Series Synopsis
Tohru Honda (voiced by Yui Horie) just lost her mother. The two were very close and it has not been easy for the high schooler. Yet there is one lesson she holds close to her heart. She always tries to keep smiling.
The last thing Tohru wants is to be a burden on others. Even at the cost of her own health, she refuses to cause trouble for anyone. Even with this unshakable mindset, fate seems to have its own plan.
In her search for a place to stay, Tohru finds her way to the secondary residence of an influential family. To her surprise, this happens to be the home of her school’s top heart throb, Yuki Sohma (voiced by Aya Hisakawa). Learning of Tohru’s plight, Yuki offers her a place to sleep.
Before anyone can settle on the details, Yuki is ambushed. The attacker is a relative of his, Kyo Sohma (voiced by Tomokazu Seki). During this scuffle, Tohru learns of the Sohma clan’s greatest secret.
Yuki and Kyo transform into a rat and a cat respectively. They and other members of their family have been cursed. Whenever embraced by the opposite sex, they will transform into an animal from the Zodiac.
