Gigaman (ギガマン,   Gigaman) is a Kyodai hero that appeared in the 2022 video game GigaBash. Gigaman was humanity's first line of defense against Titans before his sudden disappearance, although he would later reappear to assist the human mecha Thundertross.

Name

Gigaman's name follows a similar naming convention to other Kyodai heroes such as Ultraman, Megaloman, and Rainbowman where the word "man" is affixed to another word. Gigaman's name is derived from "giga," which indicates enormous size and strength, though it may also be a reference to GigaBash.

Design

Gigaman is a blue, slightly pudgy humanoid entity adorned with clothing-like growths. Gigaman's face is grey, noseless, and has an inset, smiling mouth, similar to Ultraman. Gigaman has a blue visor for eyes, immediately above which are three golden spikes that protrude to the back of his head like stylized hair, the middlemost of which is crooked. Gigaman also has golden "sideburns" on either side of his head. Gigaman wears an angular, gold-lined, cowl-like chest piece that prominently features a large blue light in a similar shape to his visor, which is intruded on by a gold spike from Gigaman's left side. Around his shoulders and neck, the cowl is grey. Gigaman also wears grey gloves and boots, while several thin black lines descend from under his arms to his knees. Gigaman's legs have a thick white stripe along their sides. Also like Ultraman, Gigaman has blocky ear-like structures on the side of his head and a thin ridge running down his back. GigaBash makes repeated references to how Gigaman's retirement left him out of shape; notably, Thundatross' pilot Yuuki Otoma remarked that he remembered Gigaman was "thinner" upon meeting him.

Personality

Gigaman is a charismatic, flamboyant show-off, fighting with flashy, acrobatic but effective moves that attract and please large crowds, even influencing Japan's foreign policy and preventing them from authorizing G.T.D.I. involvement until after Gigaman retired. Despite his showboating, Gigaman recognizes the importance of allies, shown by his repeated aid to Thundatross and the G.T.D.I. More TBA.

Project P.P.J.U.R.A.S

In search of the Teleporter Module for its ship, Pipijuras landed at the G.T.D.I's base in Tokyo, where it was immediately confronted by Gigaman, who engaged the alien with a kick. Pipijuras gained the upper hand over Gigaman, and the G.T.D.I. deployed Thundatross to assist him as Pipijuras closed in on the organization's headquarters. Pipijuras defeated Thundatross and continued its march as both Gigaman and Thundatross regained their strength made a last-ditch attempt to stop the Titan. Pipijuras prevailed and destroyed the building and seized the Teleporter Module, which it connected to its ship's beacon, warping it and a huge chunk of Tokyo to the Yeti Sanctuary in Siberia, leaving Gigaman and Thundatross behind.

Abilities

Physical capabilities

Gigaman relies on his acrobatic skills to pull off powerful kicks and punches.

Giga Beam

Gigaman can fire a large blue projectile from his chest which deals minimal damage to buildings and bounces off of non-Titan objects. Gigaman can charge it in order to increase its damage, bounces, and range. If the Giga Beam collides with another beam attack and enters a Beam Clash, it will become a larger, continuous beam.

Hyper Giga Beam

Trivia

• Alsongside Skorak, Gigaman is GigaDev Gerald's favorite Titan.
• Gigaman is a spoof of Ultraman.
  • Gigaman begins his fights human-sized before growing to Titan-sized proportions, suggesting he has a secret civilian identity of sorts, which is supported by G.T.D.I. speculation that Gigaman had a secret human identity in his bio. Both are traits shared with Ultraman.
  • The original Ultraman, alongside Ultraman Tiga, would later added to the game in their own DLC. In their DLC's trailer, both Ultras come to Gigaman’s assistance.
• Gigaman is the first Titan created by Passion Republic that is able to Beam Clash, though his ability to was only added after the Godzilla DLCs that introduced the mechanic.
