==Gagagigo's Story==
 
In his [[Gigobyte|younger days]], he served [[Eria the Water Charmer]] as her familiar. During this time, he fought alongside [[Raging Eria|her]] and [[The Law of the Normal|many others]]. While in his younger days, he was [[Compensation Exchange|nearly eaten by some monster plants while trying to get food]], but was saved presumingly by Eria. He eventually [[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]], and would later use the technique he used to master the bone yard to teach [[Goblin Attack Force]] how to [[Eisbahn|ice skate]]. 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]]. 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.
 
 
 
Yet [[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. Yet again, he engages Freed in a battle, but this time he was able to overpower him. When he was about to give him a finishing blow, the Marauding Captain [[Memory of an Adversary|appears]] to protect Freed.
 
 
 
Instead of following his corrupted instincts, Gogigo Gagagigo understands Marauding Captain's actions, and forsakes his quest for power. Thus, he finally becomes the strong warrior of justice he once sought out to be, [[Gagagigo the Risen]].
