Flail! meme styled: Fruits Basket
Sep. 7th, 2013 02:03 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
On a whim recently, I decided to re-dl the whole Fruits Basket anime. The ones I already had were... pretty low quality, so I thought, "Hey, why not?"
After I finished downloading the torrent, I skimmed through episodes just to check the quality and all that... I didn't plan to watch the whole thang... but I did... in the past few days... So like usual, I'm having a bit of a withdrawal symptom now that I've finished it. (lol)
I can't remember when the last time I watched Furuba was, but I found myself going "OhhHHhhHH, I get the joke now" or "Wow, that was darker than I thought" and stuff like that. Noticing things I didn't notice the last time I watched it, understanding the perverted jokes (lmao) better now and etc.
Since I'm in withdrawal mode, I really just want to talk about the anime, so I scoured the internet for a meme/survey kind of thing. (hahah)
Le Series Meme. 2013 edition!
My chosen Series: Fruits Basket (originally taken off here. I changed it up a bit so I could just talk about one show. XD)
2. Who is your favourite character?
- Ahh... Such a hard question. I vaguely remember that before I rewatched it, I made Kyo my favourite, but I think I just thought so because I love KyoxTohru so much. (lolol) I shit you not when I say I kinda just like almost everybody equally now, but if you must make me choose one, then fineeee. It's Kyo.
3. What’s your favourite episode?
4. What is your favourite season?
5. What’s your favourite relationship?
6. Who is your anti-relationship?
7. How long did you take to finish the show?
- 5 days. (^o^)v
8. How did you become interested in the show?
9. Which seiyuu/actor did you think best fit their character?
- They all fit pretty well, with a few exceptions here and there, but I think Momiji's seiyuu reaaaally fit his character. Like, I can't even imagine him with another voice. I just can't. XD
10. Pick 3 characters (minus your most/least favourite) and elaborate why you love/hate them. Go!
11. If you could change one thing about the show, what would it be?
12. If you could be any character for a day, who would you be?
13. Give a random quote from the show.
14. Describe one or more of your favourite scenes.
15. How did you find the music?
- Whether or not I like it kind of depends on my mood. Like, if it came up on my iPod on shuffle, I'd probably skip it. But if I feel like it, I would search for it, and then probably listen to them on repeat while I drown in my feels for the show. Therefore, I think it fits the anime really well.
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go re-watch some of my favourite episodes. ;___;

1. Who is your least favourite character?
- If I minus out the non-Sohmas then I'm sorry to say... Hiro. Ok, I get that he's just a kid, and he expresses his emotions differently and whatever, but no. I don't like his condescending and judgemental attitude. Especially since he's just a kid.

3. What’s your favourite episode?
- Damnit, that's hard to narrow down! (lol) Not so much that it's my favourite episode, but more like, I liked it much more than I remembered: 'Episode 4: Here Comes Kagura!'. Tsundere Kagura was really fun to watch. Poor Kyo... And Shigure's house. XD
4. What is your favourite season?
- Furuba sadly only had one season. But I'll just go ahead and say I liked the first half more than the second of the series. It got all serious at the end, and while of course I like character development and depth and all that jazz, but I ultimately love Furuba for its humour, and it was more prominent in the first half. (Besides, I didn't really like the two episodes that were focused on the Prince Yuki Fanclub, and they were both in the second half -.-)
5. What’s your favourite relationship?
- KyoxTohru 4 lyfe! (wongfu reference lulz) I think when I first finished the anime way back, I was 50/50 with KyoxTohru and YukixTohru... but then I read the manga. <3 I realized what a lack of KyoxTohru there was (boo! :() as opposed to YukixTohru after rewatching it, which made me I understood why some people ship the latter more.
6. Who is your anti-relationship?
- Again, there's really no relationship I hate, even the platonic ones. But if I have to choose... I guess HiroxKisa. Solely because before Hiro came, I was shipping HatsuharuxKisa. (lolol) But don't get me wrong! I may not really fancy Hiro, but it's ok, I'm cool if he's with Kisa. :Db
7. How long did you take to finish the show?
- 5 days. (^o^)v
8. How did you become interested in the show?
- My friend, Shuf, blogged about one of the episodes, and I got interested in the story. I mean, how could I not? Humans turn into animals when hugged by the opposite sex! I had to find out what this strange anime is about. (lol)
9. Which seiyuu/actor did you think best fit their character?
- They all fit pretty well, with a few exceptions here and there, but I think Momiji's seiyuu reaaaally fit his character. Like, I can't even imagine him with another voice. I just can't. XD
10. Pick 3 characters (minus your most/least favourite) and elaborate why you love/hate them. Go!
- Shigure (love): He's one of the characters that made me laugh a lot. His weird bromance with Ayame, the way he bullies his editor, his obsession with high school girls, his teasing of Yuki and Kyo about Tohru... <3
- Kisa (love): Ugh, so freaking adorbs and presh. <3
- Hatsuharu (love): His love for Yuki that he tells people matter-of-fact-ly, Black Haru, White Haru... <3
- Kisa (love): Ugh, so freaking adorbs and presh. <3
- Hatsuharu (love): His love for Yuki that he tells people matter-of-fact-ly, Black Haru, White Haru... <3
11. If you could change one thing about the show, what would it be?
- Nothing really... Maybe I'd just get rid of the Prince Yuki Fanclub cause I don't see the point in them at all. ^^;
12. If you could be any character for a day, who would you be?
- I think... I would be Tohru. Just to experience the life of an outsider who knows about the Sohma family secret, being all happy-go-lucky 99% of the time, and have great friends that would protect me if I ever got hurt. <3
13. Give a random quote from the show.
- "I can see it clearly... On Kyo-kun's back there's one - a wonderful umeboshi." - Tohru.
14. Describe one or more of your favourite scenes.
- Scene 1: Tohru catching a daifuku instead of Yuki.
- Scene 2: Kana freaking out when Hatori turned into a seahorse.
- Scene 3: Kyo scaring schoolmates off so that they don't bother Tohru.
- Scene 4: Hanajima playing cards with classmates outside school when they're supposed to be running.
- Scene 5: Hatsuharu looking cool... only to be riding a bicycle.
- Scene 6: Hatori tricking Yuki and Kyo to take a picture together.
- ... there's so much more but I should stop. (hahaha)
