| Wow, I'm glad everyone loved Shigure's analogy as much I did. Definitely extremely relatable, I'm sure everyone has felt such anxiety due to the uncertainty of the future at least once in their life. That scene was definitely a good example of how anime adaptation can be better than the source (and I mean only that scene, so far, is better). I re-read the multiple times, and the most recent was last year, before the first season came out. However, I don't ever remember Shigure's analogy being this memorable or even making me emotional, yet in this episode, it was the best part for me. This episode packed in a lot of stuff, including wholesome interactions at Kazuma's house and Kazuma standing up for Kyou. But as soon as Shigure started his analogy, tears fell down. It was short, yet so powerful and inspiring. When things get overwhelming, or when I'm stuck inside my head, I will remember his analogy ^^ |
| D'awwwhhhhh, sweet Kyon Kyon -^___^- Shishou is a gr8 dad :D I wanna try somen hehe |
| I almost forgot about Kyo's adoptive father huh. Much better than the first episode, several Tohru x Kyo moments while more information about his real dad and conflicts about the future. |

LOL TOHRU i teared a little when shigure patted kyo's head :'( great episode, 5/5 sooooooooooo many tohru & kyo moments omg i love kyo........ “let's see, think of it this way. you're surrounded by such a huge mountain of laundry that you can't move an inch. you have no washer, and you have to wash it all by hand. would you get overwhelmed? you wonder if you can really finish washing them, if you can wash them clean, and if you're capable of getting satisfactory results. whenever you think about it, you get anxious. but time continues to tick by. now what should you do, tohru-kun? for the time being, you should wash what's at your feet, don't you think? it's important to think about what's ahead, but it's also important to think of what you can do now, in the present. if you continue washing one by one, before you know it...the sunlight will start peeking through again. the worry will still rise up in you sometimes, but in those times, take a break. read a book, watch TV, or eat somen with your friends.” ♥♥ |
 ꕤ but i’ll probably remember over and over again you were there and everyone else was there — the day we all searched for just one thing ꕤ |
| Ohhhhhhhhhhhh. I haven't read the manga so I absolutely no idea who's the guy Uotani is into. And I laughed so much when Hana mentioned about getting a job after college and Uotani retaliated that Tohru will not marry her hahah! Man, Kyo's father doesn't treat him as a human. GDI. Shisho please protect him huhu. And Kyo and Tohru's moment is too cute omgggggggg and Shugure's advise kind of resonated with me, surprisingly. |

| YOOOOOOO when Kyou slapped Tooru in the face I burst out laughing XD Love the angst in this episode, kudos to this anime for tackling problems that young people face, it's so good. |
 |
| Felt this episode on a personal level. |
 |
| At best its better focus on today and a bit for tomorrow aything beyond that will only get diluted and you'll be using up wasted effort. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Shigure message comforted me so much that i literally cried, i have a lot of anxiety about my future too, and hear those words helped me to think differently. Love this anime. |
| I could relate with Kyo to his old fear of a mere stain lol Jeez, Kyo's biological dad talked like they're not a family at all, while Kazuma was the exact opposite of him * "I'm used to your crying already" Oh I wish I would get used too |
| That was cute Why is this anime so cute? |
| Wise words from shigure.it is overwhelming to think about future, I like how they handled it in this episode.It is good to see kyos development. Need more scenes with Kazuma san and kyo. |
| It took me years to put in practice what Shigure advised Tohru. Even after I managed for the first time to put the stressful thoughts away and take things one at a time during an overwhelming situation, I still had difficulties in applying this method every time. However, there is one thing I've learned: this is the best way to avoid panic, and that's a very important thing! Panic only makes one lose time and effort vainly. |
| "The me today will not ever make the future me to regret!" (Emily Adachi from Air Gear: Kuro no Hane to Nemuri no Mori - Break on the Sky)  |
| An uncertain future certainly is exciting yet scary, especially the case for Kyo. I hope when the time comes everybody even his dad and Yuki will object to Kyo being locked up. |
 |
| better than episode 1, but still wants more meat. kyo x tohru is cute. they are so completing each other. |
| another cringe episode |
  |
| favourite ep so far. We got more kyo-tohru moments and i loved every second of that. |
| Every episode is just fun. I can watch a 1000 episodes of Fruits Basket and still not get bored!!! |
| This episode really hit the mark for me! It delved deeper into the somber reality that Zodiac members face, especially highlighting the bleak future awaiting Kyo. Witnessing the confrontation between Kyo's detestable blood father and Shisho, who defends Kyo with such fervor, was emotionally charged. It's impossible not to feel a mix of anger and sadness for Kyo's situation. 😭 His father's willingness to confine Kyo post-graduation until his death is heart-wrenching. 😭 On a lighter note, Kyo's embarrassment over his feelings for Tohru, coupled with everyone teasing him, was definitely the highlight for me! 😍 It's clear he's changed for the better since meeting her, making me wonder if Tohru might reciprocate his feelings over Yuki's, despite my initial support for Yuki. Kyo's unpredictable nature just adds to his charm, making him more endearing by the minute. 🤭❤️ Uetani's revelation about her love life and its subtle push for the main trio to introspect their feelings adds a nice touch to the narrative, hinting at possible romantic developments ahead. I'm eagerly looking forward to more heart-warming scenes this season, hoping for significant progress in the romance department. This episode beautifully balanced the heavy and light moments, making me all the more excited for what's to come!😍 |
