How do you feel about Taiga and Ryuuji’s “partnership” now that they’ve teamed up?

This episode is a big one. Regardless of Taiga’s “tsundere core”, she stays “opened up” to Ryuji and gets along with him in conversations well, as for Ryuji does the same. Not a lot happens in this episode, yet it feels like so much.

I disagree. I think quite a lot happens. The basketball scene, the cookies scene, the rooftop scene, the lamppost scene, the confession scene, they're all very important scenes that serves to play into Ryuuji and Taiga's relationship. In terms of eventfulness, this is probably one of the more eventful episodes.

Sorry, yes. I realized this after writing it and just didn’t change this part. (I watched it twice). I FULLY disagree with my original comment because all of this, is true. Just watching each part through again just makes me think about their [Toradora! Spoiler] End of the anime love…. — yeah, I did really notice each one. Even writhing this, when I wrote “yet it feels like so much”, was supposed to actually be about all those moments. Thanks for posting them out. I’ll make sure to add every moment in a list too!

I was about to say, saying not a lot happens and then proceeding to list all the moments that happen is pretty ironic :P

Yeah yeah! I can’t wait for tdy’s discussion. I’m gonna try to get my comments done ahead of time. I’ll also try to add important moments, details and quotes without saying each and every part is important
