Fighting Power: *****

Jiger is one of the toughest opponents that Gamera faced. Possessing a wide range of abilities, Jiger can attack in numerous ways to incapacitate any challengers. If being impaled with spikes, burnt with UV rays, or hit with flying rocks isn’t enough, Jiger can also inject eggs into other kaiju which will sap their strength and bring them down. A tough kaiju to beat indeed.
