I find this works better than having Miyamura as POV character, like in the original, since it gives it a more unique flair. When this story is told from Miya's POV it feels like your run of the mile shounen romance, but when it's told from Hori's POV it's like a blend between shounen and shoujo, which is extremity cool.


Too bad the OVA was based on the original. It should have been based on this one.
Ah, so that's why I didn't like the OVA as much as I thought I would. I've been reading Horimiya, which I thoroughly enjoy, not Hori-san to Miyamura-kun. My one complaint was that the OVA was too Miyamura-centric, and now I know why!
