Eichi Sakurai was Mitsuki's childhood friend. They were both at an orphanage in Japan together. Mitsuki was very shy until she met him there. Eichi went up to her and greeted her while she sat alone.

One say, a couple came to adopt a child. They chose Eichi. On the day that Eichi left, they took a plane ride to America where they were going to live. He left and told Mitsuki that he loved her. But Mitsuki could not say anything.

In the series, Eichi is only seen in Mitsuki's mind as a memory. In the manga, we find out that he died in a plane crash and Mitsuki knows it because she saw it on the news. In the anime, Mitsuki goes to America and learns that Eichi died in a car crash. So, no matter what, Mitsuki won't be able to tell Eichi that she loves him, too.
