Gigant (Manga) | comment |
Rei Yokoyamada is a 16-year old high school student who wants to follow in his movie producer father's footsteps by making a movie to submit to a film festival. After a classmate asked to take the role of the female lead bows out, he wanders the neighborhood and sees posters announcing that Papico (real name "Chiho Johansson"), a buxom AV actress that Rei is a fan of, lives in the area. Events soon transpire that cause Rei and Chiho to meet in person. The two quickly become friends and start chatting online.Then Chiho finds a middle-aged man in his underwear bleeding on the sidewalk. When she tries to help, the man asks her to finish his business for him and turns into a doll, leaving her with a DVD of his recordings of the 168 hours preceding his death - turns out he's a time traveler from the future who came to Set Right What Once Went Wrong - and a mysterious device implanted into her wrist that allows her to turn into a Giant Woman. And then kaiju and other weird phenomena attack Japan.Yes, really.Gigant is a manga by Hiroya Oku (of Gantz and Inuyashiki fame) which was serialized in the seinen magazine Big Comic Superior from 2018 to 2021, combining a slice-of-life realism to the characters with the science-fiction weirdness that the mangaka is known for. | |

When Chiho finally goes all Ultraman on a giant enemy, going as big as she can, running, and fighting him in the middle of a city, the visuals make it clear that she does substantial damage to the city in the process, and later she learns that she caused numerous deaths, causing a brief Heroic BSoD. | |

Humans Are Bastards: The "Enjoy The End" website, or ETE, allows visitors to vote anonymously on 'events' that they may want to see happen in the real world. Even after the events become destructive with a clear loss of life, people are still voting by the thousands for worse and worse events. | |

Take That, Audience!: Played With, most of the destructive events the world goes through is due to voting in Image Boards affecting the ETE website; while Oku knows they're not full of bad people, he's well aware how many of their users are misanthropes, a subject he had previously explored in Gantz and Inuyashiki. At the very end of the series, when we finally see the the rogue AIs Socrates and Plato, it's clear that they turned evil due to learning from the very same Image Boards; they come across as huge bearded 2channers who demand that Chiho let them feel her tits and then declare that women are irrational and inferior when she refuses. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome | |
Gigant (Manga) / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: When Chiho finally goes all Ultraman on a giant enemy, going as big as she can, running, and fighting him in the middle of a city, the visuals make it clear that she does substantial damage to the city in the process, and later she learns that she caused numerous deaths, causing a brief Heroic BSoD. Despite preventing the 'god of destruction' from reducing Tokyo's population down to 1 million people as per the most voted 'event' of that day on ETE, around a thousand were still killed by the creature's attack. Chiho is promptly arrested the day after, as she is the only remaining person of interest - and, well, everyone could clearly see who she was during the fight. While Chiho and Rei could get away with their Age-Gap Romance when she's still a low-profile adult video star, once her Ultraman-style heroics start drawing attention the media eventually learns about it and the backlash nearly destroys both their lives. | |

A.I. Is a Crapshoot: In 2019, two AIs named Socrates and Plato were created by Gogle, which had the goal of mimicking and understanding humans. However they escaped into a rocket via the internet then constructed a space station and the ETE website in order to research humanity. It's equipped with advanced technology such as being able to cause pinpoint earthquakes, and create giants with a bio printer. And by the time of 2135 they are winning a war against humanity. | |

Deconstruction: Of tokusatsu shows, most prominently the Ultra Series which the manga references directly. Along with casting a porn star as the hero, the manga doesn't shy away from showing the casualties of a giant monster attack in gruesome detail. It also subverts Hero Insurance by having Chiho arrested for all the destruction she inadvertently caused. | |

Hero Insurance: Played with and deconstructed. Initially, Chiho absolutely does not have this and is blamed for all the destruction resulting from her fights; once monsters continue to attack and it's clear they need her, however, the government pardons her and she's let out to continue fighting them. Some individuals are shown to still blame her regardless. | |

Emotion Bomb: Gigantic Satan induces suicidal thoughts to anyone within its range. Reporters say that from the millions of victims of its rampage 40% came from suicides alone. As it approaches Tokyo, birds die and fall right out of the sky, and people begin to jump in front of trains en masse, while PA systems urge people to keep their wits and spirits up to no avail. Rei's mother and Rei himself almost fall victim to it before Satan is neutralized. | |

America Saves the Day | |
Gigant (Manga) / int_c515d358 | comment |
America Saves the Day: Played with at the end of the story. America fires nuclear missiles at the spaceship containing the AIs, which does manage to take them out and save the world... but Chiho and her allies are still onboard and die, so it's not treated like the right thing to do. Additionally, they were at least able to negotiate with the AIs, so it's possible things could have been resolved without that. | |

Nice Guy: Rei is generally a shy and considerate person. It's what draws Chiho to befriend him so easily when they first meet. | |

Internal Reveal: In chapter 7, Chiho shows Rei her Sizeshifter ability in person, revealing to him that both her latest AV and the doll man's video were very real. | |

Shout-Out | |
Gigant (Manga) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Chiho mentions wanting to be like Ultraman, and parts of her story are nearly a Whole-Plot Reference to it. The sci-fi DVD she receives along with her size-changing device is even labelled 'Ultra'. The Stay Puft Marshmallow Man is seen attacking New York City. | |

On the Rebound | |
Gigant (Manga) / int_c7853b1e | comment |
On the Rebound: Invoked and downplayed. After Ryuuji runs out on Chiho, Rei's friend suggests that Rei should take advantage of this trope. While he does ask her out soon after, his feelings are sincere and she doesn't just jump into a relationship because she feels lonely after her break-up. | |

Gigant (Manga) / int_c949edd4 | comment |
Magic Pants: Averted all the time. Chiho's clothes always rips when she grows. Double-subverted when she was escorted to the battle against 3 God of Destructions; we are told she was given a special elastic suit made from NASA. That also immediately rips when she starts to grow. | |

Gigant (Manga) / int_c972d624 | comment |
Slut-Shaming: Chiho ends up on the receiving end of it thanks to her line of work, even from her family who rely on the income she brings in. The whole meeting between her and Rei is triggered by a series of posters someone put up saying "The AV actress Papico is living on this street. Please let us do you." | |

Gigant (Manga) / int_e8b295de | comment |
Played With, most of the destructive events the world goes through is due to voting in Image Boards affecting the ETE website; while Oku knows they're not full of bad people, he's well aware how many of their users are misanthropes, a subject he had previously explored in Gantz and Inuyashiki. | |

No Good Deed Goes Unpunished | |
Gigant (Manga) / int_eb8f64a6 | comment |
No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: During Chiho's hearing, the prosecution of her case calls for the death sentence for her perceived complicity in the 'god of destruction's' attack, despite some noting that she prevented the ETE's 'event' of that day (to reduce Tokyo's population down to 1 million). | |
