I've been watching Fruits Basket lately and I thought this was sad. Most of the members of the zodiac are either rejected by their mothers or the the mothers are extremely overprotective. I thought it was really sad when Momiji said his mother wanted to forget him. What does everyone else think of this?

Obviously it's very depressing, and its one of the saddest episodes in the anime, esp the part with Momiji... T_T Another memorable scene would be Hatori's case~ but I suppose that sorta fits under 'rejected' category; in that Akito didnt allow the two to be together...

I agree. I feel bad for Kana, Akito pratically drove her insane before Hatori erased her memories.

While there are some that are overprotective..these include: Kisa and Kyou..I thought that it was pretty sweet, but I suppose that's not exactly what they want either...
It was so sad how Momiji in return seems to want to protect his mother and sister, being at such a young age and knowing how to deal with everything. His father also does not allow him to appear infront of them often, nor get to know them...in vol13, it says there's gonna be more stuff about Momiji and his sister, I'm looking forward to read that part xD bound to be touching once again..

even though, they say the Yuki is gifted because he is born under the year of rat (or he is the rat) he is still cursed... still they say not many people know these people are cursed. SO, some of them are the same age, this means they are actually in reality born in another year. (confusing?  what happens if guests visit the families? would they pretend to be a happy family? (doubt it) The parents seem really disgusted in their cursed children, yet Honda and I think the audience don't. Are they gifted or cursed? probably just perspective. If only 1 parent was like Honda. (maybe that is also part of the curse) Well, over protective is better than rejected, because at least the parent looks after them although they seem to going through alot of pain in doing so. Kyo is the only one with the monster form yet the other animals are also rejected etc. |

Probably not many visit them xD or their kids are probably not at home. For the zodiacs who have been "rejected" by their parents probably too disgusted to even mention about them..and they don't really live with them anyway..parents might of found excuses to avoid mentioning them.
Currently reading Vol 14 of the manga and its about Rin and her past..another "rejected" one =( very, very sad..Rin is probably feeling guilty for asking that one question..maybe it could have turned out differently...maybe not (bound to happen someday)
So far, looks like Kagura has it alright...she'd the only one so far who doesn't seem to be involved with Akito and her mother loves her so..good for her =)
Would you guys consider Ritsu's mother to be overly protective? She seems very ashamed yet doesn't loves her son.
Most of the zodiacs blame themselves
