Daisuke Nagase
Daisuke Nagase (長瀬 大輔, Nagase Daisuke?) is one of Yu's classmates. Despite his wild exterior, he is actually a friendly teenager who initially acts shy towards girls. Daisuke was humiliated during a break-up with his middle school girlfriend. This caused him to not put his full effort into anything, including soccer, since he was afraid that it would be all for naught. Through a couple of verbal fights with Kou and Yu, Daisuke realizes that he was giving up on everything too soon and he would rather quit than meet with failure. After realizing this, he speaks with his ex-girlfriend and gains the closure he needed by explaining how he felt. Daisuke thanks Kou and Yu for their help. He and Kou both serve as the player's Social Link to Strength (剛毅, Gōki?); in the anime, Kou Ichijo serves as this link. Daisuke is voiced by Tomokazu Sugita in the game, as well as the anime, and by David Vincent in English. He is portrayed by Motohiro Ota in the musical.
