Makoto Andou is a 15-year-old girl robot magical girl. She looks like an elementary school girl who was turned into a robot. She works part-time at a convenience store and has a tough life, almost like a homeless person. Makoto is super practical and always thinks about what she can gain. She refuses to do anything she doesn’t want to do and is always looking for new ways to make money. Her magical ability is to randomly use one of over 444 million "future gadgets" per day, but she never knows what she’ll get. The look of her magical girl form wasn’t even designed by her—it was chosen when she played someone else’s game. She may look scary to others, but inside she’s just a regular girl with feelings.
Makoto Andou has a pure white robot body made of something called Magicalium Alloy.
She has red eyes with a cross in them.
She wears a backpack that looks like a school bag.
Her backpack is a booster, letting her fly, and she has weapon racks at her sides to hold gadgets.
She looks like a small girl who became a robot, which sometimes scares people.
Makoto is a realist who always puts profit first.
She has a motto: "I will never do anything I don’t want to do," and she never breaks it, no matter what.
She’s clever and can quickly figure out what kind of person someone is.
Makoto only does things for money or benefit, and dislikes anything she doesn’t want to do.
Even though she seems tough, she gets hurt inside when people are scared of her looks.
She’s not evil—she helps people as a magical girl and has even given her magic items away to help children.
Makoto always uses a typical teen girl’s way of talking.
But when she transforms, she speaks like a robot, using stiff words.
If she is surprised or panics, her normal self comes out, even when transformed.
Makoto dropped out of school and now works part-time at a convenience store.
She mostly lives among homeless people.
If her friend’s apartment is free, she stays there.
The magical girl appearance wasn’t her design.
Her friend made it to match her boyfriend’s taste, and Makoto just happened to play the Magical Girl Raising Project game for her friend to level up.
That’s how Makoto was chosen as a magical girl by Fav.
She is good at role-playing as a "22nd-century robot magical girl," even if she didn’t pick the look.
Makoto’s magic lets her use one random "useful gadget from the future" per day.
She can pick from 444,444,444 different gadgets, but she never knows what she’ll get.
The item only lasts for that day and is used up.
Some items are strange or only useful for very special things, like an “Insect Gender Checker,” a pen that lets you draw manga in a day, or an automatic cleaning machine.
Sometimes weapons come out, and sometimes she gets super useful items.
If another magical girl, Shadow Gale, upgrades her, Makoto can become a giant version called "Magicaloid 555,” with even more items—up to 55,555,555,555,555,555,555 possibilities.
She takes the item from pouches at her sides in the anime.
Makoto sells her random magic gadgets at very high prices, usually to the friendly Nana Habutae, who always wants to help people.
She picks Naoko Yamamoto as her mentor, because she knows Naoko won’t make her do anything she hates.
She avoids working with Nana Habutae, who might try to force her to do good deeds she doesn’t want to do.
She sometimes stays over at friends’ places to avoid sleeping outside.
Makoto appears more in short stories than in the main novel.
In the manga, she shows up earlier and is less confident, becoming an assistant to Naoko Yamamoto from the start.
In the manga, Makoto is more timid and unable to stand up to stronger people.
In the anime, the director thought Makoto should grab her gadgets from side pouches for easier animation, instead of reaching for her backpack.
In Magical Girl Raising Project: Restart, a monster appears that looks a lot like Makoto.
Makoto’s Magical Girl Selection
Makoto was just helping her friend by playing a video game called Magical Girl Raising Project.
She leveled up her friend’s character in exchange for a place to stay.
But then, Fav chose her as a magical girl, and suddenly her life changed.
Her magical girl appearance was not her choice but was actually designed for her friend’s boyfriend.
Life as a Realistic Magical Girl
Even after becoming a magical girl, Makoto keeps her real-life habits.
She only does things if she’ll gain from them, often selling her magic gadgets for a lot of money, especially to Nana Habutae.
She picks tough magical girls to learn from, mostly to avoid being pushed into things she hates.
Deep down, though, Makoto is kind—she has given magic items away to help others, like giving a birthday present to a child who lost theirs.
Random Powers and How She Uses Them
Each day, she can use only one gadget from the future from her huge collection.
The twist is, she never knows what it will be!
Sometimes the gadget is silly, sometimes it’s very helpful, and sometimes it can be used as a weapon.
When transformed, she role-plays as a robot, but if she gets scared or surprised, her normal teenage talk comes out.
Appearances in Different Media
Makoto isn’t as strong-willed in the manga as in the novel.
The anime changed how she gets her gadgets, making it easier to show on screen.
In side stories, she appears much more, showing her daily life and adventures.
