I really loved this anime, I think this is the best one. But the final wasn't really cool, I REALLY suggest Toradora. The firsts episodes are a bit hard to understand, but after somes eps, you'll get into the anime. You should watch it

Ich habe noch nie eine so schöne Serie gesehen die mich so tief berührt hat. Ich kann wirklich jeden empfehlen Toradora zu schauen um hoffentlich das selbe Gefühl zu bekommen. Ubd dies schrieb ein Mann mit dem Geburtsjahr 1984. Viel Spaß

To be honest, this is likely one of my favorite slice of life animes.

Character development is just phenomenal. Very rare that I have gotton so attached to characters. The two leads are great.

For a romance anime, the show really leaves you guessing untill the end who ends up with who. Fantastic build up! The ending could have been a bit better, but to be fair,after thinking deeply on it, it was fitting and fit the characters and the central theme. (Still, a storybook ending would have been nice, even as an OVA.)

Overall:
Toradora is a heart warming experience. Kept me on the edge of my seat (for a romance story, that's quite an achievement.) If you are only going to watch one slice of life anime, make it this one.… Expand

I was recommended to watch this by a friend, and the first few episodes were just strange to watch until I started getting into the show more, then I started to understand it more and appreciate it. The main characters are usually quite entertaining and are quite memorable due to their personalities, as for example Taiga is very controlling to the protagonist and often hurts him quite badly, usually its quite funny too. The reason this series lost some marks with me was the fact of it seeming to just loop around with some episodes, where revelations seem to amount to nothing and are revealed again later on then seem to land with the rest of the cast, which seemed like a strange direction to go in. The Anime seems to end rather abruptly in Season Two and just seems to stop instead of concluding the events and makes it feel like there is an episode missing, perhaps this will be fixed with another season or OVA, but since its been a while from release I'm starting to lose hope. (In addition, I did hear that there was a visual novel which elaborated on the ending and went further, but due to this not being translated into English, I do not know for sure.) Overall this is a very fun Anime if you stick with it for a few episodes until you grasp what is going on and after that it is a very fun Anime to watch, although a proper ending episode would be nice! =P… Expand
