I will say I got that impression about the anime, when I first saw it in some AMVs, and of course when I saw the box set. Still I didn't really care who the target audiance was, as long as it was good. I mean look at escaflowne, I loved that anime, it was recommended to my by a girl and I would say it is generally aimed at women, but I loved the series. It was one of the best series of my life.

With fruit baskets as far as I have seen it was funny, and I don't really mind the tent part, besides it wasn't like it was going to be house for the rest of her life, it was only a few weeks or so.

If I did that I would end up with half good animes and also half bad ones like Dragonball Z. Try checking animenfo.com to find out what animes are good.
Well, I consider the people of this site to have better taste at least from experince form those I have talked to, and besides I did do some research before I came here. I talked to the voice actor at the anime anihime convention of 2003 plus saw those AMVs and read the back of the box and then went here for a little more convincing. It turned out that I like it so for from what I have see as most people said I would. That's why I asked and if I got mixed reviews I would look into each of the thouroly and then decided!

Heck yeah! I've seen 1-4. It's kind of dramatic and romantic, but at the same time it's sort of a comedy. You should start watching it (This is me, strongly recommending this anime...without spoiling it..), you get into and you want more.

Okay, I finished watching it. I thought it was a really good series so thanks for the recommendation. Ending was unexpected which is somthing I really like about it and it really had a good ending. Man if only I had friends like Hana and Uho (if I spelled that right). The only thing I really hated about it was that f*cking kid that turns into a sheep. I would kill him if i could, and the people that constantly constantly yell. But other than that thanks for the recommendation. It was a really good series!

I TOTALLY recomend it!!!! *Eventhough you already watched it*

I've seen all the episodes and it's got basically ..... everything!
You've got your innocent girl, all the guys are cute, they're extremely hilarious, romance, and a really good cast in general.

Oh and Evangelion Unit 01 I agree with you on that little annoying kid, I thionk his name is Heero, or something. I just wanted to slap him everytime he opened his mouth!! :evil: And to think that I actually now a little kid like him!!! But I'm not allowed to hit him!

I totally recommend this anime, not because of what other people are saying...but Fruits Basket is a good shoujo anime one of my all-time favorites...but however one my friends doesnt like it...because it bores him...heh.

I totally recommend this series...that is if youre into shoujo animes. ^_^

Okay, I have not seen the anime (I have it all on order) but I have read the books and I love them. But I am writing this response to warn you that if you want to buy it, DO NOT buy it from chapters.ca. I ordered it two months ago and it still hasn't come. Oh no, here comes the tears.

I haven't seen the anime yet
(excluding episode 1, 6+7 ^^), but I've
read all mangas until number 17..
..(yes, i understand a bit japanese^^'')
and I have to say that the manga is brilliant :P
The episodes I've seen were good, but the
manga is better...imo...
especially the thing with Akito... :oops:
And Yuki is such a mean guy... :evil:
But I don't want to spoil anything, so..I
leave it that way^^
Do we live to watch Anime or do we watch Anime to live?
