So much hate for Minorin... I guess I'm the only one who likes her on this forum.
The episode was a depressing one... not that it was bad... but rather than it even made me feel bad. LOL. Guess it was that well done.

Nah I'm quite fond of Minorin as well, she's quite believable in my opinion or maybe that's because I know people that share some of her character only less weird.
Can't really formulate everything that well but ohh well. Even if people aren't liking her because of her being out of it and all, she's far from out of place. Acting all weird to me feels like her way to deal with things, avoiding to become overly close with someone. She's also stated that she's not a nice person so by acting the way she does it makes her feel safe, in a way it's kinda like what Ami did pretending to be nice so people will like her only it's somewhat different in Minorins case. We've gotten plenty of glimpse of how her character is mostly when she's been serious instead of wacky.
MFauli: I disagree, while I'd admit that their wacky personality makes them an interesting couple I doubt that they feel that way about each other. So far they've only had wacky interaction with each other and nothing that actually hints at romantic feelings between them. Not to mention why would Ami ask if her feelings of guilt was gone since if she likes Kitamura as well then it'd be the other way around and she'd feel guilty instead. It's not really that obvious but back in the second ep when Taiga said there was nothing going on between her and Ryuuji Minorin didn't buy it to 100% since she suspected there was more to it.

Actually, there were a lot of situations where Ami showed that she likes Ryuuji more, and Ryuuji is about the only one in the series who knows Ami´s real self, even more than Kitamura at this point, i´d say.
Ehh you lost me there because thought we were talking about Minorin. Think most know that Ami have feelings for Ryuuji, what I meant was that there's nothing that point Minorin towards Kitamura.

Finally a more or less "normal" Minorin..
and a very good episode, too.
and it's still a open ending in my opinion.. I can't tell at this moment who will be with whom in the end. I thought Minorin was about to say "I love you Takasu-kun" when they fixed the star *hmpf*... even though I'm not rooting for a Kushieda + Takasu ending, gogo Ami... but she is a bit too passive at the moment.

What a shitty way to end a christmas themed episode. I love it.
the song is incredibly cheesy, i have to say.
and i still hate minorin. she could have told ryuuji about taiga and everything would finally come to a conclusion. now it´ll probably return to taiga making fun of ryuuji and noone has progressed even a bit.
I doubt that it's so easy... She was most likely already crying just by telling him that they can't love each other.and i still hate minorin. she could have told ryuuji about taiga and everything would finally come to a conclusion
The song was pretty retarded.
Lol @ Kuma Santa. Ami sure gets the short end of the stick. I still won't ever like Kushieda's character.
the less we see Kushieda in an episode, the more sense she makes. that has to be some sort of serious writing flaw.
Ami in dinner suit looks like an anorexic girl, while Taiga just looks like a girl playing dress-up with her mothers cloths.
speaking of cloths... is there a costume in Japan that man take the surname of their wives? that way, the R.Aisaka could fit ryuuji.
The FMP bear costume thing was really weird, and other than being a silly moment, didn't make much sense, but who cares...
and again, Kihara looked real good, maybe we can kick Minorin off the show and take Kihara into the main crew?

You know the important distinction between Batman and me? Batman is fictional. In real life, there isn't always an alternative.
I don't think they needed 19 episodes to tell us Taiga falls in Love with Ryuuji. That much was established at the beginning of the series by most posting in here. :P
I think this about sums up my thoughts on the episode.
The lack of Ami having any good screen time annoys me. She's now just reduced to an annoying conscience for Takasu, and a foreshadower of stuff to come.
I think I'm going to download the last couple of episodes and watch them after the series ended...
btw why is Kushieda so "friendly" towards Takasu now? Nothing changed between them and it should be the other way around because now she can be sure that Taiga loves Takasu after seeing her crying like that.
And yeah I have to agree that Ami is not really part of the story at all.. I hope this changes in the last episodes but I doubt that.
btw, I wonder if Yuusaku is the one who is now cooking and cleaning for Taiga

Krazy, you've got a point...
I was sure we're going to see Ami when Ryuji ran to get juice, but then she weren't there. though, I'm enjoying her friendship with Aisaka, they're pretty much kindred spirits.
Minorin never makes any sense, but as long as we hardly see her, it's fine.
also, I really miss the president. She, Ami and Kihara could make an awesome beautiful cast for the show.

So what exactly is it about Minorin that doesn't make any sense?
By the way in the last episode when they showed Minorins room did anyone think it looked really bare and had almost nothing in it?
krazy: Why wouldn't she? For one thing she's still pretty close to Taiga and in the same class as him so she'll run into him sooner or later. So what's the point of acting all awkward about it? Basically she just want things to go back to before they had the talk about ghosts and such and in order to that she acts more like she did before that as well at least to the best of what she can.

that wasn't a problem when she *thought* Taiga likes Takasu.... she avoided him all the time, just because she feared he could get closer to her and make Taiga feel lonely.krazy: Why wouldn't she?

Now, she *knows* that Taiga actually loves Takasu and she acts like the exact opposite
