great ova , it reminds me how much i loved toradora. I didn't expect it to be some kind of epilogue since i never seen one from an OVA.

I guess the last scene took place after the series for me it's the epilogoe eventhoug it's short but it's nicely done.

I think a lot of people are confused regarding the timeline of this episode. This episode takes place after the ending of the TV series with mostly flashback of the time taking place during the middle of the series.

It starts with Taiga preparing bento for their Sakura viewing and this takes place after the ending of the TV series. After the OP credits it is a flashback of the time Ryuuji making bento very seriously. After the flashback the episode ends with them going Sakura viewing with Taiga bringing the bento she was making in the beginning of the episode and this part also takes place after the TV series.

It's obvious the opening scene takes place after the TV series since Taiga is being seen in an apartment different from the one where she used to live during the TV series. There was also a voiceover from Ryuuji during the opening scene stating about the day Ryuuji understood the importance of bento and so this suggests that it is a flashback after the OP credits. Sakura trees were blooming and Taiga left during their 2nd school year winter, suggesting the ending scene takes place during spring after their graduation which is further supported by the Taiga x Ryuuji moment seen in the ending.

My sister flipped out when I texted her the Toradora OVA was out. I think she got home in record time. I saw it too, and was very pleased.

I loved it as any Toradora episode, it was funny and all (could have been better if it was an epilogue or show us Taiga and Ryuuji's couple life) but I still want my Minori spin-off T___T God hear my prayers.

I felt so bad when I saw Minori's face at the restaurant, it really shows that she liked Ryuuji since way back (and how she wished for him to make bentos for her).

Didn't like the episode itself too much, but.. omg I missed Minorin so much. And sure enough she was awesome as always.

Weirdly, I enjoyed it a lot, but it doesn't change it from being bad and disappointing.

It wasn't bad but I expected something else, I'd hoped for more Taiga x Ryuuji but I guess it's my fault for expecting to much. Overall it was a good OVA.
