Taiga isn't being typical tsundere in the anime.... instead of a huge epiphany, she's having all these little moments starting with the smile at the end of episode 2. The Villa adventure seems to have been a significant turning point in her realization. Really listen to the discussion during the footrub scene and the tonal nuances. Also note the rather plaintive and worried way she runs to catch up with Ryuuji at the end of the adventure.
She still has her crush on Kitamura... but oh those nagging doubts and dreams.
Problem is now, Ryuuji's been rolling like a steamroller -- and those conversations with Minorin and Ami at the villa have made him thoughtful and moved him a bit closer to Minorin and Ami -- which means little tugs on the thread between him and Taiga that he's not noticed. She has.
