Fruits Basket Series Box Set 2004

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 risqu

User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars Fruits Basket
The price was reasonable (cheaper at other online stores), though I do not like the way they do not describe what “Veridian” meant, and ended up with an entire extra set of the first collection of Fruits Basket. I am happy with the delivery time, it was very quick, but the condition of the DVD boxes was uspetting. All of the center pieces that click the discs in place are broken. I am not happy about that.
