'''Mako''' (マコ) was a crippled young boy who was taken care by his little brother [[Aki]]. They lived in a village located near [[Jagi]]'s hideout. When Mako accidentally bumped into one of Jagi's henchman, Aki offered to sacrifice one of his legs to save him. Enranged by this act of brotherly love, Jagi (who was pretending to be his time and [[Kenshirō]] at the time) took Aki away from Mako and left him chained to a giant stone in the middle of the desert. When the real Kenshirō arrived at Mako's village carrying Aki's lifeless body, Mako, who was now sad and angry over Aki's death, attempted to kill Kenshirō with a bowgun. Kenshirō took the arrow to his chest and later used that very arrow as he was finishing off Jagi. | '''Mako''' (マコ) was a crippled young boy who was taken care by his little brother [[Aki]].

In the anime version of the story, Mako was established to be ill instead of crippled and was thinner than his manga counterpart. Before taking Aki away from him, Jagi strikes a vital point on Mako that brainwashes him into killing Kenshirō. The only way Kenshirō was able to reverse the effect of Jagi's vital point was to allow himself to be shot by Mako's arrow, since failure to accomplish his task would've resulted in Mako's death. Since Aki does not die in the anime version, the two brothers are reunited. | In the anime version of the story, Mako was established to be ill instead of crippled and was thinner than his manga counterpart.
