Sinceramente, este no es el tipo de manga o literatura en general a la que estoy acostumbrada. Cualquiera que me conozca un poco sabrá que mis géneros favoritos oscilan entre la fantasía-ciencia ficción. Sin embargo, fue ver un anuncio del anime en youtube y ya quería leerlo. Tengo que admitirlo, me cogieron con la guardia baja y escribo esto después de ponerme al día tras casi diecisiete tomos leídos en menos de una semana. No me arrepiento. Ha sido un bonito viaje.
Este manga no deja de contar una historia de amor entre los dos protagonistas al mismo tiempo que muestran las inseguridades sobre el futuro, los estudios y la amistad. Asimismo, no hay catástrofes mayores, sino su día a día en el colegio y poco más. Tiene un poco de telenovela, eso sí, por eso me tenía en vilo siempre, aunque supongo como el resto de shojos. Me hubiera gustado un poco más de acción.
Asimismo, destacar dos cosas: en primer lugar su dibujo: me pareció precioso y lleno de detalles. En segundo lugar, el desarrollo de los personajes, no los encontré nada planos y la autora nos va mostrando poco a poco lo reales que pueden llegar a ser. Tengo a todos ellos en mi corazón, se merecen todo mi amor, no, lo siguiente.
En conclusión, considero esta obra ideal para pasar el tiempo, pero no llego a considerarla como una de mis favoritas. Como dije antes me ha gustado mucho leerla y ya estoy esperando que publiquen el resto de tomos.

September 25, 2020Finally caught up with the latest volume! The Valentine Chapters were kinda cute.
Honestly, I've been enjoying this manga but if I have to be 100% honest, there are times where I feel like this manga has become stagnant. Yes, I love all of the characters but at the same time, I can't help but feel like the story here has been a bit one-note. Hopefully for the upcoming chapters/volumes, something good will happen again. :)

Tooru and Yuki are… dating..? No, they’re not. It’s fine because this series has jettisoned all pretence of having an ongoing plot in favour of just randomly clowning its way to a conclusion next volume that I kind of wish had come a few books back.
It’s unquestionably a shame how much the star of Horimiya has fallen since its amazing beginning volumes. I know this because not only have I said those exact words for pretty much the last five volumes or so, but one of my most popular Goodreads reviews is a two paragraph micro-aggression for this very series where I make an inane restaurant analogy that people really seem to love.
And this volume starts out fine, though the series has decided to bring in their “hilarious” thirsty for school girls teacher (at this time in its lifespan Horimiya is playing with fire by reminding me of the superior Daytime Shooting Star) to add some no-doubt-amusing-to-somebody antics.
Antics just about describes this volume in a nutshell. It’s not like the slice of life stuff isn’t ever fun. Despite how utterly dragged out the whole Tooru/Yuki non-relationship is, they do some fun stuff at the start and Yuki has a great bit where she imagines various body swaps between the pairings.
It’s just… not what Horimiya is best at. Or was ever the best at. Hori comes off as mean in this book as she does in the anime and that’s not a good look - rarely have I seen the series that went out of its way to harden its female lead as it went. Some manga continue because they should, some continue because they can. Obviously my opinion here is with the latter.
The chapter wherein Miyamura’s original penchant for piercings from the very start of the series is brought up again feels like an author missing the point of their own work for a few cheap laughs. Hori is miserable about Miyamura’s piercings in a way she never was at the start; it’s like all her redeeming qualities have been sucked out of her so she can be shrill for reaction shots.
The Valentine’s Day section manages to be a proper bit of actual storytelling that shows up at the end and, outside of the Hori and Miyamura stuff (this one aims to be about something but instead goes for the most predictable arc it can take), is somewhat decent.
The younger girl with a crush on Hori makes a friend and there’s a lovely, nearly tragic, moment with Sakura and Yuki, which feels like an admission of defeat by the former as much as anything and is sadly over way too fast and, even worse, is the majority of Sakura’s time in this volume. Can’t dwell on the characters when we can be cracking wise with a sprawling cast whose names I can barely remember.
3 stars. Residual goodwill taken into account, plus acknowledging that what we get is mostly okay. However, I bet if Monthly Girls’ Nozaki-Kun went from being a gag manga to serious storylines every volume with an occasional joke I would have the exact same complaint - steering away from what it did well to what was never really its focus.

March 21, 2021okay i must admit this volume was pretty cute especially the valentine's day chapter. this volume actually reminded me why i liked this story in the first place. kinda feels good.

I think I was mad that the story transformed from focusing on Hori and Miyamura to a full cast, also Hori's anger issues are never resolved, but I have to admit the valentine chapters were cute, but I hope they bring their A game in the final volume for Hori and Miyamura!!!

Miyamura es el más dulce y debe ser adorado!!

Is there any reason for Hori being so damn unpleasant? She's just so mean and nasty this volume. Hell, she's been getting worse personality wise for that last couple of volumes. And what was with her freak out over Miyamura's piercings?

Continua questa serie molto divertente che anche se lunghina non mi sta annoiando affatto.

Este volumen fue mucho más entretenido que los anteriores. Me sigue enojando la toxicidad de Hori.

Omg this volume was so funny I nearly cried in certain parts! I love how much of the humor is centered around either misunderstandings or the crew being their wacky, random, and sometimes stupid selves. While the scenarios are obviously exaggerated, I can't help but feel like real-life teenagers would behave this way and have such random-ass conversations.
The artwork/ art style was amazing as usual and the crew were an absolute delight. It's a shame that there's only one volume left, but this has been a great series and I love it so much. Absolutely deserving of the praise it receives.

Admittedly I'm skimming these volumes lately for just the Hori and Miyamura scenes. I don't care about the side characters at all, at least not enough to put up with multiple chapters dedicated to their plotlines. Sadly this series has definitely stagnated and lost sight of what made it so good in the first place: Hori and Miyamura. The Valentine's Day chapter was cute and a reminder of the high points of the series.

I forgot how funny this series is. It's fun to return to these high schoolers and their relationship issues and quirky personalities. There's one pic that has all the boys next to each other and man do I have trouble telling them apart >.>

Un tome que j'ai aimé lire et qui m'a plu dans son ensemble. On poursuit les petites histoires entre les couples qui se sont formés et qui se forment. L'humour est toujours plaisant et un brin décalé. Horimiya est une jolie petite comédie lycéenne avec des personnages très attachants.

I feel like the longer Horimiya goes on, the less I get interested in the series, but they'll always be so comforting to me. The ending of this volume with Valentine's Day scenes is so sweet and heartwarming I love these characters very much :)

Ya me he puesto al día con el manga y debo decir que ha sido una sorpresa agradable.
No es un argumento supercomplejo, simplemente son historias de instituto donde seguimos a la parejita principal, Kyoko e Izumi, y a sus amigos en su día a día. No se basa en el típico drama de instituto donde el romance se da lentamente, más bien todo lo contrario, vemos un noviazgo temprano y un desarrollo de la relación muy divertido y cuqui. Es agradable de leer y le acabamos cogiendo cariño a todos los personajes, y los secundario acaban teniendo tanto protagonismo como los protagonistas.
Es una historia con la que sentirse bien y con un fácil seguimiento, ya que aunque sigue una línea temporal, no se necesita de varios capítulos para saber que ocurre.

*heavy sigh* Okay. I love the fact the friend group has come such a long way from volume 1. It makes my heart so warm that the main character, Miyamura, went from being a loner to having a large friend group, best friends, and an interesting girlfriend.
Love that for him. It's what he deserves.
However as the series went on, and more characters got added in, my enjoyment dimmed down. And this one was sadly disappointing.
Also, I'm having issues with the way Hori is with Miyamura. I get she's not used to be so soft and affection, but it gets so annoying watching her chew into him for being nice.

Shh, the anime adaptation of Horimiya just made me feel too wholesome and gave me the nostalgia of the early story and I wanted to catch up to the manga again and yes it may have become kind of stagnant but it was so cute and adorable and I missed it and it gets 5 stars whatever. It's still one of the best romance manga alright? YES.
AND THE NEXT VOLUME IS THE FINAL ONE... HORIMIYA IS ENDING AFTER 10 YEARS I'M-
P.S. manifesting long hair Miyamura...
