Tohru Honda

In the Fruits Basket anime series, Tohru Honda or Honda Tohru is the lead character. She attends Kaibara Municipal High School as a student. She is also the lone child of the late Kyoko and Katsuya Honda. Tohru’s upbeat optimism, sense of altruism, and deep empathy for others have earned her a strong reputation. She does, however, occasionally seem clumsy as well. She is also incredibly self-sufficient, as evidenced in the series when she accepts work as an office janitor to pay for her school dues and prevent being a dirty burden on her relatives.

She learns about the mysterious family curse after meeting Yuki, Kyo, and Shigure Somas, and she tries to do whatever she can in her power to save the Somas from destruction.

Tohru Honda was originally voiced by Yui Horie from the 2001 edition of Fruits Basket in the Japanese version of the anime series, but Manaka Iwami later took over the role for the 2019 update.

Tohru’s character is shown as being courteous, upbeat, incredibly nice, and altruistic. But she can also be pretty spacy at times. When she’s not concerned with something, she frequently daydreams and loses herself in her thoughts. She has endured a lot, from losing her mother when she was a teenager and her father when she was a young child to even living in a tent for a time while surrounded by bugs, yet she never loses her smile or her cheerful outlook.

Tohru has also never lost her stamina. She has a keen emotional intelligence, is often perceptive about people’s emotions, and occasionally displays wisdom in her words and action.
