| Am I the only one not crying? THIS ISN'T WHAT I WANTED gosh The whole marriage thing was just weird in my opinion |
| I hate most of the memes nowadays, but I don't have any better word for it: Well, that escalated quickly. The episode was way too fast. I'm really happy for Taiga and Ryuuji, but the whole thing felt really rushed and weird. First, about Taiga and Ryuuji. I'm so happy they finally got together, even though it was in a pretty weird way :) And now they wanna get married :D I also liked how Ryuuji outright told his grandparents that Taiga is his wife :D Ryuuji, why are you being an ass with your mother? Idiot... He is somewhat right about parents wanting to "force their dreams/failures on the children", but all she really wanted here was for him to have a happy and safe life. And now she ran away... I hope she will be alright :/ Taiga's mom is an ass, nothing more to say. I guess I'm a little sad for Minorin and Ami, but it really was about damn time. Btw, did they really just take Minorin's money and the other stuff they got? They really shouldn't have >_> |
 |
| Such a brilliant episode. Seriously loved it. Seen no single episode with this much awesomeness (maybe I have). Taiga as a bride - AWESOME! They both look so awesome together. Just marry now. Now Kiss! |
 |
| taiga and ryuuji getting married. im getting a little sad beacause i only have 1 episode left i think this anime is my most Discuss anime because on the other anime i always click dont discuss but in toradora i almost discuss all of the ep |
| It seems that you guys are ok with this episode,but i'm not. So first of all i hate that Ryuuji and Taiga will be together,beucase i was so exicted the whole anime to see the declartion of Ryuuji to the Minorin,it was the best thing. And then he discovers he loves taiga?dafuq? Why?as he said he was in love more than 1 year with Minorin,and then in a few weeks/months he falls in love with taiga?The same to taiga....how they change so fast their mind so fast? Love is something you live with,it's not a pair of socks you change everyday.... And from what i understood Kawashima loves Ryuuji too? |

| Heartbreaking.. really touching. I feel so sad for Minori and Ami.. although the outcome is clear from the start. Suddenly giving up on Minori and go for Taiga.. hard to take that in. (I like taiga too it's just..) Minori and that indirect kiss.. how my heart ache. *sobs* Ami is really strong.. she's awesome. PS: I somehow feel weird when they just took their friends belonging like that. |

BAAKA :) they did not change their mind so fast, have u ever heard about growing apart, it happens specially when u can't spend time to the 1 u love & spending it with some1 else (mostly it happens with long distant relationships, but sometimes it happens when ur closer to), & in this case it was Taiga & Ryuuji, they were together a lot & second they learned about each-other a lot & Ryuuji was so caring person it was impossible for her to not to fall for him, & Taiga was like some1 who needs protecting & help & so Ryuuji wanted to protect her & help her & so he did, & this are strong emotions what lead to love, & second what Ryuuji felt for Minori mite not have peen real love, it mite have peen school kids crush & admiration (same goes for Taiga), people ton't always know their own feelings & sometimes they mix up feelings, think before u post :) if u ton't like were this i going that's ur problem, not trying to convince u to like it, but i'm just pointing out mistakes in ur statement :) |

| Seeing Yasuko cry ans argue with Ryuuji breaks my heart :( I feel soo sooo bad Other than that though, I love this episode even with the rushed proposal :) |

| When the parent showed up, I though «Fuck, they messed up the confession», then I realised that they still confessed, THEN I realised that they fucked up the rest of their adolescence. Taiga mother (was it her step-mother...?) really looked like a huge bitch. Still, I forgive Yasuko because she really tried her best to be a mother to Ryuugi. The scene in the beginning was really great, Minorin have finally been able to tell her true feeling. Seeing her break up later was the only possible outcome of what happenned during the series. The scene on the bridge was really cute and funny. Sad though that that phonecall ruined the moment. It think they made the right choice. It may seem excessive, but it was the only way they could move on. He alreasy adress to her as is wife, quite a relief from the episode before :P |

| naninaninaninaninaninaninaninaninani!!! Cool episode. Kushieda is such a poet. First substituting the unknown (ghosts, ufos) to represent love, and now "tears are nosebleeds from your eyes". :^) voice of our generation. |
| So cute! What an adorable episode haha Anyone know of any anime similar (in terms of cuteness) to toradora? Like sword art online? thanks :) |
| ditched ami's beach villa huh |
"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." |
| Forget the Villa, everyone's one big family now. =3 |
| There really was a lot going on in this one. Also, I fucking love Minorin! She's just so... no words. |
millefeui said: +1Dem feels. <3 Too much stuff happened and I am lazy to comment. Lets just say I love all main characters in this show, including Yasuko. Poor Yasuko ;_; Poor Minorin ;_; Ryuujin saying Taiga is his wife was <3333 |

Poor Yasuko ;_; Poor Minorin ;_; Ryuujin saying Taiga is his wife was <3333 I feel also bad for Minorin and Ami. I think both have feels for Takasu. And when Minorin was crying gosh it was heartbreaking. I don´t want that someone of them is unhappy. I´m really curious what will happen in the next episode. So far Toradora is awesome. :) |
 |
| I can't denied how great of a couple Ryuuji and Taiga are...they fit each other so well...but I can't see how what they just pulled off can be any good...I thought of Clannad after story at that part... |
| Front Hooks...Oh yeah... |
| loved the episode |
| If it wasn't for the ending I wouldn't like this episode at all. Seriously how can they... |
| I can't forgive Ryuuji for telling Yasuko that she's a failure, especially when was working so hard to make sure that he spends all his time concentrating on school. |

| man, this is bullshit. So he abandons his trophy wife Minorin to give sympathy marriage to some bitch who treats him like garbage. |
| Looks like feelings are finally conveyed. Awwwww |
 |
| Man what a fucking disaster... I feel sorry for Ryuuji, only because he's really stupid as Ami says. You have smart, beautiful and mature Ami (being popular etc. are just plus, she'd still the best out of bunch without that); or even sympathetic, energetic Minori; yet you refuse all of them cling and go that far for annoying immature spoiled brat who treats you like a shit. She might've improved slightly by time, but her core still remains unpleasantly same. But the most stupid and unforgivable part was where he said those words to Yasuko, he better make up with her somehow in final episode. |

| dafuq was that faceplant? get your shit together Minori! ryuuji you fucking bastard dont treat your mom like that still dont know what Ami told Minori back at christmas that made her run away and reject ryuuji.. starting to turn into a shitty ending |
~my list
| much rush. Well Taiga ending confirmed 100%. This ep was kinda confusing. |
 |
| Heartbreaking family :'(, both of them escaping and... OMG EARLY MARRIAGE? didn't they say " I love you" yet? -.- urghhhh it's so mixed feelings! I don't understand... Gonna watch the last episode soon... and what happend? |
| "Let me introduce you to my wife!" awwww :'3 |
 |
| srs... this escalated fucking quickly. |

| Minorin being Minorin in the beginning *sigh* Confessing her true love just by the way (she wasn't able to do that before) and happily telling Taiga that she wanted her to have him, saying happiness is something everyone has to find alone yet she still wants to wait for Taiga's decision? She sends Takasu after Taiga just minutes after? She managed to contradict herself in first two minutes *clap*clap* She is definitely the most inconsistent character of this show. At least we finally got to know what her dream is. I somehow understand Yasuko though, even Taiga's mother who still thinks of her as child and wants to put her into her golden cage to guard her from any pain. But both of them came very conveniently just in the moment when Taiga was preparing to confess her feelings to him. Well, not that it matter. LOL at Taiga pushing him down the bridge in the next scene while she was freaking just minute before when he was talking about wishing not being born. Though I have to say their (not)confession in the freezing water was kinda funny. The surprising part here was that he never saw his mother's parents. Was there a reason why? Not even as child or when his father died? I simply don't get it. But as much as I like this series (well, actually not much lately) I find their plain pretty childish. You can say they ARE still children and I wouldn't mind actually but they wanted to play adults all the time yet they are acting even worse. They could be kicked out of school. They made many worries for their parents. And their solution to this situation is to get married even when they don't know what that means (he is literally running himself into the same life Yasuko regrets). Why this series is getting this bad with those finishing episodes when it was so good before? Are they just rushing it? That frustration when you realize this show is rated as the best love polygon drama out there... Is there really nothing better? |
| Damn it, if only minori didn't saw taiga cyring on christmas eve.. then maybe, just maybe.. things have gone differently. as a minori fan, this episode was really painful to watch.. |
| I want Ryuuji x ami :( |
| I wanted Minori x Ryuuji so badly, even though I knew it wasn't going to happen. My feels :( |
| The asura face making his beautiful mommy cry wass so baddd and the relationship between him and taiga seemed too forced and sudden..basically japanese act like this in their relationships? No romance at all..it reminded me nagisa x tomoya who they didnt even kiss and out of the sudden "hey pappa im pregnant" |
 |
| Melodramatic family life... check. Elopement... check. |
 |
| God the cliches never stops with this show |
| Wow. I didn't expect something like this. Awesome! |
| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
Minorin acting all happy for Ryuuji, even after she confessed, and encouraging him to go for Taiga was so over dramatic... but oh well, it could have seen coming from miles. Ryuuji saying those words to his mother... that was both painful to watch and unnecessary. I mean unnecessary because why did they put that scene to begin with? Anyway, that was harsh... it was like a bullet to the heard... poor Yasu. Wait what? Getting married?? wtf is this? Come on Ryuuji...just a couple hours ago you didn't even acknowledged that you liked her. They plan to run away.... *sighs*... run. away. *facepalm* This is like some adolescent melodrama tv show or something xD Oh god Minori is crying, finally! She behaves like a human with feelings! This is good actually... it's the most natural reaction I've seen in these last episodes. Why can't I be happy for them? I mean, the anime is good, it entertained me, made me laugh, think, but... this? I don't know maaan... it's to.... fuck, I'll say it. EDGY! I don't know why this episode left me with such a bad taste...I don't know if I have any hidden frustration or hate against young stupid couples but this episode... I really disliked it. |

You laid down very good points in there. plopadop said: ^^^I feel really bad for Minori. She loses the guy she's liked for quite a while (which means all of the trouble she goes through after she starts having feelings for him seems to be wasted), she loses her best friend, and she gives away her savings that she's worked countless hours at countless jobs to get. It seems everything she really wanted got taken away from her. :\ This! Oh god... now that you made it into a list it hit me harder... damn.... Life is cruel when you are not a protagonist. Animatronix said: I"m disappointed that he went with Taiga. It's way too predictable, and running away is a cliche. The next episode is the last, so I hope there is a good ending. I'm not to dislike a series because my ship sinks but Toradora was one of those exceptions. Hell, I knew Ryuuji and Taiga were going to end up together from the very first episode but... the last episodes felt too forced. I don't know, I didn't like them, at least the parts concerning Ryuuji and Taiga. I even started hating Ami, but ended up liking her. In the beginning Minori annoyed me, but I ended up liking her (altho, her decisions are stupid in the last episodes) Taiga.. I liked her from the start but that kinda changed towards the end... I don't hate her but damn... Kitamura, I liked him but he lost relevance after his arc with Taiga and the president ended. Ryuuji... I never disliked him, he was cool but again, his decisions towards the end were very stupid. Not that almost all his decisions weren't but.. you know what I mean. |
