4 | ''Mingamanga'' is a German... No, just to specify this, Bavarian comic written by Robert Platzgummer. It's about four boys living in UsefulNotes/{{Munich}}, occasionally fighting, but ultimately sticking together and having fun. Some of their adventures were published in the comic magazine [[http://www.comicaze.de Comicaze]] from Munich, also known for ''ComicStrip/CaptnCrazy.'' |

9 | !! This comic provides examples of: |
10 | |
11 | * AsianAndNerdy: Subverted, Vinnie is Vietnamese but otherwise not at all like that cliche. |
12 | * DudeLooksLikeALady: Korbinian ("Bini") is a HeavyMetal fan and has the hair. Also, the teacher mistakes "Korbinian" for "Korbinia." |
13 | * ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: Just half of it. The comic is set in Munich ("Minga" in Bavarian), but it's not manga like at all. |
14 | * FiveTokenBand: One Bavarian from the countryside, one Turk, one black African, and one Vietnamese. |
15 | * HairTriggerTemper: Staffie. |
16 | * MistakenNationality: On Korbinian's first day in school, the teacher mistakes him not only for a girl, but a Pole. Reasons: His last name Panikowski (because of a great grandfather who was a soldier from Prussia who stayed in Bavaria), his thick dialect which renders his home village Kleinbierbach to "Kloabirboch," which is mistaken for "Globirbow," which sounds Polish indeed. |
17 | * OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Their real names are Korbinian, Mustafa, Vinh Ngoc, and Daniel. They're almost always called Bini, Staffie, Vinnie, and Bo. |
18 | * ShoutOut: |
19 | ** When a Turkish song is played at Staffie's house, the author "helpfully" provides German subtitles. Which are really a mondegreen by Creator/{{Coldmirror}}. |
20 | ** The boys go to the Creator/KarlValentin-Gymnasium. |
21 | * TheUnintelligible: Bini, despite being the only native German of the four boys. Mustafa lampshades it: "And they tell ''me'' I have to learn German!" |
22 | * VisualPun: "Kruzifix!" |
