hellooo!!! for my first blog post i decided i'd do a review on my all time favorite anime, FRUITS BASKET!!!!!!! 
just to be clear im referring to the 2019 anime not the one from the 2000s since according to my friend that recommended fruits basket to me, 'the old one sucks'
i think overall i'd give it a 10/10 (TOTALLy not biased) since i think in terms of every category they did AMAZING!!! just wish those age gaps weren't so... lets just say prominent. but thats my only complaint really!
i wont be all like "EVERYONE SHOULD WATCH IT, ITS SO PEAK!" i love this anime sm dont get me wrong but its definitely not everyones cup of tea so if you might be considering watching, let me warn/explain a bit about it before you actually dive in so you dont waste your time!
first of all, its a shoujo anime and ik a lot of people find those boring (like me but i can make a few exceptions) and its also REALLY sad. not gonna spoil exactly when it gets super sad BUT let me tell you its just straight misery for like 3-4 episodes (again not exposing what season they are) i cried so hard watching my voice was insanely shaky after. like even an hour or two after i stopped crying and was completely calm, i sounded like i was breaking down. it was really annoying but also rlly funny 
also trigger warning a big part of the plot has to do with child abuse so stay away if that upsets you (it shattered me so hard cus no one deserves that)
the plot is also built on the chinese zodiacs which is actually super interesting. i really liked that whole aspect and the characters are also all so cute!
and back to the whole age gaps thing there some really lets jsut say bad ones. it may be because im a renowned age gap HATER. no i dont wanna see a 20 year old get with a 15 year old thanks. and also you MIGHTTTTTT. get SOME let me be clear. SOME semblance of incest. none of the couples are related but like.. how are you gonna fuck a guy thats almost your father figure. weird but NOT actual incest and thankfully it's with like the characters nobody likes so wtv. im just really picky abt that stuff so if you are too, be warned.
from the way i was explaining it made the anime sound really traumatizing but it's actually not that bad since all the misery is spread out through the seasons so dw it wont all hit you at once!
so that was my review of the 2019 Fruits Basket anime! i definitely wanna do more anime reviews since i really like doing these kinds of things after consuming some form of media (shows, movies, books etc.) and getting my thoughts on paper (well computer but ykw i mean)
Thank you for reading! hopefully i'll see you next time!!!!!
