Kyoko Hori

Miyamura Izumi

Since middle school, Izumi was ignored and no one tried to talk to him. One of the people who often bullied Miyamura was Makito Tanihara. During his elementary and middle school years, his classmates often talked behind his back about how it was his own fault that he had no friends. He was considered silent and strange. Because Miyamura didn't know how to cope with the bullying, he started using safety pins to pierce his ears. This helped him cope with the pain he felt during his loneliness. He then got a couple of tattoos to relieve stress. One day, after class, Miyamura was bumped by a classmate and his books fell to the floor. At some point, he notices that his notebooks are being picked up by Koichi Shindo, a rather cheerful guy by nature. He starts calling Miyamura by his first name, which irritates him. Soon, they become friends and become good friends.

Miyamura's Personality

Initially, Izumi comes across as a quiet, gloomy, and anti-social person at school. His classmates think he is an otaku, who is difficult to approach and talk to. At an early age, Izumi was shy and struggled to hold conversations with others. In middle school, he began to be teased and bullied, especially by Makito Tanihara and his group of friends, causing him to become a pessimist. He would get a safety pin piercing when he felt like school was giving him a hard time. It has also been suggested that he contemplated suicide. However, upon meeting Koichi Shindo, who was Makio's friend at the time, Koichi treated Izumi much better than his classmates, causing them to become good friends. The two interacted even after going to different schools. Izumi thanks Koichi for helping him change. As he enters high school, he still retains his dark aura, which is pointed out by his classmates. When Izumi and Kyoko encounter each other's hidden sides, Izumi displays a friendly and casual attitude, a trait that Kyoko did not expect from him. The next day, when Kyoko does not avoid him and explains the situation, Izumi becomes happy. Through interactions with many of his classmates, Izumi becomes a good friend and a caring person who strives to help others (especially towards Kyoko and Souta). He has violent tendencies. When his friends are involved in arguments, he will hit someone if he feels it is necessary. Sometimes Izumi can be downright stubborn and nervous, which is probably why he got tattoos that he has to cover up and wear warm clothes at school to avoid showing them to others. Outside of school, he is free to show off his piercings and tattoos. Izumi seems to have low self-esteem and cannot easily communicate with people he is not close to. Miyamura hates drawing unnecessary attention to himself, preferring to be considered "invisible."

Miyamura's appearance

Izumi is of average height, with a slender build and pale skin. He is noted to be really handsome and attractive with long eyelashes and feminine features, which is often pointed out by others. He has blue eyes, messy black hair that reaches the back of his head and thin eyebrows. Izumi has a total of nine piercings: four in both ears and one on his lip, all of which he did himself. He also has several tattoos on his left shoulder, left arm and left side. Initially, Izumi wore warm clothes to hide his tattoos. He kept his shoulder-length hair straight to hide his piercings. He wore glasses with thick black frames. Outside of school, he takes off his glasses and wears his hair in a small ponytail, with a few strands framing his face. He sometimes wears a ring and a lip chain. When Izumi starts dating Kyoko, he decides to cut his hair and stop wearing glasses. His new appearance starts to attract many people, girls start to think of him as attractive and handsome, which makes Kyoko jealous of Izumi.

Yuki Yoshikawa's Personality

Yuki has a playful personality. She almost always acts naive and childish. She is easy to talk to, so she can easily make friends, as she did with Izumi Miyamura. However, Yuki often tries to hide her negative feelings, especially in front of her friends, by pretending that she is fine and doesn't care about any given situation. Kyoko notes that she always hides behind a smile and doesn't want others to know her true feelings. Not all of her friends know that Yuki can be very jealous in parts. Once, when Sakura Kono was with Tohru Ishikawa, a guy Yuki clearly has romantic feelings for, she acted coldly towards Sakura. She tries her best to hide any jealous feelings she has towards Tohru and not let her jealousy get the better of her, feeling pathetic for thinking about her bad actions. It is possible that Yuki has an inferiority complex, as she sometimes gives out negative sentences such as pity. It is implied that she simply underestimates herself at times.

Yuki Yoshikawa's appearance

Yuki is a short, slender girl with light olive-green hair that is cut short and parted with bangs. She has large yellow eyes and thin eyebrows. Yuki is most often seen wearing her school uniform, which consists of a grey sweater and sometimes a blazer. She likes to hide her arms in long sleeves, which are noticeably stretched out due to her frequent pulling them up.

Toru's Personality

Toru was shown to be a jealous person, looking at Miyamura with envy when he started to get close to Hori. Tohru can be short-tempered. In Chapter 112, he punched Miyamura when he continued to reject the idea of Hori being in love with Miyamura. However, he regretted losing control of himself. He eventually becomes one of Miyamura's close friends and accepts the fact that he and Hori are dating. Thor is usually portrayed as an outlier among the other characters, with his only quirk being his dreams.

Toru's appearance

Toru is a tall, athletic young man with pale skin. He has short purple hair that is parted on the right side of his face and thin eyebrows. He is often described as "cool". Toru's casual school outfit consists of a white blouse with rolled-up sleeves, a red tie, and gray pants. He sometimes wears a school sweater or blazer. He can also be seen wearing a pair of black sports bracelets with a bright pink stripe down the middle.

Kyoko Hori

Kyoko was born to Kyosuke and Yuriko Hori as the first and only daughter. As a child, she met and befriended Kakeru Sengoku, a boy whose father attended the same school as Kyoko's parents. Kyoko often bullied and teased Kakeru, eventually causing him to become afraid of Hori. As a child, Kyoko was quite aggressive. According to Kyosuke, she got this trait from her mother. At some point, her parents became busy with work and were rarely home. After Kyoko's younger brother, Sota, was born, she spent a lot of time at home, looking after her younger brother. As a result, she did not have time to hang out with her friends after school.

Hori's Personality

Kyoko is an energetic and popular girl, someone who always creates a happy atmosphere around her. She is hardworking in all areas of life, and according to Izumi, Kyoko scored over 90% on all of her tests. When she is nervous, the girl becomes prone to violence. When cleaning ears, cutting nails, or massaging, she does it aggressively, which makes people around her afraid. Miyamura also mentioned that the cotton swab in Hori's hands looks like a weapon. In some ways, Hori can be a masochist when it comes to Miyamura. Whenever he changes his personality to a bad boy (at her request), Hori enjoys the treatment and feels better afterwards. This is probably because Miyamura is always calm and doesn't raise his voice at anyone. She also gets very jealous when girls start flirting with Miyamura. In some chapters of the manga, she is referred to as a "hannya" or "jealousy goddess". As the story progresses, she starts to care less about other girls talking to Miyamura. Instead, she starts to think that he might like men. She once told him that it's okay to like a girl, but not a man.

Hori's Home Look

At home, Kyoko wears casual and simple clothes, such as simple T-shirts, leggings, or jeans. She wears her hair in a ponytail and sometimes pins it up. She wears an apron when cooking.
