Movie
Description
Saku Hagita is a male student from Nagano who forges a close friendship with Kakeru Naruse after his transfer. He possesses messy brownish-tan hair, grey eyes, and wears reddish-brown glasses during high school, standing 174 cm tall. Later, he switches to contact lenses and parts his hair. His blood type is AB.
Academically inclined and introspective, Hagita prefers reading manga and watching shows like "Yuugata Get." He demonstrates thoughtfulness by gifting Kakeru manga for his birthday. While generally calm and quiet, he delivers dry humor and displays occasional social awkwardness, such as drawing fake abs during a sports festival or bluntly stating others' romantic feelings. He openly acknowledges being the slowest runner in his grade, sometimes even setting goals to finish last in competitions.
Hagita receives letters from his future self, joining Naho and others in efforts to prevent Kakeru's suicide. Initially oblivious to social nuances, he matures significantly, becoming more perceptive of his friends' emotions. He later comforts Suwa by emphasizing the importance of focusing on the present rather than past regrets involving Kakeru.
His relationship with Azusa Murasaka evolves from mutual teasing and denial of romantic feelings into marriage in the future timeline. During high school, Azusa frequently teases him about their potential coupling, which he consistently rebuffs despite subtle hints of affection. Their eventual marriage is acknowledged within the group, though Hagita dismisses immediate wedding plans when questioned.
Hagita plays a critical role in the plan to save Kakeru. On the night Kakeru contemplates suicide, Hagita deliberately crashes his bicycle to delay Kakeru from stepping into traffic, symbolizing the group's collective intervention. His actions, alongside his friends' unwavering support, contribute to Kakeru's decision to choose life. In the revised timeline where Kakeru survives, Hagita maintains his deep friendship with the group into adulthood, reflecting his enduring loyalty and personal growth.
