Did anyone else notice that when Taiga goes to check on the noise coming from her bedroom she grips Ryuuji's scarf as if to reassure herself? |

I really liked this episode, like someone else mentioned earlier the whole scene with Taiga being spun around by Santa was so adorable. There's still.. 6 more episodes to go, and I can't wait to see how this wraps up. This may easily fall under one of my top 5 of all time. |

Subs are out for anyone who has been waiting patiently. They just came out 40min ago for me , have fun watching - and yes Darknemo everyone does indeed have their own tastes, I respect that statement, and at the same time the post "^" isn't escalating anything as well.

The best EP so far for me, the romance section just hits bottom with 3 "rejections" (Taiga->Ryuuji, Ryuuji->Taiga, Minorin->Ryuuji) , it can only goes up for them from now on...
... i hope... well there is still Amy and Kitamura... can't wait to see how this all will resolve or even if they will resolve... open ending style or "reset" ending(please no spoiler from the novels ) |

Ami fan/shipper here.
Gawd. Sigh. Seems like there's no other choice but to just swallow everything I just watched. She's still the best of the bunch for me (Minorin is WEIRD, Taiga is.......I don't like loli's), But they need to flush out Taiga's character more other than her being too dependent on Ryuuji though. She'd to be clingy if that happens. Props to Ryuuji if he can take that. |

Lol, I just want to clarify that those whom are reading this thread. Feel no sense of hostility when coming here, I think the clarification was made in the above statement. He is right after all, we just sit and watch (to look at our favorite characters of Toradora play out their acts corresponding to their personalities). I mean it's not like we can go into the little picture boxes of our society and change the anime's story line, unless you stalk the mangaka lolol to change your favorite character's outcome.

Here's my own impressions regarding the episode. I hope you'd enjoy reading and comment afterward.
Toradora 19: joy to the world I'm a fan of Ami. Despite Taiga's change, I still like Ami more, although I've already accepted the long-foregone conclusion. Ultimately, let's just hope for an Amidora ~ After Story.

Justin Kim, I think it is a big question - what do you think a creation is?
Is creation only a creation when you word to word understand what author meant, or is it a creation when you interpretate based on your own life experience? In my opinion, creation has to make other to create - to think, to imagine, to interpretate (that's also a creation). Thats why there cannot be two same Toradora's in this world. Of course, some others would say that it is disrespectful to author - you have to mimic what author said, without trying to think on your own. Thats why arguments like this arise. I think all of the interpretations be they based on shipping or not, have their own right as it is simply their own creation. Other people may say that it is wrong and that no 'clouded judgments' are allowed, and the only unclouded judgment of the author is right. Depends on your stance really. |

LOLOL I've voiced out something similar in the Macross forums at the height of the shipping wars over there. I've pointed out how Macross is about music, peace and love (and the mech battles are the antithesis), so all the flaming and hating was just disappointing. What I got was some ridicule and "welcome to teh internets LOL." So yeah. (They say it's called "Concern Trolling" by the way.)

Really liked the episode. But it's the same thing with Toradora all the time with me:
Kitamura/Minorin acts annoying with their two-faced happiness, Taiga acts insanely moody or moody underneath her exterior, After like 10 minutes, something genuinely emotional happens. It's been like that for like 10 straight episodes, I swear. Maybe even more than that. Anyway, the way Ryuuji pretended as Santa was pretty nice and I nearly had a few teardrops from that scene. Though if you think about it, the way he does it is just very random. So he picks up a suit from someone? And switches suits? HUH? |

Just watch this episode :
Wow Christmas was great . Taiga and Ami was cute , theirs songs too . but Kitamura's clothes Ryuji was like a yakuza XD (his father ) Finally Minorin didn't come in the party . Poor Ami Ryuji didn't listen what she said before ... The great part was Santa's part ! It was nice , I though Taiga really believe it was Santa ^^ Ryuji x Taiga moments and Yes , Taiga finally realize who was the one when she can rely on . well now she didn't want to lost Ryuji , it was sad to see her crying and screaming . Minorin saw her and now understand that Taiga love him . so its why she rejected Ryuji and acting like that , she had the feelings that Taiga feels somethings to Ryuji . So now we can cross out Minorin x Ryuji , and 6 episodes left also Ami x Ryuji too . Ryuji didn't show interest for her its finish . With this episode i can agree with Taiga x Ryuji . Next episode : it seems Taiga will say something to Taiga , she'll bow to him so i think she excuse and move forward so Ryuji is in her mind now . ( its what i think maybe i'm wrong ) For the Santa' suits yeah you saw it in 8:00 mn ! |

Watching this episode made me realize Toradora! is jus like True Tears.
