It is unknown when Dayakka initially acquired this machine, but it was believed to be similar to when Kittan acquired his own Gunmen, as the two seem to know each other well. Dayakka would only pilot it a few times, most notably during the siege of the Dai-Gunzan. When the Dai-Gunzan was captured and renamed Dai-Gurren, Dayakka was chosen to be the new battleship's captain. As such, he gave Dayakkaiser to Kittan's sister, Kiyoh. She would pilot it for the remainder of the war, mainly acting as support artillery, because Kittan was hesitant to allow her to go into the front lines.
