Grape-kun (Japanese: グレープ君 Hepburn: Gurēpu-kun) (April 16, 1996 – October 12, 2017) was a Humboldt penguin at Tobu Zoo located in Saitama Prefecture, Japan. His attachment to a cutout of a character from the 2017 anime series Kemono Friends, Hululu, earned him international fame. Grape-kun began to have health issues in early October 2017, and the zoo announced his death on October 12.

Why, why would you remind me of such a terrible loss. After all these years. It's too soon OP, too soon.

We were worlds apart, but he was one of us.
Never forget the animal kingdom's very own weeb, Grape-kun.

God, my tears won't stop flowing. This show was something else, and Grape-Kun could see that.

I thought I was finally over the fact that Grape-kun passed away, it was a very sad moment but not much anybody could do and at least he's in a better place now.

Then I see this uploaded and once I get to the final page I busted out in tears again like it was just yesterday it happened :'(

Grape-kun, may you forever live on in our memories as the penguin that stole not just our hearts, but Hululu's as well.

Even after two years it still hurts knowing one of our own passed away. Penguin or not, Grape-kun was one of us.
