Story Overview
Kyo Sohma and Hatsuharu Sohma have been shown to read the manga adaption of the series. Machi Kuragi and Kisa Sohma are huge fans of the series, while Hiro Sohma, Kagura Sohma, and Tohru Honda enjoys it very much as well. Akito Sohma is also mentioned to be a fan of Ari since she wanted to purchase an Ari plush doll. Yuki Sohma doesn't seem to be fond of the Mogeta franchise at all, and has stated that there is a problem with the anime itself.

Kyo, Tohru, Kagura, and Yuki were seen going to see the Mogeta movie on a double date, in which Tohru and Kagura cried afterward since it was so emotional. Kyo and Yuki, however, seems to not show much of an interest in the show. Kisa, Tohru, Hiro, and Yuki watched it when they were at Shigure's house as well. During Kaibara Municipal High School's school festival, a person dressed up as Mogeta was seen, which Kisa and Hiro quietly interrogated. Yuki gives Machi two Mogeta figurines on two different occasions; firstly a small one as an apology for making her follow him to Ayame Sohma's shop, since he had a Mogeta figurine laying around in his shop; and secondly a rare, limited-edition one during their "date".

In Fruits Basket Another, Machi's son Mutsuki Sohma is shown to enjoy the Mogeta series, as he owned several Mogeta figurines as a child, and has a Mogeta keychain as a teenager.
