The usual way the Japanese to kill a whale at sea is they wait for a whale to come up for air (Whales are mammals, so they can't breath underwater), then they harpoon it.
The harpoon can sometimes have grenades inside the tips, so that it will explode inside the whale's body. The whale is then pulled close to the boat and shot several times with a rifle. The whale is then pulled up onto the boat, and cut into peices. Sometimes it is butchered alive. :(
