Book Description
The world's most popular shojo manga continues With the beginning of the school year approaching, the gang returns from summer break--and what a vacation indeed! A new student council has been assembled, with two new secretaries: Naohito, who has declared himself Yuki's rival, and Kimi, who is known as a devil woman--and a thief of men's hearts. Later, when Tohru goes to see her grandfather, he brings up a part of Tohru's past that she had tried to shut away. And with parent-teacher conferences on the horizon, Mayuko gives Shigure some good advice. --This text refers to the Comic edition.

Reader Reviews
This review is from: Fruits Basket, Vol. 12 (Comic) After the dramatic events of the last volume, the pace slows down as the highschoolers prepare for parent teacher conferences. As this volume begins, Yuki's term as Student Council President begins while Tohru - having now seen firsthand what Akito is capable of and determined to free her friends from the Zodiac curse - secretly turns to Kyo's Shishou for advice. But the real meat of the volume involves Yuki and Kyo, who each find out secrets about someone close to them. Although he has never loved Kagura, she is still important to Kyo, having been his only real childhood friend. In this volume they finally hash out their relationship in a surprisingly serious and emotionally draining conversation in which Kagura reveals with startling bluntness the reason why she's forced herself on Kyo for so long. Yuki, meanwhile, visits Rin in an attempt to play matchmaker and repay Haru for always having his back. Their conversation takes a wild turn, however, when Rin changes the subject - and Yuki learns the truth about a critical moment in his life when she reveals that it was Haru - and not Shigure as he'd always been lead to believe - who saved him from his miserable existence in Sohma House. Another fine volume with some great character development. Comment | | (Report this)
