Fruits Basket chapter 127
We open on Akito sat with Tohru on the hospital bed, Uo and hana watch from the doorway. Uo is looking scarily manly today too.
- The banners explain that Akito has started to walk her own path and that Uo and Hana still won't agree to letting Kyo see Tohru.
- After hearing some news from Tohru, Saki and Uo ends up meeting Aki the previous day. As they're talking in the hall, Aki tells the two girls that although she doesn't know what Tohru has said to them, she tells them Tohru's wounds are her fault. However, as Saki explains, Tohru hasn't blamed anyone for her injuries yet.
- Aki explains that she'd heard about Kureno and Uo can once again think how caring Tohru is despite her own situation. {Assuming this is the day Aki went to visit Tohru?}
- Cut to the school and Yuki is somewhat scared to see a frozen from shock Kyo. Yuki asks what happened and Uo and Hana tell him that when Kyo had gone to see them to tell them he was going to visit Tohru, that had truthfully told him that Tohru didn't want to see him yet.
- Of course Kyo suspects they were just teasing him as usual but when questioned Hana asks if he really thinks she would lie about Tohru's feelings to tease him. She tells him he knows nothing as usual.
- Kyo remains silent long enough for Yuki to mention that he found it odd but whenever Kyo's name was mentioned Tohru would seem frightened.
- He says that more than not wanting to see him it's something else, but before he can finish Hana cuts him off by saying Tohru thinks she's been rejected by Kyo. {Seems she passed out before he kissed her.}
- Yuki says how terrible that is and Kyo asks how it could have happened.
- Once again Uo brings it back to Kyo telling Tohru she was disillusioned and that its the same as being told to go away.
- Kyo instantly says that its the worst misunderstanding ever and so he must go see her asap so she doesn't think it's true. He also asks why the group are staying so quiet on such a vital matter.{Also on this page we have an add for volume 20 which also came out today.}
- Uo once again gets angry at his questions saying she doesn't care about Kyos situation and that she's still upset that he made her cry.
- As a raging Uo and Hana leave Yuki suggests that Kyo should go to meet Tohru the day shes discharged from the hospital. He says that once she's back home he would have thought Kyo would want to keep her to himself and so by not going to visit her until then would allow everyone to still "have" Tohru and keep a sweet bit of selfishness.
- Kyo mopes once more, saying he doesn't even know how he feels and Yuki says that it is one thing in the entire world he would never want to know.
- As he's not allowed to see Tohru still Kyo wonders what he should do instead for the day.
- We cut to Uo and Hana once more, on their way to see Tohru again. Saki begins to wonder if they hadn't been a little too harsh to Kyo. She says that Tohru really did get worked up whenever his name was mentioned. Uo tells her that Kyo will just have to wait until Tohru is discharged from the hospital seeing as at the moment Tohru would probably run away if he went to visit her, and that for the while Tohru needed to rest and relax.
- Saki asks her if she was planning on visiting Kureno while she still could and we switch to an Uo inner monolouge on Kureno.
She wonders what hes managed to acomplish in his life and what he hasn't.
- We get a flash back of Akito telling Arisa of Kureno's situation, Akito still deeply upset by her past doings. She tells her that hes in the very same hospital and its because she stabbed him. She says that Kureno's forgiven her and breaks off saying she doesn't know what to do.
- Saki instantly dives in and asks if Akito is a woman. She explains Kureno had said there was someone he had to stay with and she'd realised that it was Akito.
- This upsets Arisa who then starts crying, probably assuming Kureno was in love with Akito. {Awww!}
- IM once more and she explains it wasn't just the thing about Akito she was disapointed about but something much simlper. The fact that she'd been left out.
- At that Uo hugs Akito and we cut to Arisa going into a room.
- She says that through all of Kureno's 26 year long life she'd been absent for most. She felt pathetic taking so much care over just one memory of one day and that it was at the she felt disapointed.
- We see that it is Kureno's room she has gone into and she goes to stand next to him. Kureno thought she wouldn't come seeing as he didn't have the right to expect such things from her. He asks her if she talked with Akito, he says theres something he still must do for her. When Arisa asks what it is he replies that he has to vanish. Because if he stays with her she will always worry about it until the end. {Assuming this "it" being her stabbing him.}
- At this Arisa tells him to go where ever he wants to go, and that where he goes she will follow. A surprised Kureno looks at her as Arisa asks him if he knows why she would do such a thing. However, blushing, she tells him that she won't say it. At this Kureno give the cutest smile ever.
- We skip to Kyo walking home, finding Akito stood outside Kazuma's home and asks what business he has there. At this Akito gets a little touchy, saying it was nothing that mattered and begins to leave. Kyo stops her however as there was someting he wanted to talk about. Akito brushes off the hand stopping him and tells him there is nothing for them to tlak about and that Kyo should live how he wanted to.
- At this Kyo stops, shocked and confused by what Akito means, when he begins to ask Akito begins to say again but says that she hates saying things more than once.
- Saki apears {yes from Kazuma's house} and asks if "A-chan" is leaving already. Of course this seriously shocks Kyo {as well as Saki suddenly appearing} and sadly Aki tells Saki that she's asked her not to call her than but Saki only says it sounds cute and she should have more confidence.
- Kyo asks what Saki is doing at such a place and she tells him that seeing as Kazuma had visited Tohru she'd gone back to his home as gratitude then laughs. {Oh dear, Saki's got some ulterior motives going on there.}
- At that moment Kazuma also comes out and Saki leaves to make some fresh tea. Kyo, both shocked and scared, realises they're being overly friendly to one another and then as Kazuma beings to talk to him notices that Akito is already leaving.
- Kazuma tells him that he'd heard that Kyo had gone to his father's home and that the talk between the two had also reached Akito. He tells him that Aki has promised to tear down the Neko home {!}.
- He continues to say that although its sorted out there will still be bitterness among his father and other members of the house and won't be as easily taken care of as tearing down a building. He tells Kyo that he's done well clearing one problem.
- Saki then comes out once more and tells the two men that they should continue their talk inside where it is more relaxed.
- We cut to banners once more as we see an empty room and moving boxes.
- We are told that after a while Kureno really did move out of the Sohma house. He didn't say a lot to those around him and didn't take anything that he couldn't carry. He left laughing, saying it was fine having it seem like he was never there in the first place. It is just as amazing how self centered some people can get. That its amazing that some people can also be so very self sacrificing. He says that its good that those people are that, that he thinks its great they're there.
- We leave the Sohma house and cross the city to a rural area, closing in on a small area with a river and blossoms falling. A hand reaches up to touch them as Kureno asks if its ok finding work out in such a rural place.
Arisa tells him thats theres no good or bad. But that this place is good and that it's no good if its not there.
- Kureno asks why but Arisa says she won't say. He persits asking her to tell him, saying that he wants to know.
- Arisa turns around and smiles at him as the chapters end, finally able to be together at last. {And if you don't cry at this then you have no heart!}
