Shigure Sohma: So anyway I was wondering if you could stop by the house and take a look at Tohru’s cut. That is if it isn’t a problem.Hatori Sohma: No problem. I’ll stop by the...

I think that nationality has no relation to that which gives rise to manga. Even among the Japanese, manga creators are making their creations everyday reflecting their own individuality, with none being the same. What...

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...

Those who hurt others will also hurt themselves.

That’s why I won’t give up! I’ll continue to move forward because I believe!

OY! Stop playing around and lets cook already!”*smack*J-just now, that made a really loud noise..”Do you wanna hear it again?”N-no, you’ll just hit me again!”Kyo and Tohru

Above and beyond drawing my creations, I try to incorporate some kind of message. I try not to end as merely a question but try to provide a conclusion within the work.

Yuki: “What can I learn from a stupid cat like you? You didn’t even know that Jason isn’t really a bear. He’s a character in a horror film.”Kyo: “Yeah? So what if I didn’t? Like...

…you must always be yourself, and do things at your own pace. Someday, you’ll catch up.

Strangely enough, when you get older the things you didn’t understand when you were a child start to make sense. “When this happened, I should have done that.” “When that happened, I should have said...

[Kagura is doing laundry and tries to wring out Kyou’s shirt causing it to rip in two ]Kyo Sohma: Tell me what I think just happened didn’t just happen Kagura: My love !Kyo Sohma: My...

As a child, because manga was always around and I was reading it, I naturally thought, ‘Hey, I’d like to draw manga – I’d like to be a manga author!’

We’re all born with selfish desires, so we can all relate to those feelings in others. But kindness is something made individually by each person…so it’s easy to misunderstand when others are trying to be...

I wish I could’ve lived my life without making any wrong turns. But that’s impossible. A path like that doesn’t exist. We fail. We trip. We get lost. We make mistakes. And little by little,...

To forgive or not to forgive… are those my only choices?

Kyo Sohma: One of these days I’ll make you say you’re sorry Yuki Sohma: looking bored I’m sorry. Kyo Sohma: Dammit That’s not what I meant Don’t you have any shame Yuki Sohma: still looking...

I’m the sort of person that doesn’t really have specific ‘inspiration.’ It probably comes more from my doubts and my desires.

Shigure: JUST LISTEN TO ME FOR A SECOND, KYO!Kyo: SHUT UP! I HATE THIS! DO YOU REALLY GET THAT MUCH ENJOYMENT FROM PLAYING WITH PEOPLES’ LIVES?!Shigure: Well, yes, now that you mention it, I do–BUT...

My happiness comes from the kindness of those around me.

Partings are the beginnings of new meetings.Beginnings happen because there are endings.

Shigure: “Lemme guess; you lost your temper and yelled at her again, right? You know, you shouldn’t do that if you’re just going to regret it. Not too bright, now is it?”Kyo: “Save your breath....

Kyo Sohma: angrily pointing at Yuki Just like I’ll beat you one of these days Yuki: looking bored Wait wait I think I’ve heard this one before

Simply put, I’m glad that manga as an expressive form is expanding.

Kyo: Of course, I’ll beat YOU, too!Yuki: Don’t you ever get tired of saying that?Kyo: Beating you is my vocation! It’s my goal in life!Yuki: It’s so unfair that I keep having to take abuse...

Just tell me what’s so irritating.”(katsu)That’s none of your damn business!”(kyok)Maybe not. But I’m curious.”(katsu)It’s EVERYTHING you prick! God, you’re annoying! It’s everything,okay?! EVERYTHING PISSES ME OFF! Them! And them! And them! And YOU! Everyone...

I love the stars.Because they can’t say anything.I love the stars.Because they do not judge anyone.

If you want to stop me you’re going to have to came at me like your going to kill me.” -Hatsuharu

People aren’t born social. Sure it comes easier to some people but most people, like you, need to work at it. Some more than others. You’re just inexperienced.

Before and after my debut, I’ve helped out other manga artists from time to time, but I have no experience of being exclusively an assistant. Nor have I done individual or self-published manga.

We have just witnessed a classic example of what I like to call ‘misdirected rage’. I believe the technical term is being an ass.

I will take away your means of escape.

True kindness isn’t something we’re born with. It’s something we have to work at. Not everyone has it. But I think everyone has the potential. Sometimes you just have to look really close before you...

Tohru: “Call a doctor, or a vet, or something! Mr. Postman! It’s terrible! You see?! They’re animals!”Mailman: “Well, uh, yes, they certainly are. Here’s your mail.”Tohru: “No, no, we’ve got to do something!”(Shigure in dog...

I want to believe that memories, even sad and painful ones, should not be forgotten forever.

If someone talks trash, you can just trash them back. Clamming up in a corner makes the thing half your fault.””[…] There are people out there who get crushed by that logic.

When did you become a woman?”-HatoriHow dare you ask that after you have seen me naked so many times…”-YukiGASP! No it cant be! Yuki-kun, does that mean…” fan club girlsNO! He’s my doctor…”Yuki

There was a time I stopped talking, just like you. My reasons were a little bit different, but… I think the feelings of being ashamed of myself and hating myself… are the same. Here it...

I’m not sure why I’ve decided to do this. I’m not any stronger than I was, and nothing else has changed. But all the same, this time I’m not going to run away. It’s okay...

Ritsu: “I’m a complete failure. At everything I do, I’m absolutely worthless. I know this, and yet I continue to burden the human race with my presence. Every day I rob the world of valuable...

It’s not that I’ve suddenly become stronger or that something has changed. I’m still shaking. But… We don’t have to let those fears stop us. What’s most important is that we try to rise above...

Shigure: We have just witnessed a classic example of what I like to call ‘misdirected rage’. I believe the technical term is being an ass.

So let me get this straight. You were living in a tent in the woods, but now you’re living with Prince Charming and anger management boy? SERIOUSLY?!

I want to live my life, carrying my memories with me. Even if those memories are painful, even if those memories do nothing but hurt me, even if I wish I could forget those memories…...

I want to believe that I’m not wrong. I want to believe that life isn’t full of darkness. Even if storms come to pass, the sun will shine again. No matter how painful and hard...

Shigure: “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 only be obscured.”Yuki: “Of what?”Shigure: “You know, she’s so spunky!”Kyo: “You sick...

If everything you say gets laughed at…then you become afraid of everyone… and are no longer able to speak… even knowing all that does is bother everyone… Your heart…….shuts down… And your words die….

Anyone who knows how scary it is to be alone, can’t help loving others.” ~Rin Sohma

Ayame: “Yuki, let’s deepen the bond between us brothers!”Yuki: “Before you can do that I’ll drown you in the deepest part of that lake.”Ayame: “As long as we spend time together.”Yuki: “On second thought, go...

I know that happy things and fun things eventually come to an end. But things that are scary and sad come to an end, too. They always do. Even if you can’t always believe that…please...

It’s lonely to say goodbye. Very lonely. Please. Cry with me. Maybe there’s nothing we can do about this. But at least, for now…cry with me. Like your entire body…is screaming at the sky. Like...
