MAGI Supercomputer System

Item from Neon Genesis Evangelion by Hideaki Anno / Gainax

Three supercomputers imprinted with a dead woman's personality — the scientist, the mother, and the woman — that run every system in NERV and vote on whether to end the world.

Also known as: MAGI, The MAGI, Melchior, Balthasar, Casper

What They Know

• Three supercomputers: Melchior (scientist), Balthasar (mother), Casper (woman) — each an aspect of Naoko Akagi
• Run all critical NERV systems: combat ops, sync testing, security, research, probability calculations
• Major decisions require consensus among all three — they often disagree
• Infiltrated by the Angel Ireul — Ritsuko defeated it by reprogramming the MAGI from within
• Casper (the 'woman') refused Ritsuko's self-destruct command — chose Gendo over Ritsuko
• Brain-like biological components inside can be accessed via fiber-optic needle interfaces
