Thoughts<\/b>: <\/span>Horimiya <\/span><\/i>started off as one of the most hyped shows for the Winter season. Riding off the coattails of a critically-acclaimed manga<\/a> that also just concluded, the anime released gorgeously-animated PVs to much excitement. As someone who doesn\u2019t read manga, even I have heard of <\/span>Horimiya<\/span><\/i> \u2014 namely praises from even the harshest critics, so I could not wait to dive into the exciting story.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Horimiya <\/span><\/i>is an anime about identity and the sides you show to specific people. Hori is one of the most popular girls in the school. She\u2019s charming, hardworking, and nice to everyone she meets. However, at home, she reveals a different side to herself that no one else is aware of \u2014 snarky, a nag towards her younger brother and father, and a lover of horror movies<\/a>. By pure chance, she ends up running into Miyamura, the class\u2019s social<\/a> outcast, and discovers his true self \u2014 a boy who is rebellious, incessantly sweet, and loves interacting and talking to other people. Through their chance meeting with each other\u2019s true selves, both of their worlds open up to not only within themselves but the people around them as well.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I know that many people had lamented the skipped material in the manga from what I\u2019ve read online. While I feel that specific episodes felt rushed, I still think the vast majority of the series paced itself well. <\/span>Horimiya <\/span><\/i>is an incredibly honest and healthy look at the relationship Hori and Miyamura develop, and for once, we have an anime that doesn\u2019t beat around the bush. Their attraction towards each other is made fairly clear early on with both sides acknowledging it, and Hori is the one who solidifies their relationship by loudly proclaiming Miyamura is her boyfriend rather than the other way around.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
