Everyone Is Fake in Toradora!

High school is... confusing. There's a lot of emotions you deal with that are intense, and you don't have the benefit of experience to know how to deal with them. There's a reason why this time period is marked by experimentation, uncertainty, and well... fakeness. Toradora explores this spectacularly, and I'd like to delve into how that relates to Maslow's hierarchy of needs, and weird Greek words on love. References: Lewis, C. S.
