  1. With seven episodes here, I was surprised to see handbags replica as many extras as I did. In addition to another round of the character profiles, the textless opening song gets another play through here. The Fruits Basket Room No. 2 is the main extra gucci replica through, with Tohru?s voice actress this time interviewing Kyo?s voice actor. The two are most appropriately silly throughout most of it and it?s very infectious, with a running time of about fifteen minutes or so. There?s also another Eye-catch gallery here that?s setup much like the previous volume and chanel replica that covers episodes 13 through twenty six and runs for about fifteen minutes.
