Marine Hunter (Japanese: マリンハンター, Hepburn: Marin Hantā) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Shiro Otsuka. It was serialized in Shogakukan's Weekly Shōnen Sunday from August 2007 to May 2008, with its chapters collected in five tankōbon volumes.

Plot[edit]

At the end of the 21st century, the Earth is almost entirely covered by water. Human/fish hybrids known as "Fish-Halves" inherit the earth.

Characters[edit]

Shark (シャーク, Shāku)
A sixteen-year-old Fish-Half that is part human, part great white shark, he has a tendency to go berserk whenever he smells blood, killing any humans that happen to be nearby. He is battling against the navy, as he tries to free himself from their influence.
Guppy (グッピー, Guppī)
A fourteen-year-old girl who was captured by the navy and rescued by Shark.
Shijimi (シジミ)
A young Fish-Half that is part human, part shellfish. Her island was attacked by the navy, causing her to join up with Shark.
Blue Whale (ブルー・ホエール, Burū Hoēru)
As his name implies, he is a Fish-Half that is half human, half blue whale. He is also a rear admiral in the navy that Shark is fighting against.
