Later, something else emerged from the "corpse" and began to wander around decapitating the [[Venora]]s, clearing the fog around the [[Tsutsujidai|city]]. Full Powered Gridman was called into action once more, but was easily defeated by the creature because of its unpredictable and powerful attacks. The monster then began tearing the Assist Weapons off of Gridman and strangled him, until [[Anti]] arrived, knocking the monster aside. It then shot both of its opponents with a destruction ray, but Anti got in the way to protect Gridman. Battling alone, Anti evolved into Gridknight, and was able to match his enemy. Gridknight finished off the kaiju by slicing it in half using his new cutting halo attack. {{Storylink|Collapse}}

"I feel it...This is Akane Shinjo's heart itself!"

―Gridknight describing the monster's second form.

Nanashi (ナナシ, credited as Anonymous)[1] is a Kaiju that appears in SSSS.GRIDMAN. It is Akane Shinjo's final kaiju, being the embodiment of the more violent and malice-driven aspects of Akane's personality. This Kaiju really has no name, as 'nanashi' (名無し) translates to 'nameless' or 'anonymous'.

Subtitle: **** Monster (****怪獣, **** Kaijū)

History

SSSS.GRIDMAN

This was the first Kaiju to appear in over a week, being selected by Akane Shinjo among several incomplete figures after Alexis・Kerib pushed her into making a new kaiju. It was easily dealt with by Full Powered Gridman, who launched the Breast Spark at it. But the corpse did not explode like previous kaiju and remain still.

As Akane herself starts to fall into a deep depression, a more deadly form of the Kaiju emerged from the "corpse" befoe it gleefully decapitates the Venora to destroy the illusion established in the city. Full Powered Gridman attempts to stop the monster from decimating the city, but is overwhelmed by its unpredictable moment and powerful attacks. The monster then began tearing the Assist Weapons off of Gridman and brutally strangles him before Anti intervenes, his intent to protect Gridman to settle things between them causing his evolution into GridKnight. Gridknight matches his enemy and finishes the Kaiju off by slicing it in half using his new cutting halo attack. Collapse

It, along with all the other Kaiju Gridman fought, reappeared when they were summoned by Alexis to get rid of Gridknight, since Akane refused to make any more new kaiju. It was finished off along with Gonglee when Gridknight sliced them in half using the Gridknight Circular. Decisive Battle
