Talk:Itsuki Koizumi

Asperger's?

 * Itsuki may have Aspergers Syndrome, an Autistic spectrum disorder in which the person has a lack of depth perception, thinks only in either black or white, and has social complications in having trouble comunicating with others. It is not blatantly obvious that the person has it, other than observing behaviors. This is supported by the fact that Itsuki often gets too close to Kyon and often invades his personal space, does not openly comunicate effectively in getting his point across to people, (Kyon often has trouble understanding him and often needs clarification), and his opinions are very biased and he tends to think one thing or the other, and meets no where in between. He also tends to rarely confuse what actually happens with what he thinks is ideal or what he wants in his mind, leading to some of his philisophical speeches and judgements of Mikuru.

More controversial Koizumi stuff: Koizumi/Nagato
It is revealed that Koizumi actually does not have feelings for Haruhi but has feelings for Nagato instead.

Koizumi actually told Kyon that he has feelings for Nagato but in an unobvious manner.

The above was posted by an anonymous contributor.

The information didn't say which source it was coming from (something simple, like "in the Scheme" would have sufficed) nor was there any attempt to explain how this conclusion was derived from the "unobvious" information. PSH aka Kimera 757 (talk) contribs) 23:12, May 24, 2011 (UTC)

Overworked?
Koizumi, though putting up a mask of happiness and acting like he's fine, actually is likely working himself quite hard, with his activities in the 'Agency, the SOS brigade and general school life (especially if he really is the founder of the 'Agency', as  Kyoko Tach ibana says). Towards the end of the Sigh arc in the anime, Koizumi was talking to Kyon about how he would be responsible for ma king sure Haruhi knew that everything was part of her imagination. He mentions that if a closed space were to appear on top of the pressure from the play and the movie, he would probably collapse. He also appears very tired, and after he walks away and Kyon is thinking, you can see him collapsed on the sidewalk with some (presumably) worried strangers nearby.

Aso during the Sigh arc, he says several times that the play is very difficult for him, Since he has mentioned several times that he keeps up a mask to make Haruhi happy, it is likely he is also refferring to the facade he has at school, since he acts the same way around others as with Haruhi, though more likely to give at least some of his opinion - though how much of what he says are actually his opinions is in question.The clearest example of this is when he says quite seriously that Mikuru pretends to be helpless to get Kyon on her side, but then later says that he was joking.
