Obake was also well informed about the events that occurred in the city, hiring Globby not long after his mutation and constantly seen watching the news or the city's surveillance cameras, particularly when Big Hero 6 appear in them. When going to crowded or public places, he disguised himself to keep his identity secret. He liked remaining obscure to most of the outside world and performed his attacks anonymously, sending out his minions or hired villains for his schemes, but he sometimes went out himself, and since very few people knew him he was unnoticed. In general, he only seems interested in things that can be proven factually, while having no interest in subjective opinions, shown when he shut down Noodle Burger Boy after the robot claimed that his plan "seemed" to be working, when it was in fact working.
Despite his fixation on Shimamoto, he had a low opinion on artistic expression and didn't hesitate to damage her " City Rising" artwork in order to acquire the blueprints beneath it. Seeing how she had become famous and remembered, he wanted to "live forever" just like her by recreating the devastating event. He also developed an obsession with Lenore Shimamoto's scientific career upon finding out she was responsible for the Great Catastrophe of 1906. Despite his insane beliefs, he acted calculating and patient.
He became an intimidating man who terrified other criminals like Yama and was described by one of the Mad Jacks as "kind of a freak". While he still intended to make the world a better place, he didn't care if innocent people got hurt or even killed in the process as a small price to pay for his desires. His previous ambitions were now greatly twisted by the belief that genius should not be held back, but have the freedom to explore it to help civilization progress, in whatever way it had to come, and his desire to be recognized for it only fueled his mentality. But following his accident, the permanent damage he suffered to his brain had a negative effect on his psyche, rendering him cold-hearted and insane. In order to carry this out, he operated from the shadows under the alias of Obake, forming connections with criminals in the city, beginning with Yama, to retrieve his energy amplifier from Granville and build a gigantic machine that would burn the city down.īack when he was a student at SFIT, Bob Aken had plans to change the world for the better with cutting-edge technology. Twenty years later, he still had ambitions to "create a better world", but the nature of his new plan was corrupted and intended to achieve this by recreating the Great Catastrophe of 1906-the historical tragedy which caused the birth of the San Fransokyo city. The accident made him unable to tell right from wrong, but apparently, he knew about his condition and did not care about receiving medical attention. Aken suffered damage in the temporoparietal junction of his brain and caused the left side of his face to glow with a purple light. Even though Bob survived, he didn't return to SFIT either. Granville felt tremendous guilt and responsibility for the boy's incident, telling the authorities it was her fault and resigning from SFIT shortly after. One night, while Bob was working on an energy amplifier, it blew up on his face, setting the lab on fire and having him sent to the hospital. Granville believed that without limits, Bob would make great accomplishments, but that eventually made him work on dangerous experiments. She also allowed him to use the SFIT's lab even after hours. Granville noticed his genius and gave Bob his own laboratory.
―Professor Granville, telling Big Hero 6 about Obakeīob Aken was once a star student of the San Fransokyo Institute of Technology under the tutelage of Professor Granville. It was a mistake I never wanted to make again. Unfortunately, the path he chose led him to the energy amplifier. He had so many ideas to make the world a better place.
