The Tower - Fruits Basket [Akito and Tohru]

[Pop77o7]

You know what I love about Akito? If ever you attend a cosplay convention... it doesn't matter what gender you are!

I still see Akito as a man... Never read the manga. No idea how psychologically confusing it is to find an anime character sexy when you're a heterosexual woman eying a character that is biologically a man in ONE version of Fruits Basket, then female in all the rest. lol

[CloudWatcherX]

wow wonderful! i love it :) i only read about half of the manga because my library didn't have the rest but i did watch the anime all the way through. ok Akito is a girl!!?!?!?!?!?!? *makes crazy shocked expression* O.O well Akito is a guy in the anime but thats odd that that would change from the manga to the anime. also does the manga go into further detail as to what happens to the Sohmas in the manga? can i read it online somewhere? if so where?

[KaleidoRaffa]

@CloudWatcherX You should finish the manga it's awesome! The anime ended in book 9 chapter 49 and you can read it on mangafox.com I think and you can search on google for it. Akito is a girl who was raised as a boy,actually shes the most lonely in the sohmas and a very sad person. You meet the hole zodiac and you get to know about Tohru's sad past they never told in the anime and the manga is waay longer and Yukis love for another girl. I can recommend it for u :D

[CloudWatcherX]

@KaleidoRaffa ok thanks :) i will check that out. 

[Kerosecstacy]

Simply put: Stunning.

[webkinztylover]

Is akito a girl???

[thewitchofthemidwest]

@webkinztylover Haha yes she is <3

[webkinztylover]

@webkinztylover she s just a jelous thatshes living with her love lol

[Kerosecstacy]

@webkinztylover Hehehehe, yup. The anime never got to that particular revelation, more's the pity.

You should read the manga, it's really a god damn beautiful story.

[WhoDoesNotExist]

This video is one of the most beautiful videos I have ever seen. It shows their wicked and sad relationship perfectly. *_*

[dudeofmeh]

i cant stop watching this its just so perfect, possibly my fave furuba amv EVER (manga AND anime) xx

[dudeofmeh]

this is such a perfect song from akito's point of view! love it xx

[BatgirlNightwing16]

Oh my god! That song fits perfectly!!!

[loveistrueandcool]

Amazing amv ;D!!!!!!! <3

[kiwigreeneyes]

I still can't get past how well this song fits them. It describes their personalities so perfectly, and shows how similar they are. Fantastic MMV. It made me love Tohru and Akito even more.

[prissy007hotmail]

That was amazing! Great vid!

[MissMarientose]

I luv this video. I admit I'm sorta a Tohru/Akito fangirl XD I hate that they made her a guy in the anime though :(

anyway, I've watched this video for about 2 years now and it's still my fave <3

[labrunedu74]

I love your vids, I like Akito, she is a great nasty byt I prefer when she was a boy... =P

[sano125]

Tohru and AKITO?!?! thats new. I was surprised by momeji and her but akito and tohru?? sheesh. doesn't he want to kill her though?

[MsMadameMim]

not really they become friends in the end

[cloudedsight]

=laughs=

This is not a pairing. Read the manga if you haven't. The ending will surprise you. ;)

[kiwigreeneyes]

@sano125 lol. Finish the manga, you will understand what this amv is really about.

[MissMarientose]

this video will always be my absolute favorite Furuba video. It's so beautiful and sweet, yet sad too.

[NinjaMuffinMaster]

<3

I love this song, and this video. It works great for those two.

[JiblathMichtort]

Beautiful!!! I've never heard this song, but it works well with both Akito and Tohru. :))) Thanks for a great vid!!!

[Hippigurl96]

[ChesterFanatic]

Hey where do you find the Fruits Basket comics if that's what you call them?

I want to read them but i can't find any of them because i do not know where to look...

[backspace2013]

but iv never seen a site to read them...

Idk.... google it you might find something. =]

[NinjaMuffinMaster]

Manga.

Try your local library,book store,or Amazon (dot com).

[NinjaMuffinMaster]

Manga. You can buy them on Amazon, but read them on..OneManga?

[StaneshiftTheWolf]

[zeldafreak219]

[gkshfutsiotjhsiofhhj]

@zeldafreak219 OneManga closed down a couple months ago :(

[hippielovers20]

@ChesterFanatic barnes and noble has them

[babyblues132]

Great job, it has real depth.

[SilentVixen363]

i loved it.

it shows who akito really is: a person who just wants someone to love her.

[StRaNgLeDbYlOvE]

o(^w^)o

[XXxxGummyBearxxXX]

i love ur video, it kawaii! great job 10/10 :D

[blacklotus1991]

I thought Akito is a boy not a girl, but good vid though =^.^=

[NaruhinaXSasusaku]

Well,that's what Ms.Takaya strived for,for us not to know she was female.

Not even most of the people in the FB world know she's female,until the very end.

[13angel19]

eeek!!! AWSUM vid!!! *gives a 5/5 and favs*

gr8 job! =D and can i kno wut the song is plz? ^^'

[Zefron17]

This is so beautiful! And so very well done!

5* and Faves! =D

[kimonocat001]

wonderful video!!

[nekosarah77]

luv it great job

[Phantomstruelove]

In some ways Akito is Tohru on a different more bitter and self-loathing path. Cool video!

[tohru1kyou1yuki]

Amazing!! You can rarely find a video that states the simerlarities and differences between Akito and Tohru, and a good one at that! What chapter are the pictures in 3:23 onwards from?

[Akisame]

Thank you! =D

The images are from chapter 130, and the final image is from chapter 131.

[ninjaYuffie]

ahh I love the ending!!!!^^

[LoloTaboto36]

ITS SO COOL! *______*

[emixpearl]

An amazing MV. The editing, the song, and the clips used couldn't be more perfect. It nearly brought a tear to my eye from the emotions shown through in the video.

I hate how people tend to overlook the parallels in Tohru and Akito - To me, they are so incredibly similiar. So seeing a rare and beautiful video like this really makes me happy.

Rating 5/5 and fav'ed! <3

[Hayden5075]

i kno people always look at akito as creul and unfeeling but if you look into her personality and her past more u would relize its not her fault.

p.s. awesome video

[LunaNayru]

It doesn't happen more than about once every couple of months, but every once in a while I come across an AMV that truly humbles me as an editor. I watch pieces like this one and think to myself, "With this, everyone should stop using this song for their projects. No one else's version can ever compare to this one." This is a truly remarkable example of one of those AMVs. Wonderful, mellow tone, perfect characterization, artistic, innovative editing, moving message- just phenomenal. *claps* :)
