1. Episode 12 Preview & Speculation
We didn’t see Yuki anywhere in Episode 11. My theory is that he was with Machi all this while. It will be exciting to see his reaction to the breaking of the curse in the next episode.
Also, Arisa must’ve expressed his feelings to Kureno by now. From what we saw in episode 11, some more relationships are building that involve Sohma family members.
Akito was seen leaving the house as she decided to be free. However, she just can’t have people hate her. Either Tohru or Akito herself might talk to the cursed members shortly.
Many fans are also curious about where Akito will go and what she will do. Well, these are all the questions to be answered in the next episode.

3. Episode 11 Recap
As Kyo comes towards Tohru, she cannot stop crying. A part of her wants Kyo to confess his feelings right now, while the other asks for some more time before she gets ready.
Kyo holds her hands and says that he wants to live with her forever. He proposes to her and says that he loves her.
After listening to this, Tohru cannot hold back her tears. It feels like a dream to her. The next moment, Kyo wipes her tears and kisses her on the lips. He apologizes to her for his weird cursed body. However, Tohru interrupts and says that her love for him is invincible.
As Tohru looks at Kyo with sparkling eyes filled with love for him, he gently hugs her. Suddenly, the love birds realize that Kyo is released from the curse, as Kyo’s body did not change into a cat.
Later, Akito recalls back when she explained to Tohru why she was always jealous of her. As she called her pretty and pure, Tohru politely asked her to stop categorizing people on such a basis and asked her to keep being friends.
The episode goes back in time and narrates the original story of 12 Zodiac signs. A long time back, a god was living on top of a remote mountain. Once a cat approached her and asked to let her stay by her side.
As time passed, the god noticed that the cat was true to her words. She realized that she could be friends with all such creatures that are different from human beings. So, she sent many invitations for the banquet, out of which only 12 animals showed up.
Since that day, the god and the 13 animals had a banquet every moonlit night, until one night, the cat collapsed. The god chanted a spell and made the bonds between them eternal.
They all promised to be friends for eternity. Consequently, the cat woke up and said that she doesn’t want eternity.
The god and other animals mistook it for rejection and eventually rebuked her. The cat said she wants to meet the god someday in another birth and died soon after.
Soon, the other animals and the god followed the cat on the other side of the world. But none of them remembered the promise they made.
Back in the present, Akito decides to stop being the ‘god’ and start her life being herself. As Akito leaves, every member of the Sohma family feels lonely and sad. On the other hand, Ayame also confesses his feelings to his Mine.
Akito decides to go her way and says goodbye to everyone. As this happens, Kyo realizes that his curse broke. Everyone else in the Sohma family also gets released from the curse. In the end, we see an addition to the most cherished belongings of Tohru, Juzu beads of Kyo’s bracelet.
