| While this anime started off strong, it fizzled out near the end. Really strong cast of characters, underwhelming to see most of them just forgotten due to the lack of episodes. (Sawada and Iura especially) I did enjoy it, but the final score is a 7/10 for me, and I will continue reading the manga. If the manga looks into all of the un-developed characters, it could be amazing. |
 |
| I think this show is worth a 5/10, but it's score is helped by how pretty it is, both visual and sound wise. I'll give it a 7/10 for my enjoyment, which is a good score I think. Not too bad of a watch, maybe my expectations were too high. Won't be reading the source material. |
   |
| I like the last episode, I'm a sucker for graduation episodes if done right. I didn't enjoy the rest of the show, though. I really didn't feel like there was any chemistry between the two main characters. |
 Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol. |
| Looooooooooool Iura The waterworks started during the “what if” scenes. It’s a blessing to be able to know the people you know, to enter someone’s life, to have an impact, no matter how small, on someone’s life — how sad would it be if all that didn’t happen. That scene was adapted well. That evoked a lot of emotions.........(;´༎ຶٹ༎ຶ`) Miyamura accepting his past self within & moving on. Sakura leaving her feelings behind & being so gracious about it. Tooru being my best boy. Yuki admiring Sakura. Yanagin being his precious self. Also L O L @ Kyosuke taking pictures with Miyamura!!!! Miyamura’s monologue at the end while running alongside Hori was so touching. If only I could gift you this beautiful sky They had to skip chapters considering the amount of episodes they had & to give this adaptation a faithful conclusion. I also don’t understand people bitching about the “random focus on side characters” it’s like that in the source material too. It’s a decent & pretty faithful adaptation, definitely struggled with its tone & direction but as a manga reader, I think the direction & tone of its more dramatic scenes were done perfectly. And more content is always welcomed & I’m also glad they wrapped it up with this one season & didn’t drag it out any longer than it needed to be. Still prefer the manga tho, but the voice cast couldn’t have been more perfect to bring these characters to life. Will miss this bunch. And ooooomg the credits stills!! They also showed the jacket still from the school festival that wasn’t adapted uwu |
 ꕤ but i’ll probably remember over and over again you were there and everyone else was there — the day we all searched for just one thing ꕤ |
| I never imagined that they would end up adapting the final chapter. I did think about it once but to have a chapter animated after like 15 days of release, damn. |
 |
| One of the strongest episode of the series, and a pretty damn good high note to end. Too bad half the series was a bit rocky in quality and pacing... 7.5/10 |
 |
| They just Skipped the part |
 |
| So I guess that this was a good show but a horrible adaptation. Seems like Cloverworks is not feeling like giving us sequels anymore. |

| Gintoki and Sugita's birthdays are 1 day apart. |
| What a way to throw your fanbase under the bus and realease the anime just to promote your manga ending soon. YIKES If Promised Neverland Season 2 got hate for skipping 1 arc then Horimiya should get hate for skipping half the manga |
 |
| I dont even read the manga but idk it feels like they wrapped it to the ending too quickly. Tho this is a nice romance anime with a nice ending as well. I still would recommend it to everyone who likes the genre. This reminds me of Yamada and 7 witches, clearly rushed but still a very entertaining anime. This made me want to get a girlfriend lol |
| I was really looking forward to the anime only just to get disappointed, huh. They just skimmed through the entire manga. I'll go through the negatives first. The main problem was that the pacing was all over the place. They weren't able to properly balance the stuff they were trying to portray. Because of the that the transition from one scene to another just feels off. For example, we were just having some serious moment and a second later they shove some over-the-top comedy in our face. It makes the scene prior less impactful. And the lack off screen time of the side characters and the couples and the lack of their interaction with the main characters made their friendship with one another kind of hollow. I know a lot of people complain about the filler chapters of the latter part of the manga but they did a great job developing the other couples and the characters and their relationships and how they became closer and bonded over time. And those were really really fun to read. And since the anime rushed and skipped most of the manga, the side characters just feel like just some characters. I know I complained a lot but don't get me wrong. There were highs too. The anime nailed some moments that mattered, the stuff with Miyamura for instance or the moments with Hori. And the anime was consistent throughout. The animation was great. The designs were pretty. The background arts were beautiful. OSTs were great too. The opening is my favorite OP of the season. Ishihama's storyboard for the OP was fantastic. I just love the OP and the changes he did later on, it was so pretty. And I still quite enjoyed the series to the end. BUT it still could have been MUCH MUCH better. But alas, this is all we will get. Like I said before, I still enjoyed the anime. Don't know if it's because the anime visually looks good or maybe it's because of my love for the manga, nonetheless it was still a fun watch. |

| Eh, didn't really like this in the end. It's really a shame that the main couple got together in the first few episodes, only to make it seem like they're only just close friends the following episodes. It doesn't really seem like a romantic relationship to me, could even say it seems quite toxic. Honestly I liked the other characters more than Hori and Miyamura, but even then only a few got enough screen time. Yes the animation is great and all, but I came for a romance anime, not a (boring) SOL with superb animation. If I wanted to watch a SOL I'd do that, but I dislike how series try to sell you the romance then fails in the latter half of the series. 4/10 |
| Felt like an anime original ending since we went straight to graduation but really I know they just skipped a million more chapters to jump right the end. I mean it works pretty well as the ending. Show was pretty cute a lot of the time but I have very little investment in any of the characters given how insanely rushed it was and how we had so many characters/side plots going on like it was Tsurezure Children (but it actually works very well in Tsurezure). Anyways for the most part a pretty cute romcom with not a lot going on. |
| They did what they could with 13 episodes. I am pretty happy with how it turned out. Going to miss it. |
| I love the manga so much so the anime just made me happy. It might have been a pretty mediocre romance anime for most, but it made my Saturday's better. I do wish we would have more, especially to have the sports festival arc animated, but this definitely felt enough for a great adaptation. |
 |
| While technically literally half the manga was skipped; I still think this is a better version than the manga. The original just had so much fluff that it kept dragging on and on with zero development that the reader had been used to in the first part. Only thing that would've made it better is adding some changes/additions in the anime rather than just cutting content and not adding anything better. 8/10 mostly for the fact that I really loved the first ~40 ch/6 eps. Second half the manga was more like a 4/10 for me but the show avoids that by just skipping it. Was originally thinking the show would just rearrange some chapters and end at the proposal but it makes more sense just to finish it through given that the chances of a S2 would be very slim since the manga is finished now. |
| they kinda skipped alot but they decided to ditch the middle part of the manga that has minimal hori and miyamura and i kind of like what they did it flowed well and it was surprising but not in a bad way i really loved the adaptation you will be missed I love u horimiya 9/10 |
| i love this anime so much feels so warm watching it and am glad to see a manga i've read before being animated ((: definitely will rewatch in the future 9/10 for skipping half of the manga, it was still good. the stuff cut out weren't relevant at all to the main couple and were just a bunch of other random couples so it wasn't much of a problem for me.. unlike tpn |

| Really enjoyed this anime. The visuals, the OP and ED themes and Iura's voice acting is perfect. I'll be reading the manga soon. |
| What if is all just a dream that is kidda suck and normal life of Miyamura and friends if he did met Shouta. Is so good season I really enjoyed it i think I rate it a 9/10 |

| Reflections on previous selves and different possible paths taken in life while graduating as we end the series. Even though I thought this actually got a bit blander as it went along I'd still say it was a strong series for its genre. I vaguely recall reading some of the source material several years back now, but I pretty much went into this blind. And it was at times very sweet, and very emotionally effective. Solid 8/10. Probably in the Top 5 of the Winter anime season, which for me now has but one more show to finish. Excluding the ones continuing on into Spring of course. |
| I genuinely love this show, I'm hoping for the next season already. 9/10 |
 |
| Felt like the show had too many characters to have it be 13 eps only. It felt like some things were just introduced for one episode and then gets dropped. Probably will have to read the manga if I want to know more I guess. Overall it was okay, had a good start but it felt like it was getting boring since it didn't feel like it really explored some of the things later on. The final minutes were pretty good though, probably won't get a second season though. |
| So it actually ended at graduation, so there goes the hope of a S2. Either way this was pretty good show overall. The massive jumps in time was a little bit of an annoyance. Felt like I was missing a lot of character interactions and how their relationships progressed. Art was really solid and pleasant to look at throughout the whole show. Comedy was really great and it managed to catch me off-guard a few times as well. OP is the best of the season in my opinion. 8/10 |
 |
| If we're being honest, most manga fans were not a big fan of the parts they skipped. Horimiya's peak was the first 40 chapters. After that it was all SoL filler. I for 1 am glad they went with this route for the anime, since I would not want to watch 2 more seasons of uninspired SoL. The manga purist can cry all they want, go read the manga then lmao. |

| The first half of the show was a bit rushed but still really good, the second half just kinda felt rushed. But definitely gonna go read the manga now, and definitely gonna miss this show. Overall still pretty good imo. |
| I'm sad that there's no more Horimiya for me to watch. Great final episode overall in my opinion though! :) |
 |
| I'm already sad that this show is already over ;_; Even with many scene cuts from the manga, it still enjoyed watching every single episode. Loved it! Poor Moto, she couldn't process the playful side of big brother XD That part showed in the credits in a memory photo :) |

| I don't hate Horimiya, but even without knowing how the manga is, i know it's a rushed adaptation. At least it's funny to see how the characters interact and the funny moments, but between chapter 7 and 11 the anime threw me a rock directly to my left eye, just to threw another one to my right eye with this last 2 episodes. I really wanted this episode to say "seeya next season". 4/10 |
 The fake is of far greater value. In its deliberate attempt to be real, it's more real than the real thing. If u hate monogatari, u are just dumb |
| That was a nice ending, albeit abrupt xD Horimiya is a great show ngl, so good that even cloverwork's bad adaptation did not bring it down too much. 7/10 |

| Started up good, but got bland and boring towards the end. Tbh I'm kinda glad it's over 7/10 |
 |
| Ngl kinda mad that they skipped right to the end of the manga, since I buy english volumes they spoiled the ending for me haha, but they also skipped so much stuff there will still be enough new material in the last volume for me I bet... but the episode itself was really good imo, I just wish that the anime would have focused more on the slice of life aspect of the manga and ended the anime with ep 12 ending |
| Loved the ending ngl, i especially enjoyed Miyamura's resolution and his narration but as a lot of people said the pacing felt way too rushed most of the time and it's pretty sad that we didn't get to see more of the other characters' development. I expected less from the final episode since i didn't like some episodes, i rated it a 6/10 after watching the 12th ep but the final ep was a pleasant surprise |
bam |
| damn they adapted the final chapter that came out last month, good job cloverworks, even though they skipped some stuff they put it in the ending song just to remind us manga readers of the good times we had while reading this manga. 9/10 overall for me |
