Fruits Basket #01 — Ketchup is Tomato Jell-O

April 5th, 2019

 

That's as much fruit as I'm willing to engage in my basket.

Non-Impressions:

Don't mind me. Just poking my head in here to see if it was going to be just as I remembered, or if they were going to pull a fast one and it would be a Galaxy Angel-esque jaunt through madness instead of a close adaptation of the source as advertised. Hell, it could've even been another sequel to Hand Shakers. Now that would've been worth talking about. Probably. Actually, knowing Hand Shakers and W'z, it probably still wouldn't have been. Might've convinced me to do something other than fast forward 2-3 minutes every time the screen exploded in blushes, pastels, and sparklies though. Hence, I spent about the length of time it takes to a grilled cheese on this episode, and it was still probably too much. Tohru is still UberJesus Incarnate. It wallows in all the tropes that have been ground into a bloody paste in the last two decades since the first adaptation. It throws glare at the screen as a visual cue for "feel something now." Moving along.

    It is a good remake, yes Tohru will stay as a Saint but at least in this version she shows more different kind of expression compared to the manga same for the other characters. I don’t say you’re wrong but have to give credit that it isn’t a shitty remake like Sailor moon Crystal.
