FRUITS BASKET-DON’T CRY, FOR THE SNOW WILL SURELY MELT-EPISODE 8-3 STARS

At the end of episode 7, Hatori demanded Tohru to visit him at the Sohma estate so that they could have a nice chat. ”Tohru, I hope you took some wrestling classes, ’cause Hatori could be a pervert.” She also wasn’t supposed to let Shigure, Yuki, or Kyo know that she was going.  Now this is kind of scary, not only could Hatori be a freak, but he also has the power to erase people’s memories.

Well, Tohru decides to go anyway, now at first I thought it was a dumb thing to do, then I saw Momiji, so I figured maybe everything was gonna be okay. You know, I’m really beginning to like that kid, he’s always so happy go lucky, and full of life, but I see he’s wearing another crazy ass outfit.

“Momiji, did anybody tell you that you look like that kid on the Cracker Jack box?” Now for all of you that don’t know what that is, too bad, so sad, look it up on the Internet. So Tohru meets with Hatori, and he’s being so hospitable, telling her to relax, and make herself comfortable.

Then he asks her questions like how she likes living with Yuki and the others, and blah, blah, blah. Then the final boom, he tells her to pack up her things, and get the hell out of there, before she gets a beat down from Akito. Okay, so he didn’t say it that way, however Hatori told her that it would be best if Tohru moved back in with her own family.

He says that the Sohma family has too many dark secrets, yeah and I know one of them, the fact that Akito is a psychopathic retard who needs to be stomped into the ground. Oh yeah, we find out a lot about that dude, or chick, or whatever, but we also find out a little bit more about Hatori as well.

Momiji reveals to Tohru that Hatori was in love with some chick named Kanna, and they were about to get married, when Akito wigged out, and blinded Hatori in one eye. Now instead of apologizing like a normal person would do, he blames Kanna, and from that point on, she never forgave herself.

Kanna’s self torture went on for awhile, so Hatori decided to erase her memory as a final act of love, I guess. You really have to see this episode, because words don’t begin to describe how dramatic it was.

Momiji is telling the story, but you actually get to see everything play out, scene by scene. Anyway, we find out that Hatori is really a cool guy, he just doesn’t want Tohru to get hurt in any way like he and Kanna were. Ahhhhh, how nice. However, I think if Akito tried to pull that stuff with Kyo, he’d get the crap beat out of him.

Well, that’s the end of my review, and I can go to bed now, but why do I feel like I’m leaving something out? Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you what zodiac animal Hatori is! See, Tohru with her clumsy self tripped, Hatori tried to catch her, but she ended up falling on him (don’t ask me how that happened), and he transforms into a seahorse!

You’ve got to be kidding, a seahorse gets accepted into the zodiac, and not the cat, now who in the hell is more popular? Oh wait, before I leave, I want to give a shout out to Akito, “Yo, Akito, you’re a f—-in’ idiot!”
