In this situation:

xxxxxxxxxxxx

xCxxxxGxxxT

Where:
x= normal terrain

T=Target (normal character)

Can target see the colossal?
Can colossal see the target?

Thanks for your help.

This character can’t be knocked back. When this character makes a close combat attack, it may target characters on higher elevations. This character ignores the effects of hindering terrain, elevated, and outdoor blocking terrain on movement and can move through squares adjacent to and occupied by smaller opposing characters. Smaller characters do not block line of fire to or from this character. This character may draw lines of fire (and have lines of fire drawn to it) as if the character occupied the elevation equal to or greater than the elevation it occupies, using the elevation level with the least restrictive line of fire. Characters with the combat symbol are smaller than those with the combat symbol who are smaller than ones with the symbol. This ability can’t be countered

The question arises because in reading the LOF tool says "blocked".

That tool shows that a giants LoF is Block by a Giant. Also if that from the ff or blackest night starter its Out of date.

So the giant blocks the colossal's LOF to the normal. But the giant does not block the normal's LOF to the colossal.

This is incorrect. The colossal has LoF to the normal character and the normal character has LoF to the colossal. LoF is almost always reciprocal.

Unfortunately there is not an updated LoF chart.

The colossal gets the hindering bonus only if it is targeted at the lowest elevation. But you can always target giants and colossals on a higher elevation, so then you could bypass the hindering terrain modifier.

GREAT SIZE
This character can’t be knocked back. When this character makes a close combat
attack, it may target characters on higher elevations. This character ignores the
effects of hindering terrain, elevated, and outdoor blocking terrain on movement
and can move through squares adjacent to and occupied by smaller opposing
characters. Smaller characters do not block line of fire to or from this character.
This character may draw lines of fire (and have lines of fire drawn to it) as if the
character occupied the elevation equal to or greater than the elevation it occupies,
using the elevation level with the least restrictive line of fire. Characters with the
combat symbol are smaller than those with the combat symbol who are
smaller than ones with the symbol. This ability can’t be countered.

I Guess i worded it poorly. Collosals and Giants Ignore smaller charcters for line of fire
