''This article is about the Anime version of Emma. For alternate pages referred to by this name, please click any of the icons above.''

Mark (マルク) is a five-year-old orphan who formerly resided at Grace Field House Plant 3 as one of the many foster children of Isabella. Due to his age, Mark is considered to be one of the house's "low-quality goods". He was brought into the escape plan by Emma about two months after the truth of the orphanage was revealed.

After successfully escaping Grace Field alongside fourteen other orphans, Mark now seeks to find William Minerva, whom he and her team believe can grant them the liberty to live a safe and peaceful life away from the demons.

Appearance
Mark is a slightly overweight young boy with a wide smile and round, light blue eyes. He has light brown hair which resembles a bowl-cut, with straight, evenly-cut bangs which cover his forehead and a small tuft of hair that sticks up in the back. He wears the standard Grace Field uniform- a plain white long sleeved button-up shirt and white pants along with brown boots. His identification number, "79294", can be seen on the left side of his neck.

History
Mark was born at Grace Field on January 8, 2040 and sent to Plantation 3 a year later in 2041, growing up along with several other children under the parental care of Isabella. Mark is brought into the escape plan alongside the other five year olds after Don and Gilda revealed the truth of the orphanage to them. They were scared, but determined to help out in any way they can. They managed to help prepare for the escape by gathering food, warm clothes and supplies and storing them in the old well until the night of the escape. Mark successfully escaped the house along with the rest of his siblings who were over the age of five.

Personality
Mark is described as a boy who loves to eat. He is a cheerful and curious boy who wears his emotions on his sleeve. He cares about his siblings and is very protective of all of them. Like the rest of his younger siblings, he is also shown to be determined and eager to help out.

Introduction Arc
Taking daily tests, playing a game of tag, eating scrumptious homemade food and having a good time – Mark went through the same routine every day at Grace Field House.

On October 12, 2045, he was seen playing with his siblings and was eventually caught by Norman in a game of tag. Standing alongside Naila, he also said goodbye to Conny who was leaving the orphanage.

When Naila got lost in the forest, Mark came up to Isabella, crying. He told her that he had tried searching for her but couldn't find her. Isabella later found her using the navigator, inadvertently revealing for the older children that she could track them.

Later, during another game of tag, he was caught by Krone. He was also seen participating in the training sessions under the disguise of playing.

Jailbreak Arc
As one of the youngest children, Mark was one of the last people recruited into the escape plan after hearing about the truth about the orphanage, the House, and Isabella. Mark and his siblings escape from Grace Field House on January 15, 2046.

Naila
Mark grew up with Naila ever since they grew up at Grace Field House. Out of all the children, Mark was the closest to Naila. They were always seen by each other's side, playing with each other, and helping each other out.

Grace Field Escapees
Mark gets along with the Grace Field Escapees, particularly the younger children, such as Alicia, Jemima, Yvette, Rossi, Dominic and Chris. They are often seen playing together, helping each other with chores and cheering for one another's accomplishments. He also has an attachment to the older kids, such as Emma and Ray.
