Etymology
Au is the symbol used for gold on the periodic table, indicating the monster's golden color. The Japanese name, Gorudo Majingaa/Gold Mazinger, is both a reference to the Überkilling machine's Japanese name (Kirā Mazinga/Killer Mazinger) and in turn the Super Robot Mazinger Z. In Japanese, Mazinger sounds like the English word "Machine" and also Majin, or evil spirit/demon god.
