Horimiya is a manga series that was adapted from the 2008 webcomic by HERO, Hori-san to Miyamura-kun. It is currently being serialized on Monthly G Fantasy and published by Square Enix. It had also been adapted into OVA by the title Hori-san to Miyamura-kun -Shingakki- in 2012.
The story revolves upon the meeting of two characters, Hori, who seems to be a popular high school girl yet a hard-working girl who do the chores at home, and Miyamura, who looks like a bookworm, but in reality, a friendly boy who is actually incompetent in studies with the addition of having tattoos and piercings in his body. The two may look different yet quite similar at some points.
