Toradora!

On the first day of school, Ryūji discovers that he and Taiga, the meanest girl in class, share a secret: each loves the other's best friend.

Taiga's efforts to get closer to Yūsaku fail: A scheme in basketball ends with Taiga knocked out, and she drops a plate of cookies out a window.

Ryūji and Taiga spend a day helping Minori at one of her many part-time jobs, and Ryūji gets to know her better when they're locked in a storehouse.

Taiga has a photo album full of blurry pictures of Kitamura. Ryūji offers to snap some pictures of him instead.

Yūsaku's childhood friend Ami, a model, transfers to the school and immediately becomes popular with everyone but Taiga, who sees the truth about her.

Followed by a stalker, Ami hides out with Taiga and decides that she must discard her fake personality from now on.

When the school's pool opens for the summer, the gang shops for new swimsuits, and Ryūji helps Taiga with an embarrassing problem.

Ryūji tries to help Taiga win a swimming race against Ami, but when Ryūji nearly drowns, the truth about Taiga's feelings comes out.
