As a result of Gilgamesh's banishment to the rift in Final Fantasy V and the cancellation of Makai Wars, these long-lived characters have been forced to wander the multiverses of Final Fantasy and Disgaea, appearing as cameos, optional allies, and even bonus bosses in a multitude of titles related to their respective franchises. In most cases, their main goal is to usurp something from the main protagonists, whether it's some sort of legendary weapon or the position of main character altogether. Their appearances and voice actors may differ from one game to another, but with only a few exceptions, the incarnations of Gilgamesh and Asagi seen throughout each franchise are the same character altogether. (Though in Asagi's case, she just happens to have hundreds of identical clones wandering across the NIS multiverse.)

Although they're typically met with confusion or not taken seriously by the residents of the worlds they visit due to their boisterous antics and occasional fourth wall breaking, these two are far more powerful than they appear. Gilgamesh's mastery of bladed weapons and Asagi's proficiency with firearms (which Gilgmaesh has also made use of in his FFXIII-2 incarnation) have made them a force to be reckoned with, even outranking the stats of the antagonists of the games they've invaded at times.
