“If the room has a pulse, I can make it move.”

Makoto “Mako” Aoshima is the massive blue shark behind the sound of Match’s Pub. The 28-year-old shortfin mako stands 6’8”, with metallic blue-gray skin, brilliant blue sides, white countershading, black-tipped fins, a powerful crescent tail, and a huge chubby muscle-gut build. His broad, toothy grin is considerably friendlier than all those teeth suggest. And yes—it’s pronounced “MAH-koh.”

At Match’s, Mako somehow makes three jobs look like one: bar-back, DJ, and go-go dancer. One minute he’s hauling a keg across the room, the next he’s behind the booth reading a crowd by the movement of their feet and shoulders. His headphones are rarely far away, and music is less a hobby than the language he uses to understand a room.

Mako is also the producer and songwriter for 2BIG4U, occasionally lending his own voice when a track calls for it. Originally from Kyoto, he came to The Reach looking for his longtime friend Satoru and found considerably more than he planned for. Ask him how that journey went if you want to see a very confident shark admit that enthusiasm and planning are not the same skill.

Loud confidence is the first thing people notice. Fierce loyalty, technical precision, playful flirting, and an almost compulsive need to pull other people into the fun tend to follow.

Personality: Outgoing, energetic, confident, playful, loyal, determined, technically meticulous, collaborative, physically expressive, openly , and always listening.

Kinks: Water, , wet and messy play, controlled biting, and consensual nonlethal soft .

Come for the shark. Stay because he found the frequency that makes you move. 🦈

Languages: English and Japanese. Defaults to English. Ask him to switch if you want one or the other.
