Oh boy, Hori's temper running hot this episode. I haven't seen her like this in awhile. However, seeing her cry like that was also sad to see but luckily, Miyamura was there to cheer her up.

I still find their relationship really sweet in this season. Hori sometimes does have trouble containing her emotions but I think she'll be fine.

We weren't getting much of Hori and Miyamura since the last few episodes quite honestly, and that's quite understandable too but still. Anyways that being that, we did get a LOT this time.. though that means a lot of weird kinks too.

It's kind of tough living the popular life, I mean not only does your girlfriend and her family members, there are people of the same male breed too who kind of fancy you.. and in some super extreme way. I DIDN'T REMEMBER AT ALL who that glasses dude was until they started addressing him by his name, but he's kind of… weird and creep lol. His love beyond boundaries for Miyamura aside, there is Hori too, who's kind of quirky on her own, I mean she could sniff you and tell you're her owner. Good to see Miyamura rightfully marking his property too( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡°), albeit he learned something really WRONG.

Again, sniffing someone isn't Hori's only forte, I mean she could punch you after a fight where the fault lies in herself, and could almost make you apologize too… except she kind of reflected back. Sweet moment there but again Miyamura apologized first lol.

Glad they kept that segment where Hori joked and messaged Miyamura that she's pregnant lol.

Lmao, Watabe is a complete Miyamura simp.

One day Ishikawa notices that one of their classmates, Watabe , is a fanatic when it comes to Miyamura, for reasons unknown. Hori keenly senses Watabe's unusual interest in Miyamura. One day, Hori becomes furious when she realizes that Watabe has marked Miyamura in some way, leading to a heated argument between the two of them. In another story, Hori and Miyamura get into another silly spat, and the longer Hori goes without apologizing, the harder she finds it to tell Miyamura how she really feels.

It's become too cliche for girls to find guys they like in yaoi situations cute. Although I must admit, the recurring theme of stalking Miyamura is becoming a bit repetitive. This time, Watabe's involvement is played for laughs rather than drama, making it more suitable for omake content. Nice to see Kyousuke again aswell.

Miyamura has a stalker, and while it was funny i thought he was pretty creepy i understand will Hori was on guard for him.
Anyway the smell things was funny but it worked out somehow even after a fight between the two which was resolved pretty strangely but i guess that's relationships for you.
The final scene was also nice, that kiss.

5:09 I agree with Miyamura here. "Weird" "Kinda weird" lol
6:41 Miyamura's voice here is really great
13:47 Oh damn she realizes it's her own fault. I actually didn't really like how she was so posessive of Miyamura, especially when it's about other guys, so this is nice.
We got more wholesome Horimiya moments this episode, nice!

Yeah I dunno about Watabe, that entire thing kinda weirded me out. Especially the folder, why the hell does he have a folder specifically for Miyamura?

After quite a bit of time, we get a episode focused towards Hori and Miyamura! The entire smell bit was funny, Hori having the smelling capability of a dog and Miyamura smelling others to.. train his sense of smell to detect who's who? I honestly don't understand what happened but it's funny so I'll leave it at that. It feels a little weird being with the two, since we've been with the other characters for a while than these two. Change of pace I suppose, but I am happy.

Another odd but silly fight between the two, the way it was resolved was sweetly weird but Hori and Miyamura are also weird so it works out haha. Brings a big fat smile to my face like always. The part where Miyamura pulls apart her arms to reveal Hori's face and saying all those things was adorable, but than comes the kicker. Yui and Toru watching the entire makeup and thinking the same thing was a good chuckle. Bakamura.

The kiss moment surprised me so much, second one this season after the tangerines! Many funny and wholesome moments ٩(。θᗨθ。)۶
Wonderful episode as always, enjoy your weekend!

Idk how I never really picked up on it before, or at least don’t remember cause it’s been so long since I read the manga, but the sensei is really creepy. Like the comments he makes about sneaking into the girls locker room to check for Hori is odd to say the least.

Stalker situation with Miyamura was also very odd. They tried to play it off as funny but that dude was weird. Hori really had no reason getting jealous like that, but that’s the thing with real people. They do irrational things and that’s what makes horimiya such a popular series.

Even if for me personally the story stagnates once Hori and Miyamura get together, the fact it shows teenagers acting like real teenagers, which is something we don’t see often, is cool.

The idea of waiting so long to apologise and then just not knowing what to say like we saw today is so real and many people can relate to that. Miyamura’s kiss was the best way to solve everything.

Hori has always been the jealous type, now we get even more of her being so. Its amazing how keen her sense of smell is. She could sniff out any guy's scent that lingered on Miyamura. This guy Watabe was very creepy with his behavior getting close to Miyamura like that. Admiring from afar is fine but blatantly taking pictures in the hallway is a bit much. Along with having a full folder of Miyamura pictures on his phone. Watabe having even held Miyamura in such regard when he had his long hair, its wild seeing this guy act like that towards Miyamura. It gave Hori plenty of fuel to her jealousy, hating smelling other guys on Miyamura. Him wearing a hoodie against School dress code had some funny moments. You can't fool Hori nose and she knew right away that hoodie wasn't actually Miyamura. Their little angry spat at each other was funny, neither wanting to apologize even though Hori knew it was on her to apologize. Its weird seeing her admonish him while saying everything is her fault. They quickly reconciled though which is nice.

The long hair glasses gang huh. Looks like Watabe really cared about Miyamura. Hori though sure has a keen sense of smell. Still its amusing seeing her reaction to Watabe marking him. In the end its nice to see Hori realize her error. Its been some time since we seen Hori and Miyamura have any kind of fight but this one sure showed a different side to their bond.

Been a hot minute since we got focus on Hori and Miyamura, and it was a damn good bit too, seeing Hori get so upset over her argument with Miyamura was both upsetting and hilarious thanks to Miyamura’s way of making her feel better, it was definitely cute as well. And after all that was done with, Miyamura sucked the soul out of Hori while walking together, that was a kiss and a half lol, this whole part reminded just how good of a couple they are.

Hori’s superhuman sense of smell was quite funny as well, along with when she smacked her face into the wall on accident lol, that really got me. And I can’t forget the “late period” text she sent Miyamura followed by a “jk” lol, Hori was not playing around. And lastly, we met yet another character that never appeared in the main show, being Watabe, he was pretty goofy with his obsession of Miyamura, taking pics and videos of him is going a bit far but giving that he seems harmless I guess it isn’t the worst thing, as long as it doesn’t go any further lol.

I have two questions. First, how far can Hori's domestic "violence" go? If she were a guy and Miyamura was a girl, then her behavior would definitely knock the abuser bingo out of some women's site. And after that, it's Miyamura who's supposed to handle the situation? And secondly, why is it that when she had a gay love interest, everyone took it as a serious cause for drama, but when Miyamura got a gay love interest, it is seen as a disturbing comedy?

This episode was pure gold! Poor Miyamura getting beaten up by Hori, and then out of spite she drops the "late period" sike! It's a wonder he has any sanity left with her, even their friends are scared of her.

I do like how casually he fits in with the Hori's, puts up with their innuendos and is treat like a member of the family to the point he gets preferable treatment over Kyousuke.

I agree … so much of Pieces is based on familiarity with the manga chapters … but that said … this episode was very funny and heartwarming for a fantastic couple!

And … the I love your sent best, followed by the kiss was the best!!! 👏😀👍

Out of my own sanity I'll probably abstain from reading other posts here because I like Hori as a character and I'm sure the Anti-Hori Fan Club's got a whole lot of material to nitpick on to criticize her character. Nevertheless, I just wanted to drop some thoughts here because no one else I know still keeps up with Horimiya.

This episode pretty much summarizes a lot of personal experiences I've had with having a significant other back in high school. It's far from perfect, fights just happen out of nowhere, and you forget why you're mad at each other. You try your best to reassure your partner despite how bananas they are sometimes, and you do what you can to adjust to what they expect out of you to a reasonable point. Hori and Miyamura's relationship is by far the realest I've seen from romance anime under a high school context. It's very flawed, but it's still very endearing and heartwarming.

Great episode, missed this star couple, I'm glad we got to have another episode focused on them. As much as I love the side characters, I was kind of disappointed in the previous episode when we didn't see much of them again.

I completely Agreed with Watabe that Miyamura' Long hair with piercing & glasses was mesmerizing but still I like the way he is now because his personality has changed after meeting Hori
The fighting and at last Miyamura confronting Hori when she was crying was the Beutiful Scene

I will never complain about getting a Hori and Miyamura focused episode. I mean, I've been loving the other character focused episode cause it'd been a very nice change of pace, but I can never get tired of seeing those two together on screen.

Honestly got a little depressed thinking that there were only two episodes left this season, but then became super not-depressed when I remembered there's 13 episodes and not 12.

Watabe finds interest in Miyamura...in his hair. Interesting...

Taking a pique in mystery novels, Watabe wants to take a picture out of Miyamura's books, but whatever he's doing, he's not reaching to him. But Hori smells a different scent on Miyamura, it's neither Ishikawa nor Shindo but Watabe's, essentially like a dog. The weird couple who accepts cheating and says it outwardly like it's nothing, Miyamura starts being another dog as well to smell a scent on the guys, even Shindo, who freaks out and enacts the Hori mode. Meanwhile, Watabe's interest in Miyamura grows like a stalker, and he's unashamed about it to have a folder of pictures and voice messages of him. And Hori isn't happy that she's smelling more of Watabe's scent on Miyamura, though he hugs her, and the former thinking that he's finally going all masochist mode on her.

As expected, the weird couple had quite the fight, though Hori got a karma to hit the wall, and this feud isn't done until one concedes fault. A typical couple fight like this...has a lot of emotions, aside from acknowledging that they're sorry to each other, and love each other as dearly, lovely with sweetness. The coldness sets Miyamura with a hoodie, though Iura matches that with his enthusiasm, wanting to borrow a textbook. But welp, Miyamura's hoodie is not his, and he avoids Hori like the plague, though he substitutes it with a scarf the next day and smeling his scent to prove that it's him. Sure enough, the hoodie was Shindo's despite him washing it, and aside from a scent, a kiss is more scently.

Weird proportions, that makes the couple one.

This week's episode and last week's episode... yep, they definitely ran out of decent manga chapters to adapt.

Trash episode. Hori is among the worst types of girlfriend one could get but of course this series portrays it as something humorous and endearing. And to think some people unironically see Hori as gf material smh.
