* PeculiarPenguin: Ginji was reincarnated as an Adelie penguin, but he was a skilled fighter before his death, and has learned to incorporate his fighting skills into being a penguin. Occasionally penguin instincts kick in but otherwise he usually acts as a human in penguin form. The fact that he has exceptional fighting skills for a penguin leads to a lot of comedy, especially his favorite move of [[PainToTheAss punching his wingtip up a bad guy's butt]].

''Tuxedo Gin'' 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.

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.

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.
