what did miyamura looked like when souta was a teen

When Souta is a teen in Horimiya , Miyamura basically looks the same as he does during the main high‑school story, just a bit more mature and “settled” into adulthood.

Context: Miyamura’s Usual Look

Izumi Miyamura is characterized throughout the series as a slim young man with black hair and blue eyes, along with multiple ear piercings and tattoos. At school he famously keeps his hair long and down, wears glasses, and dresses heavily to hide his piercings and tattoos, which makes him appear gloomy and distant to classmates.

Outside of school, he ties his hair up, drops the glasses, and doesn’t bother hiding his piercings or tattoos, which gives him a much more open and attractive appearance. Over time, he cuts his hair shorter, leaving his piercings visible and showing off his more handsome face.

Time Skip: When Souta Is a Teen

By the time Souta appears as a tall teenage boy in the time skip, Miyamura is a young adult who has already gone through his main visual transformation.

  • He keeps a relatively simple, neat hairstyle (shorter than his early long, shoulder‑length hair) so that his ears and piercings are visible.
  • His piercings remain part of his look, but they read more as an established style rather than a “rebellious” phase.
  • He wears casual young‑adult clothing or simple work/school‑appropriate outfits, fitting the everyday domestic scenes with Hori and Souta as they’ve grown closer like a family.

Forum and fan reactions often note that grown‑up Souta “looks like Miyamura,” which mainly refers to their similar slim build, calm expression, and generally gentle vibe rather than an exact copy of Miyamura’s piercings.

How Miyamura and Teen Souta Visually Compare

Here’s a quick side‑by‑side description:

[8] [6][4] [8] [4][6] [8] [2][4] [3][8] [6][4] [3][8] [2][4]
Aspect Miyamura (when Souta is a teen) Teen Souta
Build Slim young adult, soft but slightly mature presence. Tall, slender teenage boy.
Hair Shorter, neater black hair, no longer the very long “gloomy” style. Messy gray hair, similar to Hori’s features when younger, later resembling his father Kyousuke.
Face Blue eyes, gentle and slightly feminine features, visible piercings. Olive‑colored eyes, soft teen face often compared to Miyamura’s vibe by fans.
Style Casual, relaxed, not hiding tattoos or piercings at home. High‑school uniform (white shirt, blazer, dark pants, necktie given by Miyamura).
Overall Impression Warm, approachable young adult who’s grown out of his gloomy middle‑school image. Teen boy who visually and emotionally echoes Miyamura as his “big brother.”

Mini Story Angle

If you imagine a scene from that time skip:
Souta comes home in his uniform, tall and confident, with the necktie Miyamura gave him, while Miyamura is already there chatting with Hori in casual clothes. Miyamura’s hair is short, his piercings visible, and he looks more like a gentle older brother than the gloomy outsider he used to be, mirroring how Souta has grown into someone who carries part of Miyamura’s calm, kind presence.

TL;DR

When Souta is a teen, Miyamura looks like a slim, neat‑haired young adult with visible piercings and a gentle, mature face — essentially his “final” look after he cuts his hair and stops hiding his tattoos, making him feel like the grown‑up counterpart to how Souta has turned out.
