I...I...just got spoiled for Fruits Basket.

...!!!!!!

It was a one-word mood spoiler, really. Barely even constitutes a spoiler. But at the same time, it's a huge spoiler, depending on how the reader views mood spoilers. For me, sometimes, mood spoilers are much worse than plot spoilers.

I found out... that it has a happy ending.

That's good, right? I mean, I figured it would... logically of COURSE it would... but I would rather have experienced it myself, let the angst and tragedies of the Sohmas loom as a possibility right up until the last page.

Oh well. Just because it has a happy ending doesn't mean Akito doesn't kill someone before the end. I can see Akito taking out Shigure in a murder-suicide. Anyway, DON'T TELL ME! Spoilers are leperous to me; I didn't even want to know this little and really very guessable one! Silence!

Oh damn, it's been far too long since I read Fruits Basket. I think I stopped somewhere around volume 16... I gave up on scanlations because the translations were becoming unintelligable. I wonder how many volumes are officially in print in the US by now? How many there are total? I should go to Barnes & Noble tomorrow and just read them in the aisles. Graphic novels are great for that; you can finish one in anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour.

OH MY GOD, IT'S BEEN AGES, HASN'T IT? Since I got a furuba fix. Okay, I'm definitely going tomorrow. I'd go right now but they're closed cause it's way late.

It's been released in the United States through Volume 18, and there are 23 in total.

23! That's so many! I'm so excited!

By the time the 23rd comes out (god, FB takes longer than any other series in the US, I swear) I will have a job, and theoretically be able to buy all the volumes I haven't already purchased. (I think I have 11 or so.)

The first fanbook is out in English too. ^^ Which I'm not biased about at all, nope.

Sorry to hear you got spoiled. :/

I adore fanfiction, and I haven't read FB fanfic for nearly two years, on account of me quitting scanlations and all. Isn't that sad? It breaks my heart. This self-exile from fandom for the sake of avoiding spoilers... It's only because I love this series so much. I wouldn't bother with any other title.

Trust me, I know what you mean. I've tried to give up scanlations on all of the current series that I'm following, so I've been having to wait for each new volume to be released in the States. It's seriously driving me crazy.
