Basically, it shows how Tohru's hopeful nature acts as a catalyst for healing for the Sohma family!

It's just a quick way to introduce Tohru as the ultimate embodiment of kindness and perseverance. Nothing too deep here, IMO.

That first scene really hits home. It's Tohru's determination to keep smiling despite her hardships that defines the entire series.
