Takafumi Sakagami

Takafumi's parents once planned on getting divorced and fought over who would have custody over their children. At that time, Tomoyo didn't care how it ended, but Takafumi didn't want to go with either parent. He ran away and threatened to jump into running water if his parents were getting divorced. He went through with his threat, even though he didn't really want to die, nor did he understand the rationale behind it. Nevertheless, his jump united the Sakagamis into a family. He nearly died during the ordeal but was eventually discharged from the hospital when spring came. After being discharged, the entire Sakagami family walked down the road with cherry blossom trees planted on either side of it. Takafumi was in a wheelchair, while Tomoyo pushed it forward. While walking, he says, "I want to come and see these cherry blossom trees every year with everyone, as a family." Tomoyo and her family felt the same way.

At the end of Tomoyo's arc, Takafumi starts attending Hikarizaka Private High School as a freshman while his sister is already in third grade. Both of them can be seen making their way into school under the cherry blossoms.
