Profile
Heizou Douji, more commonly known as Professor Douji, is the originator of Shikishima technology, and is in charge of the Sentinel Project in Sector 5. He is approached by Tsukasa Okino and makes a deal with him, where he passes off Tsukasa Okino as his daughter Kiriko Douji in exchange for his help working on Sentinel No. 19, and allowing him access to the Sentinel.

Story
Professor Douji is approached by Tsukasa Okino and makes a deal with him, where he passes off Tsukasa Okino as his daughter Kiriko Douji in exchange for his help working on Sentinel No. 19, and allowing him access to the Sentinel.[1][2]
When Ei Sekigahara shows up in Sector 5 seeking out Tsukasa Okino, he believes that Tsukasa Okino is harbouring him, and believes him to be a spy.[3] He sends the military after Tsukasa Okino to arrest him, prompting him to flee the sector.[4]
Unable to make progress with the Sentinel in Tsukasa Okino's absence (due to the Sentinel still being locked), the Sentinel Project is put on hold, and the project is left to languish.[5]
Etymology
- Douji (堂路) is written with the kanji for temple, shrine, hall (堂) (dou) and road (路) (ji).
- Heizou (平蔵) is written with the kanji for ordinary, flat (平) (hei) and warehouse, storehouse, treasury (蔵) (zou).
Trivia
- George Kamitani said he would have liked Professor Douji to have a similar vibe to Dr. Kabuto from Mazinger Z.[6]
