Toradora! Ep. 8 - SimsHsia - Thu Nov 27 2008 Episode 8: For Whose Sake
Recap from last time: It's the summertime, all students are now in their summer uniforms, and the school's pool is open for the season. There's only one problem: Taiga doesn't like the pool because of her physique. Ryuuji helps her out by creating pads that she can insert into her swimming suit. After an argument between Taiga and Ami, Minorin suggests they should do a sports competition rather than fighting over it. Key plot points:
Episode thoughts: Alright, so the first semester of Ryuuji's 2nd year in high school has come to an end for summer vacation. The scene where Taiga refuses to let anyone touch Ryuuji reminds me of the scene in CLANNAD. It was touching, but also a surprise. Who knew that Taiga cared so much! Ah, but she's back to her old self after the incident. Seeing as how Taiga and Ryuuji spend so much time together, instead of planning to getting to spend time with their potential love interests, it is expected that both of them will be a "couple", but that probably won't happen until perhaps the very end. Also, at the pool scene, one of the students there sounded like Taku from Chäos;Head, the one with the quivering voice after Ami shows everyone her bikini. Ah well, as a friend said, "All male characters in anime sound the same", and that is, in a way, true. EDIT: I just noticed this, first row, right picture of Minorin. Ha! She drew her pupils on her eyelids, she's actually sleeping during math class. Oh Minorin, your antics never cease to amaze. With that said, next episode, To the Beach with You, summer vacation GET! Off to Ami's villa, and it sounds like Ryuuji is excited to spend some time with Minorin, and Taiga...well...she's in her usual way with Yuusaku. |
