comment |
Tomboy Futaba Yoshinaga and her somewhat effeminate older brother find themselves in for a surprise when Futaba wins a prize in her local lottery - a stone gargoyle. Even more surprising, the Gargoyle can talk and declares itself the gatekeeper of the house and soon enough, the city in general. So begins the story of Gargoyle (nickname Gar-kun) and the city's ins, outs and magical happenings.Gargoyle of the Yoshinagas (Yoshinaga-san Chi no Gargoyle) is a series of Light Novels written by Sennendou Taguchi and illustrated by Yuji Himukai, which was published from 2004 to 2008 for 15 volumes. It has a manga adaptation that was serialized in Magi-Cu from 2004 to 2006, and an anime adaptation that first aired in 2006. |

Fangirl - Mrs. Yoshinaga is Hyakushiki's biggest fan, recording him any time he comes onto TV. Needless to say, she's elated when he actually comes to their house. |

Meaningful Name - Each of the other sentient alchemist creations that appear in the series possess one. Cherub is a winged golden statue meant to serve as a Foil to Gargoyle, Osiris is named after an Egyptian god, and Dullahan is derived from Irish folklore, believed to be based off a god who demanded human sacrifices. |

The Only One Allowed to Defeat You - Amane Higashimiya is a wealthy alchemist who believes Iyo Takahara shamed her late father, and seeks to avenge him through the defeat of Gargoyle with his own creation, Cherub. Naturally, Cherub exhibits this trope toward Gargoyle himself. |
