Takemichi and Mikey never meet in the original timeline. They only meet by chance when during one of the trips to the past, Takemichi challenges Kiyomasa to a 1v1. Noting Takemichi's bravery, Mikey takes an interest in him by saying that Takemichi will be his friend from now on. From then on, they become very close friends. Takemichi initially fears Mikey for his fearsome prowess, but comes to respect him after he learns his true nature. Saving Mikey from corruption is one of Takemichi's priorities, as Mikey plays a significant role in the happenings of the present timeline. He gradually gains Mikey's complete trust and support and even becomes guiding light for him.

Ken Ryuguji
Takemichi and Draken meet at the same time Takemichi and Mikey meet: during the underground battle club against Kiyomasa. Takemichi is similarly fearful of Draken as he is with Mikey, but also comes to harbor the same respect for him after understanding his real personality and character. After finding out that one of the causes for the present tragedy is Draken's death, Takemichi makes it one of his goals to protect Draken, which he manages to accomplish. Takemichi's bravery earns Draken's utmost respect and appreciation, as he is willing to set his immense pride aside to bow towards Takemichi.

The relationship between Takemichi and Kisaki were largely one-sided. As a child, Takemichi saved a young Hinata Tachibana from bullies. This caused Hinata to have a long-lasting crush on him and incurred the jealousy of Kisaki, who liked Hinata. Takemichi only realizes who Kisaki is in the present when Naoto Tachibana informs him that he has become the head of the Tokyo Manji Gang. Since this revelation, the two have been effectively mortal enemies, with Kisaki attempting to force Mikey down a path of Darkness and Takemichi a path of light. Their views of each other only worsen with time, as Kisaki continuously tries to overthrow Toman while takemichi stands in his way each time. However, despite their deep-seated hatred for each other, Kisaki still holds Takemichi in the highest respect, referring to him by the moniker of "Hero" and considers him on equal standing to himself. Takemichi likewise respects Kisaki enough that he broke down into tears at being unable to finally settle things with him after the battle against Tenjiku.
