Toradora! Season 1 Episode 9

You Shall Go to the Sea

After a horrible dream that Ryūji and Taiga both share, Taiga decides to create a plan to avoid the reality of being married to a begging Ryūji (as that was the dream they shared), hold a badminton contest against Ryūji to see who will "support the other side." Ryūji wins and Taiga agrees to help him with a plan to get Minori closer to Ryūji by scaring her. The two arrive at the train station to meet Minori and Yūsaku attracting a lot of attention, doing exercises. The two convince Ryūji and Taiga to join in, driving Ami away in fear of being seen with such weird people. They finally arrive at Ami's villa and while Ryūji cleans the house, the others go to the beach and play a bit. Yūsaku and Minori go grocery shopping, while the rest clean the house. After dinner, Ryūji and Minori talk about love and ghosts outside while having ice cream that Minori bought. The two go back inside and Taiga orders Ryūji to make a midnight snack since she couldn't eat the super-spicy curry that Ryūji made earlier. The two go to their rooms, and Ryūji finds strands of hair and a sticky substance on his bed, while one of Taiga's dresses is warm and is covered with the same substance as Ryūji's. Banging sounds emerge from the door and the balcony door as the two grip each other in fear.
