When this first came out, I thought they misspelled it with the 's' on Fruit. It stars an orphan girl, Tohru Honda, who meets a family possessed by the animals in the Chinese Zodiac. The curse turns them into the animals when they are stressed or embarrassed. It only ran for one season, 26 episodes. I wish it ran longer as it left some unanswered questions. What did you think of this? I think, for the short run, it was a simple, easy-going show for all ages.

While I haven’t read the manga all the way, I have watched the series. I’m always curious of how people who read as well as watch mangas compare with the other one. Do you prefer this series in print or on screen?

Did you know they remade the series a couple years ago? They animated the whole thing and is 3 seasons long.
 
I watched the first series, good enough that I plan on checking out the newer series and prequel movie.

I did not know that! I'll look into the remake then. Appreciate you posting this as I thought it was a great show but they could've went further. What do you think of the remake?
