Keita Iijima (飯島敬太 Iijima Keita) was known to love comic books. Shinji Mimura viewed him as a coward and didn't trust him because when they both went to the centre of town together Keita let Shinji get mugged (though Shinji beat up the muggers) and didn't even try to help him. Keita is described as being nice enough but he wasn't a loyal friend as he was a coward.
