That's why I wrote "Toradora! was written. Nowadays, everyone would have a smart phone and Okawa would be making black history with fatal mis-postings.

Tatsuyuki Nagai / Director
Congratulations on your 15th anniversary.
The reason I am still able to do this job is certainly because of my involvement in this work. I cannot thank Mr. Takemiya enough for entrusting me with such an important work when I was nothing more than what I am now. I must have been very anxious at the time... During the production, I was always falling down seven times a day trying to figure out how to convey the charm of the characters. We were blessed with a great staff, and it was a really good experience for us to be able to keep on struggling until the final episode!
Thank you "Toradora!

Mari Okada / scenario writer
Toradora! Congratulations on your 15th anniversary. The day Takemiya-sensei and I talked in a cab on our way to somewhere, saying "This is the kind of person I want to be in the future." ...... We were already in our 30s, but we were as young as Ryuji Taiga and the others. Even now, in my mid-forties, I still sing "Preparade" when I go to karaoke and mutter Minorin's lines when I eat french fries. I'm going to continue to love it!
I'm going to keep on loving it. ......

 April, when the cherry blossoms are dancing. Second year in high school. A new class. Ryuji Takasu, a normal kid with bad eyesight, meets Taiga Osaka, a tiny but ferocious and feared "Hand-Riding Tiger". Then he discovers a secret she shouldn't know...
 This is the beginning of a love battle between a dragon and a tiger!
The love between this somewhat strange group is not going to go smoothly, as it also involves Minori Kushieda, a very fast-paced girl who is always smiling, and Yusaku Kitamura, the head of the glasses committee, who is both literate and diligent and honest, but also a little off...?
 A super IJN romantic comedy by Takemiya Yuko and Yasu!
