Makoto Inukai is a vibrant, orange-haired student with crimson eyes, radiating cheerful energy and a passion for music. Unbeknownst to her, the spirit of the Great Dragon dwells within, its power surging through her flute melodies to awaken mystical energies across Kamitsumihara. Her music stirs profound emotions in listeners and evolves into a tactical asset in battles, synergizing with Kikyo’s magic to repel supernatural threats.

Her dynamic with Momoka Kawakabe anchors her journey, defined by playful affection—frequent embraces, vocal admiration for Momoka’s beauty, and a stubbornly kept memento of Momoka’s underwear, much to the latter’s chagrin. Makoto fiercely shields Momoka from harm, confronting those who upset her and dissolving into anxious tears when their bond is threatened. She once begged Tōka to spare Momoka pain and soothed her after perilous ordeals, balancing humor and heartfelt devotion.

Though well-meaning, her exuberance sparks awkward antics: proposing a sisterly pact with Momoka or eagerly declaring intent to claim Momoka’s “skating virginity” during a school festival. These blunders contrast her innate kindness, often diffused by accidental comedic charm. Shōko Rokujō’s bold advances add nuance to her story, leaving Makoto flustered yet oblivious to the romantic undertones of their encounters.

Initially, the dragon’s power torments her through nightmares and volatile emotions, but she gradually masters it alongside Kikyo, shifting from a carefree musician to a pivotal warrior in Kamitsumihara’s hidden wars. While her past remains shrouded, her ties to the Kamiazuma clan weave her into age-old prophecies, where her musical gifts ignite dormant legends and shape rituals critical to the realm’s survival.
