===Backstory===
[[File:Emi running.png|thumb|Emi running|195x195px]]
Eight years ago, at the age of eleven, Emi was in a fatal car accident that robbed her not only of her legs, but also of her father. With her convalescence taking over a year, she was held back a grade and as such is the oldest of Hisao's five potential love interests, despite physically appearing to be the youngest. She underwent extensive rehabilitation during this time, including relearning how to walk, which was overseen by the [[Nurse]], hence their friendly relationship. 

=== Act 1 - Life Expectancy ===
[[File:Emi knockeddown large.jpg|thumb|Emi after crashing into [[Hisao Nakai]]|196x196px]]
Emi is running in the halls and crashes into [[Hisao Nakai]]. At first, Hisao is scared for his heart, remembering his cardiologist's warning to "not get hit in the chest". She apologizes profusely and then runs off again. Later, the Nurse confronts Hisao about his lack of exercise. Hisao asks him how he knows and he confesses to using "a spy" (who is later revealed to be Emi) to keep tabs on him.

Early in the morning, Hisao goes to the track to jog and finds Emi. If Hisao agrees to go running, he meets Emi at the track again and goes for a jog. She provokes him into a race, but he gets a heart murmur and collapses. Emi helps him to the nurse, where she gets a talking-to. Emi invites him to lunch to make up for it. Hisao joins Emi and Rin on the roof. Emi talks non-stop while Rin says little in her quasi-stoic way.

On the day before the festival, Emi grabs Hisao and uses him for help getting art supplies for Rin, who is still working on the mural. She runs out of Prussian Blue paint and either Emi goes alone to fetch some, or she takes Hisao with her. If the latter, Emi gets Hisao to agree to a physical training regimen with her.
