Galo Sengen ("Galish Man GAL" in English / GAL男宣言 in Japanese) is a 2011 rap music video by the Japanese hip-hop group Policeman.
The animated music video became well-known for its humorous depiction of a Japanese youth culture known as "Gyaruo," which is characterized by the dark tanned skin, dyed blond hair and appreciation for dance music.
In the video, a group of men are satirically portrayed as Super Saiyans, a type of superfighters from the Japanese manga franchise Dragon Ball, who transcend into the state of "galish" or "gyaru," a slang term derived from the Japanese pronunciation of English word "girl."

Where it came from
GAL Otoko Sengen, a manga series by Koji Nanjyo published in the late 1980s, emerged during a period of prolific creativity in Japan's adult-oriented seinen manga market. The title, which translates roughly to 'Gal Man Manifesto,' reflects the era's fascination with bubble-economy social dynamics, juxtaposing stylized fashion subcultures with traditional archetypes of masculinity. It was produced for readers seeking a blend of lighthearted romance and the evolving social commentary prevalent in seinen publications of the time.
The illustrative style is characteristic of Nanjyo's work, utilizing bold line weights and exaggerated character features common in late Showa-era manga design. The series was designed to appeal to urban readers who consumed media centered on fast-paced metropolitan lifestyles and shifting gender roles. While it remains a niche artifact from a specific historical window, it is frequently cited by collectors for its aesthetic embodiment of 1980s Japanese graphic design trends.
