By all technicalities, Shigeru murdered Naomi. But Naomi only died because Shizuka tried to duck. She knew where the shovel would hit if she did that, so you could also say she killed both of them!

Luck had nothing to do with it, Shyla... I knew you couldn't control your flying ability yet, so I let you get in that last punch... Then I used Newton's Law of Motion— for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction— It forced you back into the Projector's ray!

Sandalphon screamed as Asuka pivoted again, facing the Angel's now exposed back towards her teammates.
