Line 22:
* ''[[Toradora (Light Novel)|Toradora]]'' takes up the plot on New Year's after a short [[Time Skip]] from the [[Christmas Episode]]/[[Wham Episode]]. It contains evidence that [[Nothing Is the Same Anymore]] because {{spoiler|Taiga can talk to [[The Smart Guy|Yuusaku]] without stuttering and becoming a [[Dojikko]]. It turns out to be because she's over him and has realized she's in love with [[The Hero|Ryuuji]].}} A new beginning, of sorts.

Perhaps surprisingly, it doesn't have to do with [[Y 2 K]]. It ''does'' have to do with religious fanatics using zombies to bring about the end of the world. In true X-Files style. "Millenium" pulls double duty as not only an X-Files episode, but the series finale to ''Millenium'', another Chris Carter show. It also marks the {{spoiler|first kiss between Mulder and Scully, just as the clock strikes midnight.}}
