AMV - Rough Love (Grow a Pear) - Toradora!

Description from l33tmeatwad:
Well my third AMV and it won Best Romance at the Anime Boston 2011 AMV Contest and Best Comedy at the Animazement 14 AMV Contest. After hearing this song, Toradora! immediately came to mind and I decided to attempt and make a Comedy/Romance AMV. A lot of Toradora! AMVs tend to focus heavily on the romance aspect, so I wanted to make a video that had a good balance of comedy and romance to reflect how the show presents itself. I would like to give a special thanks to Malakalam and snapxynith for quality checking and giving suggestions as well as everyone at Anime Boston who voted!

I saw this at Anime Boston and i DIED laughing. I think it was perfect and different from all the sappy romance amvs. The song fit Taiga and Ryuji PERFECTLY! and OF COURSE i voted for this! I'm glad it won but not surprised lol at the viewing, all the people around me were laughing hysterically and at the end when he kissed her- EVERYONE went AWWWW in unison.. Idk if it was everyone there, but it was everyone around me, including me lol :D It was PERFECT!! :D

@LawlzxSmile i bet you already know the answer by now but if not its the last one(ep 25)

[kyubiiofrage]

@LawlzxSmile I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say its prolly the last episode. Been a while since I've seen it, but I'm pretty sure its either then or the second to last ep.
