EARLY ACCESS Fruits Basket Season 1 Episode 4 Reaction

deeper reasons or not, she acts like a yandere and that's all there is to it. It's a description of how a character behaves, not their reason for behaving that way, be it good or non-existent. You're allowed to like a generally hated archetype, or just this instance of it, but don't try to explain the archetype away to justify that you like her, even if you reasons for liking her are unrelated to her being a yandere.

I haven't finished the show yet in later seasons. But I hate Kagura and it's hard to get through any episode with her in it tbh.

I wouldn't call Kagura yandere (just as I wouldn't call Kyo tsundere, either). There's so much more to both of their characters that their actions and feelings are much deeper than their initial characters seem.

I thought he was 28?

Have no fear Kagura gets great character development eventually! That being said shes still one of my least favorite characters in my personal opinion lol

*whispers* no one associated with the zodiac is functional.

i'm so excited for episode 7! just a few weeks to go

Francesca White

Your guys reactions are great. Either right on the nose or completely off but still great for the little context given in the episode. The clues your picking up on are on the right track. But I'm so excited to see how your perspective changes on some of the characters.

Tohru doesn't want to be like Kagura. She just appreciates how hard Kagura tries. She's not wanting her as a role model. But she has jealousy that she can love so openly. And I can understand that.

Kagura isn't yandere. It's just that the boar spirit makes her violent whenever she is passionate. Now I understand not liking her for say. Not giving up on Kyo because he isn't interested and trying to force a relation with him. But again it's partially the boar spirit. I do love where they take her after this. Because like many her introduction isn't very pleasing to me. Physical violence as humor isn't my thing. Except the Yuki and Kyo thing, that's concentual fighting as a sport sort of thing. But I can say there is more to Kagura then is shown right here.

Kayleigh McRae

Yeah, Kagura's introduction is... an introduction. That's the best way that we can describe this

Cy Palmer

Shigure is actually 26 lol

Francesca White

i wouldn't really call Kagura a Yandere, i'd just say she's really violent with him lol, i think it's a different thing. but yeah i hated her in this episode lol, the good thing is her character only gets better from here
