      @@galaxyamv8428 hi! i still haven't read the manga (I'm rewatching the anime) but I would say to give the anime another try as in season 2 manyy more things happen and you get a more in depth view of the characters' relationships/traumas + new characters. season 1 is..very happy compared to the other two seasons (especially season 3...it's a lot). also the ost for season 2 is probably my favorite :)

      @cottonhxney 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@galaxyamv8428 I’ve read the Manga and watched the original anime season and the reboot seasons! I would give Season 2 a try. The first season is a little slow on purpose because the 1st Version of the anime was considered too fast. In S2 of the reboot, it’s much faster since everything is established. I think the manga is a lot slower than the anime because there is a lot of filler, sub-plot that’s just,,, for fun,,,? (As in they don’t contribute to the main conflicts or solutions,, just feel good moments)

    I hate to say the "worst book" I read this year because it really wasnt a bad book, just the lowest rated of the books I read(3 stars). That book is City of Fallen Angels by Cassandra Clare. The best book I have read so far is Clockwork Prince by Cassandra Clare. As you can tell, this is my Cassandra Clare reading year. 🤣🤣

    I just read the chaos walking trilogy by Patrick Ness and I fully recommend them. I ABSOLUTELY loved those books the relationship between Todd and Viola is perfect and the character development is so good. Also, the antagonist is genuinely so well written because he’s not just an ‘evil’ guy, he’s incredibly manipulative and clever. These books have my whole heart, you should give them a try!

    Understandable! Fruits Basket is a total gem. I read it when i was like 12-13 when it got published here in germany in I think 2003 and I was so happy when it got it's second anime :D What you feel reading/watching it is a rollercoaster of emotions. From happy, to angry to sad to happy to sad again and at the end you are total wreck but it is worth it. Every character is so beautiful and important for the story and at the end it's all coming together. I would be so happy to see more of Furuba from you!

    I can't wait for Ari and Dante sequel! My favorite book I finished this year is definitely the song of Achilles. currently making my way through daisy jones and the six (like 2/3 trough) and FOR NOW, I don't really find it that enjoyable. also read my first Murakami in January and I hated it. I'm not sure if I picked the wrong book to start with but I absolutely hated South of the Border, West of the Sun

    Honestly, the original Fruits Basket anime made me cry and I'm not a crier. It's just so...like it breaks your heart and confirms your faith in humanity at the same time. lol Actually, the re-make at the ending made me cry too because we were able to see the whole series animated and it was just the best way to wrap it up. If you can find it...another good anime is Haibane Renmei it's mysterious and soft and interesting. It's been years since I've seen it, but my lasting impression is still positive.

Pleaseee vlog yourself reading the series, the anime was amazing, but there are even more wonderful scenes that didn't make it into the anime! God, I've reread the manga about a dozen times since I found it years ago, I'm so glad the anime helped you find this series
