Akito is... *tries to keep mouth shut* umm, he's not an animal... but he's still... umm.. *puts hands on mouth and run away* You're going to wait a long time for that to come out though!

PostPosted: **Mon Jul 26, 2004 6:20 pm**

oooooh! Tell me tell me tell me!!!!! I do not care about spoilers... use spoiler tags or pm me or something...what's akito?

PostPosted: **Mon Jul 26, 2004 6:38 pm**

*Gags Ducky and throws her in the closet* I'm sorry my dear, but that's what you get for trying to pry spoiler out of other members.

.

But, seriously, let's keep this thread spoiler-free. I will be seriously put out if I find something out before I read it.

PostPosted: **Mon Jul 26, 2004 6:39 pm**

I sent you private message. ^-^

PostPosted: **Mon Jul 26, 2004 7:29 pm**

Thanks for the pm RoyalWing

, sorry for freaking out Mangafanatic I didn't mean to get anything ruined for you .... I just love spoilers...

PostPosted: **Tue Jul 27, 2004 4:21 pm**

No problem. I've just gone to extreme measures to find anything out that I don't read. I want to be surprised.

PostPosted: **Wed Jul 28, 2004 8:52 pm**

I read them!!

PostPosted: **Wed Jul 28, 2004 9:29 pm**

So, waitaminnit. Is volume 4 out, and *does* it explain Akito's curse?

PostPosted: **Thu Jul 29, 2004 7:35 am**

If you'll refer to my siggy-- Volume four isn't officially released until the 10th of August, but alot of book stores get it on the shelf several weeks early. Atleast, I know some of mine do.

PostPosted: **Thu Jul 29, 2004 3:18 pm**

Okay-- so I'm double posting. Beat me if you must.

But I had to ask-- has anyone read the 4th volume for Furuba? I DID!! AND-- AHHH!!!

I think I'll just start a seperate conversation thread so I won't spoiler anyone's day.

PostPosted: **Thu Jul 29, 2004 3:20 pm**

:O I NEED TO GO TO THE COMIC STORE NOOOWWW.

I bet they already have vol. 4

they always get it a little early...

PostPosted: **Thu Jul 29, 2004 3:27 pm**

Run, Hikari. I really want someone to discuss it with. So-- um, I'll wait. *lays down in the floor and falls asleep.*

PostPosted: **Thu Jul 29, 2004 3:42 pm**

*rolls around* I need money. .-.

maybe I'll be able to get it next week.

PostPosted: **Thu Jul 29, 2004 4:26 pm**

Well, I know what I'll be looking for tomorrow. ^^

PostPosted: **Thu Jul 29, 2004 7:23 pm**

They have it? I should check my bookstore ... and then when they don't have it make the dude I know there get it...

PostPosted: **Thu Jul 29, 2004 7:44 pm**

I heard from my contact at Suncoast that her contact at Waldenbooks contacted her with the information that the 4th Furuba is at Waldenbooks, and they got it yesterday. I also heard from her that it was she who took the last Wolfwood chibi keychain. Grrrrrrr.

PostPosted: **Thu Jul 29, 2004 8:15 pm**

OH. . . I smell retribution.

PostPosted: **Sat Jul 31, 2004 8:33 am**

I'm reading the Furuba series ^^ I really like it. The thing I like that most about it is that you can learn a lot from Tohru and her reactions on how to be a better person, but the thing that counteracts it is Kyo's bad mouth (I wish he wouldn't cuss so much). I should go check for volume 4.......

PostPosted: **Sat Jul 31, 2004 8:59 pm**

ahhhhhh!!!!! thanks to Ducky and Lynx and little Jon-kun, I got reading furuba the day after this past birthday... B. Dalton won't get #4 until 1/2 way through August. our dear friend there must get it for us. The artwork is veddy enjoyable and there's a real storyline. yay! The flashbacks to when the characters were kids frustrates me a little because I know they won't be explained until several installments later.

I'm beginning to like the characters of Shigure and Hatori more as they develop. ...I thought Ducky was supposed to be locked in a closet for begging spoilers!?

PostPosted: **Sat Jul 31, 2004 9:35 pm**

I escaped the closet since the spoilers were pm'd to me... very good spoilers they were too! Yeah I asked Ken and he said not until august 28th... I might have to get it online before that... amazon must have it... hehehe calling my brother little jon-kun is fun!

PostPosted: **Sun Aug 01, 2004 11:09 am**

*stares jealously at manga*
I want it tooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!
*runs off to find my very own copy of vol 4 to glomp and read to death*
^^

PostPosted: **Sun Aug 01, 2004 2:49 pm**

I wish you would-- nobody is really wanting to disect it with me.

PostPosted: **Sun Aug 01, 2004 3:19 pm**

I have to determine if I want to buy it first

(but thanks for the PM).

PostPosted: **Sun Aug 01, 2004 11:48 pm**

As no one else has posted it, allow me to paraphrase Dom (of Megatokyo)'s friend:
[spoiler]
FB is like DBZ, only instead of high powered villains, they battle angst.

I'd pay good money to read a decent FB DBZ crossover fanfic.[/spoiler]

PostPosted: **Mon Aug 02, 2004 7:06 am**

Allow me to quote myself:

me wrote:No, it's not.

Angst is when teenagers over-dramatize the very day strains of existance and make them perfectly earth stopping. The characters in Fruits Basket may often display irritation (They don't really even do it often), but when they do there's just cause. Furthermore, the story really centers around Tohru who is always thinking outside herself rather than on herself. That is the epitome of anti-angst.

PostPosted: **Fri Aug 06, 2004 3:00 pm**

OK. It's just I find the idea hilarious. OH! I got volume four a few days ago.

PostPosted: **Mon Aug 09, 2004 4:57 pm**

O_O
*looks up at comparison of DBZ and FB and faints*
*now back awake*
WHAT?! No no no no no, they arents alike and FB is not all agnsty! Arrg, o well. . . Its only the best manga around, sweet deep, and almost real life like story (minus the animals part).
^^

PostPosted: **Mon Aug 09, 2004 10:57 pm**

MUST...GET...FOURTH...VOLUME..

I am SO going to the mall tomorrow (or today, whatever...hehe...) and checking at Waldenbooks, they tend to get most manga on time, NOT like stinky Books A Million and Barnes & Noble which don't even have the 6th volume of Hot Gimmick, though it was supposed to come out on August 4th!!! Anywho, I HOPE that Waldenbooks has it, or I'm going to cry and beg...MUST...READ...FRUITS...BASKET...

PostPosted: **Mon Jul 23, 2007 11:52 am**

I can't wait for volume 17!!
:dance:

PostPosted: **Tue Nov 13, 2007 7:08 pm**

My friend Autumn has all 17 FB manga. I have currently read through volume 1. I really want to keep going, but unfortunately will have to wait until after finals/papers...
So far, it's REALLY good...and hilarious! Especially Shigure...
