==Design==
Eiji has blonde hair that has a blue band wrapped around one of his bangs. He usually wears a yellow jacket that is never zipped up. Under the jacket, he wears a mostly black T-shirt with a single yellow stripe going vertically down. He mostly wears denim jeans and white shows. He has a love of the color yellow and most of his uniforms have the color yellow in them.
His school uniform is a traditional Japanese schoolboy uniform, though the top button of the coat is never done and the usually white inside of the suit is yellow. He keeps both his hairband and white shoes, which he almost never takes off.
During the summer, they start wearing a mostly white shirt that has a sunset on the chest. He also takes off his jacket and usually drapes it over his shoulder.
During the winter, he wears a very thick coat and a yellow jacket that covers his mouth. His eyes have grown a lot darker and his nose is far redder due to him having a flew through most of the winter.
While visiting the beach, they wear nothing but sandals and trunks that have yellow rings around the leg holes.
==Personality==
Eiji is a fairly happy-go-lucky and positive person. He enjoys meeting new people and attempts to make friends with most of them. Most people don't take to him easily, however, due to him having a lot of annoying tendencies, such as being somewhat perverted and having a tendency to talk a lot. These things have caused him to be picked on by a few of his peers, which combined with his own parents' neglect started building resentment and anger inside of him that he buried deep into his subconscious. However, his incredible will power to keep a smile on no matter what is what defines his arc throughout the game, with him promising to become a hero and build a world he'd be happy for his baby sister to live in.

==Trivia==
*In the Japanese version of the game, the antagonist Daizo Masuya refers to Eiji as a "Pot" (お釜), which is a Japanese insult for a gay person. This wouldn't make sense to Western audiences, so it was changed to the insult "homo".
**This raised a small amount of controversy due to the term's offensive nature.
