| this episode was very complicated to me, i will try to arrange my thoughts. first we had yuki saying he sees tohru as his mother rather than love her as a girl. it's struck me out as the author just wants to make things clear for kyou x tohru. hell, nabe even said it lol. but the more the episode flowed i understood that maybe yuki doesn't even understand his feeling either. the hall scene was example for that he's still jealous. but still, previous episode made me pretty like yuki, so it didn't bothered me much. but then in that hall scene he was so arrogant toward kyou, it made me angry. and later with the stairs scene too. only when kyou shouted at yuki it kinda helped out for me to understand that the author kinda putted her sasuke x naruto rivalry between yuki x kyou lol, kyou never had actual mother and father to see him as their son, yuki has arrogant ones that doesn't think of him, each of them have their own problems but each actually wants to be friend with each other. damn this series is deep. i still wants though that yuki will race to tohru's heart, though it seems hopeless lol. oh and i like yuki and nabe bonding lol. |

| I can't wait to see what Kyo's relationship with Tohru's mom was!! And again, I really love the platonic love Yuki feels towards Tohru, plus Kyo's romantic love towards her <3 |

| That confrontation between Yuki & Kyo stung even more considering all of the recent emphasis on how Yuki has felt this entire time. Yuki's soft expression after Kyo vented just broke me up. It reaffirms the immense anguish I feel when I see how much trauma & agony the Zodiac curse has put these characters through. Time for one last breather before I take the plunge and binge straight to the end. |

| Yuki was told Kyo hated him and he believed it. He developed envy for Kyo seeing how quickly he got along with others and the 'freedom' he had. Kyo was shunned and compared to the 'perfect' rat so it made him despise/envy him. They're both victims of the Sohma family's bs and Akito's manipulation. But Yuki's managed to take more steps dealing with his inner feelings while Kyo hasn't gone that deep thus far. Yuki does seem to be trying to push him a bit tho. Looks like Machi saying that Yuki wasn't prince-like had some type of effect on him ~. |
| She sees her as a mother ? hmmm. Mixed feelings about this one. Mangaka choose to avoid a love triangle ? Then play the "i see her as a fri... as a MOM ???! " At least he could say sister or sum. But mother was unexpected. Even tough, I guess they'll be no "frustration" by the public because there isn't a love triangle here. Anyway fair choice. Let's see how it goes ? In the beginning of Fruit Basket, i was more expecting a Kyo x Arisa or Kyo x Kagura. But let's take this one. Girls love badboy, let's take it. |
Morpheus: The Matrix is everywhere. It is all around us. Even now, in this very room. You can see it when you look out your window or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work... when you go to church... when you pay your taxes. It is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth. Neo: What truth? Morpheus: That you are a slave, Neo. |

I've always been on team Kyo. But I don't like the way they settled Yuki's feelings for her as "motherly". It just felt wrong after all that time. I would have preferred if they retained it as romantic love :(
| @llolzcalai I think this is something most people expect simply because they're a girl and boy. The author just played with that. |
