  たまらないペンギン愛
  Irresistible penguin love
  ツイッターで作者様のかっこいい紳士になった擬人化ペンギンイラストを見かけて、興味を持ちました。単行本があると知り思い切って購入…大正解でした！絵の上手さも勿論なのですが、漫画の中にこれでもかーと詰め込まれたペンギン学が楽しい、なんというペンギン愛。ペンギン知識と漫画が上手くリンクしているのも楽しいです。続刊してほしいなと思いました。

  I saw an anthropomorphic penguin illustration of the author becoming a cool gentleman on Twitter, and I became interested. I knew there was a book, so I took the plunge and bought it... that was a great answer! Of course, they are good at drawing, but penguin studies, which are so packed into comics, are fun, what kind of love for penguins. It's also fun that penguin knowledge and comics are well linked. I wanted it to be published again.

  ペンギンの生態が良くわかる漫画です
  It's a comic where you can clearly understand the ecology of penguins
  ペンギンが擬人化して夜のお店(？)「社交場」で働くお話。30ページくらいまでフルカラー、残りは白黒トーン漫画です。ペンギンの種類から生態までトリビアに溢れ、楽しく知る事ができます。今までは漠然とペンギンの群れ、という見方をしていた水族館のペンギンでしたが、とても個性豊かで仕草1つにも意味があると分かったので、観察するのが楽しくなりました。そして何より可愛らしいペンギンと燕尾服な髭ダンディーが全ページに！眼福です。ペンギンに興味がない方にも、ペンギン好きさんにも、紳士好きさんにもお薦めな御本でした。続編が出版されたら、是非購入したいと思いました。

  Penguins personify the shop at night (?) A story about working in a “social place.” Up to about 30 pages are full-color, and the rest are black-and-white tone comics. It's full of trivia, from the types of penguins to their ecology, and you can enjoy learning about them. Until now, aquarium penguins were vaguely viewed as a group of penguins, but I learned that they are very unique and that every gesture has meaning, so it became fun to observe them. And above all, a cute penguin and bearded dandy in a tailcoat are on every page! It's a blessing for the eyes. I recommend this book to those who are not interested in penguins, penguin lovers, and gentlemen lovers. Once the sequel was published, I definitely wanted to buy it.

  ペンギントリビア集
  Penguin Trivia Collection
  秘密の社交場で働く燕尾服を着た擬人化されたペンギン達のお話です。各ペンギンの見分け方から生態までペンギン知識に溢れています。ギュギュッと詰め込まれすぎてて情報量が多いので、混乱しつつも勉強になりました。これを読んでから「いきものBL図鑑」のペンギン編を再読してしまいました。

  This is a story about anthropomorphic penguins wearing tailcoats who work in secret social settings. We are full of penguin knowledge, from how to identify each penguin to their ecology. It was so tightly packed and there was a lot of information, so it was a learning experience even though I was confused. After reading this, I reread the penguin edition of “Living Things BL Encyclopedia.”
