There are brief moments of bonding earlier in the series, to the point where he seems to almost consider her a friend. However, as head of the Disciplinary Committee, he has stated that he both cares about and is obligated to assist Honor Academy students (even Ryūko). As he normally has no real quarrel with Mako, he probably approaches her with the mindset of her being a friend or similar.
