From Far Away Anime Announcement: Japanese Fans React — "I Wanted This Back in the Fruits Basket Era"
Kyoko Hikawa's 1990s shoujo classic From Far Away just dropped the teaser for its long-awaited anime adaptation, and Japanese fans who grew up with the manga flooded the comments with two decades of pent-up feelings. The recurring themes: nostalgia over the timing ("why not back in the Fruits Basket era"), and a genuinely heated debate over whether heroine Noriko's redesigned face lives up to Hikawa's original art — one that got specific enough to include a fight over a character's hands. By the end, the excitement mostly won out over the nitpicking.
