1Big changes continue in this penultimate episode, including two new couples getting together officially, plus Tohru and Kyo making plans for the future. PDA! Translation! Bleach?!

This week, everything changes for the Fruits Basket crew. We've got myths, confessions of love, and just a whole bunch of hugs. It is, as always, so good - and best of all, it's still not the last episode!Check out Katie's Etsy shop for some prime Fruits Basket merch (among other things)!https://www.etsy.com/shop/bonesmakenoiseIntro and outro music:"Cheery Monday" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
Yuki confronts Kyo, Kyo confronts his dad, and Tohru distinctly doesn't confront anybody. This isn't the last episode, but we do spend a chunk of time discussing good and bad shoujo endings.Check out Katie's Etsy shop for some prime Fruits Basket merch (among other things)!https://www.etsy.com/shop/bonesmakenoiseIntro and outro music:"Cheery Monday" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
Akito confronts Tohru, and Tohru counterattacks with her strongest ability: EMPATHY! Unfortunately, Mother Nature cares not for such things, and our heroine finds herself in quite a predicament.

It's the Kyo Show, at last! Somehow we didn't say that in the actual episode, but nevertheless, this week is all about Kyo and his feelings. Also our feelings about his feelings. Also Sarah's feelings about the anime writers. We laugh a lot more than you might expect!Check out Katie's Etsy shop for some prime Fruits Basket merch (among other things)!https://www.etsy.com/shop/bonesmakenoiseIntro and outro music:"Cheery Monday" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
CW: Brief discussion of suicide (~5:20-6:40)Kyo has a nightmare, Akito has a bad day, Hiro's mom is still the best, and we get pretty deep in the weeds talking about adaptation choices and the importance of educating children. Would we even be The Fruitscast if we didn't overthink everything?Check out Katie's Etsy shop for some prime Fruits Basket merch (among other things)!https://www.etsy.com/shop/bonesmakenoiseIntro and outro music:"Cheery Monday" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
It's time for Tohru to open her own closed lid and face her true feelings. If you like emotional validation, photo-based horror, and digging way too deep into character motivations, you'll love this episode. Also, where my Zoombinis fans at?Check out Katie's Etsy shop for some prime Fruits Basket merch (among other things)!https://www.etsy.com/shop/bonesmakenoiseIntro and outro music:"Cheery Monday" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
If you like Momiji even half as much as we do, you're in for a treat this week. Our favorite rabbit is going through a lot of big changes, but he handles them all with grace and maturity (unlike this podcast).Check out Katie's Etsy shop for some prime Fruits Basket merch (among other things)!https://www.etsy.com/shop/bonesmakenoiseIntro and outro music:"Cheery Monday" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
CW: Brief allusions to child abuseThis episode has everything: A cute baby! Visual metaphors! Childish tantrums about foiled murder plots! People are finally starting to take a stand against Akito, and we are HERE for it.Check out Katie's Etsy shop for some prime Fruits Basket merch (among other things)!https://www.etsy.com/shop/bonesmakenoiseIntro and outro music:"Cheery Monday" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
It's the Yuki Show again, and we couldn't be happier! Join us as we learn the rest of Machi's tragic backstory and appreciate the emotional growth of various characters.

Finally, we get the scoop on what is up with Shigure and Akito. I hope you're watching close, because it's one big Shigure Moment. Featured discussions: aisatsu, cute teenagers, and otome game bad routes.Check out Katie's Etsy shop for some prime Fruits Basket merch (among other things)!https://www.etsy.com/shop/bonesmakenoiseIntro and outro music:"Cheery Monday" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
We're back for the final season! We pick up exactly where we left off with a big revelation about Akito, plus we meet a new Sohma family member.

We must bid farewell to Fruits Basket for the year, but we're given plenty of revelations to chew on in the meantime. We also talk about the unfortunate need for pronouns in English, Japanese flower language, and which other shoujo series you should consume in the next six or so months!Intro and outro music:"Cheery Monday" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
It’s New Year’s already?? If you say so. This is a weird episode, with two very different halves, but we have our protagonist Yuki to guide us through it! (Tohru who?) Unfortunately, it also features the worst translation goof so far.Intro and outro music:"Cheery Monday" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
The play's the thing this week, and it brought thigh-high boots! THIGH-HIGH BOOTS!! Plus a variety of personal epiphanies.Intro and outro music:"Cheery Monday" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/

At last we reach the "comfort" part of Rin's hurt/comfort story! For now, anyway.
