Wow, it was all slightly odd, I didn't expect it to play out this way but...I loved this episode! Oh my goodness, the soundtrack for this series! <3

It may also be I'm a drama lover, and, this episode made me love Toradora! even more. Minorin is so cute, and funny oh my goodness && I'm definately anticipated for the next episode, Taiga's expression to Ami and Ryuuji. It makes me smile at the idea of Taiga x Ryuuji, wehoo! I want more!

EDIT: PS: woaah! Thanks Chibuki for the link to your gifs! They are amazing <3

liked the ep it was good

Yay for having Ami become her true mean and rude self instead of hiding behind a mask people who hide behind masks like that are lame and boring also it was nice seeing her break that stalkers camera then hearing him cry about how hes not how he supposedly knew her...

I'm thinking of two love triangles - Taiga x Kitamura x Sumire and Ami x Ryuuji x Minorin. That would be interesting although I still vote for the Taiga x Ryuuji ending.

This is how all romance, comedy anime should be this has set the bar its fantastic, this episode was very ami related but you do get to learn why she cant show her true self and that even though she is dark she is still human with fears and shows a little jealousy to taiga cant wait for the next episode

Ami confuses me still... maybe I just shouldn't watch this show with a migraine- but why does she put up a fake personality anyways??? I don't understand her reasoning at all yet.

And at first didn't she just want to "play" with Ryuuji to get to Taiga- but now she likes him for real knowing how sweet he is? Right?

Read my posts they will tell you more. In short in modeling agencies it is common to do that so you can earn yourself a place. Also sometimes Ami uses her fake personality to play with the hearts of others thus earning in the the end her own selfish interest.

Now we hope things can change.

I think this was probably the best episode so far. Ami's development was great, Takasu talking to Ami was awesome and Taiga and Minorin were there usual crazy selves. Kitamura has been boring so far, I hope they make him a real part of the main cast instead of the complete supporting character he is now.

9+ for this episode.

The best episode in the series so far, in my opinion, very good comedy and character development all around. Crazy Ami is craaazy, but also awesome, and I want more. Despite her being a completely minor character, I want more appearances by the Student Council President in the future, she's awesome.

She doesn't have any split personality, she know that she have a princess-like attitude and she think that she wouldn't be able to make any friend if she would show her true self to other people.
Seeing Aisaka having friend even tough she have a really harsh personnality made her realise that even if she show her true self a little more with the time she still will have friend by her side.
That why she gone berserk and pwned the camera dude.

Ryuuji is great, but he gets overshadowed by the pure awesomeness that is Minorin.

As for ecchi... now that I think of it there hasn't been any so far. Guess it just seems like it would be that kind of show? :-P

LOL TAIGA + MINORIN COMBO HELL YEAH!!!!!11!111!!!!

It turns out she's a pitiful one, having her life messed up due to being weak. It was complicated and kinda went on by itself, but I guess Ryuuji now understood what's going on and what's up with the fake personality "mask".

Real nice episode with drama, more on Ami's character. I love the Minorin's part here as I do Taiga. Alone they're awesome, together they're unstoppable!

GIF time~


are you watching 1080p episodes of toradora? because i holy shit'd at that big gif of taiga holding ami's head.

LOL at big wall of text in illifin's blog about notes..... this really is a cursed project xD
the episode was definitely epic. toradora is getting better and better, and ami = <3
lol @ minorin and taiga combo on ami. i had a wtf expression the whole time until i finally brang myself together to understand what just happened xD
ami is cute when she was being afraid of the stalker. i can't believe taiga got mad at ami for holding takasu's arm... make up your mind, kitamura, or takasu's attention xD
at least this did not go cliche, and ami went to taiga's place instead of ryuuji's.
poor ami... taiga went into devil monster mode with her xD
Michael Jackson riding a bus... i lol'd
Ami is cute when she wants to be.... :D
i loved it when ami started to misunderstand and minorin was just whistling xD
Taiga is a bad friend..... nevertheless, tsundereness is moe, so i accept her.
comparing each other to thrash... they are really on the same level...
i loved it when ami showed herself because of the mud and the frog xD
and finally, ryuuji lets ami know that he knows of her true colors.... but she is still cute to me
lol, poor stalker..... if only he knew how bad he would get beaten....
and ami.... finally realizes that being followed by a stalker can be overcome by showing her true self.... xD
Ami's real smile... YAY... scary though
ami is fast...
and her destroying the camera reminded me of higurashi so much xD
but she is still so loveable... i am glad that takasu is actually a good friend.
and her deredere mode appears when she is alone with takasu.... at least we all know she isn't putting on a facade anymore
why was taiga so surprised at ami being so close to takasu?
and lol @ inko.... he looked so wrong xD
next episode seems good. more ami <3
overall great episode.
i wish for more ami next epi. ryuuji x ami is actually a pretty good pairing.

gotta love these

Ami "Sonozaki" Kawashima was amazing ;) Contrary to some of you here, I think that Toradora is still perfectly directed and that makes half of its quality for now, the other half being mainly its characters. That's one of the very few animes of the syle with such a distinct atmosphere and real quality writing and execution, and which is NOT generic. Even if the situations and themes are not particularly original, they're well put on the screen and that's why I enjoy watching it a lot. This show has a real heart and that makes the difference with 90% of the romantic comedy anime (who said Kannagi, the absolutely generic "seen 10000 times" show? ;p).

In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same.

Perhaps but there is psychologically something wrong with her. Her emotional reactions are really abnormal and she said herself that the Stalker messed up her life so much as to quite in the modeling for a while.

That is some serious psychological shock and I heard some of these things from Seiyus (anime voice actors) they got mind fucked by some crazy fan and stopped for some time.

I can tell I'm really starting to get into a series when I am anticipating each episode. This is the case with 'Toradora!'. The characters are quite well set out and the story is light and moving along quite nicely. Can't wait for the next episode!

Wowowowo! This episode was so great! Honestly. This show is without a doubt a great pick. Can hardly wait for ep 7, though it seems next episode is more generic.

I am also really starting to like Ami. So far I would be in for a RxA pairing, too. But who knows if there is even a pairing end. Most of these romance comedy anime don't bother with a real romance ending.
But those two are so meant for each other. Two people with the "evil look"! XD

The best ones in the whole series by far.

I might sound incoherent by liking an show which is taking a turn into harem, but this is getting just plain awesome.

I might as well be considered as a stupid guy, but Amy x Ryuuji seems an great couple. lol

Defiantly not~ Ryuuji is my favorite XD. He's actually one of my favorite lead male characters :nod nod:
Indeed. I think that he is actually, one of the best male leads out there. No, rly, he has some realistic personality traits. (Taking aside the acceptance of taiga's random beating.)

(1.) Hell Yeah
(2.) Saddly enough. Well, if it ends like that, we can always check the manga later.
Though i'm pretty sure we all know how the manga is going to end. Don't we?

oh, one more thing, Taiga is finnaly turning into a better character.
I'm pretty sure we still get her bitch side, but thats some price to pay for this anime.
At first, i really liked her, then i started hating her, now i'm just meh.
As for Ami, i was like WTF? then Fuk Yeah! Then lol (Girls like that are scary.) Then FUK YEAH! And at the stalker beating i was just like GARRRRRRRRR GAOOO
Just awesome!
