Graduations, redemption arcs, and happily ever afters... It's the final episode of Fruits Basket (but not the Fruitscast!) and if you know us, you know exactly what we're going to say: IT'S. SO.

Fruitscast Ep. 61: Lost in the Monologue Sauce

Jun 20 2021 39 mins  
This week, everything changes for the Fruits Basket crew. We've got myths, confessions of love, and just a whole bunch of hugs.

Fruitscast Ep. 60: Cold Refreshing Goke

Yuki confronts Kyo, Kyo confronts his dad, and Tohru distinctly doesn't confront anybody. This isn't the last episode, but we do spend a chunk of time discussing good and bad shoujo endings.

Fruitscast Ep. 59: WWTHD

Fruitscast Ep. 58: In Which Sarah Has Feelings

May 28 2021 60 mins  
It's the Kyo Show, at last! Somehow we didn't say that in the actual episode, but nevertheless, this week is all about Kyo and his feelings. Also our feelings about his feelings. Also Sarah's feelings about the anime writers. We laugh a lot more than you might expect!

Fruitscast Ep. 57: Validate the Child

May 23 2021 72 mins  
CW: Brief discussion of suicide (~5:20-6:40) Kyo has a nightmare, Akito has a bad day, Hiro's mom is still the best, and we get pretty deep in the weeds talking about adaptation choices and the importance of educating children. Would we even be The Fruitscast if we didn't overthink everything? Check out Katie's Etsy shop for some prime Fruits Basket merch (among other things)! ht

Fruitscast Ep. 56: Schadenfreude and Tears

May 16 2021 58 mins  
It's time for Tohru to open her own closed lid and face her true feelings. If you like emotional validation, photo-based horror, and digging way too deep into character motivations, you'll love this episode. Also, where my Zoombinis fans at?

Fruitscast Ep. 55: Symbolism Land

May 09 2021 46 mins  
If you like Momiji even half as much as we do, you're in for a treat this week. Our favorite rabbit is going through a lot of big changes, but he handles them all with grace and maturity (unlike this podcast).
