Toradora! was recently completed after 25 amazing episodes of wonderful character development, enjoyable humor, and excellent pacing. Sadly, many will never give this unique and interesting anime a chance because it is a romantic comedy, but I strongly encourage you to check it out anyway. I have never been a fan of the genre, but Toradora! has still placed itself among my top 3 anime of all time. The anime excells in every step of design from character development through soundtrack and pacing. So try something different. You won't regret it.

I'll check it out. My wife likes anima, but not really all of the guy centric animes. She loved Ah My Goddess (which I enjoyed too), so maybe I'll check this out for us to watch together.

ill look into it, i just finished watching Elfen Lied, which was amazing, the ending sent a shiver down my spine

Hear that NFG?

I'm still really depressed since it has ended...but I will rewatch it again in a few months and then get depressed again...Also I must say this Ryuji+Ami FTW

I would say it's my 2nd Favorite Anime of all time behind FMA and right above Special A..

It is indeed awesome, I agree with your Pro-Toradora crusade.

Hmm I'll have to check it out...

If you've noticed no one has had anything bad to say about it. So yeah, watch it!

Too late I already watched it. It was a great show, I would recommend it to any one, but Clannad even more.

Heh... it's an anime that's enjoyable from beginning to end. The last quarter of the anime is just crazy, and it's amazing how much they can pack into 25 episodes (so many things happen that I didn't know what to expect). I definitely agree with all your points.

I kinda wish they have a longer epilogue, though... I hope they release an OVA in the future for some side stories or something =p
