Perfect Characters :)
Rauf_Mostafazade20 April 2021
After I finished the Anime Series, For the first time in my life I decided to read the Manga. The Characters and their interactions was so good, but Anime left me with lots of questions. After reading the manga, I fell in love with this story. This is one of the shows that makes you think how incredible would it be if you could have been in it's world. I am not giving it a 10 because I honestly didn't want the story to end like that. I just want to see Hori and Miyamura continue their lives, and how their relationship will evolve after school...

Just watch this, you will be able to experience emotions that maybe you could not have experienced otherwise!

Love at first sight
CynicalShin_10 January 2021
This could very well be my favorite anime. I enjoyed the manga a lot but the anime adaptation is phenomenal as well. The animation is gorgeous, the art style leaves me speechless. Honestly props to the studio

wHoLeSoMe! kAwAiI!
harsalconix7 February 2021
Imo this is probably the best rom com out there currently and this is totally a perfect 10/10 anime... the best part about it is how it respects the phrase 'rom com' meaning i like how it is satisfyingly 50% romance and 50% comedy it has. Also how freaking cute and wholesome this anime is! There isn't any cringey drama, unnecessary love triangles, crappy fanservice, etc. just pure wholesomeness. The episodes just make me curious what happens next and force me into reading the manga

After promising start it gets more and more downhill
yuhatashinatose28 March 2021
After a promising start, the plot becomes a complete mess. Numerous subplots and characters are introduced, often only to be dropped completely or barely mentioned again after only half an episode. In addition, the characters behave increasingly stupid, so that it hurts to watch. Further the dialogues are getting more and more unnatural and weird. In the end I was just happy that it was finally over.

A wholesome start, but some weird storytelling
bendashwood6 March 2022
This show has romance. It has comedy. And it has several elements that makes it stand out in comparison to other anime romcoms out there:

  • The pace of the romantic elements and building of emotional intimacy between the main characters is unusually fast. It focuses less on the curiosity and the first steps towards each other and more on the fostering and maintenance of the relationship.


  • The protagonists are initially portrayed in a rather mature way and don't fondle too much in childish silliness.


Artstyle, animation and soundtrack are decent, although not too memorable. The design choice to differentiate the characters mainly by their bright and colourful hair colour is a little lazy. But it illustrates one of the issues this show has quite well: While the first half of the show focuses a great deal on the two main characters and the development of their relationship, storytelling takes a weird turn around the middle of the first season.

  • Unrelatable side characters are getting a lot of screentime. Unlike the protagonists, they do not achieve any kind of meaningful character development and their stories seem really inconsequential for the whole picture.


  • During the little screen time the main characters get, their relationship takes some weird turns and develops some borderline abusive elements that hardly relate to their personalities. It's being hinted towards this being some kind of fetish or kink, although at this stage of their relationship it seems really awkward - especially being displayed in public.


Fortunately the last two episodes seem to focus more on the original strengths of the show and bring it to a deserved closure. What remains is an impression of a beautiful anime with a wholesome start and a fair share of wasted potential - unfortunately. It is good. But could have been better.

Hori's character is unrealistic
ADI-00044 June 2022
Directed by Mr. Masashi Ishihama "Horimiya" is an average show with neat animation and a good background score. The show starts out well but then the plot gets completely messy.

Although the main protagonists of the show should be Hori and Miyamura, the focus shifts from them to other characters and then back to the main characters which is annoying.

According to me, the only proper character- development in the show is of the character of Miyamura as his troubled past and transformation was shown properly. On the other hand, the other main character Hori's character (according to me) is too strange and totally unrealistic. Also, the unnecessary characters introduced totally did not make an impact on me. The 'love' between Hori and Miyamura seems nothing but attraction.

A really enjoyable rom-com anime
WeAreLive16 May 2021
Kyoko Hori a very beautiful and attractive teen girl meets this boy called Izumi who seems like a punk at first but they develop feelings for each other as the anime goes along.

I enjoyed this anime overall it was funny yet cute at sametime and even emotional.

Not really much to say here other then, check it out it's really fun to watch.

Much Better Than I Expected
Littleman953 April 2021
Plot: it is very simple and yet there are some very deep moments that makes my feelings ride.

It's true, the feelings of the characters are not so deeply developed, but, somehow, this show engulfs you.

Animation: perfect. Nothing to say against it.

Drawings: they have their fingerprints, a good one, and I really appreciate it.

Soundtrack: perfect for this anime.

Conclusions: do you like romance or slice-of-life or you just want something very calm and warming? Well, this is an anime for you. Really.

Best Romance anime for now.
efee_puiyi15 April 2021
I'm not into romance animes but this one is really good. My best romance anime was Your Lie in April but now Horimiya is the 1st place for me.

I like the main character a lot. His moves, his character, his look, I like all of them. The characters are interesting, all of them have their personalty and idea. The relationship between them is so good. Their friendship, love interests, I like them. I really liked the way the story is handled. As far as I have watched, there is no such progress in romantic animes, but this anime gives me exactly the way I want it.

The animation is good. Opening and ending songs are catchy. If you looking for a good romantic anime you should watch this.

Thanks for reading.

I was recommended this by a good friend as soon as the anime adaptation came out, and for a long time, I thought nothing more of it. That was until the day before yesterday; I finally decided to watch an episode, and that one episode turned into binging the entire show in a day. I'm really glad I watched it. The characters are very relateable and have a very good dynamic, and the plot hits right in the feels to the point where my heart almost skips a beat when I think about the show.

10/10 Would very much recommend.

Refreshing with an anime where ppl actually get together
william-eugensson3 June 2022
There are a lot of things I do like about Horimiya. Some of the relationships are more real than usual and you can partly believe that they are real teenagers. I did not find the series that entertaining and for that I am a bit dissapointed. I felt that Horis kink for being manhandled and talked down to were just sad and is not a good thing to add in an anime aimed at teenagers that they are supposed to be able to connect to.

Become boring
parmod-938844 April 2021
I watched 5 episodes but can't see anything interesting more to continue now.

There is nothing too special in this just another anime where a loner gets a girlfriend from nowhere even through they have quite opposite natures. I don't understand how it enter top 5 most rated romance animes.

23 minutes full of quirky romance and laughter
randomid-9913929 May 2021
I love love loved the show. A light hearted show minus any serious drama. And beautifully made (including the kawaii characters). A story that will not disappoint anyone. Also, you'll fall for Toru too! Just wait and watch.
