| I laughed when they called it gritty |
| Never heard of it but I didn't expect it to involve penguins. |
| Being one of the 5 people who have actually read this series, I can say it's really perverted and won't work as is for a Disney movie. Disney is probably just going to take the basic premise and throw everything else out the window. Get ready for a CG penguin and it's wacky adventures that won't be anything like the manga! Still, I'll probably watch it when it comes out since I love penguins, and the fact that this obscure manga out of all things is getting made into a movie is so random and kind of cool. |
| i've read this manga. minus the non-G rated scenes, it was actually pretty good! i really liked it. was hoping for an anime. but a Disney movie would be good :D |
| Disney, HAHAHA, OH WOW. |
| I thought it said "Tuxedo Mask" a first... FUCK!! |
| This is really random. Ousto said: I am sure it's going to be quite different, especially since it's Disney. The ecchi nature of some manga/anime doesn't translate well for the average American.Being one of the 5 people who have actually read this series, I can say it's really perverted and won't work as is for a Disney movie.

| How dare he share the same surname as Motoko? |
| Even when I was in crowd, I was always alone |
atomusku said: Reminds me a bit of that movie where this dude dies and is reincarnated as a dog, and then goes back to his family. Always forget the name. I'm willing to bet it's going to be somewhat similar to that, regardless of how the manga actually plays this premise. The TV show 100 Deeds for Eddie McDowd? |
| "The protagonist is a young street fighter who falls into a coma and learns that he has lived his life so selfishly that he only has enough karma points to be reincarnated as an animal 15 pounds or less. Trapped in the body of a chin-strap penguin, he tries to overcome the humiliation and rack up enough good deeds to get his old body back and save the girl he loves." vs. "High school student Ginji Kusanagi is about to make his dreams come true. He's made his professional boxing debut and is ready to go on the first date with the girl of his dreams, Minako. However, the unthinkable has happened. Ginji is in an accident, and his spirit is seperated from his body, effectively killing him before his time. A (sort of) angel tells him that he can be reincarnated as an animal and return to his body after he's lived out its lifespan. He chooses to be reincarnated as a penguin, Minako's favorite animal. Now Ginji lives with Minako as Gin the penguin and just tries to make it along as a penguin while waiting to be returned to his body." Without cheating guess which one is Disney's adaptation. Heh... XD If Disney were to close shop tomorrow, I would be one of the people who would not miss them. |
| Signature? I ain't got no signature! I don't need no signature! I don't have to show you any stinkin' signature! |

| Funny, because I was just looking through all my old Disney VHS too. This is honestly the strangest news I've seen lately, hopefully Disney won't screw it up. Hopefully. *PLEASEDON'TBECGANIMATEDPLEASEDON'TBECGANIMATED* |
| A Disney made animation based on a Japanese comic? Win. I would totally watch that |
 |
| They'll probably only adapt the basic premise anyway. I'll treat it like I treat any other Disney movie. Live action: Ignore. Animated: Watch it immediately and love it. |
 Znips: When Shay is born she just crawls back in the womb to shitpost for another year |
| If it's animated this could be at least a decent watch. Probably nothing amazing, but fun none-the-less. If it's a live action I say kill it with fire. |
| Well, penguins are definitely taking over the world. Haven't heard of the manga but I might as well try it out, I'm curious to see if this thing has any form of bestiality or anything else weird in it. And since Disney can't make live-actions I'm hoping it'll be animated. |
| Haven't heard of the manga either. Seems kinda good, especially with them penguins. A shame that Disney's making the movie, as it sucks so bad. |
| レッツゴー ED イケイケゴーゴー |
| Ughh........................... |
| Just further proof that disney has lost any originality it once had, and they've run out of popular fairy tales and triplicate sequels of them so they are finally giving in and admitting the japanese do story better. |
 I am a banana. |
| Its Disney. I will NOT watch, unless Pixar or Miyazaki is involved. Neither will be, so I won't be bothering to watch this at all. Simple as that. |
| it'll be completely different from the manga |
| I'm pretty sure they are going to be American. As long as Miley Cyrus doesn't play the american version of Minako, I'm fine. |

Roxxy-Baby said: I thought so too. I was going to start celebrating. :(I thought it said "Tuxedo Mask" a first... FUCK!! |
| Oh for fuck's sake, not another penguin movie. |

| Never enough Penguins. Ever. |
| well let them try, many have tried to adapt anime and manga an failed.....why not see if we can add Disney to that list. |
| If this were animated I might actually go see it. |

MadDogV2 said: Couldn't have said it better, mate. |
Roxxy-Baby said: I thought it said "Tuxedo Mask" a first... FUCK!! lol I had a similar thought |
MadDogV2 said: D: Indeed. I was in denial when I first read the title and thought it meant an anime adaptation, because I adore that manga. Why can't you just make your own penguin movie Disney? Huh? Adaptations are fine but come on. Let's see a little originality here. The style of this manga and of Disney are too different for me to be excited about this. I'm pretty sure they picked this specifically because it has a cute penguin in it. Which is dumb, because there are other anime/manga that could probably be used by Disney and end up completely adorable. Ah well. I'll try to hope for the best but... eh. |
| Disney made a movie based on manga? and on top of it, they choose to make adaptation from some random crazy manga called Tuxedo Gin??!! lol lol lol lol i'll totally watch this! |
| What? I doubt it'll be animated. It's all about computer-animated these days and I can't stand watching those kind of movies anymore. |
| Uh... Wut? |
 Rand0mless's PokePet   Kuro the level 76 Umbreon! |
| A manga that ended over 10 years ago with relatively little popularity? So random, lol. |
  |
| I'm pretty sure this is going to be a CGI movie... and I dislike CGI movies. I hope it's worth the watch though. |
| i wonder who will the the voices |
| it reminds me of that movie Jack Frost where the guy dies and turns into a snow man its probably goin to be a live action film with cgi because it's the guy who directed night at the museum |
| Disney gonna rule the world |
| I would so love this animated. Haven't read the manga, but the storyline sounds so cute and promising. But Disney will probably make it a live action or a CGI. Wish they could just go back to the old days with the animation |
