Samekujira

Samekujira appeared in 1974 TV series called Ultraman Taro. Samekujira (サメクジラ Samekujira lit. "Shark Whale") is a shark kaiju in Ultraman Taro.

Samekijura was a creature sent to Earth by Alien Valky with the intention of 'capturing' the beast and then using this event to show off, with the whole plan being a mask for his true intentions to invade Planet Earth. A day after he attacked an oil tanker, Samekujira followed several ships to Honshu and rose out of the waters of Tokyo Bay. ZAT and Ultraman Taro soon came to the scene to stop the monster. During the battle, Alien Valky appeared and tried to stop Taro from fighting Samekujira, but the Ultra soon managed to chase off the Alien and destroyed Samekujira with his Storium Ray. Valky returned a short time later, furious that his catch had been killed by the Ultra.
