Tuxedo Gin (Manga) | comment |
Tuxedo Gin is a manga by Tokihiko Matsuura, which was serialized in Weekly Shonen Sunday from 1997 to 2000 and compiled into 15 volumes. The manga is licensed in English by Viz Media.The story centers around a teenage boxer named Ginji Kusanagi. At the very start of the series he is killed by a gang of thugs before meeting a girl, named Minako, he planned to go on a date with. Fortunately, (or possibly unfortunately) he manages to get the option of being reincarnated. The only problem is he ends up reincarnated as a penguin, rather than a person.The only problem being that he must live the life of a penguin until he dies, without committing suicide. Determined to still spend time with Minako, Ginji decides to continue his life as a penguin.The live action film is currently in Development Hell, since Disney has yet to release it. | |

Tuxedo Gin (Manga) / int_1f14978d | comment |
Talking Animal: Ginji can speak despite being a penguin. Subverted in that humans can't actually understand what he's saying, with it referred to as "penguinese" by others. Funny Animal | |

Sadist Teacher: Mike becomes this to Ginji when he teaches him how to write as a penguin. Another one shows up in a side story, going so far as to slap a student for being late and accusing him of dragging the rest of the school down. The student teacher stands up for the student and gets the principal's approval for her actions. | |

Informed Attractiveness: Just about everyone who sees Minako talks about how beautiful she is. While she's plenty cute, it's really not notable as far as anime girl standards go. | |

Loving a Shadow | |
Tuxedo Gin (Manga) / int_516f986d | comment |
Loving a Shadow: The idea that Minako would wait over half a year for a guy that's already dead is a bit farfetched. Possibly justified: see Single-Target Sexuality below. It's partially justified by her not knowing he's dead, though it's still a bit silly. It is implied that her routine of waiting at their appointed meeting spot every Sunday was a sort of coping method to stave off the idea that Ginji died. | |

Vile Villain, Saccharine Show | |
Tuxedo Gin (Manga) / int_7431b974 | comment |
Vile Villain, Saccharine Show: Most of the manga is a lighthearted romantic comedy, but two antagonists are notably dark. The first is a killer who disguises himself as a member of law enforcement and ends up alone with Minako in a cabin, planning to murder her to hide his trail. He gets as far as strangling her unconscious before Ginji makes it to her rescue. The other is the gang member who arranges for Ginji's death. Not only does he show no concern over killing multiple people (besides Ginji, he attempted to murder Musashi and Minako), puts Minako in an I Have You Now, My Pretty situation after getting out of prison, and tries to kill Minako and Gin with a truck after they escape from him. He's so creepy that the gang who hired him to get payback on Ginji and Musashi are terrified of him and think his methods are too extreme. | |
