| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- What an amazing pace this episode is moving on. Felt like they squeeze 4 or 5 episodes into this one. Seriously, I'm finding it hard to enjoy. |
| I agree that was a lot of stuff in one episode. Though since I haven't read the last couple of volumes of the novel I have no idea how much they crammed into this. |
I've Been Watching Anime for 20 years now. Can you beat that? |
| Yea I just saw the episode and I kinda agree. But it turned out okay. Ryuuji and Taiga deciding to elope and introducing her as his bride/fiancee mmmmmmm.. |
"It's because you exist.. That I'm here right now.."  |
| i guess it felt somewhat of a fastpaced ep, but throughout the ep it just didnt appeal to me, didnt like where it was headed. so hopefully the last ep will make it worth it. |
     |
| I thought so. I see... Now we know why Taiga's leaving and Minorin's running in the opening. |
I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
HoaRy said: Nosebleed is the soul's sweating. Tears are the soul's nosebleeding. Huh?! That goes on my facebook quotes...lucky you HoaRy!! ^_^ Taiga's mum is uber cute. I was a bit saddened seeing my girl Ya-chan cry. Funny enough I know what happens here since I read the novel where this scene was displayed in the same way. Good stuff...I won't spoil with the cool part that comes up soon. Probably me and soulelle know it. |
 |
| but anyway.. I feel totally over-emo'ed once again... this is why I love Toradora.. no matter how awful the pace is.. there're always scenes that makes you FEEL all possible shades of emotions, that blow your mind, and that turn your inside out ^^ poor Ami to Minori.. I felt extremely sad for them left alone.. but the fact they become good friends cheered me enough to compensate for that... and OH MY Ya-chann.... I cryed when you ran away... don't tell me it's only Inko-chan you're now with... let's hope she's gonna be fine and somehow everything returns to normal!!! They really are a good family all together, arent'they: Ya-chan, Ryu-chan, Taiga-chan and Inko-chan!! So I do pray they end up together!!! Mod Edit: Please do not post novel spoilers. |

| Seemingly one of the few here who's not complaining about the pacing, since I think it was necessary in order to reach a conclusion before the season ends. What I'm irritated about is that we actually got a Ryuuji Taiga end. Yes, it was obvious. Yes, it was kind of the sole purpose of the show. But that's why I hate it, I expected at least one relationship plottwist that would shatter the Ryuuji Taiga pairing. But hey, even though I dislike the path this story has delved into, the execution of it was and still is nice. Also, first time I willingly watched a raw. Surprised at how much I understood~ |
| Waiiiiii~ It was like the best episode so far!!>< Though I really feel bad for Amin, less than in the last episode but still. And now I started to feel bad for Minorin too. *sigh* BUT TAIGA x RYUUJI 4EVER!!! They're SOOOO cute together!! Like the perfect couple. I can't for the next ep and I really hope a kiss! They're going to marry, but they haven't kissed yet! I watched Toradora every wednesday in raw (I've understood everything yes) and now the next episode is the last one....... ;_ ; I want my weekly Toradora!!!! I hope there's at least an OVA or something. I know there's specials, but.... |
| Damn! That was Epic! It hurts me that its almost over. Man all my Anime are ending this month, what am I gonna watch when all this epicness end. Clannad ~After Story~ Toradora! Index. Next I will watch: K-ON Pandora Hearts Natsu no Arashi! 07-Ghost Hatsukoi Limited Valkyria Chronicles Tears to Tiara Saki I am expecting big things from K-ON. I just hope those are Half as good and Clannad and Toradora! cause its gonna be really hard to top those.... I mean REALLY HARD! |
| Go Watch Sumomo momo Its epic. It has not gotten much attention... Episode 1 http://www.veoh.com/videos/v83597095dreGdW#comments  |
| Loved the episode!!! I just feel a sense of sadness now because it is about to end. :*( |
| I Hated it , i was hoping it would end more like Ryuuji and Minori , god is my witness I'm not watching the last episode.... |
| This episode made me want to ship Minorin and Amin. |

| VIVA O BIBSCESAR |
| OMFG THE KISS MOMENT GOT INTERRUPTED!!! NOO!!! HOPE THEY'LL DO IT NEXT EPISODE !!! Btw are Takasu Ryuuji going to marry Aisaka Taiga?!?! YAAAY! |
 |
| Any ideas on where to find a sub version? I watched it through in japanese and caught like every other sentence but i really want to know the rest. |
| No subs yet.. I'm pretty sure the group subbing the anime has been working on it since the raw uploads.. Should be out and done sometime tonight or tomorrow. |
"It's because you exist.. That I'm here right now.." |
| Yacchan T_T Amin T_T Minorin T_T So many things happening in one episode. I hate how they escaped together and introduced Taiga to his grandparents as his wife, mostly because a small part of me thought that maybe, maybe Ryuuji x Minorin ending was still possible in that one, little scene, especially after her confession. Moreover, he made my Yacchan cry! Oh, how I hate Ryuuji for making my ever-smiling Yacchan cry! That is unacceptable. A-min and Kushieda are in a very bad situation too. I can see the ending where Ryuuji and Taiga saying I love you to each other for the first time and kissing. Just hoping that the series will end with a few seconds clip with the main cast playing happily in Ami's summer house, excluding Kitamura who will be with Sumire in USA. Ryuuji's harem, banzai! |
| that episode boggled my mind, i still dont completly understand y Yasuko was mad and y those two decided to elope >.< |
linx_sr said: k, we won't miss you. I've been one of the most vocally advocating Minori and Ryuuji on these forums, yet the way this ending is being handled(with the exception of pacing) is making me quite happy.I Hated it , i was hoping it would end more like Ryuuji and Minori , god is my witness I'm not watching the last episode.... There are some subs out by "CGS", but they weren't terribly good. I'd advise waiting for Coal Guys at this point. As far as I understand, CG went from the flu, and straight into midterms so it may be a little behind. As for my actual thoughts on the episode, I enjoyed it. It was pretty good, if a little confusing due to all the stuff jammed in it, coupled with poor subs. So thank you, Random Curiosity! Anyhoo, I can't wait for the ending, that's not to say I don't love this show, but it's like crack. Anyhoo, kudos to Taiga. As much as I hate to admit it, they make a cute couple, especially when Taiga is having one of her dere-dere moments. Still can't believe he introduced her as his wife, though. Still a tick upset about what Ryuuji said to Yasuko, but it's understandable, as was her reaction. Neither wants to trouble the other, hopefully everything comes together next week! See ya there! |

mad82 said: Okay, so I was being a little generous when I said "not terribly good". Yes, they were indeed horrendous. I mean, Takahashi-kun and Kushida-san? Bitch please.Bakayaro said: There are some subs out by "CGS", but they weren't terribly good. I'd advise waiting for Coal Guys at this point. They were horrible. Some of it might have been the pacing but there was some scenes that just made no sense to me. |
"I'd suck you~" Berri||Desu Ne? |
| Ryujii: "Omai wa..." Taiga: "Anata..." Unison: "Suuu..." -phone rings- LOL, such a cute scene. |
 |
| I HATED seeing Yasuko like that. Is it true that she got remarried just like that? I would so freaking infuriated if that were true. This is not a great ending. They have to escape their whole lives to be together? I sure hope they go back, because this is retarded. And I'd better freaking get to see Yasuko smile again! I'm seriously pissed about that. Seeing her cry and then leave broke my heart. So DUMB. F&%$! |

| "lets elope and get married!" not date, but get married. whoawhoawoowhoa. i felt bad for minorin but she should have just been like... ryuji i like you too! way back in episode 5... but that wouldnt have left us with much of a show =P m happy its taiga x ryuji though this episode was confusing with the subs.... too much randomness and spontaneity, i mean, ryuji yells at ya-chan and makes her cry!!! wtf! everyone is sad that the season is ending, but hey, next season is looking pretty awesome |
| What the fuck? Are you serious? That's how they decided to go about things? Get married? Elope? Wow....just wow. I'm sorry, that was just so random. Everything happened waaaaay too quickly in this episode. I agree with someone who posted above that this episode really contained like 3-4 episodes in one. Wow. |
juando said: everyone is sad that the season is ending, but hey, next season is looking pretty awesome i'm like 99.99999% sure that there is no second season. unless you mean next season of animes and then i have no idea what to watch myself :) except fma2. |
I've Been Watching Anime for 20 years now. Can you beat that? |
| didnt it strike you guys funny how tasaku's grandparents resemble him and tiaga? |
| Need a new sig |
| I think my mind vomited after watching CGS subs, but it gave me the gist of what they were trying to say, but I'll definitely be re-watching this episode when better subs come out. I was satisfied with the episode overall, even though "Lost my pieces" was never played. Anyone that makes Yasuko cry should get their head impaled by something, but I'll let it go just this time. It feels a little irresponsible to elope all of a sudden, but I can understand how they saw this as their only option... I can't bear to think that it only has one more episode left... On another note, I hate seeing Ami being friendly with Minorin, but I wasn't exactly surprised since it seemed inevitable. I just find a cold Ami a lot more likable. |

| Wow, it seems like a lot of people hate this show solely because Takasu isn't going to marry Minori, blaming that it's too predictable. I think it would have been predictable either way, for Takasu to marry Taiga or Minori. Anyways, I still enjoyed it the show, even though I'm skeptical of what two 18 year olds know about life. |
 Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol. |
HawthorneKitty said: I think my mind vomited after watching CGS subs... yeah...they were really sucky, and there were parts definitely bad translated.... BUT worst is nothing... |
| ................ ゆっくりしていってね！！！...................... |
| This episode was absolutely abysmal. Lame/cheesy drama throughout the entire episode and to top off the overly dramatic bullshit, they add the eloping part. I'm serious, my score literally went from a 9 to a 7 after this episode. It's cool and all for them to proclaim love for one another, but to have them act so nonchalantly about the marriage stuff(making them do it in the first place for that matter) was just the epitome of lame. I mean come on, asking a chick to marry you before you have even said "I love you" is fucking stupid. It sounds more like the words of a stupid melodramatic teenager rather than someone who is truly in love. It seems to me they added the eloping part just to break cliches, but if that's the case I'd rather have the cliche than this shoddy end. EDIT: I dunno, I just feel as if any real emotional connection I had to the characters has vanished out of thin air because of how cheesy this ending is. |

Tango337 said: I could have tolerated this like 10 times better if they had a scene like that before the proposal. It is exactly as you just said, its downright confusing. I would still hold it against the anime for even adding a marriage part, but to at least have a kiss/confession scene would have eased my mind a lot more.and mainly the kiss between them and their confessions of love for each other. I find it stupid how they left that out, it made everything confusing. |
Tango337 said: The sub are THAT bad? Man, even I can make better subs...No, Taigas mother did. You must be watching some shitty ass subs i saw posted somewhere earlier. I suggest waiting for coalguys. Tango337 said: I bet they're holding the kiss for the last episode as an attempt to make one last climax. But yeah, this episode was badly paced.Thats what happens when they try to rush this and fit 10 novels into 25 episodes. They left out a crapload and mainly the kiss between them and their confessions of love for each other. I find it stupid how they left that out, it made everything confusing. |
| ^Dude look up, someone else beat you to it. And yeah CGS sucks wei, at the end of ep 23 especially. What IS wrong with the production people? They can't hold out for one more ep to resolve the confession properly? It's just weird having T&R talk about elopement and marriage when they haven't even gotten used to the idea that they're in love with their best friend! Ami left alone with Minorin was cute, I was half-expecting Ami to wrap her arms around Minorin to comfort her. Then again it's Ami after all, should've expected those blaise condescending remarks. Ep 25 preview looks promising, looks like A.M.K. are gonna go bust out T&R in a flashy climatic end, Taiga's mom being the bad guy no doubt. And is that a purple-haired girl talking to Noto? Can't wait. |
| Poor Yacchan. All she did for Ryuuji and he snapped like that. Well since TaigaxRyuuji is pretty damn official, I don't agree with the whole eloping thing. Why not just stay and stand firm and face their problems head on? And they're kinda quick with the marriage thing. Now can we have some sekret forbidden AmixMinori pl0x? |
