Miki, bar none. Would've loved to know more about her. Like how she lost that left hand of hers. Just seeing her "kitsune" face gives me the perfect idea of how she sounds like, for example. Black Lagoon's Revy, when she's not raging, strongly comes to mind.
While Kenji's my favorite, I quite liked the Nurse during the Emi route. I liked their interactions together.
Also, maybe this was actually said somewhere in the story and I'm an idiot for missing it, but are Emi's mom and the Nurse dating? She mentions someone texting her during the track meet, and thinks its immature, which sounds like something the Nurse would do. The Nurse also mentions he only saw some of the events Emi ran during the track meet because he had some business to take care of during the end, causing him to miss the same events Emi's mom did.

"They leave. Because they should, or they find someone else. And some of them...some of them, forget me. I suppose in the end....they break my heart." - Tenth Doctor talking about his companions.
Mine were Akira and Muto although I have to say that I also liked the Nurse and Yuuko - so it is either the first two or the latter two.
It was a rather impulsive decision to vote for Akira and Muto.
That's the lamest excuse ever why someone shouldn't be allowed to date someone else.. And I have horrible experiences of that subject from the past, where I wasn't allowed to be together with the girl I loved from the bottom of my heart, only because her parents thought that I'm too old for her and it ended up breaking the lines between us (I was 24 and she was 17). For me, age has never been more than a number on a paper that slightly shows how experienced in life someone might be.
Besides, Yuuko doesn't seem that old anyways.. Especially considering how she's still trying to get to university and all..
Hanako = Shizune = Rin = Lilly = Emi
I just don't like categorizing people. Even if Hanako will always be the dearest for me, I still prefer if they all get equal share of love.
The answer to "why didn't x get a path" is always, without exception, "she was not on the original sketch as a heroine".
The original sketch was a tether. Any extra paths that were included would have meant art assets and writing that would have to be made in addition to the pre-existing heroine requirements. In the end, that work was better put into the existing heroines rather than taken away for a new pathed character.

It is heavily implied, but not stated outright.
Btw, the nurse is my favourite side character, followed by Mutou to my surprise. He gets some really good scenes in the paths beyond Act 1, especially in Emi's and Shizune's.
Miki would be third if we could pick three.
