Synopsis

High school freshman Houtarou Oreki has but one goal: to lead a gray life while conserving as much energy as he can. Unfortunately, his peaceful days come to an end when his older sister, Tomoe, forces him to save the memberless Classics Club from disbandment.

Luckily, Oreki's predicament seems to be over when he heads to the clubroom and discovers that his fellow first-year, Eru Chitanda, has already become a member. However, despite his obligation being fulfilled, Oreki finds himself entangled by Chitanda's curious and bubbly personality, soon joining the club of his own volition.

Hyouka follows the four members of the Classics Club—including Oreki's friends Satoshi Fukube and Mayaka Ibara—as they, driven by Chitanda's insatiable curiosity, solve the trivial yet intriguing mysteries that permeate their daily lives.

Every time I decide to re-watch "Hyouka", I feel like I'm revisiting a place full of memories and magic. This anime has a never-ending appeal, and every time I watch it, I discover something new that makes me fall in love even more.

*A Curious Mystery*
From the very first episode, I was immediately mesmerised by Houtarou Oreki's lazy yet brilliant character. When the feisty Chitanda Eru came into his life with all her curiosity, I couldn't help but feel curious about every mystery they faced. Each puzzle, both simple and complex, is presented in such a clever and enthralling way. The way Houtarou solves the mystery ...

Hyouka is an anime based on a series of novels by Yonezawa Honobu. The anime adaptation was handled by Kyoto animation. also Hyouka is a mystery series about everyday occurrences, revolving around four high school students in the Classic Literature Club that only resolving small and seemingly insignificant mysteries.

They carry through the scene enough to make it work, but not diverse enough to create anything of significance. Hyouka is a beautifully animated anime (great opening and ...

Hyouka is one of the best Anime of all time but statistically, most of the people are dumb and by dumb I imply many factors (its not something about IQ, it's about point of view of the people in general). Even though many of you can disagree with me, there is no doubt that most of the people are NOT self-conscious, they just live their life without thinking about it much and that is why they can find Hyouka a very boring and tedious.
I see no sense of describing the main plot of this anime, as many of you already know that as "very boring ...
