Story Synopsis
Tohru Honda was living in a tent on the Sohma property due to remodeling on her gradfather's house. After being found out by Yuki and Shigure, the two allowed her to come and live in their house until remodeling was complete. As she was shown around her new bedroom, Kyo bashed through the ceiling, wanting to fight Yuki. Afraid that he might actually hurt Yuki, Tohru tried to stop him, slipping on a piece of wood and hugging him in the process. When all the chaos and smoke cleared away, Tohru was staring at an angry cat.
She soon found out that the Sohma family is under a cruel curse. Select members of the family are cursed by the Chinese zodiac spirits and because of that they can't be hugged by members of the opposite sex outside of the zodiac or else they'll transform. Knowing she may never be able to heal the wounds in their hearts, Tohru begins to live normally with them; changing the lives of the Sohma forever.
