Shigeru Aoba

Shigeru Aoba is a character from the Neon Genesis Evangelion series.
== Charactah Account ==
The long-haired, guitar-playing computer technician in the command center. Unlike everyone else in the series, Shigeru seems to have no one he truly cares about, although he appears to get along well with Maya and Hyuuga.
Shigeru is an extreme atheist/nihilist, which is also why his instrumentality is so different from everyone else's.
When not on the job, Aoba is notably laid-back and relaxed in his manners. The only time he is ever seen being verbally aggressive is when he tries to convince Maya to help him and Hyuuga out in the fight against the JSSDF.

== Trivia ==
* His surname comes from the name of the Aoba class heavy cruiser of the Japanese Imperial Navy.
* 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.
* A dropped scene in Episode 11 included him playing the guitar to the pilots on top of the hill. Another early idea included him playing an instrumental version of A Cruel Angel's Thesis on the guitar during Shinji's Congratulation scene in Episode 26.
