Is it true that the reason fruba fanarts are so rare is coz the mangaka doesn't like it?
>> Anonymous

Yes. In fact the reason she turned Akito female was because so many fans paired him with Yuki. Anyone who has followed the manga closely can plainly see it was a last minute decision made in a fit. She literally had a meltdown and went all Anne Rice over fanworks.
>> Anonymous
>>1024476
Actually, she never done any yaoi pairings before and is unlikely to do so. Thus akito being male from the beginning is unlikely since they were many hints (sometimes even obvious ones) that Shigure is in love with Akito (creepy staring, watching her sleep, caressing). If Akito was a man then it would be an obvious yaoi pairing. Also Akito being a woman explains a lot of her psychology and misogyny which she demonstrates from the beginning. Also in the japanese manga Akito was never referred as "he" but as "that person". Only Akito refers to herself as a male.

Where do you fangirls get this bullshit? A person writes a heterosexual pairing and suddenly it's a horrible conspiracy? You want men fucking men, then go read a BL manga.
>> Anonymous

The pairing has absolutely nothing to do with it. It is true that the mangaka had a breakdown over fanworks and non-canon pairings. Most people in the fandom agree that this is the moment furuba jumped the shark. Maybe she wasn't purposefully being spiteful, but it sure as hell seemed like she did her damnedest to spit in the faces of her fans over both hetero and yaoi fan art and fiction. The Akito thing is only a small fraction of it.

If Akito wasn't a woman the plot wouldn't make sense and Akito is the main antagonist of the plot and therefore a very important character whose behavior and actions are done out of her hatred of the women who 'take away everything she owns'. I am positive that Akito was meant to be female from the beginning. If she was male then Akito is obviously gay (she clings to the male characters and caressing etc..) which is definitely not the author's intention.

Author's intention =/= necessarily good.
Also for crying out loud, if people would bitch less and enjoy more, this fandom would actually get somewhere. Take your manga version, take your anime version, take the fanon version, and just ENJOY it, because whatever it is, it's built on the foundation of people who turn to cuddly animals who then turn back into naked, attractive people, and all it takes is a little touching - a winner premise at least compared to some of the stuff that's out there, these days. Also, on sadness, angst, loneliness, and a few other things that make less interesting stories praiseworthy.

Akito is NOT the reason people complain about the mangaka and how she shat up her own manga. Even homophobic yaoi-hating fans of this series express the same opinions of the mangaka and also believe there is a severe decline in quality after she went apeshit. Akito's gender is a total non-issue.

Chill dude, I seriously doubt they mean meltdown as in a clinical nervous breakdown, but it is no secret that she flipped out and banned all fanworks like Anne Rice did. Japanese artists are afraid to try. Either that or the sites are hidden, so as a result we barely see any fanart of fanfics by anyone other than 10-14 year old Americans.

I hardly think it's our fault that she decides to come up with almost a dozen guys in a single manga, then goes nuts when we slash them seven ways to sunday.
I'm still not exactly sure what the whole story is, but it's ridiculous that she's gunna wanna stop the entire flow of fanart. It was always gunna happen, and it will continue as long as we want it to.

The art is different partly because she broke her hand and had to get surgery, it also changed because she wanted to make her characters mature a little since unlike most mangakas she actually makes her character look like they age as time pass. As for Akito changing most fans (after reviewing the manga again from the beginning) noticed they were many hints of Akito's gender from the beginning and agreed that she was meant to be female. Like how similar she was to Yuki (who was considered feminine) and how small she was compared to other male somas (Is weird for a 19 year old male to be 5 feet 3 and weigh about 94 pounds). And even thought she was similar to Yuki, Yuki changed (got taller, stronger) and she stayed the same.

she doesn't mind shonen ai unless it turns into hardcore yaoi. I think what happened is that she was disturbed and shocked by seeing rape doujinshis of her characters (mostly in the yaoi ones) involving Momiji and stuff. If i was her i would just ignored it, but she didn't.

Dear Troll,

This FB thread is already wanky enough without your assistance. As you can see, people are incapable of enjoying the series without falling into a pointless, unpleasant debate that never, ever yields results. It's already *enough* that people who wants to get SOME fun out of FB have to put up with any such efforts drowning in an onslaught of self-sabotaging ranting to have you come in and throw wood into the fire. I'm sure your services are needed elsewhere.

Thank you. Have a nice day.

But there was a large amount of fandom, I used to have hundreds of pictures then a virus came and killed my computer. So i went back to find the artwork again and most websites were dead after the manga ended. The only websites that are still up today are the ones from the Akito fanboys (she tends to be the most memorable character and complex).

At least I'm not the only one who thought the Akito thing was a cop-out, but so many other people say there were hints at it in the beginning, we're probably wrong.

Akito aside though, the manga started going downhill once things started focusing more and more about the new student council faggots.

Every character in the manga has one of two issues:

A. Parents abusive in some way
B. Parents great but traumatized by peers

It got really old after a while and I stopped caring about the characters.

The fact remains, however, that a lot of the characters are delicious /cm/ fodder.

I can't imagine a Japanese mangaka NOT considering the fact that his/her characters are going to be slashed every which way till Sunday and rule 34'd leik whut, though.

And the art of the manga is horrendous, while the original manga's story is still anything but mediocre at best. Face it, all this series had going for it was the gay tension. That mangaka made such a huge mistake throwing a tantrum over the yaoi. She should have realized you're at the peak of your career when people are spending countless hours of their time drawing and writing porn of your characters. She effectively dismantled her own fandom.

Which is why you rarely, if ever, see threads for this series in /cm/ or /y/.

Stop making assumptions and throwing around accusations. If you had actually read the post, you'd see nothing about hating Fruits Basket because the mangaka ruined a yaoi pairing. To do so would be absolutely asinine, seeing as how very few yaoi pairings ever see any canon action.

My turn for an assumption: you're new here, aren't you?

I just pointing out the obvious, you are throwing a tantrum because of the lack of yaoi art, is safe to assume that you are butthurt over it.
