Takaya Natsuki - Fruits Basket, vol. 23 (Eng. trans.)
Tue, Jul. 21st, 2009 11:46 amOh, I cannot believe it is over (even though I know it has been over for two years now)!
First, I've extremely grumpy at TokyoPop for the lousy quality of the final volume. The paper for the cover and the pages are much flimsier compared even to volume 22. Yes, there's a nice color insert, which I appreciated, but seriously! I shouldn't feel like I can tear the pages by accident when I'm turning them.
But overall, this is a lovely grace note to the series. There isn't much plot movement; mostly it's tying up loose ends and giving the characters a proper send off.
( Spoilers pile on the years )
I love this series so.
