Is Kyoko Hori a Tsundere?

Unfortunately to those who expected that she is, Kyoko Hori is not a tsundere. Since the beginning of the series, she has shown how energetic and warm she is towards her friends and family. Although she can be violent whenever she is embarrassed or nervous, this does not mean that she is a tsundere.

Kyoko showed how hard-working she is throughout the series. She works hard to ace her tests and extra-hard whenever she helps with the household chores. Since her parents are always busy, Kyoko took the role of her brother’s parent and took care of him on her own. This made her different from her usual image at school.

A part of her is also a sadist masochist as she enjoys whenever Miyamura tries to become an abusive boyfriend. She feels refreshed to see a different side of him so she usually requests him to flip his personality. Miyamura tries his best to make her happy despite being uncomfortable with being an abusive boyfriend.

As a girlfriend, Kyoko can be the jealous type. She used to be jealous whenever girls would talk to Miyamura, considering that everyone used to outcast him. She can turn into an Ice Queen and break pens whenever this happens. Eventually, she was able to overcome this and feared that Miyamura would fall for a man.
