Giga (ギガ, aka Dreadnaut) leads the Decepticon forces on Earth alongside his wife, Mega, serving as the "Ambassadors of Destruction" for the mysterious alien entity and self-styled Decepticon god, Devil Z. Giga has given himself over entirely to the Decepticon goals of conquest, but at the same time, has not lost touch with his humanity, believing that humans should be the ones to rule their own planet. He realizes that a bloodless takeover is essentially impossible, but Devil Z's hate-fuelled willingness to exterminate human beings to achieve his goals often leaves a bad taste in Giga's mouth.
As Decepticon Godmasters, both Giga and Mega are bonded to the same transtector from the G Nebula. This transtector, Overlord, splits into two components, the Gigatank (ギガタンク Gigatanku) piloted by Giga and the Megajet piloted by Mega.

Precisely how Giga and Mega were recruited by Devil Z was never revealed. The couple were bonded to the largest of the eight transtectors that Devil Z had brought to Earth, and were charged by the alien with finding the other Godmaster transtectors scattered across Earth. They operated out of a secret island base while Devil Z's other Decepticon minions, led by Blood, kept the Autobots on Earth busy. Giga and Mega discovered the German brothers Hydra and Buster and a pair of jet transtectors in North America and bonded them together, bringing them to their island for training in the use of their mighty new powers.
Eventually, Devil Z decided bring his Decepticon troops together, and dispatched Blood's Decepticons to Giga and Mega's island, where Giga explained to the newcomers the power of the Godmasters. Super Warriors - The Godmaster Brothers With their forces now united, the Decepticons all relocated to the base used by Blood, and began anew their campaign to plunder energy and destabilize the natural balance of the world. A Fierce Battle!! The Autobots Are in Trouble
Soon, Giga and Mega revealed to Hydra and Buster that they were not the only Godmasters on Earth, and ordered them to seek out more of their kind. The first Godmaster to be discovered, however—a trucker named Ginrai—wound up siding the Autobots. A Hero Is Chosen - His Name Is Ginrai In order to beef up Hydra and Buster's armament for the subsequent hunt for Ginrai, Giga and Mega provided them with deathballs (powerful explosives that Giga road-tested by driving them into a passing military jet with a gold club) Ginrai: God On of Rage!! but the Godmaster brothers repeatedly failed to best their Autobot opponent, prompting Giga and Mega to call in King Poseidon. Eliminate the Godmaster Ginrai
Things just kept going from bad to worse for the Decepticons, though, when three more Godmasters were discovered and sided with the Autobots, leaving Giga and Mega furious, and with very little patience for the Six Changer Sixknight, who attempted to offer them his services and who they turned away with mocking laughter. A Powerful Foe!! Sixknight the WandererGiga and Mega next tried turning the rest of Earth against the Autobots, by having Mega pose as a fortune teller on television in order to predict disasters that they could blame on the Autobots. Giga took the Gigatank into battle for the first time in order to fulfil one of these "prophecies" by blowing up Watson Dam, Expose the Decepticons' Dark Trap! but when even that plan was foiled, the couple finally determined that it was time at last for them to take matters into their own hands. Luring Ginrai into the desert, Giga and Mega unleashed their full power by combining into Overlord and thrashing Ginrai until he was near-death. Super Ginrai Gets Blown Away in the Desert!? Following this victory, they departed Earth for the moon, where they took over a weather monitoring station and awaited the arrival of the approaching Decepticon super-weapon, BlackZarak. God Ginrai - Into the Sky!! Ginrai, combined with the drone Godbomber and aided by Grand Maximus, pursued them, and after a prolonged battle, Giga and Mega were badly wounded and forced to flee back to Earth. God Ginrai - Showdown on the Surface of the Moon
After their defeat on the moon, Giga and Mega made several attempts to destroy Godbomber, first with a "Chōkon Tornado" in the desert, Overlord - Terror of the Chōkon Tornado then by separating him from Ginrai Destroy Godbomber!!, but both plans failed. Giga's next plan was the infinitely more daring "Operation: Dark Base of the Lighthouse", conceived when the Decepticons were approached by the final Godmaster, Clouder. Appearance!! The Final Godmaster Giga exploited Clouder's ability to adopt two robot forms by installing him as a double agent within the Autobot ranks, and using the information that he obtained about the heroes' headquarters to mount a full-scale assault against on their base. Secret Orders! Destroy the Autobot Base!! Although Giga and Mega were defeated by Ginrai during the ensuing battle, the ultimate goal of Giga's plan was accomplished, and the Autobot base was destroyed. Disaster! The Autobot Base Explodes
When BlackZarak returned to Earth, Giga was shocked by Devil Z's decision to have the powerful Decepticon destroy all of humanity in one fell swoop using the atmosphere-destroying Death Para-Machine. Giga held his tongue, and the plan was ultimately thwarted by the Autobots, Crisis! The Day of Human Extinction but Giga's doubts remained, and only grew when Devil Z—now inhabiting the body of BlackZarak—revisited the idea, this time deciding to use his Devil Power to wipe out mankind. Giga could remain silent no longer, and spoke out against the destruction of mankind, only for Devil Z to utterly ignore his pleas. When the alien fulfilled Buster and Hydra's wishes to become truly robotic beings, the horrified Giga and Mega resolved to prove the power of humanity to Devil Z by fighting Ginrai without weapons, using only the power of their spirit and flesh. Battle to the Death!! God Ginrai VS Darkwings Reborn Ginrai acknowledged their wish by fighting on the same terms, but Grand Maximus had no such compunctions, blasting them from behind so that the Autobots could move on to more important matters. Autobots! Desperate Attack!!
When Devil Z relocated the Decepticons to the peak of the Matterhorn for an attack against Europe, Giga and Mega found themselves in opposition to their emperor once more when he subjected Hydra and Buster to corporal punishment for their repeated failures. The couple tried to restrain Devil Z, causing him to turn on them, and they would have died then and there had Ginrai not come to their rescue. Malevolent and Inhuman! The True Form of Devil Z As Ginrai engaged Devil Z in battle, Giga and Mega realized that they could no longer serve the alien, and that they now owed Ginrai a debt of honor for saving them. Joining their old foe against their former leader, Giga and Mega were struck down by a bolt of Devil Power, and forcibly separated from their transtectors by Devil Z's powers. As Overlord came to life as a true super-robot lifeform, Mega and Giga collapsed on the snowy ground, and their Masterbraces vanished from their wrists. With his last breath, Giga regretted that he could not end his rivalry with Ginrai honourably, and the couple died. A Battle... and Then...
While battling Star Convoy in the Precursor World, Turtler remembered how Giga and the other Decepticons showed their lack of respect for him. Seacons comic 5
In 2021, Giga and Mega were resurrected within the Legends World by the similarly returned Devil Z, and agreed to work with him again for a chance at a final showdown with Ginrai. LG60 Overlord While working behind the scenes, they employed Clouder as a double agent. LG47 Kickback Giga was approached by Sixshot who was looking for a way to use the Legends World's spirit energy to resurrect the dead. Explaining that the energy was in fact a form of Chōkon Power known as Shinchōkon, Giga wondered if Sixshot would be able to control it. LG50 Sixshot In order to become Godmasters again, Giga and Mega used a new Gigatank and Megajet to attack Ginrai while he was delivering a cargo of Master-Braces. They were unable to defeat him for good thanks to Minerva and Cab intervening, but managed to get away with the braces nonetheless. LG-EX God Ginrai
Giga and Mega next lured Ginrai to their base, disguised as the "Chōkon Tower Chinese Restaurant", where they treated him to a meal so that he'd be at full strength for a fair and square battle. As the duel began, Giga formed the head of a new "Overlord Giga" and revealed that he and Mega had learned to master Shinchōkon, allowing them to not only summon forth a second Overlord transtector for Mega to control, but combine the both of them into "Overlord Tera". Their combined form temporarily overcame God Ginrai, only for their nemesis to tap into Shinchōkon himself and defeat them. Giga and Mega accepted that they would die again with Devil Z's imminent destruction, but Clouder revealed that the entity had been captured alive, allowing them to remain in the Legends World and run their restaurant until the day they could have a rematch with Ginrai. LG60 Overlord
During Sixshot's efforts to resurrect Jack, Giga explained that using Shinchōkon to bring back the dead required a body, so Sixshot offered up his own body as a vessel. Overlord Giga infused Sixshot's body and transtector with Shinchōkon, successfully resurrecting Jack and pushing Sixshot's essence into the transtector. LG-EX Greatshot When Devil Z broke out and attacked the Legends World in the form of a new BlackZarak, Giga and Mega formed Overlord Tera and helped defeat him. LG-EX Grand Maximus
Giga and Mega came under Devil Z's rule when they drowned at sea. Devil Z saw use for the humans, and used his mysterious powers to restore them to life. Bonding them to the largest of the eight transtectors he had brought to Earth, Devil Z charged Giga and Mega with finding the other Godmasters lost around the Earth. The Birth of the Super Life-Forms
After locating and training the first two Godmasters, Hydra and Buster, Giga and Mega met with the Pretenders and Headmaster Juniors that were already operating on Earth under Devil Z's command. The couple took an immediate liking to the three young Juniors, and become something unto a father and mother for them, creating an odd "Decepticon family". On Scene! Our Savior's Name Is Ginrai!
When an attempt to dupe the Autobots with holographic images of legendary Decepticons failed, prompting Buster to inquire if there were any real troops available, Giga informed him that they would need to wait for Devil Z's order. Burn, Chokon! New Commander Super Ginrai! The order came soon, when Devil Z instructed the Earth-based Decepticons led by Giga and Mega to team up with the space-based Decepticon forces under the command of BlackZarak. The Battle Begins! The Earth-Space Alliance Army They also attempted to induct Jin and Mirai into the Decepticons, but they ran off with the "newest Master-Braces" and formed their own faction. Headmasters VS Masterforce With the alliance with BlackZarak to strengthen them, Giga and Mega unveiled their transtectors for the first time in an attack on a city, and combined into Overlord to battle God Ginrai. God Ginrai's Amazing Divine Combination!
In an attempt to expand their twisted family, the Decepticons kidnapped Shūta Gō and Cab and tried to torture them into joining their ranks. Wilder was not in favor of inducting the Autobots, but Giga informed him that they were always willing to embrace anyone who wanted to become part of their family. Minerva soon arrived to save her teammates, however, and Ginrai and Grand Maximus dispatched Overlord. The Good and Evil Families of Earth Their next attempt at enlarging their family was similarly ineffective, when the final Godmaster, Clouder, joined up with the Decepticons, only to turn on them and side with the Autobots. Giga believed that they hadn't shown Clouder enough love and concern. The Decepticons' Great Counterattack!
Giga and Mega became Overlord again to join BlackZarak in attacking an Earth city, but they were defeated by the power of the Autobots' newest weapon, the VX Bomb. Life or Death? The Desperate Divine Combination! Later, as the New Year approached, Giga and Mega wanted the Decepticon family to celebrate the New Year together. However, they found Cancer sneaked out of the Decepticon headquarter and runs away with Browning, leaving behind a letter that states he doesn't want to be a Decepticon any more. As for Cancer, who thought himself could live a normal life again, only met BlackZarak who winded up attacking the city where he went to. BlackZarak displayed his dismissive attitude towards humans—even comrades—when the Autobots arrived to battle him, seizing Cancer and using him to keep the Autobots at bay. Giga and Mega soon arrived, and, horrified at the sight of their surrogate son being treated in this manner, combined into Overlord and thrashed BlackZarak for his actions. The Autobots used this opening to attack both Decepticons, forcing them to retreat. The Great Turnabout of the Autobots
Giga and Mega's actions in the last battle proved to be the last straw for Devil Z. Possessing BlackZarak's body, he turned on his minions and Ginrai and attempted to absorb their Jinchōkon, in order to transform himself into the ultimate lifeform. They were saved by the Autobot Pretenders, who blocked Devil Z's Jinchōkon-absorbing beam with their entirely robotic bodies, and Giga and Mega decided to join with the Autobots to defeat their treacherous emperor once and for all. All the Autobots and Decepticons united their energies in the "Perfect Transform Attack", obliterating Devil Z and BlackZarak in one mighty explosion of pure Chōkon Power. Alas, the death of Devil Z caused the cessation of the energies sustaining Giga and Mega, and the couple died along with the alien. Devil Z's passing had another unexpected side effect, causing the Transformers' transtectors to come to life as true super-robot lifeforms that soon departed for space to continue their war. The now-living Overlord declared that he would continue to battle Ginrai and the Autobots, and defeat them in the name of Giga and Mega's memory. The Birth of the Super Life-Forms
The ancient Titan Master Dreadnaut granted his larger Phase Sixer partner Overlord an Ion Impoder blast that could erase matter from existence. Titans Return Dreadnaut/Overlord packaging bio
As Overlord's head, Giga set up a trap for the Autobots by emitting a signal that would lure them in, though he was disappointed when only Bumblebee and Spike showed up. He fared poorly in the fight with his tiny opponents, however, and a disappointed Mega ousted him from his position and took control of Overlord. Looming Threat
