Funimation licensed the 2019 remake anime for a simulcast in partnership with Crunchyroll and produced an English version as part of their simuldub program. Unlike the Japanese version, a good majority of the English dub's cast reprised their roles from the original anime. Funimation's English dub of the remake series began airing on ABC Me in Australia starting on June 19, 2020. Episode 19 was skipped in ABC Me's broadcast run, likely due to the episode's content.[18]

Shigure also has an angry Kyo transferred to Tohru and Yuki's school after the former had been training for four months instead of attending his previous school. The next day at school, Yuki is touched by Tohru's request that he remains to be a friend to her if her memory is to be erased, while Kyo's awkwardness around girls leads him to yell angrily at Tohru, sending her into a depression.

Yuki and Kyo are forced to come along but their input was made moot when the girls decided to get a pink swimsuit. While having soba for lunch, Arisa recalls how she first met Tohru in middle school. Back when she was still in a violent street gang, her idol was the Crimson Butterfly who had since become a mother and had a daughter who goes to the same school as Arisa. However she was shocked that the Butterfly's daughter turned out to be a plain, strange, spaced out girl, and Kyoko (the Crimson Butterfly) became a doting parent. It is at their home that Tohru first calls Arisa "Uo-chan" after Kyoko first suggested it. The love displayed between Tohru and Kyoko leads Arisa to be reminded of the neglect from her single father, and she rejected them both. The meeting and her past circumstances causes Arisa to break down as she realizes that she may become permanently stuck in her situation.

Continuing from the previous episode, Tohru saved Arisa from getting beaten by her fellow gang members and took her back to her house. Gradually embracing the loving environment that she never had, Arisa would spend more time with Tohru and Kyoko. Others around them, however, thought Arisa constantly bullied Tohru due to their contrasting personalities. One night, however, Arisa decided to quit the gang, and was saved from nearly being killed when Kyoko rescued her at Akimoto's (the lone gang member sympathetic to Arisa) request. Kyoko then explained her theory of life that there are feelings that she does not understand until she gets hurt and make trouble, and when she hits rock bottom, then she will understand, and finally, she needs gentleness to feel the pain and not let this be for nothing. Arisa emotionally declares wanting to become Tohru's best friend. From that point on, Arisa and Tohru became best friends, eventually reaching 8th grade and befriending Saki, and hung out with each other before Kyoko's untimely death. Back to the present, a group of female delinquents attempt to threaten Arisa and pick a fight with her, but Arisa then taught one of those delinquents that there are other ways to show off. As the sun sets, even though Kyoko died, her words, feelings, and Tohru herself nourished Arisa to grow. The episode ends with Arisa happily cooking food and scolding her father for drinking more alcohol, contrasting the non-existent relationship prior to meeting Tohru. In a post-credits scene, two of the female delinquents tried to imitate Arisa as new appreciation of her, much to the third delinquent's discomfort.

Kisa's situation also forcefully reminds Yuki of his own earlier suffering from Akito. Tohru soon finds Kisa and meets her mother. With Yuki eavesdropping out of sight, Tohru tells of her own experiences of being bullied and unable to tell anyone but felt relief when Kyoko found out and comforted Tohru. Kisa is moved by this and embraces Tohru after transforming back into a young girl. To allow time for both mother and daughter to heal, Kisa stays at Shigure's house for three days, never leaving Tohru's side but still mute. At school, Momiji believes that Kisa's bullying is due to her physical appearance as an effect of the Sohma curse. That afternoon after school, Hatsuharu brings a note from Kisa's homeroom teacher, stating that she needs to find the good in herself in order to recover and move on. Yuki disagrees, believing that one can recover only when someone else accepts them for who they are, referring to Tohru's acceptance of him. Kisa finally speaks in agreement, and resolves to better herself by returning to school. Yuki also resolves to move forward; unwilling to consider the offer earlier, he now accepts becoming the next student council president.

Shigure wants Ritsu to have some confidence and talk without panicking, though it didn't work when Yuki and Kyo returned, and when Tohru accidentally embraces Ritsu, she was shocked that Ritsu is a boy instead of a girl due to wearing a kimono. Ritsu then explains that ever since he wore Kagura's dress in the past, wearing girl's clothes makes him feel calmer. Then, Mitsuru rushes to Shigure's house for his manuscript, even after Shigure tricked her into going to a sushi restaurant. He then secretly tricks Ritsu into sending Mitsuru away, though Ritsu believes that she is a stalker to Shigure. But, when he sees her making a suicide note for not getting the manuscript from Shigure, Ritsu is starting to feel bad for her. Soon after, though, Shigure finally gives his manuscript to Mitsuru. The manuscript that was already done, however, is ruined when Ritsu accidentally spills a cup of coffee on it, forcing Mitsuru to pass out and he ran away to the rooftop. Believing that he caused trouble for the last time, Ritsu was about to commit suicide to avoid making further mistakes, especially when he remembers that his parents were apologizing because of his clumsiness. However, Tohru stops Ritsu and encourages him that even though no one is born with a reason to be alive, he can just find a reason to live, like the time Tohru found her reason to live, to become someone who can live for the sake of the others, and that he might meet with someone who wants to be with him. Feeling touched by her words, Ritsu agrees with her and he should live for someone else's sake. Later that night, after buying takoyaki while Shigure re-finishes his manuscript, Ritsu relates to Mitsuru about causing trouble for others and not having a reason to live, but after hearing his words about finding a reason to live for someone else, Mitsuru felt that she can keep going. Soon after, Ritsu and Mitsuru became friends, though they both still panic easily and they both apologized to each other.

As punishment, Tohru hugs the boy, which turns him into a sheep. Despite his dislike and jealously of Tohru, Hiro still brings Kisa to Shigure's house to watch an anime show. Hiro then demands Tohru to take him and Kisa out somewhere. At the park, it is revealed that some time prior, Hiro had admitted his love for Kisa to Akito, who later physically harmed the young girl resulting in her hospitalization. Hearing of this, Hiro subsequently began to ignore Kisa to prevent any further harm coming to her. Kisa's bullying occurred soon after, and Hiro was unable to help after ignoring her so suddenly. Thus Hiro became angry at himself and took that anger out on Tohru, who was able to help Kisa recover. Tohru, however, comforts him that it takes courage to admit that he is still a kid but he should be able to protect Kisa in the future.

Motoko Minagawa and two members of the "Prince Yuki" fan club come up with an elaborate plan to rid Yuki of Tohru by finding out the weakness of "demon queen" Saki. Saki invites them over to her house after school so the trio can search for her weakness under the pretense of asking her about her waves ability. Surprised at how normal Saki's place is despite her personality, the trio begin searching for clues in her room, but discover Megumi Hanajima, Saki's younger brother, hiding behind a closet. The awkward tension between the group is broken when Saki deduces their real reason for coming, and she and Megumi call out their actions in spite of their jealousy of Tohru's closeness with Yuki. The trio run off after Megumi recites their names (having been warned by Saki earlier to not say their names so carelessly should they wish to be cursed). Saki does admit to being a little jealous that Tohru is spending more time with the Sohmas, but is happily reassured when Arisa and Tohru drop by on her place out of concern for her. The next morning, Motoko and the two girls, having had the same nightmare about Saki and Megumi, are further teased when Saki states the curse will take effect after three days.

The episode recounts Saki's backstory prior to the start of the series. Born with powers that other people will never understand, she was bullied at elementary school by boys who claimed that she is a witch. This culminated into an incident when one of the bullies suddenly fell unconscious after Saki was thrown onto the classroom floor. Since then, the other kids began to prejudice her, accusing her of being the perpetrator when one kid got injured. Her brother Megumi comforts her and prays for someone to end her suffering. The situation did not improve even after a few years when girls burned Saki's arm and framed her for playing with matches, while she desperately tries to avoid repeating the incident. Saki was later transferred to a new high school out of her parents' concern for her well-being. She meet Tohru and Arisa during lunchtime, but unlike the others, Tohru and Arisa are being friendly to her, so she steadily begins to hang out with them. Two seasons pass when two girls ask Saki about the earlier incidents. The memories cause Saki to use her powers on them and runs off. But Tohru caught up to her and consoles Saki to not distance herself, while Arisa tells her to not assume things. Saki emotionally became firm friends with Tohru and Arisa as a result. After some time has passed, Saki can no longer hear the voices in her head, although she can still use her waves to "chastise" people a bit. As the sun sets, Kyoko explains that people cannot live without others and that no matter what happens, she wants to be accepted by them, and even if Saki, Tohru, and Arisa go to their separate ways, some part of the relationship will always stay with her.

Kyo makes some dinner for Tohru to eat, but when he sees her crying about not doing anything better, he tells her that she needs to get better soon, with his own way of saying it. Tohru smiled as she eats the dinner that he made. Hatori, Momiji, and Kana then visit Tohru, and after Hatori injects Tohru with the medicine, Yuki handed her the notebook with the notes for her to study for the make-up exam. After Tohru passed the make-up exam and walking home with Kyo and Yuki, they met Kagura again, even though Kyo tried to run away from her again. Shigure forced Kyo to go shopping with Kagura. While on a "date", Kagura asked Kyo about hiding his "true form" from Tohru, but then he shuts her mouth for mentioning it. But then, after getting back home, Kyo suddenly met someone familiar to him in the front door.

He thus confides in Shigure his plan to confront Kyo and expose his true cat form in the belief that Tohru will save him, which Kagura overhears. That night Kazuma removes the rosary from Kyo's wrist and exposes his true form in front of Tohru, with Kagura and Yuki watching from behind the scenes. Frightened of ultimately losing her, he runs away from the house but Tohru follows him. She catches up to him but Kyo violently turns her away. Although initially repulsed at the sight, Tohru does not back away but instead clings to Kyo and vows to never leave his side. The embrace reminds Kyo of his mother before her passing, and briefly turns back to normal before transforming into the cat, as Tohru carries him back to the house.

Before long however, Kazuma grew to love Kyo as his son. Kyo manages to catch up to the pair, and apologizes for being a burden to Kazuma. Now knowing each others' feelings, Kyo and Kazuma firmly reconcile their relationship as Kyo vows to become stronger. Meanwhile Kagura leaves early while Yuki himself is unsure of his feelings. This attracts Hatsuharu's attention and brings it up with Tohru, who is also worried about Yuki.

After school, most of the Zodiac members are invited to dinner at Shigure's house. The episode ends with Hiro visiting Rin at the hospital, and Shigure himself at Akito's side, sensing that change is coming and the family curse might finally break.
