Hotarubi no Mori e
|
-Gin of Hotarubi no Mori e and the entire Sohma family in Fruits Basket have the same curse that doesn't allow them to be hugged by humans.
-The heroines are both clumsy, silly, stronger than they appear, and strive to not be a burden to anyone. (Hotaru and Tohru also look almost identical as children, and as teenagers Hotaru looks just like Tohru but with shorter hair. Even their names sound similar.) They also both struggle with the curse of their loved ones.
-Both anime incorporate Japanese folklore, legends, and other spiritual elements.
-Gin is a lot like Yuuki, personality-wise and appearance-wise.
-Both anime are tearjerkers.
There are some similarites between the two. Hotarubi No Mori e also deals with supernaturall subjects. (Spirits and stuff)
But mostly because both of them deal with touching. In Hotarubi no Mori e if you touch Gin the spirit he'll disappear.
In fruits basket if you hug they turn into one of the Chinese Zodiac animals.
And it may be just me but Yuki and Gin seem a bit alike with there coloring and calmness.
