Shindou Shuichi

After losing his arm 16 years ago after being hit by a car, Shuichi continued on bravely in his life and had a long, successful music career. After retiring he was rehired by NG as a producer, and has been working as a producer for five years. He is surprisingly competent at his chosen career, though he has problems making it to meetings on time (if he makes it to the meetings at all). He is still living with and dating Yuki.

Yuki Eiri

Still a romance novelist, in recent years Yuki has become almost a hermit, seldom leaving his house except to go to therapy. The real reason is he is caring for his sickly nephew, Tokui, and acts as a father figure for the boy. He always wants to be home when the boy shows up and therefore gave up on having a life outside of his apartment. He is still dating Shuichi, and though he has made some progress with dealing with his past he still have a long way to go.

Seguchi Touma

After divorcing Mika he immediately began dating Sakano. He toured with Nittle Grasper for another 6 years after the birth of his twin children, but retired so he could care for his daughter and persue his new romance. He still runs NG Records and is training Amai as his heir for when he is finally ready to step down. He has also taken his inability to be with Yuki thanks to Shuichi out on Hiro.

Nakano Hiroshi

A manager at NG, he seems to be the brunt of Touma's rage toward Shuichi (as he promised Yuki he would leave Shuichi alone...directly, anyway). At first he and Shuichi were paired in handling Amai's career, but he was abruptly ordered to work with Kyousei Himeko in making annoying Chinese crossdresser Chen Quon Yue a success. After two failed relationships (with Ayaka and Suguru) Hiro pretty much pulled himself from the dating circuit and is a very lonely man as a result.

Sakuma Ryuuichi

Moved with K to America, where a woman abandoned a 3 year old boy who proved to be his son on his doorstep. At some point Ryuuichi was in a car accident that paralyzed him from the waist down and cost Kumagorou his leg, but his spirits haven't been dampened by this turn of events. In fact, he really seems no worse for wear.

K

While living with Ryuuichi in America he decided to adopt Ryuuichi's son, Alexander. As a result his own son, Michael, thought it meant his father wanted nothing to do with him and refused to have anything to do with him anymore. Upset by this unfortunate turn of events, he focused all of his attention and affection toward Alexander. K also lost most of his hair in an unfortunate cooking accident.

Ukai Noriko

After the death of her husband, Noriko focused on her daughter, trying her best to be as close to her as possible. She was responsible for Saki's big music break, but she also forgot to take Saki's feelings toward the situation into account. Though Noriko is close to her daughter, she can't help but feel that she did something wrong.

Aizawa Tachi

Lives in middle-class accomidations, having spent a year in a mental institution following a breakdown. He lives with Yamamoto Makoto ("Ma-kun" from ASK), but nothing is really known about this arrangement. He also claims that he didn't know he had a son.

Usami Ayaka

Married a man that her father chose and recently moved to Tokyo from Kyoto. She has five children with a sixth all the way, and all but one of them are girls. (The only boy is quite ill, much to the dismay of her husband.) She doesn't seem at all apologetic for the way that she treated Hiro in the past.

Fujisaki Suguru

After Bad Luck announced it's retirement Suguru broke up with Hiro and announced he was going to America alone to found himself. Instead he ended up having a run-in with Los Angeles's drug culture. After depleting his funds and getting into quite a bit of trouble, he finally ran away to New York hoping to get more money to feed his habit from his cousin or former manager. Instead he found himself dragged to Japan and placed in rehab by an angry but worried Touma.

Sakano

Underwent a sex change operation and is engaged to Touma. Retired from working at NG, lest it become detrimental to her health. Amai doesn't like her all that much and keeps trying to break her and Touma up.
