Makoto grew up right next door to Takeo and they've been close since childhood. He's also in the same class at school. The guy's genuinely handsome—almost annoyingly so—and has a habit of accidentally stealing every girl Takeo develops feelings for. Despite this recurring pattern, Makoto's actually a solid friend. He genuinely cares about Takeo's well-being and has shown he's willing to put his own happiness aside for the sake of their friendship.
