The Black Giant, Nergigante.

Probably the most best fight in the game, bar some wonky hitboxes. He also dies pretty quickly so farming his isn't such a drag. His 2nd phase fight is where it really picks up though. He gains a lot a more moves and his spikes turn black much quicker. If the whole entire fight was the 2nd phase then he might be the hardest monster in the game.

I can see why many people don't like his design cause he's just a spikey dragon with big horns, but I don't really mind. He uses them for battle and don't look goofy. It's weird that he has paws though. I guess he's part bear/lion.

His armor is cool, his weapons are useful, and cements his place in the story. I hope they improve or expand upon Negigante later on.

I kinda want to see Nergigante trash other fan-favorite elders just to see their suffering. Feel what I felt when Agnaktor was killed by Brachy.
