The characters become very well developed from beginning to end. and I found myself wanting to learn more and more about each character in this anime. They each have their own secrets, weaknesses and very different personalities, and they all mature throughout the story.
Toradora! also has beautiful art. I especially enjoyed the different looks to all the characters, instead of them all looking overly similar.
Overall, I enjoyed this show and highly recommend it to anyone, even those that don't usually watch the romantic comedy genre. It has very relate-able characters and is not an anime to simply pass by due to its genre.
