pictures where vernon is just some guy>>>>>
I keep coming back to how nevertheless keeps showing how it's communication that drives a relationship forward, and once the communication breaks down, the relationship starts to break down, too.
At the beginning of their relationship, nabi and jaeeon were clearly a fwb situation but also flitted around with being something more. However, nabi was too in her head to express most of her doubts and find out exactly what was happening between them. And now that jaeeon wants more, he keeps holding himself back from expressing all his own feelings until he's desperate (and even then! he doesn't tell nabi everything. he doesn't tell her the truth about seola, he doesn't tell her how he's actually fallen for her, he clings to the idea that vague gestures and sexual chemistry can be enough). And because they cannot get on the same page and communicate fully and truthfully, their relationship has always been more than a bit wobbly, like a chair with a leg about to break. Put a little too much outside pressure on it and it's going to collapse and break.
It's like when bitna and her dude got back together and he said she had to tell him these things for him to know. It's not enough to just imply things or act a certain way, you have to let the other person know. Even when bitna revealed what was in the package and tried to give him the keychain anyway (and thus show that she was actually invested in the relationship even more than she let on), it wasn't until she expressed out loud that she wanted to continue dating him that they could move further in their relationship together.
We see how nabi's relationship with dohyeok feels freer and easier than with nabi's relationship with jaeeon simply because nabi and dohyeok do communicate more. They stopped talking after nabi moved away and their relationship basically ended, but now that they're friends again, dohyeok actively tells her how he feels, not just about how he feels romantically towards her, but about his life in general. And after nabi stopped worrying about always seeming like a good person to him and admitted her "short comings," she interacts with an ease and a lack of worry. With jaeeon there is always a tension between what is being said and what is not being said, like a string that will break if you pull on either side too much. With dohyeok it's all on the table, and there's a clarity with being able to see all facets together.
Speaking of the tension between what is said and left unsaid, sol and jiwan were at that point, too. They were both having deep feelings for each other, and tiptoeing around what was friendship or what was more was making them both miserable. Then when sol finally admitted her feelings, they were both worried their relationship would snap. But it wasn't the communication that tore them apart. Rather, when they both accepted their feelings, and when jiwan expressed her worries to sol--that's when the tension dissipated. Their honesty with each other is what brought them back together. The restraint they had both been pulling at so tightly loosened and they were able to hug each other without anything holding them back.
In each of the relationships in nevertheless, all the characters worry that if they admit the truth about their feelings, that is what will ultimately tear them apart. But it's only when they make the choice to both engage in honesty that they really begin to repair their relationships. Their communication with each other is brings them together, and it's the lack thereof that actually ends up fracturing their bonds from each other. And those bonds between them stay fractured until they actively decide to patch them up. Despite it sometimes being hard to engage in, it's truth and communication that mend their relationships, not isolation and obfuscation we tend to retreat into when we're worried. The relationships in nevertheless are not perfect (to varying degrees), but it is interesting watching them unfold and how communication really does play a part in all of them.

๐Hanakotoba in EDEN ~Fruits Basket 2nd Season ED 2 ๐
~Part 2~
โ ๏ธNOTE: THIS POST MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS FOR THE LAST SEASON OF THE 2019 ANIME!โ ๏ธ
Ritsu Sohma
่ | Susuki | Pampas Grass
Pampas grass is a symbol of Autumnโthe harvest season and is used as a symbolic replacement for rice in the offerings at the Harvest Moon Festival. This autumn symbolism correlates with Ritsu's zodiac month.
Momiji Sohma
่ | Giku | Chrysanthemum
Red and Orange chrysanthemums represent cheerfulness, friendliness happiness all of which correlate with Momoji's upbeat and kind personality. However in some cultures yellow chrysanthemums can symbolize rejected loveโwhich correlates with Momoji being rejected by his mother and thus being forced to live separately from his family. This steep juxtaposition caused by the double meaning could be a nudge to hope Momoji hides his loneliness and longing from others behind a cheerful exterior.
Shigure Sohma
ๆฅ | Kaede |Japanese Maple Tree
Japanese maple tress have been associated with grace and serenity. These attributes compliment Shigure's lax personality. The tree is said to posses a sense of elegance and taste a nod to Shigure's sense of style and career. Maple trees can represent persistence and patienceโtwo inherent qualities of Shigures shown as he patiently waits for the curse to be broken and his schemes to fall in place.
Kagura Sohma
ๆณ | Yanagi | Willow tree
Willow trees represent sadness and freedom. Neither of which really suit Kagura. They look cool though...
Edit: In light of me rewatching the series recently I realized that in a way tye willow trees meaning do suit Kagura. Spoilers ahead: By the end of the series she has "freed" herself of her one-sided love for Kyo which while founded on pity gave her a sense of purpose and drive in life. Now having been freed of that sense of purpose she is left with a sense of emptiness and while she is undoubtably happy for Kyo, she herself is left alone and sad. However free of the curse she now has the opportunity to love whomever she chooses and do whatever she wants with her lifeโsince she is no longer bound to anyone and is no longer bound by anything.
Yuki Sohma
ๆก | Kiri |Paulownia
Paulownia trees were traditionally planted when Japanese couples have a daughter and as such have come to represent purity and femininityโa possible nod to Yuki's feminine appearance. In his hands Yuki holds a white rose a symbol of purity which is juxtaposed against Akiot's blood stained hands in the next panel.
Akito Sohma
Red camelias are said to symbolize being in love, perishing with grace, devotion, deep desire and nobilityโthe latter of which a reference to Akito's status as god of the current zodiac generation. Akito believes that she was born to be loved and that the members of the zodiac should be wholly devoted to her. This can also represent her deep desire to be loved considering the lack of parental love received during her childhood.
During a flashback scene shown in season three Shigure gives Akito a red cameliaโa symbol of his love, desire and devotion. He later gifts her a kanzashi and kimono patterned with the same flower. The dark and intense colour palette as well as Akito's blood stained hands in this panel contrast greatly with the previous panel of Yuki which has a softer colour palette.
Tohru Honda
ๅๆฅ่ต | Himawari | Sunflowers
Sunflowers represent cheerfulness, optimism, passionate love and radianceโall of which describe Tohru's personality perfectly. Sunflower heads turn to face the sun directly and all the flowers pictured in the panel are facing towards Tohru who is bathed in light. This protrays how Tohru's presence is like the sun for the zodiac membersโbringing light, positivity and hope from them despite their tough circumstances. Tohru reaches out her hand and smiles. It can be theorizing that this panel links to the forst panel of Kyo therefore surmising that the light Kyo is reaching for is Tohru and likewise Tohru is extending her hand towards Kyo. In other words Tohru's love is the light in Kyo's life freeing him from his dark circumstances. Her acceptance of him saves him from the dark fate suffered by previous cat zodiac hosts.

๐Hanakotoba in EDEN ~Fruits Basket 2nd Season ED 2 ๐
~Part 1~
โ ๏ธNOTE: THIS POST MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS FOR THE LAST SEASON OF THE 2019 ANIME!โ ๏ธ
Kyo Sohma
็ซน | Take | Bamboo
Bamboo is said to represent loyalty, strength and steadfastness. This correlates well with Kyo's stubborn nature and determination to achieve his goal of defeating Yuki. Kyo's determination to ensure Tohru's happiness (even if it does not include him) as well as his promise with Kyoka Honda at the end of the series to protect Tohru showcases his loyalty.
In the panel the bamboo surrounds Kyo as if imprisoning himโa reference to his supposed inevitable fate as the Cat of the current generation. He reaches towards a single beam of light. (Which is reference to Tohru in the last panel of this ending).
Hatsuharu Sohma
ๆพ | Matsu | Pine
Pine is said to represent longevity and steadfastness because the tree retains its green foliage all year long. Hatsuharu is a character who often provides counsel and support to those around him because of his inherent wisdom and maturity. Pine also represents new beginnings and hope. In the panel Haru is seen holding pink petals, some of which fall from his graspโa possible reference to Rin since in her individual panel pink peonies are featured. The petals falling from his fingers represent her slipping out of his grasp.
Kisa Sohma
ๆข ใฎ่ฑ |Ume no hana| Plum Blossom
Plum blossoms are seen as a harbinger of spring and symbolize perseverance, hope and patience as well as beauty and purity. This fits well with Kisa's character arc as despite her having gone mute as a result of bullying for a period of timeโshe has now opened up once again and positive changes are happening in her life now. This is reminiscent of spring after a long, harsh winter.
Kureno Sohma
ๆก | Sakura | Cherry Blossom
While Cherry blossom have an abundance of symbolic meanings; its most notable meanings are kindness, gracefullness and gentleness as well as the transience of life. Kureno is described as incredibly kind and gentle by Arisa and is described as graceful by Tohru. The fleetingness of and exquisite beauty of its blossoms has often been associated with mortality and an acceptance of destiny and karma. This aspect ties into Kureno's willingness to abandon his own happiness in order to stay by Akito's side.
Hatori Sohma
่ค | Fuji | Wisteria
Wisteria traditionally represents kindness, honor, wisdom and support which corresponds with Hatori's nature. Wisteria can also represent sensitivity, endurance and tenderness. The plant's tendency to grip tightly to trees in order to grow up straight has led to it coming to mean an unwillingness to let go. The two aforementioned facts relate to Hatori's previous relationship with Kana. Even after her memories of them as a couple were wiped, he keeps a photograph of her in his office and holds onto his memories of herโa symbol of spring to him. He is willing to endure a lonely life akin to a harsh winter so long as Kana can be happy even if her happiness is not with him.
Ayame Sohma
่่ฒ | Ayame | Iris
Irises represent friendship, glad tidings and valour all of which suit Ayame's audaciously bold and friendly nature. Irises can also represent loyalty, relating to his determination to better his relationship Yuki as well as his loyalty to his best friends, Hatori and Shigure.
Isuzu Sohma
็กไธน | Botan | Peony
Peonies represent compassion and bravery. Both attributes describe Isuzu's character well as seen when she risks her life while attempting to break the curse for Haru's sake. When Akito discovers Isuzu and Haru's relationship she also accepts all the blame and punishment in order to protect him. She feels compassion for those she considers as being kindโHatsuharu and Tohruโand goes willingly places herself in danger so as not to involve said people in dangerous affairs.
Hiro Sohma
่ฉ | Hagi | Japanese Bush Clover
The Japanese Bush Clover is associated with melancholy and unrequited love. This could possibly refer to how Hiro blames himself for Kisa's injury and how he laments not noticing that Kisa was being bullied and not being able to help her when she was mute.
Kyoko Honda
ๅฝผๅฒธ่ฑ |Higanbana| Red Spider-Lily
Red spider lilies are associated with loss, abandonment and reincarnation. Which it fitting given that Tohru battles with the loss of her mother and upon her death, Kyoko was afraid since she didn't want to abandon Tohru. Red spider lilies are said to guide the deceased into the next reincarnation. Butterflies are associated with transformation and souls which tue into the reincarnation theme. The bright crimson colour of red spider lilies have helped the flower become known for representing passion and independenceโthis corresponds with Kyoto's personality while she was alive. The crimson butterflies spotted around her are also a nod to her previous aliasโ'the Crimson Butterfly'โwhen she ws younger.
