Horimiya, vol. 3

The mix of lighthearted banter and heartfelt scenes felt very natural. I'm curious if this was a conscious choice to reflect real high school life.

The characters' connections seem to deepen rapidly, but it works so well here. I'm wondering if that's typical of the series or a deliberate pacing decision.

The contrast makes the characters' world feel both relatable and layered. I'd love to know what inspired this blend of everyday life with deeper themes.
