Character Description: Akemi
Akemi is a close school friend of Shuji, Chise, Atsushi, Take, and Yukari. She is Chise's best friend, and has had feelings for Shuji for a long time. She also has a sister, Satomi.
Akemi rides to school on her bike, and has a keychain identical to Chise's on her basket. She sometimes stops and walks for a bit with Chise and Shuji, but usually teases him about picking on Chise. At first glance, it seems that Shuji and Akemi don't get on well, but eventually it is revealed that there is much more to them than meets the eye. She was also on the same track team as Shuji
She was the one who convinced Chise to tell Shuji how she felt about him, and thus was the catalyst to the last love song in this series. Although she likes Shuji, she is the only person in the entire series to completely sacrifice her own feelings for someone else.
Eventually, she confesses to Shuji about her feelings, and Atsushi becomes her boyfriend before going off to war. Unfortunately, she confesses her feelings after she is critically injured during an earthquake, and dies in Shuji's arms in Episode 9: Akemi.
