Fruits Basket or Fruits Basket: Brotherhood? Or both? I recomend watching them side by side so you can appreciate both takes. Series 1 matches the art at the beginning of the manga while the new one matches the art towards the end.

CancerAkito seems only able to spend time with Tohru at New Years, when the Sohma estate celebrates; given she willingly stays away from the former Zodiacs (which would include Kyo). Her star sign is the Cancer.
Akito, for most of the story, is abusive and cruel to all The Chinese Zodiac, as she is the God. She rarely shows any sympathy and is extremely misogynistic, showing little to no trust or respect for other women. This is evident through her behaviour towards Kana, Tohru, Rin, and her mother, Ren.
Tohru Honda was orphaned right before starting high school, losing her mother's life in a tragic traffic accident. Living by herself in a tent in a light forest near her school, she one day stumbled upon the sprawling estate of the secretive Sohma family.
Season 2 of Fruits Basket ended with two major reveals. The first is that not only is the zodiac curse breakable, but it's already been broken in the case of Kureno, formerly the rooster. Kureno might be free of the curse, but he's also by far the least free of Akito's control compared to his increasingly confident and independent cousins.
Fruits Basket 's third and final season is now streaming on FUNimation and Crunchyroll.
A promotional image was revealed on January 29 for Fruits Basket the Final. It shows Tohru and Akito standing back to back.

A few days after Tohru meeting Akito, Yuki's older brother Ayame Sohma, the Snake of the zodiac, visits the house, much to Yuki's displeasure. Ayame takes an instant liking to Tohru and rushes her to a gyoza restaurant for lunch. He confides in her that the brothers are not close for years partly due to Yuki's childhood isolation and wishes to reconcile with Yuki, particularly after hearing Akito confronting Yuki at school and is concerned it would depress him. Tohru comforts him that her mother only learned about a parent's worries when she became a parent herself but never forgotten the memories of being a child. Although Ayame is unsuccessful in getting closer with Yuki, he does not leave Shigure's house until the afternoon next day, when Hatori arrives to take him back at Hatsuharu's request.
