Shiki is perceptive, as he can read situations and come to a solution quite well. While he is genuine with everything he does, is honest, and has no problem telling people what is on his mind, he can be rather awkward while trying to express himself and his emotions. However, Shiki does show a smile from time to time and does occasionally blush when he is in Sawa's presence. For example, when he found out that Sawa would come to the Sohma cottage with the rest of his relatives and him, Shiki dropped a bucket of Go pieces while still holding a completely poker-faced expression. He usually keeps a level-headed demeanor and a natural facial expression, and even when he is startled or surprised, he manages to hide his reactions quite well. Shiki is a quiet, shy, and frail boy who is a bit awkward when it comes to normal, everyday living. According to Sawa Mitoma, Shiki has an extremely pale complexion and is very beautiful. He has straight, black, and nape-length hair with long bangs that frame his face and covers most of his forehead, and a pair of droopy black eyes. Shiki is a young boy with an average build and a rather tall height, who is noted to be near-identical to his mother including inheriting her face- and eye shape. Despite that, with the help of his loving parents, family, and friends, Shiki is determined to overturn the notion that nothing can ever change, in regards to his mother's situation, and wants to become the next head of the family after his mother to reinforce this dedication.Įventually, after secrets are revealed and confrontations are resolved, Shiki develops a budding romance with Sawa Mitoma, who he has always thought about ever since he was very young. Being the son of Akito, who was a source of suffering and pain within the Sohma family in the past, Shiki was made a target by his grandmother Ren Sohma and her side of the family. He is a first-year middle school student who is in the Go Club along with his friends Chizuru Sohma and Rio Mosca. He is the son and only child of Akito and Shigure Sohma.

Shiki Sohma ( 草摩志岐, Sōma Shiki) is one of the recurring characters of the Fruits Basket Another series, and the main protagonist of its one-shot. I have to make myself into that kind of person… or I won't be able to protect this tenderness. If you insist that it's 'eternity', that nothing can ever change, then I'll take those ideas… and I'll overturn them.
