Horimiya

Horimiya:

Out of the series of 25 various types of Romance Manga given to us, I decided to explore Horimiya by HERO. After researching, I found out Horimiya is an ongoing manga that has an extensive number of volumes. For blog purposes, I decided to dive in to a few of the volumes to get a good look at the world of Horimiya.

Horimiya is under the category titled "shōnen", which aims towards a young teen male demographic. Originally titled "Hori-san to Miyamura-kun", the manga tells the tale of Kyoto Hori, your average pretty popular girl, who is enticed by Izumi Miuamura, the shy nerdy boy from Kyoto's class. Although, like any Romance story, there is a secret that both Kyoto and Izumi both hold. Behind Kyoto's school identity, she is a housemaid who takes care of her little brother. With Izumi, he has a secret personality, and hides his secret punk personality. When both secrets are revealed to each other,  they find they have a deeper connection then ever before. This love story has many twists and turns, but the love that is formed between Kyoto and Izumi is showcased throughout the series. I really enjoyed reading the few volumes that I did, and I will definitely continue reading the series.
