Summary: from Good Reads
Yuki's past finally is revealed! But is it all too much to bear? His sickness takes a turn for the worse, and after Akito reminds Yuki how loathed he is, his will to live might finally be drained... Meanwhile, as Tohru is getting ready to perform in Cinderella, the class decides that they have to rewrite the play. But no amount of revision will prevent Tohru from improvising her loving feelings for a certain someone. Just who is the mystery man? A little bird tells us that the answer is right inside this next volume of the super-popular Fruits Basket, the world's #1 shojo manga!

Feelings:
I thought that the history with Yuki's past was very interesting and gives us a better idea of why the relationship between Yuki and Kyo is the way it is. I think the back story is what is really helping the current time's story remain interesting.

The school play, a sort of Cinderella story was interesting but I think the fact that the class didn't really want to do the play and the casting was off made it seem a bit forced and I didn't think it was nearly as good as it could have been.

There are parts of this that were stronger than others but overall the series is still very interesting.
