Synopsis

On the surface, the thought of Kyouko Hori and Izumi Miyamura getting along would be the last thing in people's minds. After all, Hori has a perfect combination of beauty and brains, while Miyamura appears meek and distant to his fellow classmates. However, a fateful meeting between the two lays both of their hidden selves bare. Even though she is popular at school, Hori has little time to socialize with her friends due to housework. On the other hand, Miyamura lives under the noses of his peers, his body bearing secret tattoos and piercings that make him look like a gentle delinquent. Having opposite personalities yet sharing odd similarities, the two quickly become friends and often spend time together in Hori's home. As they both emerge from their shells, they share with each other a side of themselves concealed from the outside world. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

Write review 338 Recommended 114 Mixed Feelings 55 Not Recommended All reviews (507) Feb 21, 2026 Fuocofatuo Recommended Horimiya has been in my bucket list for a while and, just a few minutes in the first episode, I knew that I would have loved it This anime brings classic romance without huge plot twists, fights, or anything fucked up, but it is heartwarming, well animated (I love Cloverworks) and it felt refreshing to me I'm in my mid 20s with a lot of doubts and just few answers, so seeing teenagers interacting like they do here made me remember that life can be a lot lighter if you let it be so I will miss Horimiya's vibe for certain, but it will be a great memory I ... feel warmth in my chest typing this comment, this is THAT beautiful Reviewer’s Rating: 10 What did you think of this review?

Horimiya is no exception. The series high production values, rich cast of characters, and lack of dramatic cliches make it strong contender in the SOL genre. It’s refreshing to watch lovable characters discover themselves, something we all can relate to. Horimiya also has some of ... the most realistic portrayal of teenage behavior ever seen in an anime. Yet the lack of conflict presented, deeper character work, and extremely poor pacing make it hard to recommend to the mature viewer. It isn’t shown how our key players change, but told through tedious monologues. We see our leads grow, but how? Why? These gaps are left to the imagination, resulting in an extremely disappointing watch. Its poor pacing also doesn’t do it any favors, spending more than half its run time on the supporting cast. The viewer may enjoy seeing a simple story about relationships and how high schoolers interact, but for those looking for a rich romance or coming of age tale, Horimiya fails.

I felt like their was no build up to the relationship, it was like they were not dating then suddenly dating. The anime is just very rushed and it focuses on a lot of people's personal lives. The anime also focuses on the friend group and skips a lot of the romance between Hori and Miyamura. I was looking for a show with minimal slow burn but this took it to a different level. I didnt even finish the second season because it was just so unneeded. I guess if you like really fast ... pace romances this could be for you. Reviewer’s Rating: 4 What did you think of this review?
