Most of the film was a recap of what had already happened during the 3rd season. We assumed the other half with the information given during the entire Fruits Basket series. Nothing new was really said, except we got visuals for it. Baby Tohru was the cutest though. I will say I'm a little disappointed. We did get more insight on Kyoko's relationship with her parents, same with Tohru's dad. There were some uncomfortable scenes due to the large age gap, it was basically grooming. I mean Kyoko (Tohru's mom) was in junior high when she met Katsuya, while he was an adult. I think he was 21. I did cry through most of it though. This was probably best suited for someone who hasn't seen the anime and wants a general summary of everything that happened. Someone else said this and I agree, I wish I hadn't seen it to be quite honest. Again, it did make me cry but I was disappointed in the relationships and the film. And as another user said, it made me dislike some characters. There was really no point in the film. I'm surprised it has such great ratings. This is coming from someone who LOVES fruits basket. Take it as you wish.
