Toradora! (Japanese: とらドラ!) is a Japanese light novel series written by Yuyuko Takemiya and illustrated by Yasu. ASCII Media Works released ten volumes between March 2006 and March 2009 under their Dengeki Bunko imprint. Three volumes of a spin-off light novel series titled Toradora Spin-off! were later published. The main series follows Ryūji Takasu and Taiga Aisaka, two social outcasts who gradually fall in love while trying to help each other get with their crushes. The title Toradora! is derived from the names of the two main characters.
A manga adaptation by Zekkyō was serialized in MediaWorks' shōnen manga magazine Dengeki Comic Gao! from September 2007 to March 2008. The manga continued serialization in ASCII Media Works' shōnen manga magazine Dengeki Daioh in the May 2008 issue.
A 25-episode anime adaptation produced by J.C.Staff aired in Japan on TV Tokyo between October 2008 and March 2009. NIS America released the anime in North America in two half-season DVD collections in July and August 2010, with an English dub released in July 2014. An original video animation (OVA) episode was released on December 21, 2011.
