Ép. 24: Ryuuji et Taiga affrontent leurs sentiments et leurs problèmes familiaux avant de décider de ne pas s'enfuir.

Ryuuji decides to help Minori go after Taiga. While running to catch up, Minori shouts that she has always liked Ryuuji but held back because of her friendship with Taiga; she also says that Taiga has to obtain her own happiness as well. Afterwards, Minori confirms Ryuuji’s love for Taiga. Later at work, Taiga finds Ryuuji waiting for her and agrees to talk to him after the shift; however, after work, Ryuuji and Taiga's mothers confront their children, and the two flee. They stop at a bridge to talk about their situations and Taiga, after telling Ryuuji that he has to live on, accidentally pushes him into the river. Ryuuji yells to Taiga his plan of running away and marrying her. Yuusaku calls up and asks them to go to Ami's house. Minori, Ami, and Yuusaku do not agree with their plans, but decide to support them. At home, Ryuuji finds that his mother has run away, leaving a note and his grandfather's watch. The next morning, Ryuuji and Taiga get on a train, but after Taiga talks about being a three-person family with Yasuko, Ryuuji decides that they will not run away. He takes Taiga to his grandparents' house, as Yasuko told him inside her note, and introduces himself as their grandson and Taiga as his bride. (Source: Wikipedia)
