Minamo and Sota's father, Mamoru Aoi, is the chief of the Technical Section in the Department of Management at Denriken. He always puts his work first and though has not been a good father at home, he is a capable and popular supervisor at work. One day, there is a system intervention in the Metal at Denriken. A virus intrusion is suspected and Mamoru shuts down the core server to minimize the damage. This consequently minimized the effect of the disabled system, but his effort brought Kushima under fire for his managerial responsibility at a special meeting of the board of trustees.
