Ain't that the truth! We met some parents who actually love their kids who posses the Zodiac spirits while some instead want to erase their memories like Momiji's mother for example but we know her situation or use them just to get to the same level has the higher up Sohma's like what Scum was doing and we recently saw Yuki's mother in a flashback in the beginning of Season 2 so we know that she used Yuki to get a better living situation cuz he's the Rat but there were signs of abuse in those flashbacks so she wasn't a good parent to both Yuki or Ayame.
The difference between these two fathers is exactly how the old proverb goes. It's not "blood is thicker than water," it actually goes "The blood of the covenant is thicker than the waters of the womb," which means the bonds formed by choice are much stronger than those formed by birth. Family doesn't mean shit if they don't truly care about you. Hot DAMN I love this anime!!!
The situation between Kazuma and Scum teaches us that blood relations do not make a family bond and that true family bonds are built on unconditional love, mutual understanding, and trust.
Family doesn't have to be people you're blood related. You can make your own. As the show goes on, we see that parents in the Soma clan aren't all great and loving. There are some, like Kisa's mother, but they may not be the majority. I loved that episode and this scene was great. I feel bad for Kyo's father, knowing he never move on from his wife death. But Kazuma is right and he prove again how much a father he is in comparison. I want to see more of them, and I know we will
BriThi Me, fearfully wondering what Yuki’s parents are like 👀 Based on what we’ve seen of Yuki’s past so far and all that he’s been through, it seems as though either his parents weren’t around much, or didn’t care much. Although them not being around much is basically the same 😔 but Yuki deserved betterrrrrrrr
@@lolcandybar3420 It's gonna be explore more in this season, sooner that you might think. I made my own predictions based on the manga chapter and I can't wait to see how they'll do it :3
Scum was largely to blame for his wife's death. However, because Scum shows nearly all the hallmark signs of a malignant narcissist, he constantly blames his own failings on others, particularly his own son. Narcissists are incapable of seeing any flaw in themselves, which makes them dangerous and volatile. Scum abused his wife for giving birth to a son possessed by the clan outcast, and rather than admit any flaw or failing, decided that he was the victim and deserved to take out his frustrations on anyone available. We never see Scum after this 3-minute glimpse, but I cannot help but wonder what spiral of torment he collapsed into once the curse was broken.
Wow, great job on this analysis. I love your take on the symbolism, and the difference between the manga and anime. Here's another take on something - the teacups, your take on the symbolism of their emotions was totally right, but I additionally felt that the way they handled their teacups, was they way each treated Kyo's heart. Watch the motions - Kazuma holds his gently and protectively, and gets to enjoy what's within, while Scum knocked his over so fast and carelessly you hardly saw it happen. What do you think of that?
YES oh my gosh this analysis is so well done. BEAUTIFUL. Thank you for making this! Someone commented about the "broken record" metaphor in one of my Fruits Basket manga/anime comparison videos, which is something I didn't see and you totally hit the nail on the head! The tea cup metaphor was in the manga but I was curious why they added the record player/classical music. But I think it's a great addition to the anime because it adds more to the moment and symbolizes that Kyo's biological father (scum) literally is a broken record - repeating "It's not my fault", being a broken person that's stuck in the past, never moving past his anger and grief. It's so fascinating what an anime can portray in ways the manga can't. Thanks again for the awesome video!
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it. It was a lot of fun to make. It's kind of crazy how in depth 3 minutes can really be. I was surprised the more I looked into it! Thank you for commenting! I appreciate your support ^^
I watched the anime Orange a while ago and I cried a lot and I thought I could never cry more over an anime BUT I WAS WRONG I CRIED SO MUCH OVER FRUITS BASKET I love that anime so much and this channel keep bringing fruits basket vids BriThi we all love u
I was listening the bgm and it took me minutes to realize it was from your lie in april? your reactions to Kazuma and Kyo’s father were just so profound and tangible, just comes to really show how great Takaya’s writing is, personally going through daddy issues, it was kinda a laugh in the furuba stan twt that we love Kazuma bec if we project it hahaha🥺💗 also!! the way you explain the teacup!! (and even the record player!) i never noticed that! i really appreciate the way you dissect things huhu (highkey excited for your dissection and analysis when you finally have answers to Shigure and Akito’s mysterious relationship)
It is your lie in April!! This month I try to use music from that show because I love it so much haha. Thank you for enjoying my analysis. I appreciate it
The future season/s will MAKE YOU CRY! As a manga reader (don’t worry I won’t spoil) I have read the manga several times and I STILL CRY. The series comes across as light hearted and happy, however there are/will be moments where you will ball your eyes out and perhaps relate to the characters... making you cry more
I love Kazuma! I didn't really know my dad growing up, older I got to know him and it wasn't good, I get Kyo's dad is upset but I hate when parents blame kids in this way Love the analysis ❤😃
really great points! also loved the renaming of ‘scum!!!’ ao accurate. Although at the end there it made me think that ‘scum’ sounded more disbelielieving than accusing when he said that Akito wasn’t going to allow Kyo to be free. Anyone else get that?
When kyo confront his father after the cliff incident , you realised that his mother loved her very much , she is doing her best , she did not think kyo as embarassment or a monster but his father that got into his mother head , his father doesnt realized he is the one that make his wife depressed and fall into a long despair , kyo and her mother are just a victim
Would the world judge me harshly if I said Kyo's father makes Endevor look like a saint? I mean Endevor (at least) acknowledges that he makes mistakes and tries to atone for them.
Kyo actually forgave him in the end I mean his biological father. I believe kyo never hated his father he hated himself. He never tried to harm his father like his father tried to harm him. Kazuma is an amazing father . His interactions with kyo are both so heartwarming and funny.
@@rawdasalmataman7908 He did and I think he understood why his father acted the way he did in the end. Kyo felt sympathy for him because he sees himself in his father.
@@laurenmungaray3912 I know he did I agree kyo understood his father but I don't think he saw himself in him Like I don't know about this part Can you elaborate on it? However I think kyo in the end grew to forgive his father and understand him
@@rawdasalmataman7908 What I mean is that Kyo was in the same place as his father. Kyo was blaming everything on Yuki because it made him feel slightly better about himself and that's what his father is doing to him.
I love Kazuma. He is a truly good father and a great person. He's a real father to Kyo, whereas his own father is nothing but shit. Seeing this scene reminds me of Avatar the Last Airbender. Kazuma reminds me of Uncle Iroh. Uncle Iroh was more of a true father to Zuko than Ozai ever was. Kazuma is a real father to Kyo.
The more you learn about the Sohma family, the more we come to realize that many of them are truly awful people. The zodiac members seem to be the few decent members among them, and a few exceptional satellite members of the clan.

Fruits Basket has some worst and some best parents.

When Kazuma sips the tea, there was so much Lipton Kermit energy.
Ahhh that is so funny!! I can't believe I didn't think of that haha.
Kuzuma is also my daddy...😳

You know I never knew the full saying for that. You learn something new everyday haha. Thank you for your support :)
@@BriThi Most people don't, and I think it's an important thing to know, especially for those who can relate to Kyo
The situation between Kazuma and Scum teaches us that blood relations do not make a family bond and that true family bonds are built on unconditional love, mutual understanding, and trust.
"He may have been your father, boy. But he wasn't your daddy"
Guardians of the Galaxy refferance!
I admire Kazuma for not hitting "scum", it's all I wanted to do
Family doesn't have to be people you're blood related. You can make your own.

Thank you Maddie! I appreciate you ^^. FB is sooo emotional, its crazy :0
Kazuma really makes my heart go BOOM yo
Can you believe he is 40+ years old thou :0 like that is wild
He’s not that old, probably 35+. He was pretty young when he adopted Kyo, after all.
Omg brithi this is the most earliest ever.
ITS NEVER TO LATE FOR MY ANIME LORD. IVE BEEN WAITING LIKE DAYS FOR U TO POST :D
Haha thank you for always being here.
Lmao

Thank you Haru!! I hope everything is alright with you now atleast. I care about cha!!
@@BriThi aww thank u, yes everything is good now, and I care about u too! ❤
Yesssss fruits basket! I really liked the analysis, as always. Kazuma is the best dad for kyo.
Kazuma is in fact the best dad haha ^^
The tea cups were a good catch. :)
You're gonna have to do another parent foils video after season 3 or 4. There's so much to unpack.
You were on point on the cup and the tea, the broken music record! Truly great visual symbolisms that sheds light this anime's messages!
I'm glad you enjoyed that analysis! It was fun writing haha.
idk what i’d do without these videos, no lies
You are my favorite friend :)
@@BriThi
You explained everything perfectly❤️ Thank you for your videos!
No problem! I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
Glad to see a fellow college student who is also very anxious about the future 👀

Not disappointed in season 2 and not disappointed in your videos.
I was deeply moved by this episode I need to read the manga to see how it compares.
Yeah season 2 has definitely not been a let down so far! Excited to see where it goes from here :)
This moment was my favorite part in the manga. And the fact that this is finally animated makes me so happy.
In my head cannon, at the end of Fruits Basket, Kazuma kept tabs on Kyo's father to make sure that the happy future of Kyo remains intact.
Would the world judge me harshly if I said Kyo's father makes Endevor look like a saint?
I mean Endevor (at least) acknowledges that he makes mistakes and tries to atone for them.
Kyo actually forgave him in the end I mean his biological father.
I believe kyo never hated his father he hated himself.
He never tried to harm his father like his father tried to harm him.
Kazuma is an amazing father .
His interactions with kyo are both so heartwarming and funny.
Yea, Kyo cared about his father's opinion of him and I bet it hurt him when his father blamed his mother's death on him.
@@laurenmungaray3912 like that's for sure
Even if he tried to deny that kyo did indeed care
@@rawdasalmataman7908 He did and I think he understood why his father acted the way he did in the end. Kyo felt sympathy for him because he sees himself in his father.
@@laurenmungaray3912 I know he did

Can you elaborate on it?

Dude you are passionate about what you speak❤️
this mans is the wholesomeness I didn't know I needed
I agree with every thing you said keep up the amazing work it’s truly amazing!
Thank you so much! I appreciate the kind words Lyla. You are amazing :)
Kyo's father is like those meme
But much tragic
That one dislike is Akito
This is just a suggestion, but you should probably do a video discussing who are the worst parents in Fruits Basket after the 2019 anime ends.
You know that actually sounds kind of fun! I'll write that down haha :)
@@BriThi Because I have read the manga and, trust me, there are a lot of awful parents in Fruits Basket.
I love Kazuma. He is a truly good father and a great person. He's a real father to Kyo, whereas his own father is nothing but shit. Seeing this scene reminds me of Avatar the Last Airbender. Kazuma reminds me of Uncle Iroh. Uncle Iroh was more of a true father to Zuko than Ozai ever was. Kazuma is a real father to Kyo.
First 🥰
In the english dub it he says kyos MY son
I love your review!!!! ヽ(o＾▽＾o)ノ
a tiny spoiler
I think I know why Kyo looked broken and was on the ground, there's more to the story !!!
Thank you Sheremy. I appreciate it.
The more you learn about the Sohma family, the more we come to realize that many of them are truly awful people. The zodiac members seem to be the few decent members among them, and a few exceptional satellite members of the clan.
kazuma is the literal best dad.... PEROID!!!!!!!!!
Seeing this finally gets anime was my favorite part of fruits basket. Kazuma emotionally beating the shit out his biological father. 😁
Fun fact: (no major spoilers) Hana-chan gets a minor crush on Kazuma, which freaked Kyo and Kunimitsu out. :P
Yesssssss
😫😼💗
