New Meme Alignment Chart came to me in a fit of Mania this morning. Have fun kids!
This post is less than 24 hours old and I am having a GREAT time rifling through the notes and seeing everyone's OC's and series I've never heard of. None context with left tag screaming.
Yuki and Kyo agree about everything
When they aren't fighting, they generally share the same opinions about non-trivial matters. They're both deeply distrustful of the same people, they are the permanent male staff of the Protect Tohru Squad. They typically have the same reaction to things.
Kyo and Yuki both think that the other one is the one person in the world they hate the second most.
They both agree that the person they hate most are themselves.
Year of the Dragon - 2024
In this year of the dragon:
Hatori, Shigure and Ayame will turn 53
Kureno will turn 51 or 52
Ritsu and Akito will be in their late forties
Kagura will turn 44
Rin will turn 42 or 43
Tohru and Yuki will turn 42
Kyo and Haru will turn 41
Momiji will turn 40
Hiro and Kisa will turn 37
Pile on the years...
2024 is going to be the fifth anniversary of the remake.

Now, this day, here in the year 2023, I had someone come at me with "you can't ship Yuki and Kyo, tHey'Re cOUSIns!"
A. Show me the proof that they're first cousins (Hint, you can't, because no such proof exists)
B. Shut up your big discoursey mouth

Tohru reached across and touched his knee. “If you really want me to tell you…”
“I do. If there’s something that’s weighing you down, I’ll help you with it. Because we’re a couple and that’s what couples do.”
She took a few deep breaths and started. “I went to look at my appointment diary to find the vacation date. And when I opened it, it happened to open at a page from a few weeks ago. I use my diary for a lot of things, not just keeping track of appointments. Sometimes I write a few notes about what happened that day. And I write about other things I need to keep track of.” She looked him in the eyes. “And as I looked through it, I realized that I had not noticed missing my last period.”
"Hello,
I am drawing "In such a small world" & it is steadily progressing.
Please look forward to it (•ᴗ•)♡♡"
Yukikyo fic with a subsidiary Momiji/Tohru pairing where Yuki and Kyo give Momiji a terrifying shovel talk.
After which Tohru reads them the riot act for scaring her boyfriend from making a move, when she is a woman with needs.
I eventually wrote this. Though somewhat differently from my original conception. (I made Kyo and Yuki less douchey).

Kyo doesn't want to leave Tohru home alone when he's on his date with Yuki. He's sure he has a good reason to be overprotective.
He really doesn't. And he finds out why.

Over four years since I published "Invitation to Tea," the promised sequel.
How many fanfics is the new anime responsible for inspiring? The best way to answer that is to look at how many fanfics have been updated since the reboot was announced, and compare that to a control group: another manga and anime of similar eras.
There are 2545 Fruits Basket fanfics in Ao3. 1733 of them have been updated since November 2018, when the new anime was announced.
In that same time period, 1475 fanfics of Ouran High School Host Club have been updated, out of all 3570 OHSHC stories.
If the proportion of new Furuba fanfics had been the same as for OHSHC, then one would expect 572 updated fanfics over that same period.
One could then argue that 1161 furuba fanfics would not exist if not for the new anime.
And if relative production of fanfics continues at the present rate, the total number of Furuba fanfics will pass that of OHSHC by the end of 2031.
Currently there are a total of 3794 Fruits Basket stories to 4119 OHSHC.
However, when you eliminate crossovers, Furuba is ahead, 3480 to 3289.
So, I keep thinking the Furuba fandom has died out, by which I mean, reverting to its pre-2019 levels, but I keep getting proven wrong. Sort of.
I looked at the number of single-chapter, non-crossover stories first posted in the first quarter of each of the last 7 years.
2017 - 6
2018 - 13
2019 - 27
2020 - 52
2021 - 107
2022 - 135
2023 - 83
So, it's definitely past its peak, which one would expect, but still far ahead of pre-remake levels.
However, I suspect the number of readers has decreased more than the number of writers. It's not possible to do a one-to-one comparison because previous years have obviously had more time to get more hits, but the dropoff is pretty glaring.
This is the average number of hits of the five stories with the most hits from those years.
2017 - 805
2018 - 2619
2019 - 4582
2020 - 5107
2021 - 6300
2022 - 2535
2023 - 861
I should also point out that all five of the top 5 stories from both 2022 and 2023 are rated E.
I think it's fair to say that the readers are disappearing and those that remain are here mostly for the smut.
I'm going to continue writing--I've written Furuba stories for over twenty years and I'm not stopping now, so I'll just have to get used to less engagement then before.

Kyo and Tohru are clingy. Hiro is annoyed. And envious.
