Ah it is me Animefan204 on the board right Fruits Basket is a really good anime it is very close to the manga anyway the story;
One day, Tohru comes upon a house in the woods which is the home of Shigure Sohma and Yuki Sohma from the Sohma family. When they discover that Tohru is living in a tent in the woods, they are quite surprised. The entire area is Sohma property. The Sohmas offer her their spare room in exchange for cooking and housework. When her tent is buried that night in a landslide, she has no option but to accept.

(suprise suprise)
Tohru soon discovers the Sohma family's secret, and the reason why Yuki is so private. The Shoma family transform into animals when hugged by the opposite gender, or when they are under great amounts of stress!!

When she promises to keep their secret, the Sohmas allow Tohru to keep her memories rather than erasing them, a fate of everyone who had found out from outside the Sohma family.
