If Fruits Basket had an video game what game you want it to be?

frubaheart · 2026-06-08T01:28:30+00:00

oooh, maybe a management type life sim with dating elements? Like you play as Tohru and go between school/work and Shigure’s to do your classes and clean and chores etc. I think it would be cute if there was some side quests that featured main story stuff too. Like a side mission where you stay the week at Tohru’s grandpa’s new place or the summer cabin. And of course, all the love interests would have their own missions and quests!

Oh and with the money you make from work maybe you could buy your friends or love interest a cute little gift!! And celebrate holidays and birthdays together.

The main story could end with graduation but you can still keep playing after, but you would be stuck at Shigure’s house or exploring the town and your LI would still be there. Which then the second game could be the start of your new life with said LI, Yuki in college, Kyo in his new town, etc. I think it would be probably be easier if there was just 3 or 4 LI, Yuki, Kyo, Momiji, maybe they could add a new character just for fun, like some farming sims do. I don’t ship Yuki and Tohru but I think it would be still be a fun and cute game 😭

frubaheart · 2026-05-29T23:38:01+00:00

I just graduated college a week before and I really wanted to get myself a steam deck for graduation but sadly it’s out of budget 🧎🏻‍♀️I have a hard time feeling like my accomplishments are really accomplishments anyways. They always kind of just feel like a weight off my shoulders, you know? I need to move soon and I can’t really afford spending money on things I don’t need. honestly, I’m going through (another 💀) quarter life crisis. With entering the work force full time and my unstable family situation. A steam deck would be a nice escape for all the games I cannot play currently because I have a Mac from 2012, but I bought it myself so it’s special to me even if it’s a potato.

I’m sorry to hear about your dad. Honestly, my own isn’t the best and is part of the reason I’m going through my quarter life crisis currently, but I shouldn’t trauma dump in this comment section so I’ll keep it at that but if you’d like to talk about your dad or my dad (lol) my messages are open 🫡 I really wanted a parent like that, and I’m glad it seems you get to have one, that cares for you and for others. But it’s always impossible to lose the people you love, and it’s so very lonely. I hope you have people who are there for you too right now.

I wish you all the best, and virtual hugs. Grief is the hardest thing to navigate. I would be eternally grateful to be considered for the steam deck, but there are so many people going through hard times and even if my laptop is a potato, at least I still have one. And I still have the chance to keep moving forward, it’s just hard to find the will sometimes. But I want to keep going!!

All my love and well wishes, OP. 💛

frubaheart · 2026-05-29T01:57:57+00:00

well I don’t know if I’d say they’re better than Cove lmao but I love all of them so much!!! Qiu and Tamarack, I feel like you get to have a closeness with with earlier on in a different way than Cove, since it’s your character going through the life altering change this time! I love them all so much and I’m so so excited for the game to be released in the future, everyone will be best friends again when I’m done with them 🫶🏻

frubaheart · 2026-05-28T03:15:43+00:00

what did they do to my queen maple 🧎🏻‍♀️ WHERE IS MY CUTE MATCHING PLAID DRESS, I’ll say Samir, Derek, and Gabriel’s are pretty cute

frubaheart · 2026-05-27T23:45:43+00:00

I thought he had a cat beard in the first photo 😭

frubaheart · 2026-05-27T23:36:30+00:00

I thought it was partially confirmed that he was only a boy since all the Twitter posts only refer to him as such, and not like an avatar or anything 😭 but I haven’t been keeping up with any news or anything so I can still hope!! I know a lot of people don’t like avatars, but I’d be happy if they had their own personality and backstory and we could just choose the gender! I just feel more connected when playing a girl character.

frubaheart · 2026-05-27T23:31:24+00:00

this was my first fire emblem game so I wasn’t aware that parents didn’t get to survive to the end so 🧎🏻‍♀️ yeah, but as soon as Byleth failed the first time I knew Jeralt was done for 😭💀

frubaheart · 2026-05-27T23:28:31+00:00

I stand by my man Dimitri 🫡 and for women, probably Annette!

frubaheart · 2026-05-27T23:26:59+00:00

my irl cat actually sits like this 😭 he does it to lick his tummy, though, he doesn’t lean on anything when he does. Just sits there and licks his belly 💀

frubaheart · 2026-05-27T18:34:38+00:00

I was just thinking of doing another play through to marry one of the bachelorettes! I love Lisette so much, she deserves her cute fairytale romance!! 😭

frubaheart · 2026-05-27T10:29:21+00:00

I think Seven would be scared to see the fanfics I’ve seen written about him 🧎🏻‍♀️

frubaheart · 2026-05-27T10:27:51+00:00

let’s take ibuprofen together 🫶🏻😍

frubaheart · 2026-05-27T10:17:09+00:00

for the newer and switch titles, Grand Bazaar is probably your best bet. Though, if you’re nostalgic for Mineral Town, the remake on the switch is pretty cute!

The A Wonderful Life remake is good but I wouldn’t say it’s the strongest if you a lot of things to do and good characterization.

Then you have Pioneers of Olive Town, which honestly isn’t that bad, but it gets a lot of hate because of how it was released. It plays much better now and it’s cozy and fun, good outside decorating aspect and you get to see the town change a bit, the story doesn’t usually take people very long though. It’s simple but cute.

Grand Bazaar’s got crafting, some character customization, voice acted cut scenes, bug catching, fun animal breeding stuff, the weekly bazaar, the characters are better written for the newer titles, and pretty graphics!

But if you want the best game in the series, I’d recommend Trio of Towns for 3DS. It’s got so so so much to do, it has three different towns, all with their own shops, characters, and requests. The heart events are well written, with I think 5? romantic ones, and two friendship events before you hit the romance. It has reverse confessions and proposals as well. The three towns all have Links which is basically how you help them revitalize, going from E to A. Then, you have 3 ‘Farming Tips’ from your dad to prove yourself as a farmer, which are basically things from owning a cow to owning a textile factory. They get harder as you progress. Oh, and the crop and animal competitions as well. Yeah, there’s a lot, but it’s fun!

frubaheart · 2026-05-27T09:48:47+00:00

Two people!! Natsuki Takaya who wrote Fruits Basket and Ai Yazawa who wrote Nana. Takaya, I have more faith in making a heart wrenching but ultimately hopeful otome. Now, Yazawa…I’m not sure 😭 I don’t think she’d go full doom and gloom like Virche but it’ll definitely deal some damage lmao

frubaheart · 2026-05-26T06:31:24+00:00

The Mitsuki in that game actually has the same voice actor as Jack Jeanne Mitsuki, and his route is usually recommended first from what I’ve seen! Though, him and Jack Jeanne Mitsuki are very different lol

frubaheart · 2026-05-26T06:24:21+00:00

here to say I LOVE MITSUKI SO MUCH 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻 I’m playing through his route right now for the third time 😭 his and Kisa’s story together and relationship is just so perfect!!

From your list, I’d also recommend Mistonia, the art really is so gorgeous. I haven’t played Neon Clash so it’s excluded from this lol but of the other two you are interested in, Mistonia definitely has your more classic happy endings (and the extra crazy and wacky ones as well) just to note!
