What i don't get is why people feel the need to single out Hori like he's the only sword to have done this, when in fact, Yamatonokami in Hanamaru season one did the exact same thing, betraying everyone to go after Okita and defend him and he too was welcomed back with open arms like nothing had happened, but i didn't see anyone batt an eyelash at that. So, somehow it's ok for Yamatonokami to do this but people lose their shit when it's Hori? I admit that he did seem kind of OC at points, like in episode 1 when asking himself why the Saniwa paired him up with Kane_san, when Hori should have already been used to being in a team with Kane_san, as they belonged to the same master previously. I just think of it as exploring another, more vulnerable side to his character that the game doesn't really show. However there is one thing that spans across all media, and that is Hori's kindness and his ability to sense immediately when someone is not feeling well and wanting to help them in anyway he can(Kashuu in Hanamaru 2 and Kane_san after episode 5 of Katsugeki). Also it's not  that farfetched what Hori did, a lot of the swords have strong attachaments to their previous owners and some others have thought about changing history even though they got stopped from going though with it.(Imanotsurugi, Honebami, Fudou). Besides Hori had thought about saving Hijikata even in the game, it's actually a canon recollection, but everyone just seems to forget that!
