[00:03] ---
The rain should stop soon.
[00:06] ---
Let's wait a little longer.
[00:07] ---
Okay!
[00:10] ---
Say, it's almost time for final exams.
[00:14] ---
We have student council elections
before that, though.
[00:19] ---
Yeah...
[00:20] ---
--President Takei-san insists
that you be his successor, but...
[00:21] ---
--You alone are capable!
[00:23] ---
--It must be you! Rather,
I want it to be you!
[00:26] ---
...I suppose it's not something
you want to do, is it?
[00:30] ---
You're right.
[00:31] ---
I don't know what he
and others expect of me,
[00:38] ---
but they've got the wrong idea
about me. It bothers me.
[00:42] ---
The real me is more...
[00:46] ---
More what?
[00:47] ---
Nothing. Never mind.
[00:50] ---
Okay...
[00:52] ---
The rain seems to be tapering off, Yuki-kun!
[00:56] ---
Oh, it's Yuki.
[00:58] ---
Haru!
[00:59] ---
Hatsuharu-san?!
[01:01] ---
What are you doing in the rain?
[01:04] ---
What are you doing? You're soaked.
[01:07] ---
Are you lost again?
[01:09] ---
Looking for something.
[01:11] ---
I was looking for this one.
[01:15] ---
What a cute cat!
[01:17] ---
Knew she'd say that.
[01:18] ---
--Honda-san, she's a tiger.
--Huh?
[01:21] ---
Kisa Soma, a tiger.
[01:23] ---
Her bites hurt.
[01:24] ---
Oh, really? S-So she must
be the zodiac tiger.
[01:29] ---
N-Nice to meet you!
Um, I'm Tohru Honda.
[01:36] ---
Honda-san!
[01:37] ---
Eh...
[01:44] ---
"Fruits Basket"
[03:09] ---
Oh, no, you got bitten.
[03:13] ---
Y-Yes...
[03:14] ---
I-I-It surprised me.
[03:16] ---
Kisa, come here and apologize.
[03:18] ---
U-Um, I'm fine, really.
[03:21] ---
Kisa!
[03:22] ---
Yuki-kun, Satchan doesn't talk.
[03:25] ---
--Huh?
--She can't talk.
[03:28] ---
She stopped talking altogether
shortly after entering middle school.
[03:34] ---
According to Tori-nii,
it's a psychological issue.
[03:37] ---
It made her lock away all her words.
[03:40] ---
Stuff happened that made her stop talking.
[03:42] ---
and stopped going to school.
[03:44] ---
Then today, she ran away from home.
[03:47] ---
What?!
[03:49] ---
That's why I was looking for her.
[03:51] ---
I was surprised to find her as a tiger.
[03:55] ---
Found ya.
[03:56] ---
Did she bump into someone
of the opposite gender?
[03:58] ---
It seemed like she was just exhausted.
[04:02] ---
So, what actually happened to cause this?
[04:07] ---
You know.
[04:08] ---
What?
[04:10] ---
Bullying.
[04:15] ---
That hurts. What, are you mad?
[04:19] ---
Telling me not to shoot my mouth off?
[04:22] ---
Yeah, right.
[04:24] ---
You know how worried I've been?
[04:27] ---
Your parents are looking
all over for you right now.
[04:33] ---
O-Oh, what should I--
[04:34] ---
--Oh, you're bleeding, Hatsuharu-san!
[04:36] ---
--Calm down, Tohru-kun. She won't go far.
--Oh, you're bleeding, Hatsuharu-san!
[04:36] ---
--Calm down, Tohru-kun. She won't go far.
--We need to stop Kisa-san's bleeding!
[04:39] ---
I'll go stop Kisa-san's bleeding!
[04:41] ---
Calm down!
[04:42] ---
You're too calm, Sensei.
[04:44] ---
Haa-kun, did you quietly turn Dark?
[04:48] ---
Uh-uh. Just grumpy from the pain.
[04:52] ---
Don't know what to do with Kisa.
[04:55] ---
You seem pretty worried.
[04:58] ---
I didn't know you were so close.
[05:01] ---
--Jealous?
--No!
[05:04] ---
--He's no fun.
--Nope.
[05:05] ---
These guys...
[05:08] ---
I just feel like I have to help her,
because she reminds me...
[05:11] ---
...of you, when you stopped
talking for a while.
[05:18] ---
You curled up in a corner and went silent.
[05:22] ---
That was the only way
you could protect yourself.
[05:26] ---
She's doing the same.
[05:28] ---
Shut up!
[05:30] ---
Do you have to get so worked up?
[05:32] ---
Yes, I do!
[05:34] ---
Are you ashamed?
[05:43] ---
You always like to rub salt into the wound.
[05:46] ---
It's a bad habit of yours.
[05:49] ---
It's my nature, I'm afraid.
[05:59] ---
Kisa-san!
[06:00] ---
So this is where you were, Kisa-sa--
[06:05] ---
It doesn't hurt. Not at all!
[06:07] ---
N-Not one teeny tiny bit! Nope!
[06:10] ---
Anyway, will you come inside, Kisa-san?
[06:14] ---
Kisa.
[06:17] ---
U-Um...
[06:18] ---
Kisa, my daughter. I've been looking for you.
[06:23] ---
Shigure-san took the trouble to call me.
[06:27] ---
Tell me, what are you doing?
[06:30] ---
Why are you doing this and
causing trouble for everybody?
[06:34] ---
What are you thinking?
[06:37] ---
Do you enjoy making trouble for me?
[06:40] ---
Most mothers of children
possessed by zodiac spirits
[06:44] ---
are either excessively overprotective
or reject their children.
[06:49] ---
So, why didn't you tell me
about the bullying?
[06:55] ---
Why did you run away from home?
[06:57] ---
Why won't you speak?
[07:00] ---
I'm so tired.
[07:03] ---
I can't take this anymore.
[07:07] ---
She couldn't tell you.
[07:09] ---
It's hard to tell someone
[07:12] ---
that you're being bullied.
[07:14] ---
I couldn't tell my mom, either.
[07:18] ---
She found out after a while, though.
[07:22] ---
For some reason,
I started apologizing like crazy.
[07:28] ---
I felt so ashamed.
[07:32] ---
I started to feel ashamed
of myself for being bullied.
[07:36] ---
And I was embarrassed
to let my mom find out.
[07:41] ---
I was scared she wouldn't love me anymore.
[07:45] ---
I was scared...
[07:47] ---
...to let people know about
this part of myself.
[07:52] ---
I desperately tried to hide it
by pretending I was okay.
[07:56] ---
That made me feel even more ashamed...
[07:59] ---
...and embarrassed.
[08:02] ---
So
[08:04] ---
when my mom said, "It's okay,"
[08:08] ---
I was so relieved.
[08:11] ---
She said that there was nothing
to be embarrassed about,
[08:15] ---
and I cried again, this time in relief.
[08:19] ---
Kisa-san might also feel this way.
[08:24] ---
She didn't want you to hate her.
[08:28] ---
She couldn't tell you because she loves you.
[08:55] ---
Stay here? Kisa will?
[08:58] ---
Some things happened today,
[08:59] ---
and I decided to take her in for a while.
[09:02] ---
What "things"?
[09:03] ---
Probably can't hurt.
[09:04] ---
"Mogeta and Art"
[09:05] ---
It looked like her mom
was nearing her limits, too.
[09:08] ---
Might as well give them time apart to heal.
[09:11] ---
I have no idea what's going on.
[09:14] ---
So where's Kisa?
[09:16] ---
Satchan is stuck to Tohru like a burr.
[09:19] ---
Huh?
[09:22] ---
Did she fall asleep?
[09:24] ---
Yes.
[09:25] ---
She stayed close to you the whole time, huh?
[09:28] ---
She isn't too heavy?
[09:30] ---
No.
[09:32] ---
I envy Kisa.
[09:38] ---
Oh! Wh-Wh--
[09:40] ---
Just for a bit.
[09:42] ---
Let me do this for bit.
[09:47] ---
I was always ashamed of my weakness.
[09:51] ---
But I wanted someone to tell me, "It's okay."
[09:57] ---
To be my support and give me the courage...
[10:02] ---
...to want to be strong.
[10:08] ---
It's been three days since
Kisa started living with us.
[10:16] ---
Thanks for waiting.
[10:18] ---
It's a little embarrassing that
you wait for me even at the bathroom.
[10:25] ---
Sh-She's so adorable!
[10:30] ---
Strangely enough,
Kisa-san hasn't left my side
[10:32] ---
these past three days.
[10:36] ---
Which must mean that she likes me.
[10:41] ---
She's like a duckling.
Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.
[10:44] ---
Doesn't she find that annoying?
[10:50] ---
I love you!
[10:51] ---
She looks happy about it.
[10:56] ---
I don't really get it.
[10:59] ---
Oi, I'm hungry.
[11:00] ---
Oh, okay!
[11:02] ---
Kisa-san, what should we eat tonight?
[11:07] ---
Kisa, you can't even say
what you want to eat?
[11:17] ---
Now, now.
[11:18] ---
Ignore everything this idiotic
and weak-willed fool says.
[11:21] ---
Que será será, Satchan.
[11:23] ---
Oi, get off! Don't touch me! It's creepy!
[11:26] ---
Come on, no need to be shy.
[11:28] ---
--I'm not!
--As you can see, Kisa-san still has not spoken.
[11:30] ---
--Aw, really?
--As you can see, Kisa-san still has not spoken.
[11:32] ---
--Oi, get off! You're heavy!
--As you can see, Kisa-san still has not spoken.
[11:33] ---
Oh, yeah? Make me.
--As you can see, Kisa-san still has not spoken.
[11:41] ---
Ta-da! Let's use this!
[11:44] ---
Oh, gotcha. You'll leave it to chance.
[11:48] ---
Yes.
[11:49] ---
Kisa-san, point to the one you like.
[11:55] ---
You want that one?
[12:01] ---
Here we go!
[12:02] ---
♪ Cha-la-cha-la-la. ♪
[12:05] ---
--♪ Cha-la-cha-la-la. ♪
[12:05] ---
--What are you singing?
--♪ Cha-la-cha-la-la. ♪
[12:07] ---
And we have a winner!
[12:08] ---
"Garbage Collection Notice"
[12:09] ---
Tonight, we'll have...
[12:10] ---
"Scrambled Eggs with Chives"
[12:11] ---
...scrambled eggs with chives!
[12:12] ---
Someone's getting comfortable here.
[12:13] ---
"Garbage Collection Notice"
[12:15] ---
--Huh? Oh, no, that's not what I meant!
[12:18] ---
--Go ahead. Make it.
--Huh? Oh, no, that's not what I meant!
[12:19] ---
--Go ahead. Make it.
--Um, I'm so sorry!
[12:21] ---
--No, I didn't it mean
it that way. I'm sorry!
[12:22] ---
--I'm sure she'll speak to me
in an adorable voice one day.
--No, I didn't it mean it that way. I'm sorry!
[12:24] ---
--I'm sure she'll speak to me
in an adorable voice one day.
--Kyo and Tohru, sitting in a tree--
[12:27] ---
--Shut up!
--Kyo-kun, you actually
understood that jibe? No way!
[12:31] ---
But...
[12:33] ---
...she can't stay at Shii-chan's
house forever, right?
[12:39] ---
What will Kisa do?
[12:42] ---
She's probably thinking that
through right now.
[12:45] ---
She seems like the type to overthink things,
since she's a naturally serious girl.
[12:50] ---
It's probably how she
pushed herself to this point.
[12:53] ---
And there's her mom, too.
[12:59] ---
Momiji-kun.
[13:00] ---
Kisa-san's mom is okay.
[13:03] ---
Yesterday...
[13:05] ---
Is Kisa doing well?
[13:07] ---
Yes.
[13:09] ---
Kisa doesn't really like drier foods.
[13:13] ---
She loves scrambled eggs with chives.
[13:16] ---
Does that mean that
Kisa's Mutti is thinking of her?
[13:22] ---
Otherwise, she wouldn't have called, right?
[13:24] ---
Exactly!
[13:27] ---
Yeah.
[13:29] ---
Still, why was she being bullied?
[13:34] ---
I forget.
[13:35] ---
--Come on.
--I know.
[13:38] ---
I heard my aunts gossiping about it.
[13:42] ---
Kisa would have never told me this.
[13:46] ---
They said it was because
of her looks at first.
[13:51] ---
Like her hair, eyes, and that kind of thing.
[13:54] ---
They said it offended the other students.
[13:58] ---
It's the fate of those possessed by an animal
with unnatural hair color.
[14:02] ---
People made fun of me a lot, too.
[14:04] ---
But you just turned Dark
and knocked them out.
[14:09] ---
I'm better than Kyo.
[14:11] ---
He half-killed them.
[14:14] ---
He was a real problem child.
[14:17] ---
But the aunts said Kisa tried hard, too.
[14:20] ---
She told the others she couldn't help
what her hair and eye color.
[14:23] ---
After that, everybody started
ignoring her instead.
[14:30] ---
And even though they ignored her,
[14:33] ---
they'd laugh when she said something.
[14:36] ---
They'd snicker at her.
[14:39] ---
My... My classmates have
never done that to me.
[14:45] ---
So I could only imagine what it'd be like.
[14:51] ---
I imagined how I'd feel if people
snickered every time I said something.
[14:58] ---
That would... That would make me so sad.
[15:08] ---
All people do is laugh at you.
[15:11] ---
You become timider.
[15:14] ---
Then, you stop speaking,
[15:16] ---
even though you know it'll annoy people.
[15:21] ---
Everything becomes dark,
[15:23] ---
and you suffocate.
[15:26] ---
Your heart... and words die off.
[15:34] ---
Come on, class is starting.
[15:37] ---
Yuki.
[15:39] ---
I'm going to Sensei's house today.
[15:41] ---
I wanna see Kisa.
And I have something for her.
[15:44] ---
Something for her?
[15:45] ---
A letter.
[15:47] ---
From her homeroom teacher.
[15:49] ---
It'll probably make us wanna puke.
[15:52] ---
See you.
[15:56] ---
I don't think being weak is a good thing...
[16:00] ---
...but I also don't think "stronger"
necessarily means "better."
[16:03] ---
You sometimes hear
that it's survival of the fittest.
[16:07] ---
But we're humans, not animals.
[16:12] ---
Even those of the zodiac are human.
[16:18] ---
Yes.
[16:22] ---
Yes!
[16:30] ---
I feel a little braver.
[16:38] ---
What's it say?
[16:43] ---
"Soma-san, how are you?
[16:46] ---
Will you come back to school soon?
[16:48] ---
The rest of the class
is also waiting for your return.
[16:51] ---
You can always talk to me,
[16:53] ---
so why not try a little harder
to make friends with everybody?"
[17:04] ---
"The most important thing
is to learn to love yourself.
[17:10] ---
Find something good about yourself,
[17:13] ---
so you can love yourself.
[17:15] ---
If you hate yourself,
[17:18] ---
how can others love you?"
[17:24] ---
Yep, makes me wanna puke.
[17:30] ---
I... I also...
[17:34] ---
I also had a time when I stopped speaking.
[17:41] ---
For slightly different reasons.
[17:45] ---
But, like you,
[17:48] ---
I felt embarrassed and hated myself.
[17:54] ---
"Learn to learn to love yourself"?
[17:58] ---
What does that mean?
[18:02] ---
How are we supposed to find
something good about ourselves?
[18:08] ---
The whole reason we hate ourselves...
[18:12] ---
...is because we can only see
the parts we hate.
[18:14] ---
So forcing ourselves to find "good points"
feels hollow, like we're making things up.
[18:21] ---
It's not like that.
[18:23] ---
That's not how it works.
[18:26] ---
I think that it's only when
someone says they love you
[18:31] ---
that you're able to start loving yourself.
[18:36] ---
I think when someone accepts you,
[18:39] ---
that's when you start feeling like
you can forgive yourself a little
[18:42] ---
and start to love yourself.
[18:50] ---
Yeah...
[18:52] ---
Yeah...
[18:54] ---
Yeah.
[18:57] ---
It made me happy...
[19:01] ---
--Kisa...
--Kisa.
[19:03] ---
Kisa, what do you plan to do?
[19:06] ---
Do you want to stay like this?
[19:09] ---
No...
[19:11] ---
I can't.
[19:13] ---
I need to try harder.
[19:18] ---
Or... Or else I'll turn into
an even worse person.
[19:25] ---
Even if we can't be friends again...
[19:28] ---
Even if they keep ignoring me...
[19:31] ---
...I have to make sure
to try a little harder...
[19:35] ---
...or else.
[19:38] ---
You're right.
[19:41] ---
Let's try.
[19:43] ---
I'll try, too.
[19:45] ---
And, if you get sad again
or if it's too painful,
[19:50] ---
come here again.
[19:52] ---
She'll be here for you.
[19:57] ---
It's been a long time...
[20:01] ---
I finally got to hear your voice again.
[20:13] ---
Big Sister...
[20:16] ---
Big Sister.
[20:23] ---
Kisa-san!
[20:29] ---
I can't keep running away forever.
[20:33] ---
Even if my heart is still overshadowed now,
[20:38] ---
there will come a day when
I need to confront my weakness.
[20:44] ---
So that all those tears shed...
[20:48] ---
...are worth something.
[20:54] ---
And so, Kisa, despite her
still-wavering speech,
[20:59] ---
said she would go to school.
[21:01] ---
Yuki should've come, too.
[21:04] ---
He said that he has
something he has to do, too.
[21:07] ---
Truthfully, I'm sad that Kisa
won't be by my side anymore,
[21:12] ---
but I have to bear it.
[21:14] ---
Because Kisa-san mustered up
her courage and is fighting.
[21:20] ---
You can do it.
[21:21] ---
You can do it, Kisa-san!
[21:26] ---
Yuki-kun. What did you just say?
[21:28] ---
I accept your offer to be your successor.
[21:32] ---
I apologize for trying to avoid this.
[21:35] ---
I want to repay you for the trouble
by fulfilling my duties as a reliable president.
[21:41] ---
I hope you will advise me in the process.
[21:45] ---
Yuki-kun!
[21:46] ---
--You accepted the role for me--
--No, that's not it.
[21:52] ---
It's not like I suddenly became stronger,
[21:56] ---
nor did anything change.
[21:59] ---
My body still trembles,
[22:02] ---
but I'll keep facing my fears.
[22:06] ---
What's important is...
[22:09] ---
...the desire to improve...
[22:12] ---
...which stems from weakness.
[23:44] ---
"I'm So Sorry!"
[23:45] ---
I'm so sorry!
[23:51] ---
[23:53] ---
