Shigure Sohma


This Fruits Basket character is one of the twelve cursed members of the Sohma clan, as well as one of the oldest cursed members. Easy-going and laid-back, Shigure has a carefree sense of humor, but can sometimes be a little perverted. He owns the house that he, Yuki, Kyo and Tohru live in, and works as as novelist. When embraced by someone of the opposite sex, the curse transforms Shigure into the dog of the Chinese zodiac.

Favorite quotes:

You were born in the year of the dog. I knew there was something I liked about you.

Those woods aren't too safe. You've got wild animals, landslides...the occasional weirdo prowling around...it's not a good idea for a girl to be living out there alone.

I guess you could say...it's instinct.

It's too late for excuses. We might as well tell her the truth. Tohru? I'm a dog. Yuki here, he's a rat. That's Kyo. Don't let his temper scare you. He's got a bit of a chip on his shoulder. Our family has lived with this curse for generations. We transform into the twelve animals of the Chinese zodiac. ...Sorry - twelve animals, plus the cat. Anyways, whenever our bodies come under a great deal of stress, or...when we're hugged by a member of the opposite sex, we transform. After a little while...we change back...the only thing is, uh... we're naked.

Tohru, didn't you say you used to wish you could be a cat? What's it like seeing the real thing? Yes, it's hard to believe, I know! And I agree, the phrase "cat-like reflexes" doesn't really apply to him, the way he let you fall on him like that. But he is a cat, all be it clumsier than most. Surprising really, considering the amount of martial arts training he's had. I'm sure he'd tell you the same thing himself if he wasn't so busy brooding like a child! - About Kyo

I'm home! Yuki! Tohru! Are you here? And Kyo...! I hope you're not doing something stupid, and tearing up my house again!!

My point, is it takes just as much training to get along with people, only training by yourself in the mountains won't do you any good. You need to surround yourself with others. As you get to know them, of course you take a chance that you'll end up hurting them, or they'll end up hurting you. And one of those things might very well happen. But that's the only way we learn about others, and about ourselves.

Sometimes it feels like the whole world is conspiring to destroy my house.

Am I brave enough to go look for Kyo just yet? Umm....No.

That's lovely. She's so...how shall I say it? By putting it into words I'm afraid the nobility of it all would be obscured. You know, she's so spunky!

Lovely, they smashed the house again.

Perhaps I should go in search of quiet inspiration.

High school girls! 1, 2, 3! High School Girls! All for me!

Yuki... try not to destroy the house. OK?

We've just witnessed a classic example of what I like to call misdirected rage. I believe the technical term is "being an ass".
