Fruits Basket -prelude- Ratings & Reviews
BubbleBlabber
Daniel Kurland
Fruits Basket: Prelude is a beautiful story about the importance of getting out of your own way and letting yourself be happy; that humans require the company of others and can't hide away from the world, even when it feels impossible to do otherwise.
It's The Pictures
Max Covill
Fruits Basket Prelude is only for die-hard fans who've already completed the story. Everyone else can look elsewhere.
FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)
Charles Solomon
There are enough tears flowing to fill the Great Salt Lake... Plenty of heartrending confessions if that's what keeps you going.
Aisle Seat
Mike McGranaghan
The recap needed to be shorter and the main story needed to be longer in order for the film to play well as a stand-alone feature, rather than as a supplement to the show.
Polygon
Petrana Radulovic
Prelude still has some traces of what makes Fruits Basket so compelling. But stripped of the magic - both literally and figuratively - it loses what makes it special.
The Mary Sue
Briana Lawrence
The story elements are all there for this movie, but the execution is the part where it fumbles the bag.
Geeks of Color

The film is sad... But it was also a story of love and rediscovering a love for those who are important to us.

Fruits Basket: Prelude fails to live up to high expectations as the film weighs itself down with too much exposition and lacks a clear focus.
JVS Media & Productions/Team JVS
Samuel Leggett Jr.
Fruits Basket: Prelude has some amazing emotional depth. You applaud the amazing looking animation and environmental design of the world built. Each character you feel has deep history, but if you haven't seen the series you may come up a bit lost.
Asian Movie Pulse
Panos Kotzathanasis
Despite the fact that the prologue will be confusing to viewers who have not seen the original series, the main segment here definitely compensates, offering entertainment and closing of loose ends in the most elaborate fashion.
But Why Tho? A Geek Community
Kate Sánchez
I want to love Fruits Basket Prelude because of how good Kyoko's story is. Her story taps into everything I love about the series, but to get to it only after a 30-minute recap of the series feels completely disjointed from the meat of the film…
