| HNNNNNNNNNNGH I see why Taiga won Saimoe~ |
| Yea Taiga asking for more during the kiss is awesome~ The show is really good at character developments^^ Btw random question, how tall is Taiga? When she stands beside Ryuji she seems sooo short xD |
      |
| well just by looking at this post i pray that we will force them to make a 2nd SEASON! 10/10 one of my top animes |
| It was a really awesome ending :D |

Every episode was worth looking forward to, I thoroughly enjoyed every single one. Such an entertaining anime with great music. i tried looking for one and couldent find one. so i made one myself, its not the best of work, considering ive never made a gif b4, and im sure i made it in the hardest way possible LOL. when viewed in internet explorer it lags like hell, at least it did for me, but works fine in firefox~ here it is: |
| That's one humongous gif. The ending was like them "sitting on the fence" endings. But this can be good sometimes. Makes me hope that there would be a new season or something. |
| あらあら。。。＾＾ |
| Better then all anime voiced by Kugimiya... All of those weren't expressing their feelings but here Taiga broke that tsundere loli border for Kugimiya! This anime is one of my favourites! Taiga is just so moe ♥  Toradora is great anime... at first when it started airing I didn't have MAL so I haven't watched anime that got aired but now I am glad I finally enjoyed it... MAN THIS WAS GOOD. It will keep me fuzzy and I will cry as I remember for a week or more. Best comedy romance I don't think I will see better in next 10 years or ever! Their first kiss... man Taiga just asked for more, that I almost ended up kissing monitor.  Now gotta back to life like Yuki-sensei says, things don't end up as u wanted, but still I am just fine with watching anime so I will stick with it, I am still young so I hope that something like this happens to me, some sweet love, not how is these days... :333333 |

| Very good series over all. Really enjoyed it. |
| Finished it today. Great romantic comedy, probably the best. I'm so sad cause it's finished. Hope there will be a sequel... 9.5/10 |
 |
| First romance anime I enjoyed so much... I really like it.. Just some weird ending. I didn't understand it that much. n_n |
 |
| Quite good romance/comedy. Pros: -Very good character development (when most of the time there isn't any). -Very good flow -Top notch animation and voice acting. -The best kisses I've seen in the genre. Cons: -Sometimes too predictable. -NO MINORIN ENDING? -Sometimes it doesn't make sense (what happens between episodes 24 and 25?) -Still has some similarities and clichés of the genre (sucks watching the same shit in different animes). Overall a very enjoyable anime, but of course not the masterpiece people think it is. 7/10 |
| Toradora! is one of the best romance comedy anime out there. In the humour and character development stakes, I believe only Lovely Complex has as much growth in the characters. Besides I love Taiga anyway she is one of the best Tsunderes in the history of anime. |
 |
The regular ending was OK but I think I liked the alternate ending much better. It's way more realistic considering Taiga's personality: |
| ^ Oh dear O.O |
| Early episodes weren't that great, but that ending made it awesome. :D 10/10 |
| decent ending but Toradora gets a 9/10 because of the ending I WANTED MY MINORIN OR AMIN ENDING >:O Please be like Clannad and make another world OVA episodes with Ryuuji choosing Minorin/Amin instead!!! so -1 because no minorin or amin >:) |
 |
| Very fitting ending, I was tense for the whole episode. Overall... it wasn't perfect anime, but it was sure enjoyable. 9/10 I need a sequel or I'll be very sad panda. |
 |
| i dont know how to explain this anime anymore it was really dull in the middle and jampacked in the end i was about to rank it a 6 or somethign if the ending didnt pick up but now i want to rate it almost 9 not bad overall |
 |
| A truly amazing anime, with alot of mature plot twists, and the last ep kept you guessing the whole way through. 10/10 |
| Hit the right spot and made me feel for the characters. I've laughed with them, I've cried with them and now that it's over I'm dearly going to miss them. 10/10 |
 |
| The ending wasn't bad at all... but i somehow expected more... I would like to have seen more of Minorin & co.; but i think it's purpose was achieved: "life goes on" (... if you like it or not) Great anime!!!! |

| OMFG Taiga is so kawaii. When they were kissing, oh man that was so cute. And it felt so natural too, not like a forced kiss or anything. They were like the perfect couple. I gotta admit I was kind of pissed off when she left Ryuuji to live with her mom. Especially since she said she wasn't going to run away anymore. But right after I finally understood. She wasn't going to run away from her family anymore. Good decision. :D "I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-Inko Chan!" *drops cellphone* lul Oh man i love the ending. Taigas tsundere was so appropriate :] But i love how the first real thing he says to her is "I love you" cuz he never got to say it. Its like he's been holding it in this whole year. Oh mannn that was a really good anime. Its a 10/10 in my book. Gahhh I love it so much :DDDDDDD |
| wow.... i think funnymrbunny just literally summed up everything i wanted to say. i would only be repeating the now obvious ;) |
| Absolutely fantastic series. 10/10 One of the best anime I've ever seen before. |
 |
| I really, really like this series. I just wished it would show them in the future. :'( |

| i LOVED the ending. but, something confused me and i need it explained... after the credits, it's the graduaction, right? and lowerclassmen are talking about how they were going to miss the seniors and one kid says something about how they won all those festivals because of a student who went to their school last year. so, i was thinking, woah! taigas been gone for a whole year? but then one kid said, "She (the palmtop tiger) is Takasu-sempai's girlfriend." so, if they're saying that taiga is ryujis girlfriend, then she couldnt have been away for a year. so, im guessing she hasnt been away, she just never went back to school. but if i believe that, i wonder why she head-butted him after he said i love you. im just soooo confused! can anyone explain it simply and clearly? |

| Best. Romance. Ever. |

The fact is that Taiga did leave that school to live with her mom so she never came back(she did during the seniors graduation) because she said that she would stop running away from her parents. Rumors must've spread that Taiga is Ryuji's girlfriend but could not see her because she left. There are many reasons why she head-butted Ryuji... 1. Ryuji held on to promise to say he loves Taiga all this time Taiga left. 2. Taiga's tsundereness kicked in and head-butted him XD 3. Taiga's rational thinking believes that it was inappropriate at the time lol. Lol these are just a few of the times when it is a complete necessity to watch the ending credits of the last epsiode. Great, simple, heartwarming, and a cute way to finish the series. 9.5/10 or 11 :D |

| I FUCKING LOVE THIS ANIME! :3 Someone please recommend me more stuff like this! :D |
| Very satisfying conclusion to a decent anime series, tying up most if not all the loose ends. To be honest, I wouldn't have minded if Ryuji ended up with either Minori or Ami instead, but Taiga is fine I guess. Also, that Christmas song ("Holy Night"?) sung by Ami and Taiga a few episodes back was quite catchy and I seem to have developed quite a liking for it. Anyone else think so too? |
| Enjoyed this series a lot. Would have liked a little more at the end (words I find myself saying at the end of almost every romance anime I've seen) but still one of the best I've watched. I was expecting a good show, as it has been recommended everywhere, but I wasn't expecting to get sucked in as fast as I did. |

| One of the best romance comedies around. Taiga is just so moe when embarrassed <3 |
| Aw this was really touching. Great series overall... much love |
| wow I was going to go crazy when I saw the credits come up but seeing the ending was worth it haha 9.75/10. Any hope for OVAs where Ryuji ends up with the other girls? |
 Do you like or wish for the Otonashi X Tachibana Kanade pairing from Angel Beats? Or just love both characters? Then Join the club ^^:The Otonashi X Tachibana Kanade Club     |
| awwwwwwwwwww. I would miss this series. AMI DAISUKI. ♥ |
| Urgh, disappointing ending. I really expected more from this anime. I thoroughly enjoyed it except for a few tedious bits throughout. The ending, however, killed it for me. They spent 24 episodes building up Ryuuji and Taiga's relationship and on the last episode they're like "Nah, fuck you, we're not going to give you a proper ending we'll just give you a half-assed one!" 1-23: 9 24-25: 7. I'll be nice and keep it an 8. |

| Cried. I couldn't really understand the last episode, nontheless it was cute and it simply connected with my heart ;_; Watched all the anime in 2 days, it was just THAT good. I can't believe it's over.. next time I wake up in the morning I will be like "Time to watch some Taradora! .. oh wait.. *cry*" |
| Wow, awesome (and expected) ending to a brillant series. You can't call a series Tiger x Dragon (Toradora) and not have an ending with the the Tiger and the Dragon lol, so I'm not really sure why the Ryuji x Minori and the Ryuji and Ami people are pissed off. Defintely gonna have to rewatch this sometime. The scene in the bedroom was one of, if not the best in the series. Apart from that, the rest of the episode was pretty standard as far as last episodes go. I agree with the other people; episodes 23-25 were a bit rushed, but yea thats what you'd come to expect now with anime in this genre. The chemistry between Ryuji and Taiga, and the unique kind of relationship they shared through the show was really refreshing from your usual relationship the main characters share in school based romance series. This defintely made it stand above other shows, thats for sure. Loved the whole Tiger x Dragon thing aswell. Needless to say this anime is right up there with Clannad and co and easily warrants at least a 9/10. I'd give it a 9.5/10 if I could but I can't so overall a 9/10 from me. (The last few episodes kind of screwed up the 10/10 for me). |

| I didnt like anime . I'm bored,comedy wasnt good. The subject is quite simple anime, classic tsundere characters,end of a very simple,Taiga reminds of Louise ans Shana. and anime reminds of Lovely Complex. op / ed music was very beautiful,character design was good, nice voice seiyuu and always Kugumiya Rie pehhhh İf ı didnt watch romatic film I'd give a high score 7/10^^ |

| Perfect story. perfect ending. perfect character/story development. perfect music. perfect character design. 10/10 + favorite (isn't enough *-*) |
| I want a 2nd series T_T C'mon Yuyuko, write a sequel *.* |
 |
| I still can't get over how Takasu and Minorin didn't end up together T__T She's my favorite character ): |
 |
| I loved the kiss scene <3 You'd usually get a quick kiss in such an anime [or none at all],so i wasn't expecting her to keep asking for more and for the kisses to be more and more passionate... kyaaa~ This series was awesome <3 10/10 |
 |
| Now, I get why Taiga left to see her family near the end (she wasn't running anymore) but the fact that she was separated from Ryuuji for almost 1 year kinda pissed me off! I would have liked for them to have been together but... oh well. It was a nice ending overall I guess. Also I disagree that the Tsundere moment was missplaced. It's Taiga-ness for you :P But yes, ending with a kiss would have been awesome. But I'm still a bit "hurt" that they were separated for a year. But I guess now they will live happily ever after, so I'm happy! Overall: 9/10 [edit]: decided to go for 9 overall instead of 10... maybe I'll change my mind later. |

| This anime started off great, but the ending was really meh. Actually the last few episodes were really shite. I will rate it 7/10 'cause of the start, the ending ruined it for me. Also, why o why, does the main guy always end up with the girl he meets first, it's getting so predictable. :( |
