In the 2008 season he played in almost all games and the team was promoted to J1 League. In 2009 season, he got eight goals while defender. The 2010 season competed in all league matches and was elected the league’s best eleven. In addition, in this season Makino did not receive yellow card and red card.
1. FC Köln
In December 2011, Makino participated in the practice of Borussia Dortmund and TSG 1899 Hoffenheim in Germany, but there were no offers from both clubs. However, Volker Finke, director of the Urawa Reds Diamonds from 2009 to 2010, served as the sports director of FC Köln and he made Makino join 1. FC Köln. But this season, he just played in five league games. But this season, he just played in five league matches. The situation did not change in the 2011 – 2012 season, he only participated in the league game of only three matches.
Urawa Red Diamonds
In January 2012, Makino, who could hardly enter the match in FC Köln, transferred to Urawa Red Diamonds for loan. The coach of Urawa was Mihailo Petrović who was the coach when he was playing in Sanfrecce Hiroshima. In this season, Makino participated in almost all the matches of the league game, taking 6 goals while playing DF.
Due to this success, Makino moved from Cologne to Urawa. In the 2013 season he played in all the matches of the league game, and again scored 6 goals.
Until now, he enrolled in Urawa Reds, the result was 216 matches and was 26 goals. (Total of League Games and Emperor’s Cup from 2012 to 2017)
International career
Makino was elected Japan representative of the AFC Youth Championship held in 2006 and contributed to the team’s advance to the finals. In the following year, he was elected Japan representative of FIFA U – 20 World Cup held in Canada and contributed to the team ‘s entry into the Knockout stage. In addition, the goal performance that Japanese players showed at this tournament was played centered on Makino. On this team, there were Shinji Kagawa and Atsuto Uchida, which later became the center players of the senior team.
The debut on the senior team was Yemen against the 2011 AFC Asian Cup qualification held on January 6, 2010. In this match, Japan won 3-2 by Sota Hirayama’s hat trick.
However, Makino was not elected as a member of 2010 FIFA World Cup and 2011 AFC Asian Cup was not elected because of the last injured.
Despite his success in Urawa Reds, Makino was not elected a Japanese member of 2014 FIFA World Cup.
The situation changed when Vahid Halilhodžić became the coach of Japan. Halilhodžić thoroughly polished Makino’s skills as a defender. Makino so far had a weak point such as playing sloppy or playing an unnecessary foul due to high physical ability. So, Halilhodžić taught Makino thoroughly the skills of defenders such as how to get to the opponent, how to cover the friend, how to position it, how to position, how to use the hands when competing with the opponent and how to use the back line.
Makino was elected Japan representative to participate in 2018 FIFA World Cup. He could not play in the group stage against Colombia and Senegal. Gen Shoji was a player who played as centre back instead of Makino in the two games.

Summary
Previously Makino had high physical ability and ability to run fast, but because it was not mentally stable, it was not a starting member of Japan. However, when Halilhodžić became a Japanese coach, he enthusiastically directed Makino. As a result, Makino became mentally stable, and the mild play declined. Mikino is now becoming a starting member of the Japanese team by further adding the physical ability that it had originally with them.
Yours sincerely,
