The ending plays out a bit different where in the light novel, Taiga ends up coming back to the school for their third year and sees Ryuuji on the first day of school, instead of him not seeing her until graduation. Ryuuji has a much stronger reaction to Yasuko leaving him, and Ami has a stronger reaction to Taiga’s leaving. The stuff with them at Ami’s house is the same but Ryuuji and Taiga decide to go to school just for the next morning before they run off. Ami, Kitamura, and Minori are out looking for the two in the light novel, and Ami sees them in the river and approches them. Some stuff is cut before they end up on the bridge, and in the light novel, Ryuuji first kisses Taiga when they’re talking on the bridge. Episode 24 aired only 9 days after this volume was released and episode 25 came out a week after that so I imagine that the anime staff were given an outline for the volume to match the contents. The anime adapts this volume in part of episode 24 and 25.

I am glad that I read this series though, and I enjoyed it.
In general, I do think that this is a very well-written high school drama romcom series but I prefer the earlier volumes when Ryuuji and Taiga were written more platnoically.
There was also quite a bit of stuff in it that wasn’t in the anime so I enjoyed reading those parts. It did focus a bit too much on the romance for my personal taste but I liked that it wasn’t the sole focus of the volume. I appreciated that this volume didn’t focus entirely on the romance between Ryuuji and Taiga, and that we also got a lot of good stuff with Yasuko and Ami as well. This is a solid conclusion to the series and I think fans of it will be very satisfied by how it ends. It picks up immediately after where the next volume left off, with Taiga and Ryuuji running away from their mums. This is the final volume in the main series, but there is one more Spin-off volume after this. Please check it out if you are interested in the series. Seas Entertainment has published this series in English so
