“Shigure: JUST LISTEN TO ME FOR A SECOND, KYO!Kyo: SHUT UP! I HATE THIS! DO YOU REALLY GET THAT MUCH ENJOYMENT FROM PLAYING WITH PEOPLES' LIVES?!Shigure: Well, yes, now that you mention it, I do--BUT THIS IS FOR YOUR OWN GOOD!Kyo: Man, your persuasion skills SUCK!Tohru: Um, welcome home. Dinner's-Kyo: NOT HUNGRY!Shigure: KYO! DON'T TAKE THIS OUT ON TOHRU! And come back to the entrance hall this instant and take those shoes off!Yuki: He's right, Shigure. You really do suck at persuasion.”

“Shigure:"A summer home like this by the lake, you half expect JASON to show up!"Yuki: "There he goes again..."Kyo: (Thinking to himself) Jieison...Jaysun? Now where have I heard that before?Shigure: "'Jason' is a new species of bear. You're so ignorant, Kyo-Kun."Kyo: "SHUT UP! I KNEW THAT!!"Hatori:"That's not it..."Tohru:"Is it a foreign kind of bear?"Hatori:"....”

“♪Kyo-kun and Tohru sitting in a tree... K-I-S...♪- Shigure Sohma”

“I'm home! Yuki-Kun, Tohru-Kun, I'm home! Oh, and let's not forget Stupid-clumsy-Kyo-Kun-who-lost-yet-another-fight!" -Shigure”

“Yuki: "Honda-san... you'd better stop, or he'll get a swelled head."Kyo: "Doesn't Shigure already HAVE a swelled head?”

“Shigure: "That's lovely. She’s so... how shall I say it? By putting it into words I'm afraid the nobility of it all would only be obscured."Yuki: "Of what?"Shigure: "You know, she's so spunky!"Kyo: "You sick bastard!”

“Shigure: "Lemme guess; you lost your temper and yelled at her again, right? You know, you shouldn't do that if you're just going to regret it. Not too bright, now is it?"Kyo: "Save your breath. I'm just not meant to get along with other people. Period. End of story."Shigure: "Oh sure, some people just aren't. But you're not one of them. You lack experience, that's all. For example, I'm sure you could smash this table to bits with your bare hands. But I'm equally sure you could punch the table without breaking it. And why is that? Because I know your training has taught you to control your fists... at least I should hope so, after four months of fighting bears and-"Kyo: "I didn't fight bears!"Shigure: "My point is, it takes just as much training to get along with people. Only, training by yourself in the mountains won't do you any good. You need to surround yourself with others. As you get to know them, of course you take the chance that you'll end up hurting them, or they'll end up hurting you. One of those things might very well happen. That's the only way we learn... about others, and about ourselves. You're a black-belt in martial arts, but I'd guess you still a white-belt in social skills. Someday, you're going to meet someone that truly wants to be your friend, and you, theirs. But it if you don't keep training, you won't be ready when that happens."Kyo: "It'll never happen, anyways!"Shigure: "Uh-uh! Never say never."Kyo: "Ok, fine. Maybe if I meet someone with brain-damage... or something."Shigure: "That's the spirit!”
