I agree. The outburst on its own was intense, and was masterfully done by Rie, but the buildup was not there.
The novels described Taiga as using the last of her strength to rescue Ryuuji while letting herself sink, which builds up the intensity within the scene. Taiga had a cramp, had to drag Ryuuji to the end of the pool while fighting exhaustion, had to face a hostile and apathetic crowd that thought Ryuuji was swimming with her, and nearly drowned trying to save him. She finally snapped.
The anime skipped most of these, and the lack of build up, as so many people have pointed out, makes it appear random.
