GODZILLA: Ceaseless Combat/Gigan

Gigan is a playable character in GODZILLA: Ceaseless Combat. He is based on the Millennium incarnation of the character from Godzilla: Final Wars(2004), specifically his non-modified form from the first half of the film, albeit somewhat shrunken down from his appearance in that film.
==BACKSTORY==
This kaiju is a spacefaring monster that was under the control of two alien races: first the insectoid Space Hunter Nebula M aliens, who gave him his robotic, cybernetic weapons, and then the Xiliens, who improved them further. The result: a creature decked head to toe in lethal weapons, from giant scythe-shaped claws for hands and barbed wire harpoons to a hyperspeed rotating abdominal saw and the ability to fire alien energy in various froms from his eye. Gigan's sharpest and most dangerous weapon, however, is his surprising intelligence and cunning. His tactical mind makes him a natural "vanguard", instructing his less intelligent cohorts in ways to make the enemy suffer. But these smarts and sadism are matched by his massive cowardice, frequently fleeing and abandoning those same cohorts when things go slightly against his favor.
==GAMEPLAY==
While Gigan does have respectable long-ranged capabilities, it's up close where he really shines. Tremendous melee damage and agility means that if he gets a combo started, it just might be impossible to break out. Fleeing won't work either, since as if frighteningly fast speed weren't enough, he can also fly and teleport to close the distance even faster. Many of his attacks, on top of doing high damage on their own, easily combo into each other with their limited knockback or hit multiple times in one attack. However, he has less Health Cells than most monsters and on top of this his defenses, especially his resistance to weapons, are far below subpar. Get reckless when using him, but not too reckless.

==MOVESET==
Input 	Name 	Element	Type 	Energy Cost 	Description
High Attack 	Scythe Hook 	 	Melee 	-- 	Gigan, very quickly, swings with a scythe. Repeatedly press the High Attack button to continue the assault indefinitely.
High Up 	Claws Pounce 	 	Melee 	20% 	Gigan lunges forwards, making a small hop, before slicing downwards with both scythes. Does tremendous damage.
High Down 	Circle Slice 	 	Melee 	-- 	The alien does a small jump forwards before quickly flying in a circle and making a circular slice in the air before landing where he started. This attack does the most damage in the second quarter of its duration, when Gigan is starting to fly upwards.
High Left/Right 	Heart Lash 	 	Melee 	-- 	Gigan quickly stabs with his tail.
Low Attack 	Scythe Flail 	 	Melee 	-- 	The cyborg monster reaches forth to strike his opponent with one scythe. Does far more damage than Scythe Hook, but is not suited for combos as it knocks back the opponent.
Low Up 	Jumping Talons 	 	Melee 	20% 	Gigan jumps high, kicking with both feet. If he lands with this attack, he backflips off the opponent and lands a distance behind where he started.
Low Down 	Continual Kick 	 	Melee 	-- 	The monster leaps forwards and throws a kick. If he lands the kick, press the Low Attack button to do a second, then if that lands press the button again to do a third.
Low Left/Right 	Flamethrower 	 	Weapon	30% 	For a brief moment, Gigan fires a flamethrower from his mouth.
Strong Attack 	Boomerang Blades Burst 	 	Weapon	10% 	After a brief delay, Gigan fires four miniature buzzsaw blades forwards, the blades eventually fanning out as they travel. The blades will eventually boomerang back to where Gigan was standing when he started the attack, then continue on their path for a bit more distance before exploding with no damage. Gigan is not immmune to damage from his own blades if he gets hit by them.
Strong Up 	Revolver Slice 	 	Melee 	-- 	Jumping into the air, Gigan launches forwards while curled into a ball, slicing through everyone in his way.
Strong Down 	Ninja Revival 	 	Melee 	-- 	A very difficult move to pull off, this requires Gigan to use this attack almost in unison with being hit or grabbed. If done correctly, damage is nullified as Gigan falls over, only to suddenly spring up, wickedly swinging with his scythes. During this and for some time afterwards, Gigan is invincible. This can only be used successfully once a Health Cell.
Strong Left/Right 	Spinning Fury 	 	Melee 	-- 	Holding out his arms, Gigan quickly advances forwards while spinning like a top, lifting off the ground slightly in the process. This completely ignores attempts to block, and if anything only does more damage.
Primary Weapon 1 	Shotgun Gigarium Cluster	 	Weapon	20% 	From his eye Gigan fires a very quick-moving beam that explodes into multiple blasts like a cluster bomb after travelling a certain distance or upon hitting something.
Primary Weapon 2 	Laser Knife 	 	Weapon	33% per second	Gigan looks to the right and quickly looks to the left, his eye firing a mid-ranged blue laser all the while. As a result, the laser cuts down anything in its path, hence the name.
Continuous Breath Weapon 	Laser Beam 	 	Weapon	25% per second	Gigan discharges a beam of alien energy from his eye.
While grabbing foe, Throw 	Jet Cutter 	 	Melee 	-- 	With his opponent held tight, Gigan's buzzsaw begins to spin rapidly as the cyborg monster cuts his foe numerous times on the sharp blades.
While grabbing foe, Throw Up 	Skyward Hook 	 	Melee 	-- 	The cyborg monster uses his hammer claw to quickly punch his held opponent skyward.
While grabbing foe, Throw Down 	Mach Jet Cutter 	 	Melee 	33% 	Gigan stabs his claws into the foe and slams them into the ground, then uses his buzzsaw to carve into them at an even more rapid pace than usual.
While grabbing foe, Throw Left/Right	Point-Blank Blade 	 	Melee 	50% 	Gigan fires his eye beam repeatedly, blasting the foe and knocking them backwards.
Special Technique 	Teleport 	-- 	-- 	50% 	Gigan warps a distance in front of him. During the startup animation, additionally press in another direction to warp in that direction instead, covering more distance.
Rage Attack 	Hyper Genocide 	 	Melee 	-- 	For this Rage attack, Gigan backflips away, charges up, then sprints forwards in the direction of an opponent nearby. If he connects, the cyborg monster latches onto his foe and unleash a long series of slashes and slices with his scythes and buzzsaw.
