The 2001 version didn't cover the entire manga, so they made a new adaptation in 2019 to fully capture the story. More Tohru, more feels!

Honestly, the 2001 version was great, but the 2019 one just hits differently. Full story, better animation โ€“ it's a win-win!

Simple answer: money and nostalgia! Fans wanted the full story, and studios wanted to cash in.

They made a new version in 2019 to better reflect the original manga's story. Pretty much a reboot for the fans!
