Еп. 18: Друзі допомагають з підготовкою до Різдва, тоді як Таїґа знаходить надію, а Мінорі шкодує про те, що зламала зірку на ялинці.

Everyone is helping with the Christmas party. While Ryuji's friends keep giving Yuusaku and Taiga some alone time, Ami compares Ryuuji's relationship with Taiga as akin to a father/daughter relationship, and tells him he should stop it soon. After the final exam, Ryuuji helps Taiga send presents to her parents and some lonely children. Taiga recalls when she got to meet Santa, which despite possibly being a dream, gives her hope that someone is always watching over her. Everyone helps put together an artificial Christmas tree topped with a glass star that Taiga brought. Everyone is pleased with their efforts and awed by the sight of the tree lit up; however, a stray softball crashes through the gym window and knocks over the tree, smashing the star. This sends Minori into deep regret and she forces it upon herself to fix the broken star; despite her protests, Ryuuji helps her out. The baseball club apologizes and Minori leaves, still declining Ryuuji's offer of going to the party as she feels she would not be welcome after the accident. Despite hearing that, Ryuuji promises her that he will wait for her. (Source: Wikipedia)
