First Lieutenant Shigeru Aoba is one of the three main computer technicians at Nerv HQ, along with Makoto Hyuga and Maya Ibuki.
Profile
Aoba is an avid guitar player, and has been seen carrying a guitar case when in civilian life (Episode 11). Even in Nerv Headquarters, Aoba has been seen to play air guitar when he is not on duty, as well as read guitar magazines.
Aoba is a bit of a nihilist and a little cynical, scoffing at Maya Ibuki's absolute faith in the technology of the age (11, again), and having no second thoughts about firing on JSSDF soldiers in Episode 25'. But he gets along well with his co-workers.
During Third Impact, the transition guides appeared to everyone around the world as a person they loved or trusted, their touch transforming the person into LCL. Aoba, however, experienced only a multitude of naked Rei Ayanami messengers, from which he cowered under his desk until he was touched, implying that there was no one that Aoba truly loved or trusted. The Rei messengers also giggle insanely like the destroyed Tank Reis from the Dummy Plug Plant, but there is no known connection between the tank Rei copies and Aoba, so the reason behind this particular manifestation remains a matter of speculation.
In Rebuild of Evangelion
Aoba reprises his old role in Rebuild of Evangelion, with little to differentiate him from his appearance in the TV series in Evangelion 1.0 and 2.0. However for Evangelion 3.0 he appears alongside Hyuga on the bridge of the AAA Wunder.
Aoba in Other Media
"Making something... Nurturing something is really great. You can see and learn so many things from the process." |
In the Manga
Notes
- His surname comes from the name of the Aoba class heavy cruiser.
- Aoba's personal name, "Shigeru", makes his full name the same sound similar to Aoba Shigereru, a movie directed by Kihachi Okamoto, which was intentional.
