Tigtone's quest to enter a giant's body is interrupted when he meets a fellow adventurer named Beconka. When the two discover that they are after the same giant, they have a "run-and-fight" to their quest. Meanwhile, Helpy is forced to contend with Beconka's Jerkass sidekick, Jacques, who does nothing but belittle him.
  • Always Someone Better: Subverted with Jacques, who appears to be a handsomer, more charming version of Helpy (and appears to the same species), but is revealed to not have Helpy's quintessential Healing Factor and dies pathetically from his injuries.
  • Asshole Victim: No one cares that Jacques is dead, not even Beconka.
  • Bittersweet Ending: Tigtone mournfully part ways with Beconka. However the pieces of their souls that they donated to the giant share a singular pocket dimension. Inside the dimension the soul pieces of the two playfully fight, meaning that at least some part of them will always be together.
  • Distaff Counterpart: Beconka is effectively a female version of Tigtone in all the ways that matter (insanity, nonsensical speech patterns, lust for adventure) right down to wearing the exact same outfit.
  • Gentle Giant: The titular giant the two have to venture into is nice and friendly — his insides though, are a different story.
  • Riding into the Sunset: Parodied. Tigtone and Beconka part ways and they both ride off into the sunset. Since they are going in opposite directions, we see a single shot of two different suns setting at the same time.
  • Star-Crossed Lovers: Tigtone and Beconka are practically made for each other, something that they realize. Yet they must mournfully part ways as they both have their own quests to attend too.
