Well, I can definitely tell that they made that trailer themselves, but it looks great!

While I adore the series, this particular story was always one I felt a bit uncomfortable with and I was glad it was only really mentioned in the show or shown in quick flashbacks when it pertained specifically to Tohru's memories of the affect her parents' story had on her.
I guess unlike the other major age gap romance in Fruits Basket where there at least seems to be some equal ground maturity-wise, it was pretty hard for me even way back when I was a preteen reading this to get behind a completely romanticized picture of the whole "teacher falls in love with his very troubled middle school student and marries her right after she drops out" story. Given how the 2019 show did update some other things from the show, I feel like it would have been a very easy story to do so (multiple ways they could have too) and still retain the major emotional beats but hey - I'm happy for fans who've been waiting for it since it's the last new release for Fruits Basket.
