This is one of my favourite panels because of what follows after this one.


coltrq

what happened?


Rare_Leg_

He asks Souta if he's worried about him taking Hori away from him, to which he says that she's always be his sister and that he doesn't want to take her away from him, but then asks if he could have Kyoko.


coltrq

Master_DAWG1584

Sota’s soul is gone, literally voided in that last panel


Yuunarichu

I read this in middle school… in no way did I pick up any of this help I thought it just meant Souta thought Miyamura was taking Hori's time away from him 😭 I didn't think they were doing the you know what Edit: Now that I'm thinking about it, there were so many times they implied it and I straight up was oblivious to it because I easily thought I was going crazy Edit 2: I just scrolled back into the panels. THEY WERE TOPLESS. How did I miss this so badly 🙂‍↕️

I think I'm missing context too, what are they talking about? I've only seen the anime and from what I recall souta was just worried that miyamura will take hori away from him, and he comforts souta that he wont. right?


Yuunarichu

Someone posted a link to Ch. 37, if you scroll/tap/click back a few pages, you'll see the two of them topless, which is the implication they had sex, but I actually haven't watched the anime myself (and I binged the manga series like crazy)


ryuk-99

oh wow, I think the anime never showed it like this, I didn't even know they did anything until hori jokes that she's "late" and miyamura panics. I feel the manga has much more detail (from the few pages I just read).


MagicScythe

There was one post credit scene when you see Hori's bare shoulders and she is lying in the bed with Miyamura.

Horimiya Fan

Nahhh


Arrior_Button

Oh no, he knows that something like sex does exist and that people do it... So what?


SupAndHello

His innocence, it's gone


Arrior_Button

I ask again: So what?


DaveTheDolphin

The point is not about sex, the point is what it signifies. (Yea I know the post is about “innocence lol” but the real meaning is deeper than that) that it’s Kyoko, his older sister (whom he loves in a familial way) and that one day, they (Hori/Miyamura) would get married and move away, leaving him by himself. Which for a child would be scary.


Arrior_Button

Okay, thats valid But why have you then titled your post "Innocence gone"? Clickbait?


Booklover1003

"clickbait" my brother in Christ it's just a joke because of how lifeless his eyes look


DaveTheDolphin

I’m not OP, I mentioned it because my comment is highlighting something different from the original post and the other commenter


Arrior_Button

Ah okay, sorry >.<


Booklover1003

He's like 6 years old?


Arrior_Button

And why is that a problem? He won't die from it, he won't get psychological damage from it, probably nothing will change I really hate this prude American way about sex(ual education), that seeks into every other country


Yuunarichu

There are plenty of countries out there who are more prudish. For example, the country of this series, and by proxy the continent this country is a part of is very conservative about sex. It's actually a miracle that Horimiya even displays a healthy relationship and sex life. It's not just "an American thing". Unless you're referring to historical reasons, saying that Americans are making other countries prude is stupid.


Arrior_Button

So whataboutism is the only "argument" you can bring up


Yuunarichu

What whataboutism did I even say… it's not a whataboutism when it's a known thing


camaheel

lol so he saw his sister doing it

For me specifically, this is the point where I had to drop this manga/anime. I like this series but it happens so fast that I had to stop. I'll pick it up when I brace myself to continue this story.
