The Drowned Giant is the 2021 eighth and final episode of the second volume, and the overall twenty-sixth episode of LOVE DEATH + ROBOTS. The body of a colossal young man washes ashore and becomes an object of fascination for the locals.

 

A scientist named Steven, after disregarding reports of a beached giant as nonsense, finally journeys to the beach to gaze upon the body himself. Developing a fascination to the corpse, he continuously visits the site, watching the local's interest in the corpse dwindle. First the people explore every part of the monstrous corpse,

Even going so far as to play atop it. But the crowds eventually go, leaving their marks behind in the form of graffiti and garbage. As time goes by and the corpse rotten, Steven continues to make his track to the beach and sees the putrefaction as a sign that it was truly alive after all. Teams of butchers slowly harvest the giant's body.

The last time the scientist hikes to the site, all that he sees are remnants of the torso, its skin hanging loosely over dry bones. One could hardly tell that the thing was once human. In the closing scene he walks through the small town, spotting pieces of the body being utilized by the town’s people: The femur has become the sign outside of a butchery,

The skull was dumped near an abandoned warehouse, and the giant's penis was preserved in a glass tank in a freak show circus, mistakenly thought to be a whale's. Over the course of the episode, Steven has contemplated humanity's relationship with death and decay. He comments on how the giant had been majestic and mysterious to the town’s people in the beginning, but in the end, only Steven remembered him and his impact. Our narrator reflects that no matter how great, no matter how small, the fate of the giant is one that we all will face one day.
