Makorra is a Het ship between Mako and Korra in the The Legend of Korra series.

Korra first met Mako when his brother Bolin brought her into the arena to watch the match. Mako was irritated when Bolin brought another one of this "crazy fan girls" in and was not surprised or impressed when he found out that she was the avatar. At the next match, his teammate Hasook did not show up and Korra ended up serving as a substitute for him, which Mako was initially against. However, Korra ended up helping them win the match and Mako was finally impressed with her. Korra ended up joining their team and Mako later gazed towards Korra from across Yue Bay while Korra gazed towards him.

Bolin was eventually kidnapped by the Equalists and Korra decided to go help Mako find his brother. While they were looking for him, Mako confided his dark past in Korra. They eventually saved Bolin, but then Mako met a woman named Asami Sato and they started to date. Korra was jealous when she saw them together. After seeking advice from Pema, Korra decided to confess her feelings for Mako but she was rejected by him. She ended up going out on a date with Bolin instead but Mako later confronted her because he was afraid that she was going to hurt his brother. Korra instead accused him of being jealous because he likes her. Later, Mako finally did admit that he had feelings for Korra but was confused because he was already dating Asami and Korra kissed him. Mako returned the kiss but found out that Bolin was watching. Bolin ran off crying and Mako and Korra argued about whose fault it was. (read more...)
