Tooru Ishikawa (石川 透 Ishikawa Tōru?) is a supporting character in the Horimiya series. He attends Katagiri Senior High School, where he is enrolled in Class 3-1 and is a close friend of Izumi Miyamura.

He was initially known to have a crush on Kyouko Hori early on in the series.

Appearance[]

Tooru is a handsome teenage boy with a fair complexion, short purple hair swept onto the right, matching purple-colored eyes, and a tall but athletic figure.

At school, Tooru is most often seen in his school uniform, consisting of a white button-up shirt with sleeves rolled up to his elbows and dark-colored slacks. Occasionally, he wears his school's sweater or blazer, accompanied by black athletic wristbands detailed with a hot-pink stripe in the middle.

Personality[]

Initially, Tooru seems to be a very jealous type of person which is shown when he glares at Izumi Miyamura when he talks to Kyouko Hori.

He has a very explosive temper, as seen in Chapter 12 when he ends up fighting with Miyamura when he (Miyamura) kept waving off Ishikawa's constant pressing on of his theories on whether or not Hori has a crush on Miyamura. However, he expresses regret about losing his temper after the fight.

Ultimately, he becomes one of Miyamura's closest friends and accepts that he and Hori have started dating.

Tooru is commonly shown as "the normal one" out of all the characters, with his only odd characteristic being his dreams.

Relationships[]

Kyouko Hori[]

When Tooru is first introduced, it is clear that he has a crush on Hori. Although he tries to hide it, even Izumi Miyamura, who usually acts clueless about love, was the first to notice. After Hori rejects him, he does not talk with her for a while, and when she tries to question him about Miyamura's first name, he runs away in tears.

Despite this, he remains close friends with both Hori and Miyamura. Even though he has accepted Hori and Miyamura's relationship, he still appears to have lingering feelings for Hori, occasionally making him depressed or confused. Eventually, even these lingering feelings vanish as he begins his relationship with Yuki Yoshikawa.

Izumi Miyamura[]

Tooru sees Miyamura as a close friend and possibly a love rival. Although he seems to have given up on Kyouko Hori so that Miyamura can pursue her, it's evident he has some lingering feelings (as mentioned above). They are seen to be quite close, as Tooru was the first to know and discover Miyamura's secrets (albeit both his tattoos and ear piercings).

He isn't afraid to laugh or tease when something embarrassing happens to Miyamura. But he is also slightly jealous of Miyamura sometimes, which takes form in his nightmares, where he repeatedly kills Miyamura.

Yuki Yoshikawa[]

As Kyouko Hori and Izumi Miyamura began their relationship as their best friends, Ishikawa and Yoshikawa also began to spend more time together. This leads them to become closer until they develop romantic feelings for each other. Although neither of them is aware of the other's feelings (Ishikawa believes that Yoshikawa doesn't like him, and Yoshikawa believes that Ishikawa likes Sakura Kouno), they agree to pretend like they're dating, ostensibly so that Yoshikawa can reject Akane Yanagi's confession.

Things come to a head once Kouno confesses to Ishikawa. Yoshikawa, thinking that Ishikawa will accept Kouno and they start dating, becomes depressed. Just as Yoshikawa is about to resign herself to this, Ishikawa tells her that he would turn down Kouno and that he wants to continue being with Yoshikawa.

In chapter 110 it is confirmed that they are dating, we could see this by tooru saying "she's cheating!".

Sakura Kouno[]

At first, Ishikawa is attracted to Kouno, who is chasing after him. However, after spending much time with Yuki Yoshikawa, Ishikawa finds that he's more attracted to her than Kouno. Eventually, despite (or maybe because) Ishikawa and Yoshikawa pretending to be dating, Kouno finally finds the courage to confess her feelings to Ishikawa. While Kouno says she doesn't need a response and only confesses to satisfy herself, Ishikawa says he would have turned her down anyway.

Shū Iura[]

Ishikawa and Iura are childhood friends. Whenever Ishikawa isn't with Yuki Yoshikawa or Izumi Miyamura, there's a good chance he's with Iura. Having been together through elementary and middle school, Ishikawa is Iura's best friend and confidant and puts up with many of his jokes. However, because of this, Ishikawa tends to be extremely blunt with Iura, telling him to be quiet when he's too noisy (which is pretty often).

Kayo Yashiro[]

Yashiro is the helper of the Ishikawa's, who is shown to be taking good care of Tooru and asking him about Yuki Yoshikawa whenever he takes the schoolgirl home.
