### Horimiya
#### CloverWorks
**Synopsis**
On the surface, the thought of Kyouko Hori and Izumi Miyamura getting along would be the last thing in people's minds. After all, Hori has a perfect combination of beauty and brains, while Miyamura appears meek and distant to his fellow classmates. However, a fateful meeting between the two lays both of their hidden selves bare. Even though she is popular at school, Hori has little time to socialize with her friends due to housework. On the other hand, Miyamura lives under the noses of his peers, his body bearing secret tattoos and piercings that make him look like a gentle delinquent.
Having opposite personalities yet sharing odd similarities, the two quickly become friends and often spend time together in Hori's home. As they both emerge from their shells, they share with each other a side of themselves concealed from the outside world.

Great release, love that we're slowly transitioning to OPUS for audio, I've been transcoding my music to OPUS VBR 160~ for years, and I'm only using that "high" of a target bitrate because music still has some killer samples. 120~ should be no issue for 99% of people. AV1 has barely noticeable compression artifacts on some complex scenes, but unless you pause and look for them, it seems transparent compared to the Blu-Ray source. Again, awesome release, good job!
Now I'm wondering if there's a real difference between H.265, AV1 and VP9 when you're not looking for them. I used to be an H.265 only kinda person.
