[[Image:Jellyfishlike.JPG|thumb|right|A '''Gringill''']]'''Gringills''' are large [[Unagi the Eel|eel]]-like enemies in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. They have large eyes and teeth, and can be orange or lavender in color. They first appear in the [[Beach Bowl Galaxy]], and later appear in the [[Drip Drop Galaxy]]. They make yet another appearence in the [[Sea Slide Galaxy]], and appear for the last time in the [[Bigmouth Galaxy]]. They can be killed by throwing a [[Koopa Shell]] at them, while underwater. They attack simply by trying to eat [[Mario]], similar to how [[Bubba]] from ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' attacks. They may be the [[Super Mario Galaxy]] counterparts of Unagi.

'''Gringills''' are enemies in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. These huge orange eels have large eyes and teeth, and these eels act as an alien counterpart to the recurring [[Maw-Ray]]. Much like Maw-Ray, they attack simply by trying to bite [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]]. Gringills can be defeated by throwing a [[Koopa Shell]] at them. An even larger version called [[Big Gringill]] also exists.

In ''Super Mario Galaxy'', Gringills come in two varieties, being ones in caves and ones that swim freely. Caved ones' behavior also has two variations: Some become visible only if Mario gets close, at which point they emerge and bite whenever he approaches but remain visible in their caves regardless; others constantly emerge, bite, and retract regardless of what Mario does. Free-swimming Gringills always swim in wide, medium-speed loops similarly to the [[Sushi]] enemy in ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. The latter type is the focus of [[Giant Eel Outbreak]], where Mario must defeat three Gringills that are menacing the [[Drip Drop Galaxy]].

In ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', Gringills are a lot less common, with only the caved versions making occasional appearances. This variety still has its behavioral variation from the first game.
