Review of Horimiya

It is exactly what you'd expect it to be from the synopsis in my opinion. As a slice of life the story can be somewhat cliche, so don't look here if you want some overarching epic tale. But the characters are solid and its their interactions within the cliches and the juxtapositions of their home and school lives which are interesting. On that note, storytelling is a bit direct sometimes and the anime could've done with less narration and explicit explanations. The sound is decent but only the OP remains memorable. The art might be the animes strongest point as its pretty and well-exectued, quiteenjoyable.
Overall - not very intense, good characters and fun visually. Good to unwind or relax.
