| to EMORIN and I quote this from Ami.. "Shut up" |
 |
| Ryuuji, I hate you for saying those words to your own mother, you suck. |
 |
| Looks like I'm not the only one who reacted to what Ryuuji said to his mother. He acted like the worst brat ever and I felt like slapping the shit out of him. WTF were the writers thinking here? "Let's make the male MC a dislikeable brat"? ?!? Was starting to root for Minorin as well, because of how kind and unselfish she is. But the series is too predictable that way, Taiga and Ryuuji was obviously always meant to happen. Honestly this episode felt like the worst one so far... |

 |
| I dunno, I didn't like Minori in the beginning, too happy and hyper to the point of annoying. I felt bad for her in the end, and she deserved better than what she got, but I always wanted Ryuugi and Tiaga. I guess I'm pretty easy for the writers to manipulate. The end was weird and felt rushed. Alot of things happened unnaturally and out of the blue. They probably needed about 3 more episodes to wrap this up in a better way than they did. I really do hate the way it ended though, I would have enjoyed more time with Ryuugi and Tiaga after all their trials to see them in a more relaxed and complete state. |
 |
 Was watching through it again and noticed something at 9:37. |
| Wow, what an episode! And there is only one more left. I felt really bad for Yasu, she truly cares for both Ryugi and Taiga, hopefully it'll end well for them all. Off to the finale! |

Honestly this episode felt like the worst one so far... well she kind of deserved it cause she was acting dumb over working & stuff so i get why he was mad at her if he would have let it slide, if he would have ignored her mothers stupidity (thinking she can handle it alone) then i would have called him heartless bastard, letting her over work with no care at all, its almost as good as letting ur mother commit suicide front of ur eyes |

| Are they trying to teach teenagers to run away with their girlfriend wtf. |
| Ami and Minori are definitely my two favorites from this show, so I'm glad they are close now. |
| The Ryuuji and Taiga sections were quite rushed and lacked the emotion of their realisation moments from previous episodes. Minori and Ami had some much needed focus though. It does seem at the moment like Minori has just lost a whole lot - her best friend, her crush, and apparently her savings. But I totally believe what she said about having a goal and being so determined to pursue it. So whatever she felt in that moment is unlikely to last long and will probably be very unimportant to her in the future. Also I'm pretty sure she's going to get her savings and friendship with Taiga back Ami's main interest has always seemed to be having someone else besides Kitamura who accepts her for who she is. Ryuuji was able to do that, and never really reacted much to her BS, also Ami and Taiga seemed to understand each other quite well after a while. So getting closer with Minori is definitely a good thing for her, because they've both seen each other at their worst and have no need to put on any kind of act for each other. Also Ami's comments about being too young to get philosophical were quite significant, seems like she was saying for herself and Minori at least, this was just some high school relationship drama that doesn't need to be a big deal, and they should stop being so serious about everything now it's had some kind of resolution Anyways, fully expecting the MC's to be back at home by the end of the next episode. Can't have a high school based drama without some kind of graduation stuffs in at the end |
| Wow such a terrible episode, hated it from start to finish. The beginning with Minorin felt so cheesy and out of place, the confession scene was done terribly and eloping? Seriously? Hopefully they will fix it in the last episode, really liked this show until now. |
 |
| Taiga: Hey Ryuuji, since we're eloping, I got you an adult-type snack. Ryuuji: Taiga, why are you spreading your legs? Taiga: ;) |

| "No, son, you may not have your body pillow at the dinner table!" |
| Hmmm, this episode feels like an ending lol. Anyway, I think that it's Minori fault. Worst character and plot device in the entire show. lol Yacchan abandoned his son. |

CrazyRomance said: 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" about nagisa and tomoya they were shy as f, u just dont get romance of the extreme shy about ryu and taiga it was not forced at all, but they were forced to face the truth by their friends, they were in denial before HumbertoZero said: 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. well yatsu neede to hear the truth, awry thing he said to yatsu wad the truth, she is selfish, she never considered how he feels about taking huge burden on herself so he could go to collage so mush guilt that at times he wishes that he was never born he did acknowledged that he loves her (pay more attention) he just decided to live it like it is cause taiga pretended that what she ssid on skee tripp never happened so he decided to do the same otakujitsu13 said: ryuji was so stupid you should never treat your own mother like that! LargeRambo said: otakujitsu13 said: ryuji was so stupid you should never treat your own mother like that! yeah, i hated that part! everything asbout ryuji in this episode is dope except for when he is a dick to his mom well yatsu neede to hear the truth, awry thing he said to yatsu wad the truth, she is selfish, she never considered how he feels about taking huge burden on herself so he could go to collage so mush guilt that at times he wishes that he was never born |

| The show didn't go with the pairing I wanted it to go with, hence I declare it terrible and an enemy of mine. |
 |
| Oh come on... did they really just give me that crap that Minorin actually likes Ryuuji? Did she give him to Taiga out of pity or what? Because she surely could have had him at any time she wanted. What a shitty friend, she's even worse than I thought. Ryuuji sucks as well for the shit he pulled with his mum there... |
| I didn't really like this episode. One of the biggest reasons was that I didn't like the Ryuuji x Taiga pairing, especially how it was brought about. It makes no sense for me for Minorin and Ami to go around not acting on their feelings, and Minoring acting AGAINST her feelings because of some misguided belief that that was the right thing to do. Ryuuji and Taiga were by no means an official couple, and Minorin basically sort of forced Ryuuji and Taiga to end up together without considering Ryuuji's feelings. What I'm trying to say is, it feels like Ryuuji's own feelings weren't taken into account, especially early in the arc. And I really dislike where this is headed. First, that bit where Ryuuji just went all out on Ya-chan. I couldn't sympathise with Ryuuji there at all. After all, Ya-chan just wants a better life for Ryuuji, better than the one she had. I don't feel like it's completely Ya-chan trying to force her own failures on him, but more than she has regrets about her life that she hopes Ryuuji won't face, and Ryuuji can't seem to understand that. I really hated Ryuuji there, because Ya-chan didn't deserve it. Second, the whole eloping thing. Running away? Everything seems like such a rash decision. Even if Ryuuji and Taiga are now in love, suddenly throwing everything away to get married seems ridiculous. The closer we get to the ending, the less I like this series. I hope the ending is at least decent. |
 |
| Wow, that was a meaninglessly and ridiculously rushed turn of events. Why the hell would Ryuuji instantly decide to elope just because he had a brief trivial fight with his mother? And judging from what we have seen of her, she'd probably break down without her son around, he should have known better. |
| OMG that's a painful trip by Minori but she got up at light speed. Annnd, that's a pretty long intro. Enjoyed the little moments and jokes they put in to release some tension between Taiga and Ryuji. Running away isn't a good idea, so I'm happy that Ryuji shows a new way of doing (betrayed) to Taiga in the end :D. I didn't felt overwhelmed by how fast the storyline is moving in this episode. So the last episode is about Taiga dealing with her mom? Do not expect Yasuko to appear in the last one. I hope they return back to school. |

| Holy shit they're so stupid |
| Around the gif~ "It's a big mistake to think you're the only one who can turn into a car" - Shiori Takatsuki |
| "Crying is a nosebleed from the heart." I don't know if that's poetic or stupid. Either way, I'm stealing it. For the rest, though... WHAT. IS. GOING. ON. This is going wayyyyyyyyyy too fast, and absolute nonsense is happening. I don't even know what to say other than that. Oh yes, one thing : I actually kinda misunderstood what Minori meant about not depending on anyone when it comes to happiness. She just meant that people don't have to let others decide for them what's best for them, which I agree with (though this show is very hypocrite on that level). But is letting her friend run away really the best thing to do ? I mean, if Taiga told her she wanted to jump from the window, would have she actually let her do so because that's what she wants ? That's quite a twisted logic. And the worst thing is that Kitamura and Ami (who's still best girl despite this issue) actually agree ?! This show has such weird morals... Another thing : why is Minori always reverting back to her silly facade ? Why is the show allowing that to happen ? She should stop that by now, it's not healthy for her and she knows it, and the show does too. Oh, and one last little thing : I didn't know a show could be both incredibly naive and incredibly mean-spirited. But apparently, it can. |

| What the fuck? My opinion on this anime turns 180 degrees again , can you just keep it the same without so much drama and stupidity? |
| I hate everyone equally |
| I guess I return my opinion that this anime is a low quality cheap soap opera. Some characters turned out pretty good , but that's it. |
| I hate everyone equally |

| Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes!!!! Pog, I can’t wait until the last episode. |
 |
| Wow I did not like this episode at all. What a letdown. How is everyone except Ami so damn immature. Makes no sense to runaway over something that can be talked over with again. Guess it’s why Takasu says even when he’s 18 he’s not an adult cus he knows it wasn’t a grownup thing. I seriously hope next episode has an apology and make up part and a good ending. |

| Right from the start, you can feel the tension and drama between the two's hardships Their conversation on the bridge was cute, Taiga despite telling Ryuuji not to disregard his life just pushed him off the bridge lol she just instantly disregarded that line and she jumped off herself And they decided to run away on their own to Ryuuji's grandparents' house and him actually introducing Taiga as his wife was cute. |
  |
| I was looking forward to the eventual emotional outburst episode, but this felt really rushed? I guess it made sense that they were making all these decisions so quickly since they're nervous kids, but I was hoping for more development? They didn't even confess and they're ready to run away and get married? I mean you could make the argument that they both already know how the other feels, but it feels sort of off considering that Ryu didn't really have a moment for him to really develop his feelings-- Minori was just like "I'm not letting myself get with you because I'm weird and I wanna distract myself from feelings" and he's like "Oh okay then yeah ig I'll go with Taiga" |
| I feel so bad for ya-chan. Ryuuji is a fucking idiot. I never liked this takasu x taiga pairing although it was known from the very first episode. Damn, my liking for this show went downward along with time. Edit : I take back everything I said. |

| Running away or getting away is fun but it doesn't really do much. But damn this whole living with grandparents reminded me of them incest pronz lolz. |
