Tohru Honda is 16 year old orphaned girl who gets invited to live in the house of her classmate, the handsome boy Sohma Yuki, and his cousins, 16 year old Kyo and 27 year old Shigure. However, these young men and parts of the rest of their family (both close and distant) hold a curse; if they are hugged by the opposite gender, they transform into animals of the Chinese Zodiac. Everyday is an adventure for sweet Tohru, as she gets to know everyone in the large family better (especially Yuki and Kyo), in both common and bizarre situations. But, the Sohma Family curse is certainly no laughing matter... it also holds horrible cruelty and heartbreak.

"It was cute and I love the characters. I felt that it was unfinished but thank good they decided to make the 2019 version and with an ending."
Norma Blanco
"It's a classic for a reason. Tohru is innocent and adorable. Her interacting and meeting every Sohma member is pure and innocent. You find yourself inthralled by the magic and the developing relationships. I tend to despise realistic fiction and even though it has a Supernatural like element to it, I love this. It helped open the door for anime to me. It's one that has clearly stuck with people and now inspired a sequel more true to the manga. Having read the manga and enjoyed its outcome I'm thrilled by the idea of it. Even though it is lighthearted it also hits some dark twists that tug at your heartstrings and can move you to tears if you're not ready. I highly recommend "

"This. Show. I have 8/12 collectors Mangas and I'm rewatching since I've been putting off the 3rd season. The premise is a little weird but omg it's so cute! "

"Both the original and the remake of this show was good! If your a fan of the Chinese zodiac, slice of life and supernatural, this is an anime I think you will enjoy! "

"This walked so the re-make could run. Cute, and special to my heart. I do still love this one, but it never finished the story so I mostly stick to the re-make these days. "
Sage Buchanan
"I'm rating this one cause I've only seen this version. I'd recommend watching the 2019 version though as I've heard it better"
Nazneen Dubash
"I enjoy that the show is unsual, and warm at the same time. I like the theme of friendship, romance, and surprisingly the drama in this show isn't too much for me to bear so, its really good and addictive."
