Shinichi then becomes more aware of his surroundings and excels in sports like basketball. All of that starts to change after being formally introduced to and acquainted with Migi, though he is understandably horrified at first. However, he is also considered a bit of a pushover and a wimp, due to his awkwardness and paralyzing fear of bugs. Initially, Shinichi is a thoughtful and nice person who cares a great deal for those around him. Some time during the one-year timeskip, he reverts back to his original hairstyle. He claims to like the new look because it "looks more balanced" - symbolizing that he is no longer merely a human, and also referring to his newfound calmness and mental fortitude.Īfter a confrontation with Gotou, he gains a new smaller scar over his right eye. After Chapter 17 of the manga, or Episode 7 of the anime, Shinichi begins spiking his fringe upwards. He becomes more muscular, and in the anime, he removes his glasses, since he no longer needs them.

This repeats throughout the manga.Īfter Chapter 12 of the manga, or Episode 5 of the anime, Izumi is left with a large scar on the center of his chest and back. For example, when he first meets Migi, he has a T-shirt that says "Misery Confusion". He also tends to wear T-shirts with strangely appropriate words written on them. He usually wears his school uniform, consisting of a white shirt and a blue blazer, while in the manga he wears a Gakuran, an all-black, old-style Japanese school uniform, with a white shirt underneath. In the anime, his hair and eyes are brown, and he initially wears large square-rimmed glasses. In the manga he has short black hair and brown eyes, and is mentioned to have a somewhat feminine facial structure. Shinichi is of average height with a small build.
