From a purely anime stand-alone storytelling vantage - this was quite interesting and entertaining. Even before the first episode is over, the attentive viewer understands that Taiga may be crusty on the outside but creamy on the inside. Ryuuji follows in the more delightful path of male leads like the leads from REC, Moon Phase, SHnY, and such.

I understand the novels go into quite a lot more depth and less time compression and that the manga tends to follow the novel a bit more - so I figure those will make good reads after the series is well underway.
