Jax: Kano is the only vampire in Japan that's not part of The Five.

MC: The Five?

Adrian: All Turned by Gaius. They established rule in Japan while the Order ruled Europe and Gaius created his shadow kingdom in America. [Yes, it was actually Adrian who said it.]

Kamilah: They began to gather power in the late 1800s, creating a safe haven for themselves while keeping other vampires out.

Later, when the soldiers took them and they were talking in the car.

Jax: Kamilah... how do you know Takeshi?

Kamilah: Gaius and I visited Japan in the 1200s. Takeshi was a great warrior, and Gaius's close friend. Gaius Turned him as a reward. I haven't spoken to him in centuries, but I know he was foundational in Japan's history, in its society. In The Five.

MC: Do you know who The Five are?

Kamilah: There's Aiko Nakamura, former clan leader and now CEO. Akeyo Kwangi, a great warrior turned pacifist. Henry Zhang, billionaire businessman. The Evolved...

MC: The... what?

Kamilah: A brilliant scientist. She's obsessed with overcoming her mortal form and has spent centuries using her healing powers to enhance her body. She sees flesh as a prison... and has done everything she can to escape it.

MC: Lily's going to lose her mind...

Jax: I count four. Who's the fifth?

Kamilah: Takeshi Watanabe. Your Maker.

Jax: Takeshi? No, he... he told me he was just an exile... he said he hated The Five...

And that is it. Kamilah didn't actually say they were all Turned by Gaius. It was Adrian. Who later talked to Henry in the club scene and Henry told him and MC that he was Turned by Aiko. If you ask him how did he join the Five:

He chuckles and takes a sip of his drink. Glitter from the dancer falls on Adrian's suit, which makes him blink in surprise.

Henry: I grew up in China, but my grandmother was Japanese. Quite the scandal. But when my family suddenly died of illness, I had nowhere to go. There were some skirmishes, some bad decisions... And eventually I ended up in Japan, taking refuge with my grandmother. When she passed, I was a soldier until I was Turned by Aiko. And I've been here ever since.

MC: So you're younger than Aiko? That's surprising. You seem like... the leader of this group.

Henry: The Five has no leader. I'm merely the voice of order... which often makes me a tie-breaker.

That is all. So I guess that means that while the rest were turned by Gaius, Henry was turned by Aiko right?
