It was also appeared on the September issue of Coro Coro on August 9, 2010. The Romanization of the name Gigaiasu was later revealed to be Gigalith.
Origin
Gigalith is likely based on a boulder-like golem, mixed with traits of a stalagmite and a geode.
Etymology
Gigalith's name may have been derived from ギガス Gigas, a term used to describe a race of chthonic (Earth-associated) giants, and the word "monolith", a large single upright block of stone.
