn't have it to rent. >_<

Yes Shigure and Hatori are def up there

I give it a 5.

It is the only anime that I have seen so far that I want to watch over and over.

My fav characters are Momiji & Kisa they are so cute. I just want to hug them!
Little Momo huggles Momiji & Kisa

That is one of the series that I really want to see, but hopefully I will be able to find it out there somewhere. . .

Tohru is MINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have seen disks one and two and am on disk three. I haven't laughed like this at a anime in a while. Its hilarious. Tohru is definatly the highlight. The more I watch of her the more I am so impressed. As Ashley said earlier if Tohru was real she'd be christian, I have to agree. She is great...and cute. I bought this without much knowledge of the series and I am now a fan. Thanks to all who recomended it. It was a good buy.

I'm totally gravedigging, but....

5!!! I liked it!!

Anyway, my fave character is Hatori (the doctor). Although I really liked Tohru, too. It's usually really hard to suit me with female characters, but I just liked her more and more as the series went on. She's good.

I actually see a little bit of myself in her, but then... I think I can see a little bit of most of the characters in the show in myself... except Ayame the snake. I can't stand him!

So, okay, where should I start reading the manga, so that it will pick up where the show ended? Or are they so different that it won't work?

I have never seen the anime, but i find the manga hilarious (i have only read one and two though)

favorite character: hmm cant say, i think the way the all interact and are so different is what makes it funny

oh and i love the "blah blah blah" sections lol

Personally, I suggest you read it all. As Kae will no doubt come in and reiterate ( ), I story telling is so much more complete. Plus, there's alot more in the manga than there is in the anime and the manga continues past where the anime ended. Read it! Woo-hoo!

um .. .. .. .. . ... . .. .. ...... *thinks so hard, she bites her tongue* OOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

5 out of 5, OF COURSE!!!!!

As for my favorite charactor(s), they will be Kagura and Kyo!!!!!!!!!!
I took a quiz on what charactor I would be, for fun, and I was:


KAGURA!!!!!!!!!!!!! I literally did this to my computer!!!!!! I was SO happy!

Was anyone else sorta weirded out when...

[spoiler]Hatori said he made it hurt on purpose when he gave Shigure a shot. I mean, I like Hatori but that's weird. What happened to "first, do no harm?" I guess it wasn't *real* harm, and it *was* Shigure, but still. I wouldn't think doctors would be immune just because it was a childhood friend.[/spoiler]

I think that the manga is far better then the anime, although i do love the anime. The one thing to warn you about is that the manga does become a little more adult then the anime. But still a wonderful story.

How much more adult are we talking about?

...The whole thing isn't out yet, according to the website that's releasing it. But it's pretty long, something like 14 vols, right?

That's a lot to buy.
But I like the characters so much from the anime, I might want to, eventually, get it all.

nooooooo

Tohru is MINE!

MSP and Tohry 4ever!!

Go ahead and have her!!!!

It's not too bad...Just some of the characters have adult relationships later on in the story.

I'm cought up to the latest chapters that are out in Japan, there is 18 volumes out in Japan so far the magizien Hana to Yumi is up to chapter 110. It was just released that there will be 22 volumes of FuruBa, so theres four more left.
