The best anime of Summer 2023! While some might think the situations in this show are over-exaggerated I'll say that's the charms of Horimiya from the beginning. When this show got announced I was excited to finally see more from this series and now that the show's over, I still want more. There's no point in highlighting the good points, just watch it. I assure you it'll be worth your time.

why is this listed as a separate tv show from the first season of horimiya? either way, it's fine. i enjoyed the extension stories of (most) of the characters particularly Iura, but also this season kind of [spoiler]revealed the holes in horimiya's relationship that just screams RED FLAGS O.o [/spoiler] plus how many of the characters' characterization kind of don't... make sense, particularly kyoko's family & their dynamics. it's like the author was so set on making the show fluffy and nice that many of the 'darker' stuff [spoiler](like the implication that kyoko's parents were never around and she pretty much raised her and her brother herself)[/spoiler] kind of got ignored and brushed aside as the show went on.

A very mixed bag. Some parts are nice, but that just makes you question why these weren't in the main show. In some universe, there is a Horimiya that combined both shows into a show that keeps it's focus on the main couple, and may just be a masterpiece instead of a good show that loses focus in the second half.

i really enjoyed it tbh
