    conflicted, it was a beautiful ending seeing Tohru and Kyo be together but idk the age difference and meeting circumstances of her parents are just weird. they didn’t *have* to make him an adult and one of her teachers, it was so unnecessary and uncomfortable.

    As if the original series wasn’t perfect they then came up with this amazing prelude which ties so much together and just brings me so much joy!

    The last scene either tohru and kyo was ADORABLE. The parallels of kyoko and kyo and super sad.

    It’s good but it really could have been offered on streaming services.

    That 30min recap in the beginning wasn’t necessary. But once the real story got started… YESSSSSSSSSSSS

    Great prelude to the 2019 Fruit Basket anime. If you love the anime series. You'll love this movie.

    Some parts of the (kind of long) recap in the beginning were not that important and kind of random. If they were going to make the recap that long, I think they should’ve mentioned the curse sooner and not at the end lol. Still loved the movie regardless!
