maybe the reason people get jealous of each other is because they can see so clearly the umeboshi on other people’s backs.

saying that "why don't the sohmas stand up to akito?" equates to "why don't the victims stand up for their abuser?" which is a present issue in today's society. these sohmas had it rough and you can't just expect them to miraculously shove their trauma away and stand up against akito. it's unrealistic. even when momiji blocked akito, you can see the fear in his eyes. so stop questioning the victim and start pointing your fingers at the abuser.

Whenever Akito breathes or speaks:

if i ever met and befriended tohru honda, i simply would not treat her as my therapist/mother 

rip to EVERY SINGLE SOHMA MAN but im different

[isuzuapologist]

Rank the Sohmas based on how much you like them and why?

wow that’s gonna be a hard one to do..... i’m gonna put them in categories so i don’t have to strictly rank them.

not in any particular order!~

TOP 3:

yuki - first on my list! i already made a post about this but yuki is truly the character i relate to the most and i think his arc is not only my favorite but the most interesting to watch! he’s a treasure and the character i’m most drawn to. i always like to think he’d be the one i’d more easily befriend out of all of them!

isuzu - my sweet punk goth rebel... much like yuki her story and arc is one of the most interesting ones imo. in contrast to yuki, though, i think isuzu’s character allows us to see a very different side of the repercussions abuse has on a person. yuki presents well (overall) and keeps his problems to himself, but isuzu simply can’t do that. aside from that i just LOVE her will to fight and keep going, and her softer side. i adore her relationship with tohru.

kyo - how could i NOT have this absolute good of a boy in my top 3. i love love love his character and how much growth he’s able to achieve. i love his story, i love how he interacts with people!!!!! he has anger issues BUT i believe he is actually much softer with everyone around him than what it’s seen (which is often comic relief). super enjoyable character, and has everything i ask for in an orange haired anime boy. very cool of him.

love!!!:

momiji - very good boy. much brave. great fashion sense. really important member of tohru’s support squad in breaking the curse even if he’s not even aware of it. i think he just needs a tiny push to go at it like tohru and isuzu are doing. plus he really stands out to me for his courage. when akito hurts tohru in the beach arc momiji is the one who goes out to seek help and actively tries to stop the situation. meanwhile we see hatori, shigure and kureno (adults) standing in the back. vibing. even if momiji is scared to death he always does his best to make a change.

haru - adore him. love the way he takes care of people and his personality cracks me up all the time. his scenes are the best. although i wish he kept more of the attitude he had the moment he talked back to isuzu’s parents when he was younger!! he comes off as kind of passive sometimes even if i know he’s got it inside of him (hatori and kureno can’t relate). but anyway! truly love him. ((oh and the scene of his first kiss with isuzu didn’t sit so well with me.. anyone else??))

ritsu - i adore her. i think she’s relatable and a great portrayal of someone with anxiety!! (even if it is a litte clowned and meant for comedy) i don’t care if people find her annoying, i will forever defend her honor. she has a special place in my heart. how cute is she interacting with mitsuru??? how cute is it that she follows ayame around?? AND she’s a trans sapphic character hello?????? that’s canon. if i see anyone calling her a he i WILL throw punches. please refrain.

ok!!:

akito - hate them for obvious reasons BUT THEIR STORY... THEIR CHARACTER BUILDING............... OOF. super interesting, with an immense room for growth, they’re hot and they also make a great villain. pretty cool if u ask me.

kisa - baby!!!!!!!!!!! even though her story is short i love it and i wish we could have gotten more info abour her development in school. that would have been a really great chance to explore bullying without having it be based on flashbacks (also i’d die to see a scene where haru, rin and yuki go scare off her bullies. they’re terrifying. AND WHAT ABOUT YUKI BEING KIND OF HER MENTOR... oof) anyway i just love her. i’m also the year of the tiger so i couldn’t help but feel drawn to her when i first read.

hatori - i really like him but again, i wish he would MOVE MORE. take a stance. do something. please. if he wasn’t so much of a passive character he would be higher on my list. i find him interesting and you know i’m a sucker for emotionally distant characters but.. sometimes that just doesn’t cut it :/

hiro - essential for tohru’s growth!!!!!!!! he’s annoying but he’s so cute and has so much potential. i can’t help but find him to be sweet. i feel like we’ve all been a little like him growing up. belongs to the anger management (and bad bitch) trio along with kyo and isuzu.

ayame - can’t really relate to anything about him but he’s still pretty much here and queer, so props to that!!! also immense respect for mastering the art of being insufferable.

well,, :

kagura - find her kind of annoying to be honest. i still think she’s a cool character and i like that she helps out kyo in his growth + appreciate her humanity but eh... not really interested. her violent skits don’t really make me laugh and get old real quick.

shigure - love all his scenes, he’s incredibly funny and brings a LOT to the story. he’s ESSENTIAL. i just think he’s a deep, deep asshole. from what he does to akito (the ren thing??????), to the other members of the zodiac and to even mayu. i love him and enjoy him a lot but like.. dude. i can’t unsee that.

kureno - i like him and find him interesting but like............ he could have made such an impact and yet. kinda chose not to do anything. he has the potential to be a really cool character but. he’s disappointing.

Could you do headcanons for dating grown-up Momiji (Fruits Basket)? Thank you!

this is so cute omg yes yes yes!!

Momiji had always wanted to go to college.

As he grew older, the passion grew even more.

It became a driving force.

A way to prove himself.

That was seen in how he treated his partner.

He was passionate and driven.

Wanting to prove to them that he was worthy of them.

Especially during days he felt he wasn’t.

Momiji was searching to prove himself.

Academically, romantically, and work-place wise.

He was ready to drop anything for everyone else.

And he’d always drop anything to support his partner.

While Momiji was loud and energetic, he was a wonderful student.

He did his readings and did his work.

Even if his work wasn’t always great.

But he always appreciated how his partner was patient and supportive.

He was passionate.

Everyone recognized it and knew.

But sometimes it didn’t translate into quality work.

And sometimes it translated into awkwardness.

Momiji often tried to be romantic, but it came off as awkward.

He’d offer a rose.

Get down on one knee.

And beam.

“It’s yours.” He’d mumble out.

And would want the floor to swallow him whole.

His partner always thought it was adorable.

He was trying.

And they thought it was the cutest thing.

His awkwardness was charming.

Momiji needed goals set.

They brought him his drive to push on.

Motivation.

They gave him something to work toward and for.

He wanted to go to school for them.

But now?

Now he wanted to go to school for them.

“You motivate me like nothing else.” He’d always say.

It was what he could say eloquently every time.

And his partner always thought it was the sweetest.

Momiji had high energy.

And was always willing to try everything.

Even things he think he wouldn't like.

But he gave them a shot for his partner.

Watching sports?

He’d give it a go.

Orchestra?

Sure, why not.

Why?

All for his partner.

Everything Momiji did was big.

Extravagant and energetic.

His dates were always intricate and well planned.

He wanted them to be statements on his affection.

Sometimes, Momiji would just stare at his partner.

As they did.

Mesmerized by everything about them.

He’d turn away whenever they went to look at him.

Embarrassed.

Momiji loved being romantic.

But, in public, would always feel shy being affectionate.

He’d blush holding their hand.

Or giving them small kisses.

In private, he was never shy.

Always energetic and beaming.

Showing their face in kisses.

Giggling gleefully.

They were Momiji’s peace.

His home and stability.

He was always energetic, but they were his place to relax.

And he cherished them for that.

Eternally.

And he always would.
