| what a nice ep :) |
| I quite liked this episode. It was entertaining~ (I didn't "love" it, but it was good!) Asako said: This is how a romantic comedy should be done. This. :D Wasabi said: What's up with the parrot? I'm wondering this too, I suppose. It really freaks me out, that parrot... |

| Way too fast paced. |

| Way too fast paced. |
|
| Man, that Takasu is a nice guy, I feel kind of sorry for him. He better get some Taiga action in the future or I'll be pissed. |
 |
| The best part of the episode was Taiga getting hit in the face with the basketball. |
 |
| well i think it was a good idea to give this show a chance again, really starting to hate abusive female leads, though this episode really stopped me from dropping this series. WHY said: I really hate Taiga. yes i agree Animatronix said: The best part of the episode was Taiga getting hit in the face with the basketball. serves her RIGHT! |
     |
| Looks like I will need to re-watch this show. Either it's because it's been ages since I last watched it, or I just don't get it. -Boy is secretly in love with girl for quite some time -Girl actually/finally confesses to boy -Boy rejects girl what exactly did I miss right there. For what reason do you decline a confession if you really are in love with the person doing it. |
| For some weird reasons, I don't actually find it amusing. I don't know why but there's just this blunt feeling about this one that will not help me in understanding it's plot. Grrrr...I really hate this feeling. I feel like I don't have any feeling for each of the characters. lol Well, I don't like to drop this so yeah I'll keep on watching it.' |
| <.< weird bird |
| Throughout the whole episode I was excited just like in the first episode. The plot, the characters, everything in this anime is perfect for me. "He said 'Taiga'." was the line that I least expected. Goosebumps, chills, shivers, laughs, feels - I got everything for 20 minutes. So far I am enjoying this anime a lot! |
 |
| Aside from not really defining Taiga and Ryuuji's new found friendship quite enough this was a really solid episode. I forgot how fun a character Minorin is. |
| "Yes, I have been deprived of emotion. But not completely. Whoever did it, botched the job." - Geralt of Rivia |
| this anime remembered me by the film "THE UGLY TRUTH" |
| Yay.. that was soo cute of Taiga!!! |
| Dat wacky chasing scene. It was pretty ridiculous. And Taiga needs to control her anger. Minori is retarded. |
 "Your sight, my delight. Will you marry me?" |
| I thought it moved from happy to sad too quickly, but overall, it was a good episode :) |
| These first to episodes have been great. I really like all of the characters so far and am already starting to get attached. Pacing was fine for me but I haven't read the LN and apparently they've left some things out so I might go back and read it after I finish the anime. |

| Lol so Taiga got friendzoned by Kitamura, eh. Who cares, we all know who are the OTP here :) The dragon and the tiger, huh? :) That parakeet is seriously scary. |
 |
| So yeah it took her almost a min and a half to say what she wanted to Kitamura but that is because he kept asking her stuff while she was trying to confess but it was cute how much she was struggling |
 |
| That was some fast character development from Taiga! Though her getting friendzoned was... Kinda blunt :( nice episode. |
| Taiga got friendzoned bi Kitamura cause he so that Taiga & Ryuuji are falling for each other, its so obvious from the way she talked about Ryu |

| That was a cute and funny episode. Ryuuji and Tiger really are a weird ''couple''. I loved their evil plan at the basketball practice. Also when the two friend bring them on roof, Kitamura laugh cracked me up xD And man, what Kitamura told Taiga was almost too... frank. But I was pretty sure he would refuse. |
| «Time is passing so quickly. Right now, I feel like complaining to Einstein. Whether time is slow or fast depends on perception. Relativity theory is so romantic. And so sad.» - Kurisu Makise a.k.a. The Zombie |
| hopefully they dont base this entire show around these two characters half denying their lovefor each other |
"Urushibara Ruka. The mannerisms and voice of a woman... No... More feminine than any woman. But he's a guy. Taller than Mayuri, but so very thin... But he's a guy. Looks great in a miko outfit... But he's a guy. It's already twilight And yet, it's so hot. The cicadas are crying. But... He's a guy." |
| Taiga's character design is really cute |
| That little laugh at the end, quite adorable, this is a wonderful anime. |
| Oh wow, we are already deep inside the drama? I would never thought of it. Taiga seems to be one of the most nice tsunderes I have encountered yet, maybe it's just the prevalent "dere" side of her. She clearly putted up a shell to masque her clumsiness, but she showed her weakness without secondary thoughts, like she was desperately in need of some friendly ears to hear her, judging by how she opened herself with a guy just known. And, I really like Ryuuji. He's a very nice person who because of appearences and prejudictions is unable to express his positive attitude towards others and be known for what he truly is: a good friend. I also love his VA, as well as every other character's. Nothing to say about character design as well, I simply like it, even though I don't see it suitable for drama and seriousness. I hope this show will display also Ryuuji's efforts on trying to conquer Minori, and you know what? I also want that those 2 will end with who they really love, and not just end together, like cliche wants. |
| That was a quick and powerful confession wow. |
 |
| Definitely liking the direction this is going, enjoying it a lot! It feels different from your average rom/com so far. |
| Wow, this guy's a fucking pushover. Why try to be friends with an obnoxious little cunt who disrespects you? |
| taiga annoys me but by the end she grows on you, |
| That went... things got a little heavy. I wonder what they will do now. |
| The pacing was so fast. Taiga friendzoned by Kitamura. Obvious OTP is obvious. Bheaze said: +1hopefully they dont base this entire show around these two characters half denying their lovefor each other |
| This was so fast paced, I thought I watched 12 episodes already. XD |

Makes me wonder about Minori.Taiga got friendzoned bi Kitamura cause he so that Taiga & Ryuuji are falling for each other, its so obvious Seriously, Ryūji, she needs a hug. Go give her one. It's always funny when you hear something like what Taiga was saying about Ryūji and can't help but think "Well, that sounds familiar..." without referring to another show. Heh. *hears a loud sneeze in the distance* |

Heh. *hears a loud sneeze in the distance* >.<; shush you! *mumbles* about taiga : Poor Taiga. baby girl got friend zoned. It's ok. Girls are now getting friend-zoned more than guys I hear from sources. but hey, baby girl. You got Ryūji-kun. your dragon. As indicated in his name. Give him a chance. Kitamura, yeah he might easy on the eyes, but hon. you're falling for Ryūji-kun. don't be so pre-occupied with kitamura that you lose sight of the person who is : always looking after you. is there for you when you need him. makes sure you're alright, good or bad. About: Ryūj-kun : you're a good guy. to put up with all Taiga's violent behavior. Please continue to stay this way. to be a good guy to Taiga. she's little, and needs you. though the stubborn kitty won't really admit to it. |

| Taiga just got friend-zoned. |
~my list

Bheaze said: hopefully they dont base this entire show around these two characters half denying their lovefor each other word better than the first episode but it feels soooo obvious Taiga and Ryu are going to be a "thing." I like the pacing though. Actually, I love the pacing. Taiga is such an ass it frustrates the hell out of me, but she had so many cute moments I can't hate her. |

| I liked it when that red girl was flying. |
 |
| Wow she confessed but got rejected... Now she is developing a new crush :3 Gonna enjoy this series too |
[center] *>.>[Spoiler][/spoiler]<.<* [center] |
| That escalated quickly, well, maybe even too quickly. But I really can't say I wasn't enjoying it all. It's true that by now he knows her the best because the moments they shared but it felt little rushed and feelings of love shouldn't change so quickly. Maybe it wasn't love in the first place, only simple infatuation but still, it feels like they were bit forced into their roles. Of course, that doesn't change the fact that this episode was pretty good, and that they managed to show Taiga's dere side too (the scene by the pole was brilliant). I kinda expected she will be rejected though. It's only obvious she was talking about Ryuuji during confession becuase he was there for her when she needed it the most. But that doesn't change the fact Kitamura shot her down pretty ruthlessly as noone wants to be friendzoned. When Kitamura left, their Tora x Dora pact only confirmed they care for each other, in their own way (Ryuuji's smile or tsundere-ish Taiga were pretty obvious). Still, I'm not sure I liked it that Ryuuji left his conversation with Kushieda, not caring what she was saying at all. It was like his crush was gone. But.. I guess the trigger was that Taiga did something for his sake (and therefore it's somehow understandable). In the end they wanted to be enemies yet they became something more than just friends. Now I really wonder what this show has in store. I have the feeling there will be date of Ryuuji and Kushieda and that both of them (Ryuuji and Taiga) realize their true feelings by then. |
