ホリミヤ / Horimiya / Hori-san to Miyamura-kun

What happens when the school's seemingly perfect girl, Kyouko Hori—brilliant, beautiful, and the undisputed queen of popularity—collides with the guy everyone writes off as a drab, gloomy "loser fanboy," Izumi Miyamura? You'd expect awkward silences, maybe even a quick dismissal, right? But hold onto your seat because Horimiya is about to shatter every single expectation!

The truth is, appearances are deceiving, and nobody knows that better than these two. By day, Hori is the unreachable campus idol; by night, she's a secretly plain-Jane homebody, juggling chores and family life. And Miyamura? Far from the quiet, uninteresting wallflower, he's a fiercely independent individual, liberally pierced, tattooed, and downright gorgeous underneath his school facade! When a chance encounter brings a very different Miyamura to Hori's doorstep, their worlds—and your heart—are about to get turned upside down. They discover a profound connection born from shared secrets, proving that every person is a mosaic of different facets, just waiting to be understood.
