Misaki's older brother, Takahiro, had to drop out of school after their parents passed away in order to support his younger sibling. Despite this setback, Takahiro remains deeply fond of Misaki and wishes him all the best on his college aspirations. In fact, it is Takahiro who will reach out to Usami to request tutoring for Misaki so that he can attend the college he desires. Although Takahiro is married, he has been described as dense due to his long-standing friendship with Usami. It was only after their transfer to a new company that Takahiro realized how deeply in love Usami was with him. Despite this revelation, Takahiro continues to look on at Misaki's happiness with joy, while Usami watches over Takahiro from the shadows.
