Makoto Kabara

Makoto Kabara is one of Rito Obsidian's friends.

Appearance
Makoto has helmet-like, green-lined violet hair, with two horn-like green spikes on the forehead. He also has round hazel eyes.

His casual outfit is a t-shirt bearing a stylized lightning, shorts, and sneakers. He also often brings along a toy visor tied with a string around the neck, hanging over his chest or back interchangeably. He always puts it on when about to Duel, in a reference to s.

His Duel Disk is the three-segment-bladed Xyz Dimension model.

Personality
Makoto is a cheeful, caring, and sometimes easily excitable kid, but not to the point of the hot-blooded Runo. He's a huge fan of Sentai shows, as evidenced by his visor, which combined with his hair looks like the classic full-head mask typical of the genre.

His "" Deck also references this. He likes to do little poses when he Summons a "", and has the habit of declaring "Super Quantum Combination, Xyz Change!" when Summoning "Super Quantal Mech King".

Etymology
Makoto's name means "morality, righteousness, justice, honor" with the Kanji used, reflecting his heroic-like appearance and personality.

Rito Obsidian
Makoto was the first kid who tried to befriend Rito at school, since the others tended to ignore her due to her quietness. It took a while for the Xyz counterpart child to warm up to him, but they became close friends, and now he's Rito's most intimate confidant besides her family, together with Runo.

While Makoto's behavior tends to be deemed childish by their schoolmates, Rito says he finds him cute and amusing, so he often makes little scenes to try to make her laugh and cheer up.

Makoto is also one of the few students that isn't scared by her episodes of pseudo-awakening, and every time it happens he's the first to restrain her and try to calmher down.

Deck
Makoto uses the "" Deck, in keeping with his Super Sentai/Power Ranger motifs.
