Plus, how else is she supposed to act around him? He flat-out rejected Taiga when she confessed to him. It's fine you don't like her and find her annoying, opinions are wonderful things to have, but it's a little silly to scrutinize her behaviour like that... Especially because it's a romantic comedy, and Taiga's been virtually nothing but comedy so far. That said, my personal favorites have to be Minori, Taiga and Ryuuji. Ami is attractive, but I don't particularly care for her. ...Oh and Inko-chan is win no matter how you look at her. YEAHH. |

Just because its a romantic comedy doesnt mean a character can do whatever they want and everyone should still love them. There are other ways to be funny and still be well liked by the audience. Also, I guess I should add that I expected to end up not liking Ami that much before she made her appearance(before I knew anything about her besides the opening) so I like her for other reasons besides being the hot chick. Not that you suggested that was why people like her, I just wanted to say that. EDIT: Oh and yea, go Inko-chan. |

But yes, you have a point, which is why I added the Kitamura bit. But I still believe Taiga's behaviour towards him is supposed to be comedic. Like you said, there are different ways to be funny, like how Ryuuji is kind of a neat freak, how Minori is a walking laugh herself, and how Taiga's a spazz around Kitamura. Well, yes. Characters are more than pretty faces, and so is Ami, but to me, that's all she is... As in, that's all I like about her. She's pretty and that's all that appeals to me. But yeah, you have a very good point, she has her own qualities that make her an enjoyable character, but just not enjoyable for me. If that makes sense..? |

I did get that impression, but its not a big deal now that youve explained it. Its very possible that I misunderstood ((havent reread yet). Im operating on about 4 hours of sleep though, so I imagine that has alot to do with it. Everyone is free to like and dislike characters. I just dislike it when people refuse to acknoledge that other characters have their merits and blindly dislike a certain one. Of course yu didnt do that, quite the opposite. I try to recognize Taiga's appeal too. |

Personally, I find characters that are archetypical, and then expand outside of the archetype, far more interesting, literary-wise. NOT using archetypes is difficult and creates for hard-to-develop characters. Ami is fairly archetypical herself, in her own way. |

People need to be reminded these characters do not stand on their own. They need each other to be as interesting as they are (extreme example, but rather like the Joker and the Batman needed each other).
Ami only becomes interesting when the rest of the characters force her out of her rut and to drop her shields. The more she interacts, she evolves into a more interesting and even attractive personality. Each character in the show goes through a similar process.

Ryuji for his understanding and kind heart - Even though he is dense he tries his best for his friends.
Taiga - Although a big brat in the beginning up till now she shown alot of changes due to being with ryuji and how much its onto her now. Minorin - Airhead but funny shes kind but just have sudden hyperness and she is very loyal and truely a best friend to Taiga. Ami - The most mature of the group I suppose she can detect the object of the other 3 yet her other skills are most like Taiga herself (living alone , fast food etc) She cares for her friends in a different way.
