Episode 01: The Strangest Day
Posted by: Anonymous Club Officer in Fruits Basket, SummariesHonda Tohru - a 16 year old girl who lives in a tent. Her mother left her behind after she died in a car accident. One day Tohra departs her make-shift home and stumbles upon a house, outside of which the characters of the Chinese Zodiac are all lined up.
A man comes out of the house and begins talking to her. Tohru complains to this guy about the lack of a cat. Apparently there’s some story about how all the other animals of the Zodiac went to a banquet, leaving the poor little kitty all by himself. Her mother had told it to her, and she decided to take on the year of the cat rather than remaining a dog.
Imagine Tohru’s surprise when she finds out Sohma Yuki, the prince of her high school lives in this mysterious house. She takes some crap from her fellow students for having been seen with Yuki, but is saved by her two best friends, Uo and Hana.
The Sohma’s find out that she’s been living in a freaking tent, and so they let her in as a housekeeper. This is all great until she accidently hugs everyone. Oh jeeze, they’re members of the Chinese Zodiac.
