Horimiya: Piece Episode 13 Discussion

Wasn’t sure how they’d go about ending this one giving how we already saw the ending pretty much lol, but I really like how they did it here. Graduations in anime always give me the feels so it was nice seeing parts of that again, and I really loved the scenes before they all became good friends with that effect on the screen, as well as before Miyamura and Hori even met, I don’t really believe in fate or destiny but it is kinda amazing how many things had to happen like Miyamura said. And ending on the two of them cutting their hair after graduation was nice, I’m usually not a fan of when anime characters cut their hair because it often makes their design worse, but Hori really kills that short hair look and Miyamura don’t look too bad either lol.

But that was the end of this completely unexpected sequel, it may have been a bit scattered in terms of what was adapted but I had just as much as I did with the original show, if not more so. We got to see some focus on characters we barely saw in the original, and there was so much great comedy here that we missed out on before too. And of course getting more on the characters that already had a lot of focus was great too, I’ll never complain if I get to watch Hori and Miyamura being one of the greatest anime couples for more episodes lol.

And the OP and ED for this were top notch, both very good songs with some good visuals to go with them, I think I do prefer the original’s ED slightly but the OPs I can’t decide on which I like more lol, all great songs of course tho. And with that, I guess now we’ve actually reached the end for real this time, unless we got an OVA or a surprise 3rd season but I’m not sure if there’s enough manga for that lol, I’d gladly take a 3rd season taking place after high school tho, that’d be epic.
