In my experience of watching anime and manga, I've encountered a lot of yandere across various mangas. They are quite crazy and do get quite violent when the MC gets intimate with any person other than her. Even though Hori is not Yandere, he is much more possesive than any Yandere I've seen imo.

It's one thing to get jealous when your partner is spending more time with opposite gender best friend while being dishonest about it but Hori is very insane, I've never seen any girl in my life who gets jealous when her boyfriend is spending time with his family and guy friends.

She seems like toxic shoujo male lead written off as a girl imo.

@Isekai-Enjoyer Yeah, she is not yandere. I'm just saying that she is much more possessive about her bf than actual crazy Yanderes

that scene where she was throwing books at him because he used " chan " as an honorific for a girl he knows ( and helped her ) is the worst scene of the entire series

Hori is worried about him hanging around his best friends because Miyamura is Bisexual. Still a bit possessive, I do agree, but as she said, boys are just as dangerous as girls.

Which scene are you talking about? That one where Miyamura goes on a family trip? That was just Hori missing Miyamura even tho it was just 3 days. They're teenagers so a little bit of possessiveness is kinda expected from them and I don't think that's toxic at all.

Matlab kuch bhi?

Whatever you do... do NOT read the manga. There is a lot of abuse in it that the anime cuts out for the better. Kyouko has problems.

to be fair, I don't think anyone would be cool with a bunch of girls suddenly taking pictures of their boyfriend right in front of then. I can't think of other instances right now, but I never thought her reactions could be considered crazy

I think so too. Someone made a comment on it a while ago and I agreed with them, here’s what they said:

Personally, I don't think they do. Many times, while watching the two leads interact, I had a strong impression that this relationship was all about Hori and the more the story progresses, the more I feel like that.

First, Hori's jealousy. It's really getting out of hand at this point. Their female classmates cannot make some innocent remarks on Miyamura's good looks without Hori's jealousy flaring up and, what is even worse, she often takes it out on her boyfriend even though he has done nothing to deserve it. Now, the poor guy has to change how he interacts with his male friends too for fear of upsetting her. This shows that one, she doesn't trust Miyamura, which is quite surprising considering that he is a really nice person and he has never given her cause to doubt his loyalty or his feelings for her, and two, their relationship is not balanced since Hori holds all the power, for lack of a better term.

Secondly, Hori's kink. Just to make it clear, I'm not kink-shaming, people are free to do what they want in their house/bedroom as long as there are respect and consent on both sides. The problem here is not the kink per se, but how Hori is pushing Miyamura to behave in a way that is the polar opposite of his own nature and he's forced to do so in public. Apart from the fact that this could potentially lead to Miyamura getting in trouble, it only takes a random passerby who witnesses their interactions and misinterprets them, Hori's behaviour is also showing that she doesn't respect her boyfriend and his limits at all, even though she claims that she loves him. It has been made abundantly clear that Miyamura is very uncomfortable with the whole thing, he's not secretly liking it and just pretending he doesn't, it's truly difficult for him to act in this way towards her, but instead of accepting him as he is, she nags him about it for her own personal satisfaction.

There's no balance in their relationship at all. Hori is usually the one who makes decisions and Miyamura just goes along with what she wants. As an example, Miyamura doesn't like horror movies but he still watches them because he knows that his girlfriend enjoys them. Has Hori returned the favour? Has she ever made an effort to watch something he likes? Nope, not as far as I remember anyway. She's been shown thinking about it, but her thoughts have not translated into actions. Sure, this is a small and quite insignificant example if taken in isolation, but add it to everything else and you start to notice a pattern.

It would have been fine if the anime was genuinely trying to portray an imperfect and not quite healthy relationship, but that's not what they're doing. Everything I've written above is usually downplayed or used for humour and it's obvious that the author still wants us to ship these two. Unfortunately, it has the opposite effect on me.
What do you guys think about this? Do you like or dislike their relationship and why?’

I don't know if I would call her a yandere but she is toxic. If someone thinks she is sweet I just hope they don't meet such a person in real life. Aggressive, impulsive, incredibly jealous. Capable of making a fuss for absolutely no reason and additionally forcing you into her fetishes. Horrible girl

She actually checks all the basic yandere traits, not kidding.

  • love sick ✔️
  • overly jealous ✔️
  • overly possessive ✔️
  • pathologically obsessed ✔️
  • mentally unstable (female masochism) ✔️

A clear-cut yandere indeed, which makes her even more appealing.

It actually was a very cute romance with a little bit of depth at the start. It's after half of the story, where the Author had nothing to tell anymore and went into full comedy beats that it got boring/weird for a lot of readers. And still, the Anime skipped a lot of these, and put most in Piece.
