Icon-ryukiThis article is about a Mirror Monster in Kamen Rider Ryuki.

Steel Giant Magnugiga (鋼の巨人 マグナギガ, Hagane no Kyojin Magunagiga) is a Mirror Monster that is contracted to Kamen Rider Zolda in Kamen Rider Ryuki.

Appearance[]

Magnugiga appears as Zolda's Contract Monster. It resembles a Minotaur and is referred to as the Steel Giant as its size and heavy arsenal gives it the appearance of a mecha. Zolda uses various parts of Magnugiga for weaponry. However, unlike all the other Contract Monsters, Magnugiga seems to be incapable of moving on its own. As revealed in the movie, Magnugiga never attacked Zolda after he quit being a Rider.

History[]

MagnugigaPainting

Magnugiga drawn by the Kanzaki siblings.

Magnugiga, along with every other Mirror Monster, were created from Yui Kanzaki's and Shiro Kanzaki's pictures from when they were younger.

Magnugiga first appeared in Mirror World when Zolda used a Final Vent to destroy another Mirror monster and in the process barely missing both Ren and Shinji.

It also played a pivotal role in the downfall of Jun Shibaura.

Most of the time however, Magnugiga because of his large size, was used as a shield by Zolda when he was not going on the offensive.

Magnugiga was destroyed by Asakura when it was kicked into the vortex on Genocider's chest.

Magnugiga was designed by PLEX.

Trivia[]

  • Magnugiga is never shown eating onscreen in the series; this may be due to it being a machine, unlike the other contract monsters who are seemingly sentient beings.
  • While the Giga Tector and Giga Horn were never used on screen, they were featured in the R&M toy versions of Zolda & Magnugiga. However, the Giga Tector are not featured in S.H.Figuarts version of Magnugiga and Zolda. The knee pads of S.H.Figuart Magnugiga are not removable and S.H. Figuart Zolda lacks Giga Tector accessories. This is odd, since the Giga Horn is a feature of the S.H. Figuarts Magnugiga (thought the Zolda figure did lack a Giga Horn accessory).
    • The Giga Horn makes its first media appearance Kamen Rider: Climax releases starting from OOO as part of Zolda's Strike Vent feature for close combat option. It also displays the ability to shoot a single bullet in the midst of his punching motions against the opponent.
