Yes, I went crazy for Fruits Basket. Craaaazy. I just bought the anime, I bought three more volumes (and buying the rest tomorrow), I went looking for wallpapers. Just as well, as I just finished my Ayashi No Ceres: Toya! I love you. How can you not love a guy who is in the middle of a mad fight, being all bad-ass and conentrated and destructive, and he tells the opponent (the Progenitor, who's been after Aya this whole time) 'I exist only for her' and mean it. *dies* OMG! And he found out she is having his baby and I love the panel where he reaches out and touches her stomach and his eyes are wet. (Progenitor, it's not a good idea to tell the guy you are fighting and who is doing a good job of murdering you as is, that you will kill the woman for whom he literally came back from the dead, and his unborn child). The ending makes me cry, with Aya and Toya ready to face anything, including the possibility that their time together may be short, and Aya heavily pregnant, and dreaming of all her dead friends and family.
But anyway, this is a sidetrack. I went looking for FB pics and fanfic (and I did find some good fic) but on that forum I also found a spoiler for chapter 130! And it made me EEEEEEE! (It's Kyo and Kyo/Tohru centric).

In chapter 130, we discover that Akito has released all the Jyuuinshi from the curse (w00t!). Kyou and Tohru are the first to realize this when they hug (for a completely different reason) and, WOW, Kyou doesn't change!! So Kyou backs away from Tohru and proceeds to stare at the beads on his wrist. Then in a totally awesome scene, he rips the bracelet from his wrist and sends the beads flying. It's a really powerful moment. The beads fall on the ground, Tohru starts crying with joy because Kyou isn't transforming, and Kyou allows himself hope. The chapter ends with the two of them hugging.

Date: 2007-03-01 09:27 pm (UTC)bizarre is how bittersweet the curse ending is for everyone except Kyo.
You are right, I guess it's just something that they are used to (and I can see why Kyo is exempt from duality and is just joyful to be rid of it).
Unless it was punishment because, out of all the animals, he was the only "against his will" participant
I guess that's what it is. Ugh. Nasty sort of thing to deal with.
