Ayame Sohma (草摩綾女 Sōma Ayame) is a fictional character in the manga and anime entitled Fruits Basket. The older brother (and antithesis) of Yuki Sohma, he is flamboyant, expressive, and anything but soft-spoken. He often realizes too late that he has hurt other people emotionally from being self-centred.
Ayame transforms into the snake of the Chinese Zodiac whenever he is hugged by the opposite gender, when his body comes under a great deal of stress, or when he gets too cold or too hot.
He is one of the members of the Mabudachi Trio, consisting of the three oldest members of the zodiac. The other two are Shigure Sohma and Hatori Sohma, who are also his best friends. Ayame is also one of the few members of the Jyunishi who has never been hurt by Akito Sohma directly or indirectly (Kagura Sohma and Ritsu Sohma appear to be the only other ones).
Relationship with Yuki
Template:Spoiler Ayame is one of the oldest cursed members of the Sohma clan. He and Yuki do not get along very well until Ayame asks Yuki if he can go to a parent-teacher conference in the place of their parents, wishing to make amends for all the times in Yuki's childhood when Ayame sold him out. While Yuki still disapproves of Ayame's outrageous attitude and over "royal" behavoir, he admits that Ayame is somewhat reliable (which Ayame feels he must text message Hatori immediately with the news).
The fact that both Ayame and Yuki are members of the Jyunishi is quite unusual since it is very rare that any of the Jyunishi are siblings at any given time. Because their mother was unable to force Ayame to bend to her will, she turned to Yuki and controlled every aspect of his life. Yuki became emotionally both fragile and detached in her attempts to gain status and wealth within the family while she bluntly and tactlessly shot down any attempts he made to refuse her wishes. The unbalanced relationship between mother and son is broken completely and Yuki is finally able to stand up to her when Ayame appears at the parent-teacher conference, interrupting his mother as she dictates Yuki's future to his teacher. The two have been on considerably better terms since.
Ayame's Business
Ayame owns a men's cosplay shop (which he named after himself), specializing in "men's fantasies". To most people, the place is quite strange, as Ayame has gotten orders for some very strange things. Ayame and his assistant, Mine Kuramae (pronounced, "Mee-nay"), design and sew the clothing themselves. Mine often wears some of the clothing she makes. In the manga and anime, you see her in a maid's outfit. She likes to grab any particularly cute girls who come into the shop and make them try on clothes.
In the Manga
It is later revealed that Mine is Ayame's girlfriend and the seamstress of the store wheareas Ayame designs the dresses, erotic as some or all of them may be.
