“Gringills like those could gobble us all up in one bite!”
Penguin, Super Mario Galaxy

Gringills are large, orange or lavender eel-like creatures with large eyes and teeth found in Super Mario Galaxy. Their name is a portmanteau on "grin" and "gill".

They first appear in the Beach Bowl Galaxy and later appear in the Drip Drop Galaxy, Sea Slide Galaxy, Bigmouth Galaxy, and Deep Dark Galaxy. They attack simply by trying to bite Mario and can be defeated by throwing a Koopa Shell at them while underwater. Gringills may be the Super Mario Galaxy equivalent of Unagi. Most of them appear in caves, and come out a small distance when Mario/Luigi gets close.

They reappear in Super Mario Galaxy 2 in the Cosmic Cove Galaxy, the Starshine Beach Galaxy and the Slimy Spring Galaxy, behaving like they did in the previous game.
