Makoto Ohno

**Makoto Ohno** (大野真, *Ōno Makoto*?) is a character in the anime *Diary of Our Days at the Backwater*. Referred to a Oono-senpai by Hina and Natsumi, she is the #2 at the breakwater club. Oono is by far the most reliable person at the club and almost acts like a mom to all of the members. She is the daughter of a fisherman so she is very knowledgeable about fish, cleaning and preparing them. She acts as the de-facto club chef.

She, along with Yuuki Kuroiwa, Hina Tsurugi and Natsumi Hodaka are recurring characters of the World Protection Security Agency series. She is the direct precursor of the late magical girl Sayaka Miki and the first of the two magical girls in the past to break Kyubey's contract before Madoka Kaname, the other being Yuuki Kuroiwa. Along with Yuuki she was an alumna of Mitakihara Middle School.

## Appearance

Makoto is a light-skinned girl who has a long black hair that is usually tied in a ponytail. She also wears a blue and white cap. She wears a sailor fuku uniform, black, glasses, grey knee-length socks, brown boots, and is always seen wearing a yellow life jacket whenever she goes fishing.

In the WPSA stories, she is seen wearing a golden necklace with a heart-shaped locket that has a blue-coloured semiquaver note in the middle of it with the words "Primo" engraved on it. This is revealed to be her erstwhile Soul Gem during her term as a magical girl.

When transformed into a magical girl form, she reverts back to becoming a 14-year-old girl, who loses most of her normal-looking appearance. She has a long blue hair, as well as green eyes. She wears a semiquaver hairpin. She is also seen wearing a blue strapless top, blue skirt, and a gold belt that is held by a silver buckle. She wears dark blue boots with white stockings on it. She wears a pair of shoulder-length white gloves. In the past, her Soul Gem was once located within her chest.

## Personality

Makoto acts as the "mother" to the members of the Breakwater Club. She is very knowledgeable and reliable to the group. Despite her proficiency in fishing, Makoto cannot swim, hence the reasoning for her wearing a life jacket whenever she goes fishing. In spite of this shortcoming, however, she is not deterred at being part of the fishing club.

## Powers and Abilities

As an erstwhile magical girl known as **Operetta Fortissimo**, Makoto uses a scimitar in battle and tends to fight in a graceful manner, in contrast to the aggressive and hot-headed Yuuki. She is also known to manipulate music notes as weapons. She is also capable of healing magic, as well, but its limitation is that it cannot heal severe injuries and medical conditions.

Makoto's witch form was also Oktavia von Seckendorff, much like Sayaka.

## Relationships

### Yuuki Kuroiwa

Makoto's senpai, who is the president of the Breakwater Club. It is once shown that Yuuki had dreamt that she would be a perfect wife for her, which make her instantly blush.

In the WPSA stories, it is revealed that Yuuki, who was a magical girl, was the partner of Makoto, who was also a magical girl, as well. They are the only two magical girls in the world to circumvent Kyubey's magical contracts before Madoka Kaname, with a greater cost of their friends sacrificing themselves after being turned into Witches.

In terms of battle, Yuuki is her complete opposite, as Yuuki is often known for up, close, and personal combat abilities that are often reckless and violent in nature, in contrast to Makoto's graceful, elegant, and stylish combat abilities.

She and Yuuki were once former students in Mitakihara Middle School.
