Fruits Basket Anime Series (2002) s01e07 Episode Script

Episode 7

I was so very happy when you smiled at me, A smile that melted everything away.
Spring is still far away, and within the cold ground, I awaited the time when sprouts would put forth their buds.
Even supposing today there may have been some pain, And though the scars of yesterday remain, You can go on living as much as your heart wants to believe.
You cannot be born again, although You can go on changing yourself, and so Let's stay together, always.
The Cultural Festival is about to begin.
Things at school suddenly became lively.
The same was true for my class-- Refreshments "Onigiri Stand" The same was true for my class-- Since all of the health inspections have been cleared, our Onigiri Stand can now be opened without any further hitches.
So now, once again, we would like to ask for your suggestions regarding the important matter of Onigiri ingredients.
Onigiri It's almost as if there was some fate involved Yes, what about having three-colored Onigiri? It would be fun to include three different kinds of ingredients in one Onigiri and more profitable.
How nice and appealing.
We'd better not do that, Sohma-kun! What would we do if there were salmon roe, onion & miso, and Umeboshi plums all put together? Bleah, that'd be the worst.
It's your personalities that are the worst, you know? Numbskulls! D- don't bring your iron pipes to school! What if we had an "Onigiri Battle?" Battle? A one-on-one, no-holds-barred, one-round contest! Where even should blood spout forth, or arms get pulled clean off, you fight for balls of rice!! Rejected.
What about something like a hit-or-miss? Hit-or-miss? We'll have anyone buying three of them to select one more at our expense.
However, there will be some "misses" mixed in with them, which have some strange ingredient, or something --Agreed! --That's great! What!? Why are you following his suggestion!? We aren't really following, like you're saying.
Yeah, your idea was just too weird! In what way? Who's going to get all bloodied up just to have an Onigiri? Don't get all sulky on us, Kyon-kyon! Hey, don't call me Kyon-kyon! What's wrong with it? I have to go to attend an executive council meeting, so I'll leave you to handle the lumber arrangements, okay? Mm-hm, leave that to me.
Ah, hold on! There's something I wanted to ask you.
Yeah, right, right! Yuki, about this here Yuki-kun, I have a question Ah, cats! Whoa, when did they get here? --Where did they come from? --How cute! Kyo-kun! I don't give a damn anymore! Strange Relax.
You're plenty strange yourself, after all.
You know, he sure has a violent temper, huh? A naughty boy.
The complete opposite of the prince.
I was right! I knew you'd be here.
Kyo-kun, you really do like high places.
Why do you always appear so suddenly!? Good day, cat-san.
You're so cute! You are indeed liked by cats, aren't you? Who knows why they do this? They come around on their own.
So do dogs to a Dog, and rats to a Rat.
What fun! How is it fun!? A long time ago, when I went walking through the mountains with Kagura, we were surrounded by dozens of boars.
I thought we were gonna be eaten! It's nothing to laugh over! Excuse me! Well? Something you wanted? No, I was just a little worried.
You were angry over something.
Aren't you going to participate in the festival preparations? With just me gone, so long as Yuki is around, things will go smoothly, right? He has everyone's trust.
Since long ago, he's been smart, he's known how to get things done, and he's gotten along with others, and everything.
Everyone around him just naturally acknowledges his talents, and looks up to him.
Even when it came to starting martial arts, I was first, and yet he's the better one at it now.
It's true, huh? The children of the Rat are special, aren't they? Yes, they're special! And compared to them, the children of the Cat are the children of the Cat are It's so disgusting! As for me, if I could be someone like that, I'd like to! Kyo-kun Kyo is Kyo is the type who attracts others I think.
Even though he can't be anything from the zodiac, I think it's better to be able to get on with ordinary people in his natural form.
I wanted to be like that, too.
So, Sohma-kun envies Kyo-kun and Kyo-kun envies Sohma-kun And even as they were both envious, they repelled each other, didn't they? Thank you for your hard work! Why is it people have to be jealous of someone, I wonder.
Why is it they don't notice the remarkable things about themselves, I wonder.
What is all this!? Are you planning on starting an Onigiri shop or something? Good morning! You're always up so early, aren't you? Not really.
This is normal, isn't it? Kyo-kun, that's-- --a leek Onigiri.
What would you make something like that for!? W- well, I was looking into "miss" Onigiri, for the Culture Festival.
Kyo-kun, do you have any good ideas? Riceballs are fine with just salmon or cod roe.
Geez, I'll make them myself.
Never mind! Kyo-kun, that's incredible! The way you form your Onigiri, it's quite skillful! Remarkable! How unexpected! When I was out training, I had to make my own meals and stuff.
But there's a difference between the appetizing ones and what I can do, you know? Still, if someone who had devoted themselves to Onigiri training were to see you, I think they would be jealous of how well you make them.
Who would ever do that kind of training!? Geez where did an idea like that come from? That still doesn't change the fact that it's remarkable.
Why is it he doesn't notice that? Maybe it's because it's stuck to his back.
Supposing that the "remarkable" part of a person was like the Umeboshi plum on an Onigiri, that Umeboshi could be stuck to the person's back.
Throughout the world, there would be various shapes, various colors and flavors of Umeboshi stuck to everyone's back.
However, since they are stuck on their backs, maybe they might not be able to see their precious Umeboshi.
They'd think "I'm nothing at all, just white rice, even though it isn't true-- even though surely enough, they'd have an Umeboshi stuck to their back.
If someone is jealous of somebody else, that's probably just because they can see the Umeboshi in the middle of their back.
I can see it as well.
I see it clearly, Kyo-kun--the wonderful Umeboshi on your back.
Sohma-kun is remarkable, and Kyo-kun, you are remarkable.
W- where do you get these ideas from, anyhow!? And for that matter, why choose an Umeboshi for me? E- excuse me! If you like, salmon is just as good! Excuse me, I've left the teakettle unattended.
Hey.
Yes? There's one stuck to you too on your back-- --an Umeboshi.
I can see it.
Really? A small one though, like a baby plum.
Baby plums are delicious! It's way, way little, though.
R- right! Even now, someone may be feeling envious.
They may be yearning after something they haven't noticed.
When you think about it that way, it makes you want to try harder-- just a little bit harder-- at being yourself.
And so, we reach the day of the Culture Festival Hey, this stand is crooked after all! Don't worry about something so small, cat-fanatic.
Yeah, cat-fanatic! As long as it's not broken, it's fine, cat-fanatic.
What is with you? All that "cat-fanatic," "cat-fanatic" stuff-- are you trying to make fun of me!? We understand.
You may have a smart mouth, but you're really a gentle guy who likes animals.
Right? Why, you! Let me tell you something about me and animals It's a good thing they all have him misunderstood.
Every time he comes around, that guy is annoying.
Even so, he has come back rather dutifully.
That's pretty rare.
Sohma-kun, you're Sohma-kun, and Kyo-kun is Kyo-kun, after all.
Yu~ki-kun! Upperclassmen? As it happens, we have a present for you, Yuki-kun! We wanted by all means for you to wear it for the School Festival, so we all joined in and bought it! Wear? Ta-da! An exclusive costume, just for you, Yuki-kun! Welcome! Would you like some? Thank you very much! "Buy 3, get 1 more as our present.
However, 'miss' Onigiri included!" Wow, we're doing incredible sales! "Buy 3, get 1 more as our present.
However, 'miss' Onigiri included!" We could get first ranking in the food category! The Onigiri that Honda-san makes are delicious! T- that couldn't be This cat Onigiri is cute, too! But the one person who has contributed the most to class sales is Hold on! Stop freely taking pictures! Yuki-kun doesn't like it! Indeed.
He is just overly adorable.
It's true.
It's as if Sohma-kun is out there pandering for us.
Have I done something to upset Sohma-kun, I wonder? Let it go, let it go.
It's gotta be more embarrassment than he can stand, being made to dress up as a girl, you know? He's got an incredible complex, after all, over his feminine features.
Yuki! Yuki, you look like a girl! What? What is he doing here!? Kyo-kun, is that someone you know? Momiji! Don't go running off by yourself.
You're looking well, both of you, Yuki and Kyo.
Hatori! You're a friend of Yuki-kun's? --He's so cute! --How cool! Good day.
I am Sohma Momiji.
This is Sohma Hatori.
We're both relatives of Yuki and Kyo.
Is that right? That's right.
Still, never mind Momiji, why's that bastard Hatori here? In that case, could it be that these two are also from the zodiac? All right, take a deep breath.
Hatori is a doctor.
Is that so? There's no reason for you to be seeing me here, is there? This is what you get for not keeping your appointment for your monthly check-up.
Check-up? Sohma-kun, is there something the matter with you? Mm-mm.
Yuki has a weak windpipe.
When he was a child, he was quick to have seizures.
It's the kind of thing that gets stronger when you're an adult.
This is just to be sure.
Are you Honda Tohru? Y- yes! Pleased to meet you.
Indeed.
You really are an "ordinary" girl.
Oh? Hatori! Don't! You can't climb up on the stand! What are you doing, you fool? My goodness! I'll be right back! Why have you come? Complain to Akito.
When he learned of the Culture Festival, Akito wanted to come here himself.
He had a temperature of 39 degrees, so I invoked doctor's orders.
As a result, I wound up having to come here instead.
Add to that me having to look after Momiji, and we both had to come see how you are.
You're not looking after him at all, are you? It's better that we came in the evening, when there are fewer people, isn't it? Relax.
I have not come here to do anything to Honda Tohru.
Whether or not I do that is for Akito to decide.
--You just sit still here! --Waaah, Kyo hit me! Kyo-kun? You're Tohru, right? Yeah? Yeah? Tohru, right? Honda Tohru? Yes, that's right.
I'm-- y'know? I am-- y'know? Momiji-san? You already remember my name? I'm so happy! Tohru, regard me kindly, okay? Sure! Oh, right! Tohru, you know about the zodiac thing, huh? Y- yes! All right! That means it's okay if I hug you tight, huh? Hold on, you amorous little kid! But Tohru doesn't mind if I transform in front of her, right? Think about where you are! So he is one of the members of the Zodiac after all! Are you monopolizing on Tohru because she's cute? After all, Kyo, you probably hug her every day, right? W- who would do such a thing!? Here's my chance! --What? --An explosion? Hey, what's the matter? Huh? What's with the rabbit? Where's Momiji-kun? Hold on, these are Momiji-kun's clothes, right? No way! That's weird! Where would Momiji go, leaving all his clothes behind? What's more, that rabbit! Where did it come from? This is all too weird! Say something, Honda-san! If that's the case, I'm the weird one! To think a boy should wear this outfit! You ridiculous fool! You're the greatest! --If you were a real girl, I wouldn't leave you alone! --Sohma! --That's right, it looks great on you! --Anyhow you look at yourself, all you see is girl! Thank you so much, Sohma-kun! Sacrificing your own body was a marvelous trick to divert everyone's conversations! You damned little brat! Don't you know what you did? You are forbidden to go out for one week.
But, but! You two are scaring me! Don't go hassling girls for attention straight off! Of all the You're just lucky Yuki was able to dupe everyone else so well this time.
He has a penchant for seducing the gullible-- Shall I send you flying even higher? Damn rat! Momiji, you have to be careful, you know.
Indeed.
You sure are one for upsetting people needlessly.
Come on, it's about time we went back.
But I wanted to talk to Tohru some more.
It would be a shame if you didn't stay around a bit longer.
Why don't you stay a bit longer before you leave? Ha'ri, you're so dull.
Get on home, now! I almost forgot something important.
Yuki, Kyo, go line up over there.
--Huh? --What? Give me a simple answer to my question.
What is one plus one? Two! I was told by Akito to take a picture of you.
I got a nice 2-shot of you.
See you later.
Bye-bye! Hatori! Just hold on! Ultimately, I didn't learn all that much about Hatori-san.
This is the worst! If Akito sees a picture of me like this Sohma-kun, you'll c- catch cold, and your bronchial tubes will! It's more wearisome staying in this outfit.
B- but everyone was so entertained! A man is not flattered by being called "cute!" Forgive me.
I, too, thought you were cute.
Honda-san, I didn't want you to see this either.
Not in this disgraceful I'm such a fool, aren't I? I guess I should have turned them down flatly.
Even so, I was happy whenever my mother told me I was cute.
It was having her tell me she loved me, after all.
Tohru, you're so cu~te! It made me very happy.
It was a form of her affection my mother though I can never have her tell me so again.
And so, it just means that everyone else likes you, and, um I'm not following-up with anything helpful, am I? It's strange-- when you say it, Honda-san, somehow I feel more at ease.
Well, maybe a little longer, as a service to the upperclassmen.
But before I do, could you take this for me? There's a button snagged in my hair.
S- sure.
It seems like a dreadful dress, both when putting on and taking it off.
If you were to wear it, Honda-san, I'm sure it would look good on you.
That wouldn't be true at all.
But I wish it could, like a princess would be.
You'd be cute.
Honda-san, you'd certainly be much more cute.
--Did you get the camera back? --Just shut up! It wasn't any use.
Honda-san Y- yes? It's about Hatori If you ever meet with him again, it's best that you avoid being alone with him.
Huh? Why is that? It's just It's not that Hatori himself is all that bad I told you about how, a long time ago, my true form was revealed, right? At the time, the one who covered up everyone's memories--it was Hatori.
That's why I got somewhat concerned, and thought I'd better tell you now.
Honda Tohru-san of 1-D Honda Tohru-san of 1-D, please come at once to the first floor conference lounge.
Repeating Who, me? What could it be? Anyhow, I'll be back.
Excuse me.
I apologize for having you paged.
Kyo aside, with Yuki around, it didn't seem like I was going to be able to speak to you properly.
Here we're all alone, right after he warned me! If I could get right to it, this is the address of the main Sohma estate.
Come call on us on your next day off.
There is something very important I wish to speak to you about.
It goes without saying that this is off the record from Yuki and the others, and you do not have the right to refuse me.
You do understand what I mean, right? What should I do? If I turn him down here, will my memories be covered up? T- then again, maybe there is something important he needs to talk to me about.
Even Mother said not to doubt others too hastily I understand.
Nothing to worry about! I'll keep watch on you two to make sure Ha'ri doesn't do anything indecent! So come on over, Tohru! Momiji-san! You little! Tohru is a girl, you know! She'll be afraid to be alone with a man.
Right? Tohru, you'll come, right? Momiji-san If Momiji-san were there for me, I'd be a little relieved.
Hatori-san had suddenly summoned me to the main house.
What's more, he said to keep it a secret from Shigure-san, Sohma-kun and Kyo-kun.
I wonder, what sort of topic will be waiting for me when I get there? Now let us circle together, around a pleasant dinner.
Come, take today's tears, and make them tomorrow's strength.
La, la, la Wonderful love and life La, la, la Adorable love and life La, la, la Wonderful love and life On the next Fruits Basket Episode 8 When snow melts, what does it become? It becomes water, of course.
Bzzt-bzzt! It becomes spring! She was as spring to me.
Hatori, forgive me I wasn't able to protect you Forgive me I'm the one who should apologize.
I was unable to protect you.
Curious, isn't it? The snow is certain to melt.
It's certain to
