''Ino-Head Gargoyle'' is a SpinOff of ''Manga/GreatTeacherOnizuka'' and ''Manga/GTOTheEarlyYears'' focusing on Onizuka's friend Toshiyuki Saejima, formerly a {{Japanese Delinquent|s}} and currently an officer with the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

* ReallyGetsAround: Shizuka has been with over a thousand men. To visualize this, Saejima buys a thousand sausages and lays them on the ground in front of the police station.
