==Overview==
In this Final Smash, Hero performs an upward slash. Up to three opponents hit by the slash will be trapped in place as a cutscene plays where the remaining non-playable protagonists of the ''Dragon Quest'' series (in order of appearance — ''II'', ''V'', ''VI'', ''VII'', ''X'', ''IX'' and ''I'') appear and gather their weapons together, shooting energy upwards into the air, with the energy charging Hero's sword, who then attacks with an outward slash to launch the opponent. The game cannot be paused for the duration of the move.
In this Final Smash, Hero performs an upward slash and if the hit manages to damage at least one opponent, then they will be trapped in place and a cutscene will play where the remaining non-playable protagonists of the ''Dragon Quest'' series (in order of appearance — ''II'', ''V'', ''VI'', ''VII'', ''X'', ''IX'' and ''I'') appear and gather their weapons together, shooting energy upwards into the air, with the energy charging Hero's sword, who then attacks with an outward slash. The game cannot be paused for the duration of the move.


The Final Smash is comprised of two hits, with the second hit only being activated if the first hit manages to hit a player. The first hit of the move is a ranged sword swing with an [[electric]] effect, dealing 7% damage to any opponents that have taken damage from the hit. The second hit activates after the cutscene finishes and deals 33% damage with immense knockback. On Final Destination, the attack can KO Mario at 15% at the ledge and 40% at the center (Percentages are from damage dealt with the [[Smash Ball]] variant of the Final Smash). According to the cutscene, the second hit is the result of a powerful electric slash from the sword that the Hero wields. Likewise, the second hit of Gigaslash will have an electric effect, similar to the first.

**Like these Final Smashes, Gigaslash's cutscene plays at 30 frames per second, as opposed to the rest of the game running at 60 frames per second. It's likely this was done as a space-saving measure.

**However, unlike those Final Smashes, Gigaslash does not show the person being attacked.

**Consequentially, two bugs can occur:
*At around 7 seconds, Gigaslash had been the longest duration out of any cinematic Final Smash, with [[Supernova]] now being the longest at around 8 seconds.
***If the player returns to the Switch home screen during the cinematic, the animation of Hero swinging his electrified sword will be out of sync with the cutscene and cut to white early.
***If the [[Bomber]] is used at the same time the Final Smash hits, the cutscene can be slowed down by the Bomber.
*At around 7 seconds, Gigaslash was the longest cinematic Final Smash prior to the introduction of [[Sephiroth]], with his Final Smash (Supernova) now being the longest at around 8 seconds.
*The appearance of the Hero from ''Dragon Quest X'' in this Final Smash marks the second time the character has appeared outside of Japan, with the first being ''Dragon Quest XI''. This is due to ''Dragon Quest X'' currently being the only main series game to have never been released outside of Japan.

*''Ultimate''{{'}}s depiction of Gigaslash was later referenced in the arcade game ''{{s|wikipedia|Dragon Quest: Scan Battlers}}''.<ref>https://twitter.com/DQSB_PR/status/1198511571162390528</ref> The name translates to Ultimate Gigaslash.

*If the player returns to the Switch home screen during the cinematic, the animation of Hero swinging his electrified sword will be out of sync with the cutscene and cut to white early.
*A glitch can occur with 3 players: when one player uses a [[Bomber]] and a Hero uses Gigaslash at the right time on the opposing player, the cutscene will be slowed down and the Hero's model will be out of sync.
**This can also occur with All-Out Attack, House of Boom and Supernova.
