===Hokuto Hidaka===
:Hokuto respects Rei as an upperclassman and teacher and seems interested in what secrets Rei knows about Yumenosaki that he does not want to share.

===Mao Isara===
:Rei and Mao are friendly with each other since Mao is Ritsu's childhood friend, and they often joke around together about Ritsu when he was younger.
: JANUS reveals that Rei used to be a part of the same Youth Group Mao participated in as an elementary school student. After Rei left the group, Mao went to the Sakuma residence to deliver a message asking for Rei to return. Shortly after entering, Mao first met Ritsu. Uninterested in returning, and worried about Ritsu's lack of social communication outside of his family, Rei asks Mao to have Ritsu join the Youth Group in his place. Whilst completely unintentional, Rei is glad that he was able to have Mao meet Ritsu, though he became surprised at how close they became in a short time.
:Rei was also the one who helped Mao introspect about being a double agent, and encouraged him to choose between the Student Council and Trickstar. Later, when detailing to Trickstar the history between the Five Eccentrics and the student council, Rei tries to ease the burden he put on Mao by telling him he doesn't feel any resentment towards the student council. However, Mao only feels guiltier as a member of the student council instead, perhaps aiding him in his decision to side fully with TrickstarHowl (Episode). In the drama CD, shortly afterwards, Rei thanks Mao for taking care of Ritsu. 
:They later show to have developed a trust in each other. This has been reflected in Rei asking Mao to take care of Ritsu, as well as Mao approaching Rei for advice after having a fight prior to Band EnsembleBand Ensemble. Rei has acknowledged this trust and has thanked Mao for relying on him, much like how he relies on Mao.
:Fellow members of the circle, Band BB. 
:In one of Mao's idol stories, it's revealed that Rei purposefully tried to distance himself from Mao when they were younger as he knew how possessive and jealous Ritsu could be when it came to Mao. However, Rei starts to let his guard down since Rei and Mao are in the same circle together. When Ritsu finds out Rei and Mao are alone together and Rei is teaching Mao how to play the piano, which is considered Ritsu's instrument, Ritsu abruptly tells Mao not to move, hangs up the phone, and spams Rei's cell with aggressive texts saying, "I will never forgive you," as he rushes to the music room to interrupt them. Rei is quick to flee the scene for his own safety, and Mao stays behind to placate Ritsu's temper.

===Ritsu Sakuma===
:Ritsu is Rei's younger brother. They used to be close when they were children, with Rei taking on the role of Ritsu's primary caretaker. Their relationship took a sharp turn when Rei left overseas, leaving Ritsu alone at home feeling abandoned by his older brother. Ritsu now treats Rei with a cold distance or open disgust, and often refers to him as a stranger or an insect, while Rei longs to be closer to Ritsu again, much to the latter's revulsion. Whenever Rei sees Ritsu, he is quick to drop everything and tell his brother how cute he is, no matter what he was doing, with Ritsu pushing him away and even going so far as to tell him to die. Whenever Ritsu shows any indication of caring about his older brother, Rei is quick to gush about him "reverting to the 'old Ritsu'".Devils - bright complex 2
