Toradora!

The Toradora! watch order is 25 episodes with one OVA, the Bento Battle OVA, slotting neatly between Episode 13 and Episode 14, laid out here in the correct chronological order. Start at Episode 1 and watch through Episode 13, then view the Bento Battle OVA before continuing with Episodes 14-25. Placing the OVA at that midpoint matches its lighthearted, episodic tone to where it best fits Ryuuji and Taiga's story, though it is a bonus rather than essential to the main romance. If you prefer, you can watch all 25 episodes straight through and catch the OVA afterward, since it will not spoil anything, but the order above is the recommended path. This is everything J.C.Staff's beloved rom-com released, and knowing where to start and where the OVA lands means you get the complete experience without wondering what you missed.
