Endings can be so sad
So, 4:45 in the morning, sun hasn't even started to come out yet... and I already know there is no way I'm going to sleep tonight.
I just read the entire last three books of Fruits Basket. Yesterday I purchased volume 20... and on a tip from a certain site, found the rest of the series. I won't say any spoilers or anything, cause I don't want to ruin it for those other big Furuba fans out there but...
The whole last three books. And I'm not sure how I should be feeling right now. The ending was so perfect. All the pieces came together and every question was answered. No loose ends. No bitter feelings. And no one left unmentioned. All the wrongs and right brought into light. All feels came to fruitation amazingly. And it was beautiful. It was marvelous. It was everything I had hoped for and more,
But Still... if it all ended so beautifully and perfectly, is it right to be feeling this way? So upset and lost. Crying in bed with my laptop on my knees and not knowing what to do...
Fruits Basket was always my favortie series. I started it my last year in middle school, and hear I am, a college freshman and it's still not even technically done in the USA yet!
I feel so sad! Just so tremendously sad, that this thing that's always been there for me and led me through so many hard times in my life and taught me so many lessons... Is Over!?
I don't want it to be over. All the characters, with thier problems and worries, they all pulled through, and taught me so much in the process! So why does it all have to be over!? Why dammit!? Why!?
This series was like my ancor! Even recently, when I get upset about something, I just pulled Furuba off my shelf and it takes all my worries away! I know that ancor will still be there... But what if it gets old?! What if I get tired of reading the same story over and over again!? What will pull me through then? You don't see that much good manga now-a-days... Most of it's just crap that shouldn't even be gracing the Book Store Shelves... there are no stories like that of furuba, no characters that make you love them and hate them. No stories that can put you from laughing to crying in a second. They just aren't there any more. These characters, Tohru, Kyo, Yuki, Shigure, Momiji, Hatsuharu, Hatori, Kureno, Arisa, Hanajima, Kisa, Hiro, Ritsu, Aya, Mine, Kyoko, Katsuya, Shishou, Ren, Kagura, Mayu, Kakeru, Machi, Ojii-san, and even Akito. Yeah, even Akito. have all become so precious, precious to me that is. And watching them grow and learn from thier mistakes was wonderful... I'll miss it so much... But it's done now. And there's nothing I can do.
Here's to one of the greatest stories and greatest cast ever. Forever Furuba, Forever Love.
