Subtitle: Buffalo Monster (水牛怪獣, Suigyū Kaijū)

History

Return of Ultraman

A gigantic ox kaiju, Oxter acted as a guardian of an underwater graveyard of prehistoric buffaloes. When archaeologists contaminated the grave-site with their hands, the guardian lashed out, killing people with its acid. MAT was called into action, firing away at the beast with firepower to no effect. Hideki Go called on Ultraman Jack and challenged the gigantic creature, and soon the fight moved to the underwater canyons of the lake.

Jack managed to escape and use the Ultra Bracelet to drain the lake water into the sky as vapor. As Oxter roared on, the hero unleashed his Spacium Beam, sending it to ground in a heap as streams of energy continued to fire from Ultraman's fingers. The energy vaporised Oxter's flesh, reducing it to a skeleton.

Soon after the battle though, Jack, touched by Oxter's determination to guard its deceased herd for eternity long after their extinction, moves Oxter's skeleton together with the rest of its herd to the deepest depths of the lake and drops the evaporated lake water back, sealing Oxter and the rest of its herd into its tomb where it may rest in peace in an eternal slumber, never to be disturbed by humanity ever again.

Trivia

  • Suit actor: Takanobu Toya
  • Designer: Akihiko Iguchi
  • Oxter's roars are slowed down Manda roars and fittingly the bellowing and groaning of an adult bull. Some of these bellows were then later used for Cowra, another bovine monster. During the underwater battle, Oxter's roars are reversed.
  • While confirming the monster's identity, Oxter made a cameo as a Document MAT recorded monster on Marina's Memory Display in Ultraman Mebius episode 13.
  • HOLY COW!

Ultra King Vs. Oxter

The beast appeared suddenly one day, attacking a group of children. Kotaro transformed into Ultraman Taro to do battle with Oxter. Before he could quite jump in, the monster cornered a small boy and prepared to kill him. The Ultra came quickly and fended it off, engaging it in close quarters. While definitely an oddity among giant monsters, Oxter moved forward, giving Taro a hard time. As things looked bad, another warrior of light then came into the fray, kicking Oxter and sending the beast sailing across the ground much to Taro's surprise. The Ultra was Ultra King and made sure not to give the ox guardian the chance to recover, using his Star Ray to eliminate the beast, destroying its body in a great finishing explosion.
