Episode 5 of Horimiya was released on Saturday, and got to see our couple make some more progress! Well, at start we saw how jealous Kiyoko can be. Her little brother said he saw Miyamura with a girl, and she got mad at him and started avoiding him. It turned out he was helping her friend’s girlfriend walk and he barely got the chance to explain it.
Then we met Kiyoko’s dad, who seems to have an interesting hairstyle. His daughter calls him by his first name, and she’s also fond of kicking/hitting him, but he did give us some adorable moments.
He asked whether Miyamura is Kiyoko’s boyfriend, to which she actually answered positively! It was a subtle way of replying to Miyamura’s feelings, and the 2 ended up officially becoming a couple. Although he obviously has some backstory with his family, Horimiya fans can be thankful to him for pushing our duo.
Sadly, Tooru suffered again. He let out tears when Miyamura called him to tell him about what happened. However! Sakura obviously likes him and she seems nice. Though she has some complex about her looks, I really hope the 2 can build a nice relationship as well and that Tooru gets some love.
Episode 5 already has the couple officially together, and you can watch all the episodes of Horimiya on Funimation. If you enjoyed it, make sure to vote it as the best anime of Week 6 on our weekly poll! You can also check out our interview with the Horimiya anime director here!
