Makoto

About Makoto

Makoto is Chiaki's classmate, a boy so devoted to Haruka that he visits the Minami home disguised as a girl named Mako-chan, because that is the only version of him the household would let through the door. Rika Morinaga voices both Makoto and Mako-chan, and returns for Minami-ke: Korekara.

Appearance

As himself, Makoto is an ordinary elementary school boy. As Mako-chan, he wears a wig and girl's clothes well enough to pass completely at the Minami home, which says a lot about how long he has been doing it.

Personality

Makoto is earnest, lovestruck and entirely lacking in an exit strategy. The Mako-chan disguise began as a way to visit Haruka and became a second life, with its own friendships and risks, and he maintains it with the dedication of a spy who has forgotten why he infiltrated.

Background & Story

Makoto is in Chiaki's class at elementary school. His crush on Haruka Minami led him to cross dress as Mako-chan to spend time at the Minami home, where Haruka treats Mako-chan as a sweet younger friend. Chiaki's friend Yoshino may be one of the few who suspects the truth. He returns in Korekara with Rika Morinaga.

Key Relationships

• Chiaki Minami: His classmate. Mako-chan spends most visits orbiting Chiaki's household while aiming at Haruka.
• Haruka Minami: The object of his devotion. As Mako-chan he gets her kindness at close range, which only deepens the problem.
• Yoshino: Chiaki's friend, quietly perceptive, and one of the few who may know Mako-chan's secret.
