Kyou Souma
草摩夾
Kyo Soma is the cursed cat of the Soma family in Fruits Basket. Rejected by his family for being the cat, he is hot-headed but develops a deep bond with Tohru.
Overview
Kyo Sohma is the male lead of Fruits Basket and the Sohma family member cursed by the spirit of the cat, the animal cheated out of a place in the Chinese zodiac. Ostracized by the family and destined to be confined for life, he grows up hot-headed and resentful of the rat, Yuki Sohma.
Kyo trains in martial arts under his adoptive father Kazuma Sohma and transfers to Tohru Honda's school, gradually opening up to her. His true form, revealed when his bracelet is removed, and his connection to Tohru's late mother Kyoko are among the manga's biggest emotional beats.
His journey from self-hatred to acceptance and his love for Tohru made him the most popular character of the series. He is voiced by Yuma Uchida in Japanese and Jerry Jewell in English in the 2019 adaptation.
