Ep. 20: Taiga aconseja a Ryuuji que persiga a Minori antes de que el viaje a Okinawa cambie a una excursión de esquí.

Following Ryuuji's rejection by Minori, Taiga visits a shrine while he has the flu and runs into Yuusaku. Taiga decides not to come over to Ryuuji's house anymore and tells him not to give up on her. The teacher informs her students that the field trip to Okinawa is now going to be a ski trip due to their previously booked hotel burning down. Taiga points out to Ryuuji that this would be his last chance to confirm Minori's feelings before classes are rearranged. Ryuuji catches up with Minori, who is still a bit disheartened from Christmas, and Taiga provides an opportunity for the two to start talking again. Later, Ryuuji, Minori, Yuusaku, Ami and the other students go to Taiga's apartment to discuss plans for the trip. Ryuuji and Minori talk in the kitchen, where she constantly praises Ryuuji for the way Taiga has become. She wishes that things would stay the way they were forever, while Ryuuji knows that it would not be possible, and becomes determined to confess properly. (Source: Wikipedia)
