Fruits basket?
Do you like fruits basket? I do. I love it, one of my first ever shojos. I know it's a bit cliched and girly and stuff, but still like it.

Re: Fruits basket?
I liked the manga so much - I only watched a few episodes.
Loads of people hate it for some reason.
I think the story was really imaginative, but around volumes 16-20s, I find it got a little muddled up and the past was getting mixed up with the future.
But otherwise a good story.

Re: Fruits basket?
Yep, can be a little confusing especially around these parts, but yeah, overall a very nice story. And about the "loads of people hate it" part, I'd say, it's because it got mushy romance and stuff in the manga so yeah, might not suit a guy's tastes. It's only aimed towards girls.MoonCookieChan wrote:I liked the manga so much - I only watched a few episodes.

Re: Fruits basket?
The haters were 70% girls on another forum.
Perhaps some parts annoy them, but otherwise it has a good storyline, so I don't see what they hate.

Might be because those girls disregard the mushy romance part a well.MoonCookieChan wrote:The haters were 70% girls on another forum.

Re: Fruits basket?
I suppose so. But then there are many more mushy romance anime/mangas out there which are very popular.
Maybe some animes did the part better.

Re: Fruits basket?
Yeah, don't know why these girls don't kick out these ones to the curb myself. XD I mean, if they dislike fb so much, then they should also hate those shojos. I guess only shojos got mushy romance in them right?MoonCookieChan wrote:I suppose so. But then there are many more mushy romance anime/mangas out there which are very popular.

Re: Fruits basket?
Shojos are almost all romance, or if they aren't, they generally have a hint of it somewhere.
If you can't deal with it, why watch it?

lol yeah, a bit ironic how these girls could like one manga in the genre, and not another in the same genre, is it not?MoonCookieChan wrote:Shojos are almost all romance, or if they aren't, they generally have a hint of it somewhere.

Re: Fruits basket?
People don't really pick on smaller shojos as much, but as Fruits Basket is one of the most popular shojo manga, everyone is finding fault with it.
Re: Fruits basket?
thats true, but people didn't find faults in sakura card captors (a big big shojo anime and manga) as much as in contrast with FB I mean.MoonCookieChan wrote:People don't really pick on smaller shojos as much, but as Fruits Basket is one of the most popular shojo manga, everyone is finding fault with it.

Re: Fruits basket?
Isn't there less romance in it though?
Fruits basket is almost all romance, if you strip it down. ^_^

Re: Fruits basket?
Yeah, would be because of that. XD Sakura's more about magic and fantasy, so yeah. And the graphics and stuff are epic, amazing!!!MoonCookieChan wrote:Isn't there less romance in it though?

Re: Fruits basket?
It's magic girl, it's hard to find fault with! XD
Oh, but I heard Furuba won't have another series or something because the mangaka threw a tantrum at the way they've changed/manipulated the manga?
