.... wow, ya'll need to review the previous episodes and see who Kitamura has got his eyes on and whom he mutters compliments about.
Spoiler for Only a spoiler if you're not paying close attention to whom Kitamura gets starry eyed over.:

Taiga didn't have a choice i guess.
Shes so fierce everyone is scared of her and she only has a few friends, shes an emotional wreck when it comes it love and a clumsy idiot. You may say she brought this on herself, but then again, its not like she really wanted to, right? |

Now one thing I wonder about with Taiga is if she's thought about being Ryuuji's girlfriend. I'm wondering if this is coming later down the line or if this is a steady build-up. I'm wondering what exactly she thinks.
With tsunderes, there's usually two excuses. There's the: "He's a pervert/juvenile/dog/moron/slob" who I should not fall in love with or the "I'm so in love with Character A (Kitamura), that I can't possibly love him." Now with Taiga, I'm leaning more towards the latter but considering how dysfunctional she is, I'm wondering if there is something else or if she's just really confused. |

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.

In summary:
Taiga has feelings for Ryuuji, but feels helpless in the face of Minori and Ami. Not wanting to complicate his life, she has resorted to quietly revealing herself to Ryuuji, while at the same timesorting out her own life. Lesson learnt: Don't be to quick to judge people; they might be the most important person you may encounter. |

Taiga is a brat through and through. Her father provided a big apartment for her to live in and money to spend but she considered herself abandoned. She takes her father money and kicks him in the groin... She thinks nobody understands her but i doubt she even bother to think about others.

It's like Taiga is saying to Ryuuji: "No matter what you think, you are not allowed to like or hang out with this man at all. End of Discussion or I hit you." |
