Giant Squid	comment	Aside from being a plentiful source of low grade calamari note Extremely low-grade; they use ammonia to help them stay afloat, and ammonia is definitely not good eats in most parts of the world., Giant Squid are just as appetizingly useful for their role as Sea Monsters roaming the deep, attacking boats full of Cutthroat Island extras and being an all round menace to the high seas. As a real life species, giant squid are believed to have inspired Norse tales of the Kraken and as one of The Oldest Ones in the Book had a lot of overlap with the epic Kraken and Leviathan. After Jules Vernes's 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, the Giant Squid became a much more of a monster in the vein of any other "Gigantic Animal" monster: much more explicitly a larger version of something already known, scientifically unstudied but explainable and belonging to a realm not yet fully discovered, in this case, the depths of the sea. Being mostly tentacle, the Giant Squid has a variety of ways in which it may be depicted on screen. You might see only the tentacles, perhaps the top of the head occasionally peaks out of the water. A full body shot may be a climatic reveal and seeing the beaked mouth may be reserved for the death scene of some poor sucker being slowly dragged into it. Very often the tentacles almost seem to act as their own monster following the principle of only taking what is on screen as being real. Authors, designers and illustrators not always being sticklers for accuracy, the trope Giant Squid includes giant octopuses and giant-sea-creatures-that-are-some-weird-hybrid-of-squids-and-octopuses, as well. Subtrope of Sea Monster and Tentacled Terror. See also Giant Enemy Crab. The really big ones may also qualify as Kaiju.

Giant Squid / int_14f9297e	comment	Occasionally showed up on The Far Side, usually in the role of the traditional household pet. Somehow, they never seemed to need water. One shows a giant squid and a dog curled up together sleeping. Their owner tells his friend that "in the wild, they'd be enemies, but they do just fine if you get them as pups". Another sees a man visiting his friend's house and appearing quite nervous at the giant squid eyeballing him. His friend tells him to remain calm as giant squids can sense fear. In yet another strip, a woman is frantically calling an exterminator while a giant squid is eating her husband in the background. The exterminator's office ("Harry's Squid-Be-Gone") is empty, with a sign on the door that says "Back in a jiffy".

It can grab prey (including players and various other giant sea predators) and crush them to death, inflincting torpor which can cause the creature to lose consciousness, while regaining health by drinking their blood. If you manage to start doing serious damage to one, it will spray a blinding ink cloud and flee. There's also an Alpha version which is even bigger, being the largest alpha creature on the island. Pretty impressive given it has serious competition. Fortunately, both the common and Alpha varieties are only found deep in the ocean and will not come to the surface unless tamed, so one can avoid them easily enough.

The masses of Technically Living Zombies have resulted in the bay's waters becoming infested not only with sharks, but also with Humboldt Squid, which are voraciously feeding on the masses of infected humans. The sight actually unnerves the watching Navymen, and one member who happens to have lived in the area notes that the beaches of Southern California may not be safe to swim in for the rest of his lifetime at the earliest, as Humboldt Squid are aggressive, intelligent predators who may even be capable of social learning.

Giant Squid / int_6ac55ec7	comment	Dungeons & Dragons: Perfectly mundane giant squid and giant octopus have been statted in multiple editions, where they're treated as just regular animals. In Dungeons & Dragons 3rd Edition, this qualifies them for a number of creature templates, which can make them far closer to the spirit of this trope. In particular, fiendish giant cephalopods (and the more powerful half-fiend versions) are true monsters, having at least human-level intellects and the personality of nihilistic sadists; they tend to be common threats in the aquatic regions of the Abyss. Dagon, Demon Prince of Water, is generally described as an Animalistic Abomination resembling a Kaiju-sized amalgam of squid, shark and eel. He is usually characterized as one of the most ancient, intelligent and patient of the Demon Lords. One of the more consistent examples in the D&D setting are the krakens, which resemble enormous squids, but have genius-level intellects, potent sorcerous abilities, and a raging god complex, which leads to them spinning elaborate plans of conquest and destruction. They are sometimes hinted to have originated on other planes, and often worship evil gods or Demon Lords And Arch Devils with a tie to water, such as Dagon. Weirdly, their depiction in Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition looks more like Del Lago with tentacles. The spin-off game Pathfinder has the Devilfish; 10-12ft long cephalopods that resemble seven-armed vampire squids, said to have been created when the blood of Dagon mingled with the blood of a powerful kraken queen during a titanic fight to the death. They are ruthless, sadistic, and highly intelligent predators with a poisonous bite that use clouds of toxic blood in the same way lesser cephalopods use ink. Pathfinder is also home to the Lusca; three-headed hybrids of shark and octopus bigger than battleships covered in toxic slime and able to hurl lightning bolts.

The Big Octo from The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. It's a giant squid that is always preceded by a large flock of seagulls, and will try to suck in your boat if you go near said seagulls, at which point you must attack several places on its body with your boomerang. The Big Octorok from The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap is technically the same size as the small Octoroks you fight in the overworld, but it becomes this from Link's perspective after he is shrunk to Minish size. While the incident happened in the past and isn't portrayed onscreen, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild has a stone tablet that describes how Prince Sidon killed a giant Octorok that was terrorizing Hylian fishers.

Giant Squid / int_8258e260	comment	Super Mario Bros.: Bosses of this sort are fairly common in the series and tend to be supersized version of Bloopers, a type of common squid enemies. Super Mario Sunshine: One of the recurring enemies is the Gooper Blooper, a giant land squid that sprays toxic ink around itself. It later makes an appearance as a boss in Paper Mario: Sticker Star, where it seems to have gotten into music, and Paper Mario: The Origami King, where it attacked a cruise ship you need to rescue from its clutches. Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars: King Calamari is a giant squid that sank the pirate Jonathan Jones' ship and was locked in its treasure room. It's large enough for its body and tentacles to resolve as separate foes during its battle. Paper Mario 64: The Mega Blooper is a supersized variant of the standard Blooper. The sequel has a similarly sized Blooper as the first real boss in the game, but lacks any manner of adjective on its name. Mario Party 9: A giant Blooper appears in the boss minigame Blooper Barrage. It attacks from the ocean, and the players fight it by firing cannons at it from a pirate ship. Super Mario Party: A Mega Blooper appears as a board hazard on Megafruit Paradise and Watermelon Walkabout, where it stalks players crossing the bridge between Present Island and Watermelon Island.

Giant Squid / int_b1f436be	comment	Perfectly mundane giant squid and giant octopus have been statted in multiple editions, where they're treated as just regular animals. In Dungeons & Dragons 3rd Edition, this qualifies them for a number of creature templates, which can make them far closer to the spirit of this trope. In particular, fiendish giant cephalopods (and the more powerful half-fiend versions) are true monsters, having at least human-level intellects and the personality of nihilistic sadists; they tend to be common threats in the aquatic regions of the Abyss.

Notably, it was brought to life using the Giant Octopus puppet from King Kong vs. Godzilla, Frankenstein Conquers the World, and War of the Gargantuas. On Ultraseven, the mysterious Ultraterrestrials known as the Nonmalts attack humanity's ships and subs using a squid-like kaiju called Guyros, who is ultimately chopped up into calamari by Ultraseven. Ultraman Taro and Ultraman 80 both featured cephalopod kaiju in bit roles. The former series' monster was Tagarl, who battled the Giant Enemy Crab Ganza, while the latter series had Daron, a minion of Gimyra who teamed up with Raburas to fight 80 in one battle scene.

Even the other mafiosi know nothing about marine biology and can see the flaw in his reasoning). He's haunted by the ghosts of his fellow criminals who demand he avenge them, and very nearly manages it by luring Frank into a warehouse gunfight and blowing it up.
