Aogami is a character in Shin Megami Tensei V. Created by Bethel to battle the forces of Chaos, he vanished after the disappeared of Lucifer until the protagonist was transported into Da'at and was threatened by demons. Reawakened, he offered his power to the young man and the two fused into the form of a Nahobino.

Profile

Aogami is a combat-type Proto-fiend constructed by Bethel Japan to replenish their forces after the significant losses they faced from Armageddon. His appearance is similar to Hayao Koshimizu, with the main difference being his blue hair and taller height. He wears a fully body skin suit made of white metal with lines of red energy flowing through it, and has a red symbol on his chest resembling the letter S or a magatama.

Aogami is very reserved and acts in an almost robotic manner, faithfully serving Bethel without objection and seeking to protect humanity and the protagonist. However, as he spends more time with the protagonist, he becomes more introspective, questioning his role and displaying affection for the protagonist beyond his programming to protect him. He also shows remorse over the loss of human life, suggesting his actions are driven by compassion rather than just following his programming.

In reality, he contains the soul of Susano-o, who fell in battle during Armageddon and was reconstructed by Koshimizu.

Gameplay

Several Essences belonging to different Aogami models can be found in Da'at, containing Nahobino-exclusive skills and his initial resistances. In Shin Megami Tensei V, these appear as normal treasure box items. In Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance, they come from Aogami husks and, in addition to the eleven number-types from the original, there are four letter-types.

Shin Megami Tensei V

Aogami is the only remaining Proto-fiend created for Bethel Japan by Hayao Koshimizu[1], with all others having been destroyed in the conflict with the forces of Chaos. 18 years prior to the events of the game, Aogami served under Abdiel and observed Lucifer's deceleration of victory against the Creator. Once Lucifer disappeared, Aogami was immediately taken offline and vanished under mysterious circumstances. He would only reactivate when the protagonist entered Da'at and was attacked by Daemons. Due to his diminished power, he fused with the protagonist to become a Nahobino so that they could survive. Unlike most Nahobino where the demon is in control of their Nahobino form, the Nahobino's human Knowledge took control of their new form. As a result, Aogami provides support to the Nahobino.

In truth he is the god Susano-o in the body of a Proto-fiend, having fallen during Armageddon and rebuilt by Tsukuyomi to wield the full power of the Amatsukami gods.[2][3][4]

Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance

It is revealed that Lucifer is responsible for Aogami's disappearance and later his reappearance before the protagonist in his plot to reunite Knowledge with Eternal Life.[5]

Trivia

  • It is hinted that the character Aogami is of the Aogami Type-0 designation, the most powerful of the combat type Proto-fiends.[6]
  • Aogami's name was initially a placeholder before ultimately being finalised as the character's name.[7]

Nomenclature

The name is a compound of the Japanese ao ("blue") + kami ("Shinto spirit; deity"). The kami changes to gami as an instance of rendaku.

  6. "Researcher: Oh, I mentioned before how there's an Aogami Type-0, right? The Aogami model you've fused with... I think it just might be that very Type-0. There's traces of evidence-though admittedly very little-that the Aogami we all know and the Type-0 share some of the same features. The other units have changed drastically over the last 18 years... It might be more accurate to say they've transformed completely. Perhaps it's because our Aogami was in the netherworld the whole time, but regardless, he's not the same as the type Type-0 from 18 years ago. He doesn't seem to know anything about himself, and the prospects of any of his brothers coming back and knowing more are slim to none... Well, regardless of what his number allocation is, he's the only one who came back, so we can keep on just calling him "Aogami."" Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance. Developed by ATLUS.
  7. "Aogami’s identity is shrouded in mystery, as is his relationship with the protagonist and the fact that he becomes a Nahobino when he joins with the protagonist. The name “Aogami” was a joke that was often told during development, but this code-name like name was officially adopted. Of course, the name and the color of his hair have their own meaning, but that is still a secret. To tell the truth, there is surprisingly little I can say about the design at this point (laughs). So I’ll just list the key words that I had in mind when designing it. First of all, the blue hair, the white body, the red and blue lines on his body, and the feather-like hem resembling a tailcoat. I guess that’s about it. If you are interested, please keep them in mind." Masayuki Doi, [1]. Published September 30, 2021. Retrieved September 3, 2026. Persona Central.
