Furuba
Several people have said that they would like me to put some information on Furuba, so here's a start.

Furuba, better known as Fruits Basket, is an anime that has just come to America. It follows a girl named Tohru Honda.

On her way to school, Tohru passes a house where several little painted figures of the 12 animals of the zodiac. There she meets a man named Shigure Sohma...

... who had apparently made the little figurines. While she chats with 'Gure, 'Gure's cousin, a boy named Yuki Sohma (who happens to be the "prince" of Tohru's high school) comes out.

Later that night, Shigure and Yuki discover that Tohru has been living in a tent, and when she collapses from a fever, they bring her back to Shigure's house, to tend to her. The next morning, Shigure and Yuki talk Tohru into staying at their house until she can move back in to her house. Later that morning, as Yuki is airing out Tohru's temporary room a redheaded boy...

comes down through the roof and challenges Yuki to a fight. Just as the redhead is about to hit Yuki, Tohru runs forward and tries to stop him, but she slips and lands on top of him. The next thing Tphru knows, she is holding an orange cat. the shock causes her to faint, as she does, she falls into Shigure and Yuki and they turn into a rat and a dog. Soon shigure, who can talk as a dog, explains to Tohru that the Sohma family has been under a curse for generations. The curse is, that whenever a mwmber of the cursed Sohmas is hugged by a member of the opposite sex, of their body comes under a great deal of stress, they turn into the twelve animals of the zodiac and the cat. Tohru is introduced to the redheaded cat who is named Kyo, and.... well, I'll continue later. hope the summaries not too bad. I'll give more info later.
