[yawnwhatyadoing]

kakeru manabe sketch

i started this like early last month and never got back too it. it was also originally supposed to be yuki but i was struggling. so i decoded to draw my fav manabe <3. anyways hope yall like it as much as i do!

[festivalofthe12]

ACTUALLY do you know what seriously gets me when I think about it

Kakeru, right

While he was at high school, canonically, he:

was vice president of the student council

maintained STELLAR grades to continue to remain part of said council

had a girlfriend (who goes to a different school so like they needed to make an actual EFFORT to see one another)

AND worked a part-time job

and the guy STILL had enough time in his day to goof off and do gay shit with Yuki and give his best friend his queer awakening!!!!

Like??? Tohru I love you but this is the real straight-up-magic impossible achievement borne of will and love right here. This guy should have been dead on his feet 24/7 and yet he just kept chuggin, huh. How did he do that????

[pendinganchor]

not sure anyone cares but i literally started crying when you are in love came on cause my brain started thinking about yuki and kakeru

Most recently, Manabe Kakeru from Fruits Basket:

Do you ever just… favorite-character-at-first-sight? Like, they walk on screen and say ONE WORD and immediately you’re just smitten.

“That one. That’s the one. I don’t know who they are yet but they’re my fave.”

I'm rereading Fruits Basket and I love the relationship between Kakeru and Yuki. It's kinda funny that his best friend is a mix of Kyo and Ayame, the two people he can't stand 😂😂😂

please read my fruits basket fic about yuki and manabe acting gay at a halloween party

Haru is not in the line up because I had just recently drew him so he already had his spotlight (okno actually Haru and Hiro both were in the lineup right beside Kakeru but I got tired so I didnt get to finish them on time 😅)

Anyway, in my head, their age and heights (in the future) are as follows:

21 Momiji: 177cm

22 Kyo: 182cm

23 Yuki: 179cm

23 Kakeru: 181cm

22 Haru: 183cm

17 Hiro: 176cm (and still growing)

//this is in no way canon, but Yuki is slightly shorter than Kyo, Kakeru and Haru in the manga)

Also, as working professionals, Momiji being the heir apparent to a family business, so he is currently working alongside his dad. Kyo, a dojo instructor and a personal trainer (so I made him bigger than the rest to accomodate that profession, also because I want to lol), Yuki, a lawyer because he's as snarky as he is cunning, and Kakeru, a pilot i guess. 🤣

Haru would be a jewellery and goth/rock/punk shop owner, most probably a frequent collaborator with Ayame. And Hiro, a student.

I drew them based on a fanfiction I am currently writing so whatever you read here is, again, all headcanon 🤣

I wish we had been given more of their afterschool life but since we didn't, I shall just make my own.

kakeru manabe my beloved

My favorite ship from Fruits Basket, nothing you say will change my mind about the fact they are in fact in love.
