Not to say I don't love Minorin, but it took two episodes for me to love Taiga and Ryuuji's relationship. Regardless of them being just friends or as a couple, it's kind of what drives the plot. :roll: Ami would be tolerable if it weren't for her part-time role served as a fanservice character. I can't stand her personality, and she was worse than usual in the last episode.

Well I don't really Ami since she's just a walking plot device, all she oes is give advice to Ryuuji to keep things moving forward.

Really? She made a rather serious play for Ryuuji herself. Ami is more aware of the tensions at work than the others, and has been for a long time - and she knows that these same tensions are enough to rip apart the circle of friends she's found. She wants to resolve things in a way that give her a chance to keep some of these friends after the dust settles. She's been trying to bring the fever to a head in hopes that the patient will survive.

But it was obvious from the start that there was zero chance of the two getting together.

That doesn't change the fact that Ami began as the most ridiculous character and is now standing as the most logical character.Minorin and Taiga are just too engrossed in their world,especially Minorin...
The ending is certain a Taiga x Ryuji relationship but I really hope they plan it out well....

I agree, I hope they don't just shove the 2 together.

Epic proposal is epic... Seriously don't mind the 40 or below degrees water your sitting in. All that matters is the girl infront of you... OH! and your cell phone of course.

If they remain quiet under such misconceptions, it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to public liberty. What country can preserve its liberties, if it's rulers are not warned [...] that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants."-Thomas Jefferson
