HistoryEdit

BackstoryEdit

In an unknown time in the past, Asakim committed an unpardonable crime which granted him the punishment of being turned into an immortal. For millenias, Asakim has been desperately trying to find a method to finally get himself killed. He later heard about the Spheres, in which when all twelve are gathered and awakened, they would unleash massive power that perhaps could be the key to Asakim's search for methods to lift him from his immortality and die. Asakim sought to awaken the Spheres, regardless of what method he needs to use.

Super Robot Wars ZEdit

He eventually located two Spheres, the Sphere of Wounded Lion; contained inside Mel Peter and Rand Travis' Gunleon, as well as the Sphere of the Maiden of Sorrow; contained within Setsuko Ohara herself. Asakim used two approaches for both Spheres. Against Rand, he tends to be friendly at times, but at other times, he's just about ready to stab him on the back, causing anguish to both Mel and Gunleon. Against Setsuko, however, Asakim went over the top and goes out of his way to make her suffer, including the murder of her two friends and toying around with her emotions, earning him her eternal hatred. Both Spheres eventually awaken and Asakim's objective is finished. He either leaves the final battle against The Edel Bernal, or if Rand is the hero, he can be convinced to lend a hand for this one battle.

Asakim is often associated with the Chimera group including his own close comrade ,Ji Adell, but holds no loyalty to them. However, he is interested on the woman named  Xine Espio.As Asakim and Xine were working together ,Xine becomes emotionally attach to him , in other words she have fell in love . Although Asakim is ignorant towards her,  he decided to leave Xine for her own good  and left a note  for her to forget about him and lead a happy life without him.

Even after meeting some ZEUTH members which was very hostile to him, Asakim ends up helping them against Destruction King Gaioh, until he attempted to repeat his betrayal to Rand and Setsuko towards Crowe. However, at that point, Amuro Ray intercepts him and reveals his atrocities towards Crowe and ZEXIS. Asakim thus retreated, having lost Crowe's trust, but still operates in the Shadows afterwards.

At that time, Asakim showed up, upon seeing their condition, he offers to help them by asking to Crowe whether he accepts or not.However, Crowe intent to refuse yet despite the situation in their complete weak condition which he does not have a choice to accept his offer.

PersonalityEdit

Asakim is a man who knows what emotion to use in what situation. He is ruthless, callous and sadistic, on a psychopathic level who will stop at nothing until his objective is accomplished, which includes being a total monster to some people (like Setsuko).

When compared to Masaki Andoh, the character he is seemingly based on, Asakim is like the complete antithesis of Masaki. Rather than dumb, hotblooded but undeniably heroic character, Asakim is smart, cold hearted, sadistic and evil if the situation requires him to be.
