Jounetsu no Penguin Gohan

情熱のペンギンごはん

Often cited as the origin of the heta-uma (or 'bad but good' ) style of manga art, <i>Penguin Gohan</i> is a classic <i>Garo</i> gag manga featuring the crude, lewd, and gory exploits of a penguin and his family. It is a wild anthology of 20 surreal stories characterized by a grotesque humor bordering on ero-guro and nonsense. <br><br> In <i>Penguin Gohan</i>, the literary genius of the eclectic Shigesato Itoi combines with the singular art of Teruhiko Yumura, one of the greatest masters of Japanese underground illustration. <br><br> The series has been published three times since its original run in <i>Garo</i>, and each edition has been slightly different: first by JOHO Center Publishing in 1980 (<i>Jounetsu no Penguin Gohan</i>), by Chikuma Bunko in 1993 (<i>Kanpon Jounetsu no Penguin Gohan</i>), and by Hobonichi Books in 2011 (<i>Sayonara Penguin</i>).
