2. Aisaka Taiga

Known throughout the whole campus as the Palmtop Tiger, this is a play on words on her name as well as her feisty personality. Taiga is easily angered and got off on a wrong start with Ryuuji. Her only friend at that time was Minori. She lived a lonely life with no parents until the Takasu family started inviting her for dinner. She has a crush on Yusaku and worked with Ryuuji to get the attention of their crushed since Yusaku was Ryuuji's friend while Minori was close to Taiga.

The most definitive trait about Taiga would have to be her tsundere personality. Everybody loves a good tsundere and Taiga is no exception! It took her that many episodes before she realised her love for Ryuuji. When caught in an embarrassing situation, she is easily flustered which is not typical of her usual feisty trait. The character development for Taiga would also be a reason on why she is so lovable. Throughout the series, she eventually found people that truly cared for her unlike her father who abandoned her. Progressively, you can see that her remarks and retorts were getting less harsh and she started to smile more often.
