Showa era[]
Gamera vs. Jiger[]
After Jiger injected an egg inside of Gamera's lung, her baby hatched inside the monster's body and began draining him of his blood. When Hiroshi Kitayama and Tommy Williams entered Gamera's body in a submarine, they found the baby Jiger, which began to chase them through the corridors of Gamera's insides. It shot a slimy white substance from its snout, causing Hiroshi's feet to become stuck to the ground. Luckily, he managed to free himself and the pair escaped to their submersible. As the Jiger began shooting more of the substance, the kids threw their communication device at it, causing it to stick to the juvenile monster's face. A team of humans on the surface then broadcast a special frequency through the communicator which the Jiger was susceptible to, ultimately killing it.
