    i feel like the sudden feeling of not being angry at akito during this episode is pretty much that she was finally heard. tohru actually paid attention to her where no one else could and that got akito to possibly feel an emotional release. because remember: shigure was trying to help her in his own cold way, kureno was "helping" by staying with her but not doing anything to steer her in the right direction. the maids in the house practically enable her. yet here is tohru who saw and could put into words how lonely akito really was, and / still / made an effort to reach out despite akito lashing out at her with a knife.

    I feel like Tohru was projecting her feelings of Kyo leaving her behind on her mother’s memory and on Akito. This is not the first time Tohru wonders about being left behind. I remember her saying that on the school trip when Kyo walked by after the cat left him. She wondered then if he’ll leave her behind. Tohru herself feels left behind (although her mom leaving was because of an accident), which is why she promised to always keep her mom “always together!” So it makes sense for her to be conflicted about moving on (because initially she didn’t want to)

    • @cadr003

      The insecurity of being left behind stems way before her mother's death, all the way back to her father's death. It's been said that after Katsuya died Kyoko felt like she lost her reason for living and began to neglect Tohru. This made Tohru do all she could to desperately cling onto her by imperfectly mimicking Katsuya.

    Akito finally expressed her insecurity! Before she just abused people because of those insecurities, but it’s like she wasn’t even aware that she was abusive out of this fear. The first step to recovery is acknowledging the problem! This is probably why you’re not a100% mad at Akito 😅

    I can’t get over how real Tohru and Kyo’s love is. Even though Tohru has helped Kyo a lot, he’s also helped her move forward after the death of her mother. What really got to me was when she said she was willing to let Kyo go even though she loved him, because she’s always thinking about other’s happiness over herself 😭. This episode was so much that I finally caved in and read the manga.

  • @phantomslay5612
    @phantomslay5612 3 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    Akito and Tohru had something very important in common. They both wanted their own version of eternity. A world where they'd never feel hurt or useless again. Akito spited the world because she was terrified of leaving the home she was raised in all her life and her father's final promise to her. It caused her to lash out and fight. Tohru grew to love the world because she was raised by a mother who gave her a wider perspective. But in the end, both of them lost the people most precious to them and were desperate to prove that the world needed them for something. It was why Tohru was so focused on graduating high school and helping people, but never had a vision beyond that. It was why Akito tried so hard to prove her bond with the Zodiacs would last forever and couldn't be broken, because her identity as God of the Zodiac was the only thing she ever liked about herself. Different approaches, yes, but both Tohru and Akito are broken people aggressively smiling or grimacing through their pain, trying to never show how miserable and afraid they really are.

    As much as I can’t forgive Akito for everything she did to the Sohma Family(Yuki, Kyo, Hatori, Momiji, Rin, Kisa, Kureno etc.) I will give her credit where credit is due. Despite lashing out at Tohru earlier in this episode, she eventually opened up to her, went as far as calling for help when she fell, and even went to visit her at the hospital, which even lead to her actually smiling after all these years.

      Yes I also can't forgive her for what she did to the zodiac members, but I appreciate her for finally being able to open up and realize the mistakes that she has made. I'm glad that she had someone like Tohru to help her, without Tohru I feel like Akito would never be able to be her true self and own up to her mistakes. She's finally got a friend that doesn't plan on leaving her behind.

  • @AllTheArtsy
    @AllTheArtsy 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I think the magic of the writing was that all the time before, we had no context for Akito's actions. We just knew he was the head of the household and we assumed it was a powertrip. Then we fond out he was God to the Zodiacs and we were corrected in that every relationship with him was about power.
    But in these last episodes, we get to know who Akito is. Her troubled relationship with Ren. The things that Akira made her believe about herself and being special. And finally from Akito herself, her fear of being abandoned, of always being the odd one out, of being the only one who actually wants the connection.
    Shigure was trying to urge her towards this path, but he did it in a cold, distant and manipulative way (probably because a straightforward approach was out of the question at the time). Kureno stayed with her out of pity and obligation and only coddled her, which Akito herself recognized when she screamed "Why didn't you leave me before?" before stabbing him. Even Hatori treats Akito as if she is a child.
    But now, Tohru is listening to her. She is hearing her worries and she is not invalidating her. In fact, she recognizes that the things Akito wants are the things that she herself want. So that couldn't make Akito a bad person, because she only hopes for things people normally hope for-- to be loved, to feel accepted, to be treasured.

  • @melina_0455
    @melina_0455 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Your dismay at not feeling any anger at Akito made my day, seriously, and contributed a lot to reconcile me a little with the adaptation! XD This is totally relatable you know and you're definitely not alone.
    I know that it seems simple for a lot of anime-only, for Tohru to just let go of her mom and accept her feelings for Kyo. But remember that at the time the series start, her mom had died just three months ago, and the only way Tohru had to cope was by clinging so hard to the memory of her mom. "Always together". Talking to the picture of Kyoko as if it was alive. Cute wasn't it? It's no wonder that growing beyond her grief felt like a betrayal of sorts.
    That's why Tohru is able to relate to Akito so well. She understands at this moment the pain of leaving behind precious things and feelings. The sadness of goodbyes that have drown Akito since the time her father died and then Kureno's curse broke.

  • @mikhailpersad1208

    Lala.... I think it is because of the writing of the show, that we feel different towards Akito. Akito just admitted to wrong-doing and is now willing to change because of a little love from her mom Tohru, that Ren never gave her. Akito even changed her posture towards other people and her body language changed too, which we visibly see in the anime. Akito is a victim of falling for a big lie... the lie that is... she is special and is above everyone else, when she realized she is just as human as everyone else, she panicked and felt betrayed cause they lied and she believed it for her whole life and that life was wasted. That is why Akito stabbed Kureno, it was basically revenge for not enlightening her earlier about that. Tohru is a respresentation of a new life, a new beginning for Akito and she actually wants to accept it.

    Shigure has a partial conscience, at least; Hatori got what he was up to all along.
    In some ways, I feel Hatori was kinda open to Shigure's plan to use Tohru as a catalyst to reaching Akito/breaking the curse via snapping her out of her grandiose ideations/taking her out of her comfort zone and exposing her to the magic that is Tohru Honda (as a possible bridge from her inner world of Head of the Soma clan to the outer of the world/humanity). Not in a malicious way, but a 'necessary evil' or, in Tohru's case, a 'necessary good' that would shake Akito to her foundation and start her mental reboot with a true, supportive friend to learn genuine empathy from.
    That is all that was in my head.

    Akito was like that because she was raised in a very toxic environment without knowing genuine love. We think from the beginning that the curse affects only the other membres, but Akito is also a victim of that curse. Now we see the person that's behind all that and it's just like Kureno said "a crying girl, more lonley than anyone, more fragile than anyone".
    (The moment she stands up and runs towards the door is because she hears the ambulance if I remember correctly).

    I say that maybe the voice at the end is Kyo, but in a more ... sweet tone? Like, I mean, not in his serious or angry way, just being sincere from his heart by saying his feelings? Because his sweet tone did remind me of Kyo.

    No don't worry, you're not the only one. I feel like I can forgive Akito because she clearly feels bad and can't forgive herself. That's the beginning of a greater path and I don't feel in the right to not forgive because I think this is something anyone could become if raised under the wrong circumstances.

  • @caf0101931
    @caf0101931 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is, in my personal opinion, the best episode of Fruits Basket: The Final I've seen so far. Episode 9 was a true testament of Tohru's "power" to save the Sohma family by establishing common ground with the one person we've least expect to become ingratiated with Tohru - Akito. I'm incredibly happy that Akito was redeemed because both she and Tohru share a similar trait they both lack: self-preservation. When you think about it, Tohru yearned for the same outcome - "unchanging feelings", "eternity", with the one person that she felt indebted to, which was her late mother, Kyoko. This helped mitigate Tohru's fear of abandonment and feelings of loneliness; however, Tohru feared that she would eventually forget her past with Kyoko if she allows herself to step into the future and move on with her life; in other words, she was caught between 'honoring' her mother's memory and feeling 'indebted' to her mother's memory. The same concept was with Akito, yet the case was with her father, Akira. Tohru and Akito are two lonely girls yearning for the same thing - unchanging feelings, an eternal bond - despite their predisposed positions in society, yet they were afraid of moving forward with new things because they felt they wouldn't be able to preserve the memory of the people they loved the most: Kyoko and Akira. It's counterintuitive because Kyoko and Akira would 'want' their daughters to move forward in their lives and live it to the fullest with the new changes they would exhibit - in Tohru's case: Kyo.

    I’m happy that akito finally begins her healing process (with help of the others and honestly she definitely needs a therapist but now she’ll probably be ready to take that step!). She went through hell with her mom and has many psychological issues and now she can finally be free from all of that and learn to express herself and start a new life. I definitely do not begrudge her. However I don’t think she deserves to have a new fresh start with all the people she has wronged. I hope they all can learn to accept the past and that she apologizes by everyone individually but I wouldn’t like if they just negate what happened and try to play it down. Akito herself was aware that she did wrong when she did it, she didn’t know how to act better but that doesn’t justify and apologize her actions. She has inflicted mental torture and physical violence on a lot of these ppl for years, traumatized them and that’s why I think their relationships have been destroyed and are irreparable. That’s bittersweet and sad but so is life and I think her actions have to have consequences. And I don’t think that not wanting to see her anymore is not a sign of pettiness or resentfulness or weakness. You can forgive someone but still not want to see this person anymore in your life

    As a manga reader, I've waited years for this episode and it was amazing! 💓💓💓
    I was confused over the significance of the blue plastic, because it isn't in the manga, but it's from Tohru's tent from the first episode! This adds to why that cliffside was so fragile, as it's the same area that collapsed onto her tent back then. Plus, we come full circle to when Tohru meets the Soma's for the first time and becomes intertwined with the Zodiacs.
    The blood on his hand hit me hard (since the manga is black & white, it just doesn't have the same effect).

    They need full contact to transform, just a kiss doesn't do it. If you notice, Kyo's body does not touch Tohru's, just the lips

    The best way I’ve seen it described is that now, we have an explanation for why Akito did what she did. It doesn’t justify anything, but it does explain it. So it leaves us understanding why some characters (like Tohru) would want to forgive Akito and why someone people IRL or characters wouldn’t want to forgive her. And it both cases, it’s fine, as long as we keep seeing Akito growing

    So non spoiler from a manga reader but I really wasn’t 100% on Akito’s turn around/redemption when I first read this part. Coming things that will hopefully get animated helped me to be a little more okay with it and then the Sequel Series Fruits Basket Another just solidified it for me.

    The aftermath of the accident was more impactful in the manga, mostly because it ended right at the kiss if i recall correctly and left the Clift hanger of "did she survived?", Don't get me wrong the anime makes a heck of a job making you feel like she might die but since it was at the half way mark i think that hurt it a little when it came to the impact and the uncertainty

    From the start of this anime, i just didn't feel any hate towards akito. No matter what she had done towards them, i just feel sad and pity for her rather than loathe her. Idk why. I just sympathized. And i really felt proud of her in this episode. She had mistakes, but u know a person gets that attitude if she has a problem in her mind (mental illness i guess) . She was left behind, no one to guide to the right path, that's why she did those unforgivable things. She's broken inside, from the very beginning
