Horimiya: Piece (Horimiya: The Missing Pieces)

So much has happened.

Every day was new and different.

The Journey Begins

I won't pretend I remember all of it.

Katagiri High School 63rd Graduation Ceremony

Most of the memories have faded and vanished,

Katagiri High School 63rd Graduation Ceremony

Katagiri High School 63rd Graduation Ceremony

but many are just as vivid as the day they happened.

Katagiri High School 63rd Graduation Ceremony

I'm sure they're...

Kyoto!

Fall leaves!

Temples!

Yeah.

Yuki sure is excited.

Look at all the trees—

Yoshikawa, cool your jets.

Toru, don't boss me around!

Ow!

Like a parent and child...

It's Yuki's first time in Kyoto, so she's raring to go.

I got to come here in middle school.

It's always Kyoto, isn't it?

My school trip was here, too.

But now that we're high schoolers, we get to explore more on our own, which is great.

Yeah.

Except at night...

That's right, Miyamura...

How are you going to bathe?

I don't think I can.

I'm prepared to go without for the whole trip.

The girls have baths in their rooms,

but the guys have to use the public one.

Also, what about changing clothes?

I'll change in the bathroom.

I see.

Good luck.

Am I even going to enjoy this trip?

Is he even going to enjoy this trip?

There you are!

Took you guys long enough!

Hey, Shu.

Yo!

No one else is here, though.

Not a soul.

I bet your yelling scared them off.

What was that?!

Check this out!

Souvenirs from the shop up ahead!

They looked too good to pass up!

He bought souvenirs on the first day?!

Shu, what are you doing loading up when we haven't even been to the hotel yet?

That's a good point!

Wanna eat 'em, then?

Want some, Miyamura?

Huh? Um, I...

I can't believe he bought souvenirs on the first day.

Where'd all her excitement go?

Oh, are you and Iura-kun in the same room?

Laugh Laugh

Yeah, but Ishikawa-kun's with us, too.

Flash

I hope things work out...

I have a feeling they won't.

Class Trip

The bed's so soft!

This room is even better than I expected!

They said we're free until dinner,

but there's nothing to do.

Yeah.

Want to hit up another room?

Oh, like the boys' rooms?

There you go again!

Who picked up the key?

Shu. Shu has it.

Where the hell is he?

What are you guys doing?

Hey, Mizouchi, do you know where Shu is?

He's got our room key.

Iura?

I saw him walk into the room a minute ago.

Shu, you jerk! Open the door!

Ishikawa-kun, calm down!

C'mon, like I said... I'm sorry...

At least let us in the room before you take a nap, dumbass!

Anyway, now that our stuff's in the room,

we can relax until dinnertime.

Yeah, guess you're right.

How long do we have?

Hang on. I'll check—

Day 1 18:00- Public bath (Boys only) 18:00- Class 1, Groups 1-4 18:30- Class 1, Group 5 & Class 2, Groups 1-2 30-minute bath time Class 2, Groups 3 and up will bathe at 20:00 after dinner.

Shu, wake up!

Sure...

Class 1, Group 1

Maybe I'll take a nap, too.

Wait, don't we need to bathe before dinner?

Public bath (Boys only) 18:00- Class 1, Groups 1-4

Do we?

Oh crap.

Miyamura, bath time!

Men

Bath

N-No!

What are you talking about? Let's go already!

I... I, uh...

I'll bathe later.

Hey, hurry it up, group 1!

We're all waiting!

H-Help me, Ishikawa-kun...

Miyamura, you're not feeling well, right?

You're not feeling well? Do you have a fever?

Is it a cold?

N-No, i-it's not a cold...

Going for broke

Shu, Miyamura's on his period.

Huh?

I-I-Is that right...?

Going for broke

Yeah.

Hey, what's taking so long?

Get in the bath already!

Shut up!

We're having an existential crisis here!

Huh?!

Miyamura, I did good, right?

Yeah, good job.

And goodbye.

Huh?

Hey, Miyamura.

Hori-san...

I'm apparently on my period.

Says the guy who got a perfect score in phys ed?!

Wait, is that your excuse to get out of a bath? That's hilarious!

So how are you gonna bathe today?

My period's giving me cramps, so I'll go without.

Want to use the shower in our room?

Yuki went to visit a friend and won't be back for a while.

Won't we get in trouble for a guy going into a girl's room?

Er, you don't have to if you don't want to.

I'm alive again...

C'mon, you coulda used the hair dryer.

Well, I'm sure I could have, but I didn't want to take too long.

Any word from Yoshikawa-san?

Not yet.

Okay.

I should get my stuff ready for tomorrow.

Hori-san...

Would you let just any guy into your room if they were in a tight spot?

You really shouldn't.

Of course I wouldn't.

Really?

Really.

But you let me in.

Well, you're...

Not like that, right?

You're... fine, okay?

Since you're...

I'm what?

I'm what?

Y-You wouldn't t-try anything, right?

Are you sure?

Well, I'll head on back to my room.

Thanks for letting me use your shower.

Hey, wait—

Even if I said he could try something, he wouldn't, right?

What was that about letting other guys into my room?

I took her towel with me...

Oh, Miyamura.

Hey, Miyamura, gonna put on a yukata?

Did you go somewhere?

Oh, yeah. Sorta.

Whoa, look! There are maiko here!

Don't point!

Whoa! Hey there, ladies!

Don't wave at them!

You two have no idea how to behave in public!

I'll return your towel later.

It's fine. We have plenty.

More importantly, what about tonight?

The bath.

If you're coming over, I'll handle Yuki.

Oh, don't worry.

I can always take the late bath for people who miss theirs.

Anyone who misses their designated bath time can bathe after 23:00.

Oh, I see...

I should have read it more carefully.

Sorry.

Don't be.

Thanks for waiting.

It's all yours.

Are you sure?

Now I feel stupid for thinking so much about how to respond.

And why the hell didn't you read the rules?!

Hori?

Are you gonna use the bath?

I am! And I'm gonna be in there until 11:00!

You'll be totally wrinkled.

This class trip really flew by.

It sure did.
