The impact created by Satoru Furuya was only temporary.

Chapter 11: Testing and Shock
Amidst all these people, two gazes stood out distinctly. One belonged to Furuya Satoru, who would eventually become Eijun's greatest rival.

Chapter 9: Eijun's Thoughts
“I am...”

Chapter 5: Change and Departure!
"Eijun, you've changed a bit, haven't you? You've become kinder, more handsome..."
"But, Eijun, ever since you came back from Tokyo, there's this faint sense of unfamiliarity about you..."
"Hey, Eijun, are you really going to Tokyo?"
"Tokyo... it's so far away... Eijun..."
"Eiju...

Hmm...
As for Yui, no doubt if...
