* His story started out in his [[Gigobyte|younger days]], serving [[Eria the Water Charmer]] as her familiar. During this time, he fought alongside [[Raging Eria|her]] and [[The Law of the Normal|many others]]. He [[Triangle Power|grows up]] into [[Gagagigo]], and when [[Eria the Water Charmer|Eria]] [[Spiritual Water Art - Aoi|sacrifices her soul]] before being revived by the [[Ribbon of Rebirth]], [[Gagagigo]] [[Familiar-Possessed_-_Eria|possesses]] her. At some point he leaves her and sets off on his path to darkness. He eventually comes upon a [[Freed the Brave Wanderer|warrior of light]]. They both [[Subspatial Battle|engage  in a battle]] that results in [[Gagagigo]] getting dragged into  the other dimension through a [[Dimensional Prison]] that [[Freed the Brave Wanderer|Freed]] creates. After being sent through [[Freed the Brave Wanderer|Freed's]] [[Dimensional Fissure]], [[Gagagigo]] finds himself trapped in [[D.D. Borderline|another dimension]] (possibly [[Pandemonium]] or the [[Dark World]]). Forced to wander the area for some time, [[Gagagigo]] stumbles across what seems to be a [[Stumbling|bone yard]]. Trouble soon ensues and he almost gets sacrificed on the [[Archfiend|Archfiends']] [[Altar for Tribute]]. Luckily, he is rescued by the [[Marauding Captain]] and his soldiers. However, before they can escape, they are attacked by an [[Inpachi]] who was [[Double Attack|defeated]] by the [[Marauding Captain]]. It soon came back empowered by the fiends to become [[Blazing Inpachi]]. They [[Two-Man Cell Battle|battle]] it and it is eventually [[Backfire|defeated]] by [[Chopman the Desperate Outlaw|Chopman]] in a desperate attempt to escape his Archfiend captors, leaving Inpachi as [[Charcoal Inpachi|charcoal]]. During the battle, the [[Marauding Captain]] [[My Body as a Shield|saves]] [[Gagagigo]] by taking a direct hit from a blast launched by [[Blazing Inpachi]]. This act deeply moves [[Gagagigo]], bringing about a catharsis that inspires him to help his new-found friend. He then joins Marauding Captain in a war against the [[Invader  of Darkness (card)|Invader of Darkness]]. During one battle, [[Gagagigo]] deflects a [[Spirit Barrier|blast]] from  the [[Penalty Game!|Invader of Darkness]] that is aimed at one of [[Marauding Captain]]'s [[Absolute End|men]], saving the man in the same fashion the [[Marauding Captain]] saved him with, and proving his redemption. Some time after the battle, [[Gagagigo]] gains aid from [[Kozaky]] in the hope of gaining the necessary power to defeat the [[Invader of Darkness (card)|Invader of Darkness]]. With the help of [[Kozaky]], [[Gagagigo]] has his body [[Level Conversion Lab|reconstructed]] to become [[Giga Gagagigo]]. However, it turns out that Kozaky was working with the Archfiends to [[Woodborg Inpachi|repair their Inpachis]] and the archfiend cybernetics that are fitted onto him prove to corrupt his mind, reverting him back to his evil self. Kozaky then launches [[Giga Gagagigo]] with his [[Compulsory Evacuation Device]] into a [[Monster Gate]] in the sky and returns him to his native dimension. As he is mindlessly wandering the dimension in search of opponents, [[Giga Gagagigo]] comes across a [[Venom Cobra]] and battles it to [[Ambush Fangs|test his strength]]. Afterward, [[Giga Gagagigo]] stumbles across [[Freed the Brave Wanderer|Freed]] and  attempts to finish him off by launching an attack . However, [[Freed the Brave Wanderer|Freed]] proves to be the stronger warrior and [[Draining Shield|deflects]] [[Giga Gagagigo]]'s attack. [[Giga Gagagigo]] gets his attack [[Des Counterblow|redirected]] back at him and is soon defeated. Obsessed to continue gaining strength to defeat his rivals, [[Giga Gagagigo]] continues his rampage, transforms into [[Gogiga Gagagigo]], and truly loses his soul to his undying craving for power.
