Code 015, the squad leader who understands Hiro's pain all too well, having once loved him herself. She becomes Rei's unlikely mentor and confidante, offering advice on both piloting and matters of the heart, while warning her about the dangers of loving someone who may never love you back.

Cold and distant since her disappearance, he treats every mission as a potential suicide run and refuses to open his heart to anyone new.
