History Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Gantu first appears alongside the Grand Councilor after he reports the capture of a strange floating being in space, revealing himself unconscious in a Terra one of the ship's prison cells. The two aliens are quickly attacked by a group of Unknowings, forced to flee, while a newly awakened Terra takes on the mysterious creatures. When Aqua arrives in Deep Space, she is captured by Gantu, who is in pursuit of the renegade Dr. Jumba Jookiba and Experiment 626, and marked as an intruder by the massive alien. She is then taken to the Grand Councilor. Gantu is criticized when he tells the Grand Councilor the ship's weapons are no match against the Unknowing. Aqua is hired to eliminate them instead, she is also told to search for Experiment 626 and Jumba. When the Keyblade wielder finds the fugitives in the docking bay, Gantu attempts to attack them, at first attempting only at eliminating the fugitives, but eventually targeting Aqua after she tries to stop him. Though he puts up a tough fight, Aqua manages to defeat him with the help of Experiment 626. Witnessing his attack on her security monitors, the Grand Councilor arrives at the docking bay after the battle between Gantu, Experiment 626, and Aqua is over, demoting Gantu back to patrolling the state despite his protests. Having recaptured Experiment 626, who had escaped during Terra's visit and was later given a chance to fight for survival for learning about friendship during Aqua's visit, Gantu is interrupted from tormenting the little alien. Soon after, an intruder is detected. He finds Ventus, whom he accuses of being the intruder. Ventus explains that he is merely executing an Unknowing who had snuck aboard the ship, Gantu calls him a liar,

Powers and abilities Superior strength

Gantu is the former captain of the Galactic Federation. He hails from the eighth planet of the Kreplok System. As captain, he served as second-in-command to the Grand Councilor. However, unlike the Grand Councilor, Gantu was known to be the brute force of the galactic security forces, having no sympathy for criminals or fugitives and preferring immediate arrest, rather than waiting for an opportunity to see if the criminal in question had any form of goodness within them. Following his failed attempt to arrest 626, as well as following his discharge from the Galactic Federation, Gantu went to work for a notorious galactic enemy known as Dr. Hämsterviel, who sought to capture the other 624 loose experiments of Dr. Jumba Jookiba in an attempt to take over the galaxy. Though his actions under Hämsterviel's control were entirely evil, Gantu noted several times that the job was primarily taken out of a desperate need for money, while another motivation could include revenge against Lilo and Stitch.

Personality Gantu is one of the most complex characters to emerge from a Disney animated film. He is a strict, selfish, and no-nonsense soldier. He is not evil though, but he follows his orders in an admittedly ruthless manner and tends to take the rules a little too seriously. As stated by the Grand Councilor, he has a problem with ethics. He is also quite sadistic, as he seemed to enjoy watching Stitch chained up and did not hesitate to shoot or capture him whenever he got the chance. However, he does not tolerate failure or mockery, as shown through his interactions with Stitch and Reuben. Considering his backstory given in Lilo & Stitch: The Series, it is possible that his ostracism by his peer groups has made him the cold and lonely individual that he is. Even after being fired from his position, he seemed eager to redeem himself and regain his position whenever he got the chance. He is quite arrogant of his abilities, often exclaiming how he was a former captain of the Galactic Navy, showing that he still takes pride in his former occupation. He is also quite hard-working, but can be impulsive, which often works against him.

He tends to anger easily and has a short temper, willingly resorting to violence against those who insult him. This sometimes causes him to act thoughtlessly or not listen to others. His loyalty to Hämsterviel is strictly that of an employer and worker, as Hämsterviel shows very little respect for Gantu, despite all the hard work he does. Even so, Gantu is always willing to leave Hämsterviel behind when an opportunity to make money presents itself. However, he still tolerates Hämsterviel's insults and tends to be docile towards those under whose authority he is, as shown by his relationship with the Grand Councilor and Hämsterviel. He is often called "Big Dummy" or "Blubber Butt", which he does not tolerate, as he hates being ridiculed and also being called "fat" or "stupid". Gantu is quite intelligent and has been shown to carry out decent plans to capture experiments, but usually due to interference from Lilo and Stitch, they end up failing.

He also tends to bear the most pain and antics throughout the series, getting hurt quite often. However, he does sometimes get a happy ending in episodes, such as "Clip", "Amnesio", "Topper", "Phoon", and "Snooty". Gantu can be quite selfish, as shown in "Houdini", when he took credit for Reuben finding an experiment capsule, only for it to backfire as the experiment was Fudgy, who covered Hämsterviel in chocolate. Additionally, he can be lazy, as in "Mrs. Hasagawa's Cats", when he opted to sleep instead of looking for the experiments, and a bit slow due to his serious nature and inability to discern jokes and sarcasm as shown throughout the series and in Leroy & Stitch. However, he is not completely heartless, as seen in "Topper", when he gave an experiment capsule to a little girl as a gift, and in "Mr. Stenchy", when he refused to give Hämsterviel to Mr. Stenchy because he grew fond of him and got carried away by his cuteness. He also stated that he thought it was cute when Lilo named the experiments in "Clip". He even opened up to Reuben about his childhood in "Dupe."

He is the type to hold a grudge, as shown through his grudge against Stitch and always willing to fight him back. He was even happily watching the moment when Stitch's cousins ​​were about to beat him up in "Angel". He also seems to hold a grudge against Lilo, but is less likely to harm her, implying that he at least knows how to control himself and not abuse someone weaker than him. He will also go back on a deal in exchange for a better one, as shown through his attempts to find a good job to escape Hämsterviel's employment and also in "Sample", where he sold Stitch and Sample out so that he wouldn't be hurt by the alien hunters hunting Gantu, and that he would give Sample to Hämsterviel in return. Additionally, despite his claims of hating Earth, he is shown enjoying many of the recreational activities in Hawaii, such as hula dancing, kickboxing, a spa weekend, games and sports, owning a boat, watching television, surfing, and karaoke. Despite his overall negative traits, Gantu seemingly has a good side, as he immediately became very kind while temporarily under the effects of Amnesium. Even though Gantu returned to his old self after regaining his memory, he still treasured the ceramic jar Lilo had made for him earlier, implying that he secretly cherishes her.

Physical appearance Gantu is a giant, hulking whale-like alien who resembles either a grey humanoid shark or a whale, which is a running gag in the franchise as many characters often compare him to fish, crustaceans, and sharks. He wears a black spacesuit consisting of a tank top with thick red wings on the sleeves and matching linings vertically on both sides, and pants with the same vertical linings on the tights. He also wears a grey belt with a light grey "V" on the front, a holster on the right, and black wrist guards.
