Site Update: Let’s Meet the other Friends of Jinji!

With the many adventures Jinji and his fellow Ghosts have had over the years, there are many characters outside of Jinji’s own home who have ended up featuring as part of his many tales and antics. After much consideration, I’ve decided to give these recurring characters due credit and attention here on the Jinji the Gengar website, through a new page I’m calling “Recurring Guests“.

Character Profile: Enigma

According to himself, Enigma is the spirit of a human puzzle-master and locksmith who lived in ancient times. Because of his skill in designing complex mechanisms, he was employed by many to create all sorts of complicated locks, secret hideaways and puzzle boxes, with the aim of helping people to keep valuables safe and away […]

The Unexpected Enigma

The odd keystone lands with a thud on the floor of Jinji's room. Suddenly, a Spiritomb pops out. "What is this place? There's so much ghostly energy! I feel so energised!" "That naive little ghost, throwing me aside in pursuit of fun! Well, I think it's time I had some fun as well!" (Title logo)

Roughly 2.5 years since the first entry in Jinji’s official storyline, A Concise Overview of Jinji’s Mansion, comes the next entry (and the first comic strip!) of Jinji’s as-yet-untitled Main Canon. While out in Eterna Forest for another night of hauntings and fun, Jinji discovers an odd stone radiating a strange power. Little does he know, he’s about to find himself challenged by one very tricky spirit…

The Oozy Occasion!

Another fun crossover comic storyboarded by Jinji and drawn by Kumada Panda to celebrate Portal Day 2023, also known as Jinji’s author’s real-life 2023 Birthday. Featuring appearances by all of Jinji, Panda and Kitty The Gengar Queen‘s Ghost Pokémon original characters, and a cameo from Meuka as their advisor.

Mallow’s Barfday Blast!

A brand new story created as part of a role-play between Jinji, Mallow the Garbodor, and Zain, a former PWO player and long-time friend of Jinji’s who formerly role-played as a Dragonite. Originally written as a short-story, the original text of which can be found on the final page, an idea by Kumada Panda led […]

I challenged Ironicatty to draw Jinji in a Ninja Style…

So a good friend of mine from DeviantArt, Ironicatty, told me recently how she’s noticed that everything she draws for herself tends to skew towards a goth or punk style; and she’d like to draw something with a totally different vibe. Well, I’m always one for giving people new ideas; and if you’ve ever read the Origin of Jinji’s Name, you’ll know that one of his original inspirations was the Ninja. So I thought, why not ask her to draw Jinji in the style of a Ninja?

Simulated Sneezles – Jinji and Meuka’s Fake Cold Experiment

After reading a book on “Diseases of the Human Body” and learning about the common cold, Jinji decides he wants to learn just how easily snot spreads and about its infectious potential. Being a Gengar, however, Jinji has no experience of a cold to draw on to ensure an accurate experiment. Suddenly, he remembers his old idol, and realises that the self-proclaimed Master of Mucus would be the perfect companion to help him ensure an accurate experiment. Thus begins Jinji’s snottiest plot yet…
