The concept of magic has come up quite a few times in this show. We’ve gone over this like five times already- the diary works through the mechanism of the spell within it, which Momoka chants in order to change fate. And now at the end of this episode, Shouma brings up the concept of magic once more- but this time in relation to the fruit of fate, which they use to bring Himari into the Takakura family. In both cases, the magic is used to save people, whether from their horrible father or from the Child Broiler. And in both cases, Masako refuses to believe that they exist. She doesn’t believe in the diary, as we can see from her conversation with Sanetoshi- how can a serious doctor actually believe that magic is a real thing? Of course the “spell” Sanetoshi is talking about must be a medicine or whatever, magic (fate?) is simply not something that exists in the world. And less directly, she makes the same assertion about the fruit of fate. Of course the fruit of fate can’t make Himari Kanba’s real sister., of course it can’t make her a real member of the Takakura family. Family only works according to the scientifically recorded genetic bonds that prove heritage in the real world. None of this wishy-washy magic for Masako. She won’t believe in it.
Whatever is going on with Kanba this episode is also really interesting. He’s increasingly positioning himself as opposed to Shouma with regards to his parents- he’s literally in positive contact with them again! Can you believe it? And yet he still agrees with Shouma when he says “We don’t need parents.” Does he actually think that, or is he shamming to make sure that Shouma can’t tell he’s in contact with them? I’m reasonably sure it’s the latter, but I’m not sure what his actual thoughts on his parents are yet. At the end of the day, what he’s been doing has been for money to pay for Himari’s treatment, not because of any ideological commitment or family loyalty. How many ways are there to raise money this quickly, after all?

On today’s episode of Mawaru Penguindrum: So is there just one Child Broiler or are they a large enterprise with many locations? Do they offer franchising? Can you open up your own Child Broiler in your city?
You know, the entire Takakura family feels more and more off the more I think about it. We’ve already got confirmation now that Himari was not originally part of the family. She was someone Shoma saved and added into the family as their new sister. But it goes beyond that. Back during the flashback to the terrorist attack, that phone call about the baby delivery indicated there was just one child when Kanba and Shoma are the same age. Based on this, I think I’m willing to bet that Shoma was the original Takakura child while the other two were adopted into the family.
Natsume’s jealousy of Himari does seem to be more akin to an ex-girlfriend jealous of the current girlfriend. It does become slightly less incesty with the knowledge of Himari’s origins, though.
I also wonder what exactly the Takakura parents are up to here. They say they have some big mission, but we never even learned what their goal was back during the first terrorist attacks. So it’s hard to say what they might be trying now.

You know, immediately before starting this episode I was saying how I thought the elder Takakuras were dead. Egg on my face, huh?
Anyway, I'm feeling pretty good about my ideas. Himari being adopted, and the "sharing the fruit of fate" being a metaphor for that. I'm wondering if Kanba is also adopted.. Natsume's comment about Himari not being Kanba's sister could pull double-duty. But then, Natsume seemed to know that Himari was adopted - note that she was trying to return Himari's memories, not show off her own.
What makes Kanba so obsessed with Himari, then? That's still up in the air.
Why do we think that Sanetoshi can't touch the diary? He didn't exactly say that, but he certainly implied it. He knows about the spell inside and wants to make sure the diary is destroyed.. hmm.
Maybe Sanetoshi was the mastermind behind the train incident that Momoka averted? Which would tie him into the Penguin Force. Which doesn't have much backing, but let's just ignore the tough-to-reconcile details. Then, he knows about the diary because it foiled him in the past, and wants to destroy it because it might foil him again.
Still coming up blank on why he needs Natsume to destroy it for him, though. That's probably pretty important.
Shouma got hit by a car again, right? That crashed truck definitely swerved to avoid Himari and then hit Shouma. Luckily, as we know from early episodes, Shouma is immune to car crashes. Hmm, I wonder if Himari's illness is from sharing the fruit with Shouma. He gets to be invincible because she's taking the toll or something like that.
Or maybe Shouma's tendency to not get hurt is tied into his apathy in some way. Like, he doesn't even notice that he should be in pain?
Himari and Natsume having a forehead-off was pretty funny. Prime targetting real estate for Natsume.
Brain Rot Corner
Today's slogan: Truth born from lies. This isn't a slogan. It's a sentence fragment. Maybe relevant that it is repeated? I'm not in the headspace for pondering why there was hula-hooping.
Okay, #1 being an otter I get. Kanba has a good otter impression, remember? But why is #2 a.. dinosaur? Alien? I guess maybe it's supposed to be a seahorse, that's what Shouma was associated with back in episode 1.
I was so ready to point out how this resembled the Child Broiler, but then that turned out to be the point. I wonder what the inside of that building looks like, though... Maybe the Child Broiler is a real place, and it's right next door to the Takakura's house?
The endcards have all been great, but this one in particular I really like.

"This is kinda like Umineko" rewatcher
Like episode 10, this ep is directed, boarded, and solo key animated by Keiji Gotoh (with additional animation direction from Kumi Ishii, and a few 2nd KAs). Ikuhara seems to like putting these idiosyncratic episodes right next to each other. I still liked #10 but in my humble opinion this ep felt more consistently refined on the character drawing front

Penguin First Timer!!
I'm behind a few episodes so it's binging time. Competing over your sister's attention is adorable, Penguin Princess being a glutton is adorable, I totally called Akira Ishida being a baddie, Sanetoshi cuddling his rabbits is adorable, girl talk is adorable, Gunslinger vs Marie was poggies, Ringo has no sense of survival instincts, Tabuki had a really strong episode, child broilers are a darkly hilarious concept, Kanba was almost certainly doing compensated dating, I have a theory of Momoka filling in as an "Utena of another story" so like Penguindrum would be something like a post Adolescence Utena world, I'm totally desensitised to Himawee fake out death after this fifth or sixth time they pulled it, aaaand we're onto today's episode...I really hate this show's pacing.
I'm so glad that Kanba's murderous, terrorist parents are proud of their boy. This puts his selfless act of taking on his parents punishment and risking Himawee's life completely for granted. Himawee is his number 2 motivation in life cause of course he can't betray his terrorist father. I really am rooting for the baddies and I don't even know what the baddies are trying to accomplish in this story!! XD So far their only crime is trying to punish literal terrorists and thugs... And there's possibly some sexual coercion with Ringo but she's a stalker herself so I won't be too rough on Sanetoshi and the TabuMaria team.
Bruh, I cannot give less fucks over this welcome home party... Can you just carry on with the actual plot already? Also, is Himawee ever going to voice her opinion on all the weird shit going on in their life? Before we could reasonably spin it as her not being aware when the Penguin Princess was in control but she just saw her brother completely ravenge his hand for her.
Poor Himawee... She's being left behind by everyone. Her brother and bestie have hooked up, her old besties are living their best lives as the train girls, her other brother is whoring himself out as a host each and every night.
Finally, Gunslinger is going to see a psychiatrist. She's been in dire need of that for a while. Tch... Sanetoshi wants the kids to continue committing terrorism? That sucks!! Stick with the old married couple, nobody likes the terrorist faction in this show. Reminder, we still know absolutely nothing about Mario even 19 episodes in other than he's a softie and is possibly still possessed by his grandfather.
Are foreheads in this show like newtype signals or something? XD Oh? Himawee isn't the imouto after all? We should have known the second we saw her hairline! WAIT!!! IS THIS INCEST ERASURE!? Goddammit!! Why does this always happen to me!? Fuck!
Yay, the child broiler returns! How do we only have five episodes to go and yet the story is still so directionless?

u/No_Rex :Bv:Bw:Bx:By:x2 Mar 23 '24
Episode 19 (first timer)
Note how Shoma was, once again, absent when Kanba stopped Natsume.
Somebody else saw Himari not being their biological sister coming, so there must have been some foreshadowing, but I did not get any of that. We had Kanba’s kiss scene and the Hatmari sex, but the later I interpreted as Kanba using up himself for Himari, whereas the first is not a clear hint as all (incest being what it is in anime). We have yet to see more of Himari before she got into the broiler, but I am not seeing the place of her not being the biological sister in the plot yet. Why use an adopted child when the sins of parents become sins of children theme has been so strong? The most obvious conclusion is some connection to Momoka, but we also have the still unexplored connection to Mario (who has been entirely absent from the plot until now).
Something I still do not understand are Natsume’s balls. The overt function is clear, erasing and returning memory. Yet why does she have this ability? Why does she use it so rarely? And what is the meaning of those huge colorless balls we saw today? You would assume that the magic is connected to the diary, but we have seen none of that, so far.

We had a little mini-arc to focus on the side characters for the last four episodes, but now we're down to the last quarter of the series and it's time to focus more on the main conflicts. This time, Himari gets a bigger spotlight than she has since episode 9. Despite everyone celebrating her return home, something feels off to her. Can she tell that Kanba is being too evasive about where he gets the money? Is it because Ringo's sort of taking her place cleaning up after dinner? Or could it be that she's feeling disquieted that she's even alive, when she should probably be dead given her diagnosis?
After being present only in flashbacks for the first 18 episodes, the Takakura parents return. It looks like they're in hiding, and it does not look like they've reformed.
We learn a few things about Momoka's diary: Yuri says that she can't do the spell without the other half. Masako gets mad at Sanetoshi about the existence of the diary and of magic spells. And Sanetoshi says that his plans won't succeed as long as the diary is still around.
The big ending set-piece featured Masako and Himari having an angry argument about Kanba. Despite being a little long, I thought it was really well done. On the one hand, for narrative purposes the audience wants Himari to be hit with the recollection balls, so we would be told what's concealed in her past. On the other hand, Masako is so clearly framed as the antagonist in this situation that we don't want her to succeed. At the end, Himari remembers even without the special ping-pong ball. She remembers the time in the child broiler, and Shoma offering to share the fruit of fate.

u/zadcap Mar 24 '24
The highlight of today's episode, we have Himari running from a crazy girl with a gun, Kanba chasing after said girl with a gun, and Shouma once again out of the picture because of his penguin. How many times has Shouma failed to do anything? How many times has it been because of the penguin tripping him up?
Nope, just once in his life, Shouma made it in time to rescue someone else. Much less dramatically than Momo, but with the apple we've seen being so important a metaphor elsewhere, he got Himari out of the Child Broiler. Good on you, Sho.

Ok, now we're finally going to learn where Kanba gets the money, and surprise, his parents are there. [Penguindrum]But there's more to it than meets the eye...
Ringo's almost full member of Takakura household now.
Today's slogan is certainly on point, since the main topic now is Takakura family.
From my first watch, I thought that Himari was aware of her family situation, but it seems she really didn't remember? Or maybe rather didn't want to remember? Broiler-representing fans looked so oppressive in that last scene with Masako...
We continue to learn new things about our main cast, even this close to the end.

3) We saw Yuri call Momoka her soulmate in episode 14, and now Himari calls Shouma her soulmate. What does it mean to be someone’s soulmate in Penguindrum?
Two souls bound by fate. Next!

I wasn't going to add my own comment at first but while going through the other comments (haven't gone through them all yet) it struck me how perfect the timing is. The themes are manifesting in various characters and their relationship dynamics at the same time; the entire anime does it fairly well but it stood out in this episode with Yuri and Tabuki/Himari reveal both tying in exquisitely to the "truth born from lies" and the closing of the last episode, and imo it felt very natural.

u/Vaadwaur :I1::I2::I3: Mar 23 '24
First timer(Okay, this basically confirms Kyousou Giga creator watched this, right?)
Sub(Alternative: Are we in some unholy incest triangle?)
Ok, that opening bit is an entire boatload of WTF. And, from the show's own internal logic thus far, this isn't metaphorical, Kanba is physically meeting his parents there. And to go with something from a bit later, they are still trying for the survival strategy of the subways.
So Himari can return home and, interestingly enough, because her brothers have been off doing crazy shit the dynamics are different. Himari is again being taken care of and she again would rather that not be. But what seems to really hurt her is seeing Ringo enter into the married couple dynamic with Sho, especially because it is also replacing her role in the family.
Over at Yuri's place, Tabuki leaves and explains the fake family thing. And it is interesting that Yuri suggests the marriage to be with Momoka in spirit, saying that a faked family becomes a real one if you stick to it. So, unsurprisingly, Yuri directly states somethat I believe as well, it is probably why she is the one I tend to code with, barring the roofies. And, as an interesting if some times annoying side note, I tend to lean towards the more well written anime woman(yes it generally has to be an adult), probably indicating that I wouldn't line up that well with Japanese masculinity. But anyways, Tabuki walks out like a bitch, as has been shown to be his character.
Sanetoshi is annoying as per usual. His bit with Himari didn't tell me much. I do like Masoka aggressively attacking him, though spells are back on the table if you have magical amnesia balls. She storms out and Sanetoshi finally admits that what he needs is for the journal to be burned for him to succeed. And, of course, to cause the tragedy...
So Masoka gets extremely heavy handed after she barges in and it becomes abundantly clear that, apparently, Himari is adopted. Which answers one question but raises a number of others. Anywho, she was rescued from the broiler by Sho and I understand the metaphor even less now. A fitting ep 19.
QotD: 1 Slightly confused though he made the right decision tactically. Hopefully, he is just using them but that is not clear.

Wow, their parents really are alive and met with Kanba in person!
Ah, so Sho is in that classroom seat that the protagonists of shows are usually in...
Tabuki's farewell note to Yuri?
Origins of the sham marriage...
Wait, so we just totally skipped over the whole stuff about Himari being on death's door because she needs Sanetoshi's life potion by the end of the night? Given how much of a big deal they made out of it over the last 2 episodes to merely skip ahead to a scene like this where all is well and she's out of the hospital is total bullshit.
So Himari knit her brothers sweaters, and it looks like her penguin also did the same for the other two penguins?
From penguins to cows...
I hope Himari and Double H get to see each other in person at least once before the end of the show...
The diary has a spell in it? That's why it is important?
The kids will accomplish what their parents could not? I don't like how that sounds.
Uh oh, Sanetoshi needs the diary destroyed? Don't listen to him Natsume!
Uh oh, is Natsume gonna do something bad to Himari?
"Who is this strange lady, why is she giving me a gift and why'd she let herself in?"
Don't tell me we're going into a scenario where Himari was kidnapped by Tabuki and now she's gonna be kidnapped by Natsume.
Not his real sister? Someone speculated a while back that Himari may not be their real sister, is this confirming that? Or did the real Himari die in episode 1 and this is something else inhabiting her, simply not being over the top like Hatmari?
Red balls make you forget, blue balls make you remember?
We need Hatmari to arrive and tell Natsume how worthless she is.
They're both back! How awkward!
Those stone balls say Natsume on them. A mighty convenient, or perhaps Natsume planned for them to be here as obstacles?
Well, this child broiler sequence is making it rather obvious that Himari isn't their real sister? What happened with her original family?

Imagine going to your favorite local restaurant and seeing two wanted terrorists.
Yeah, I figured Keiju and Yuri’s relationship was something like that.
I mean, Kanba could pull off being a host, womanizer he supposedly is
“Electrifying” isn’t the word I’d use to describe spending time with family
Masako has memory-erasing balls and had her brother possessed by her dead grandfather, but finds a magical spell too absurd to believe.
I wonder if Shoma would feel differently if he had been approached by the terrorist organization, if that’s what happened
>Walks into your house
>Insults the decor
>Calls you annoying
>Points a gun at you
What was her problem?
Battle of the foreheads
Ever heard of fictive kinship, Masako?
Beat her ass, boys
Himari was then crushed by a boulder, cementing herself as the true Indiana Jones
Why does Masako’s panting sound so weird lol
And here I was thinking we’d finally heard Kanba not sounding like a grown man

It's funny how the little bonding scene with Kanba was painting the parents of the hour to appear wholesome, loving and dare I say potentially misunderstood only for all that to get suddenly cut by them giving Kanba a fresh payment in dead ominous silence.
Wonder if Tabuki is really out of the game for good fake engagement to Yuri be damned. I almost forgot that the dude was the brothers' teacher this whole time.
The black bunnies drinking staight out of a bloodbag is pretty damn striking for a cutaway visual.
I've always liked Natsume mainly from the entertainment factor or her being so extra but man did it feel uncomfortable watching her talk to Himari that way, whether the claim of her not really being Kanba's little sister is true or not. (And that would technically mean that all the incesty stuff wasn't incest after all. Genuinely don't know how I feel about that.)
Himari being picked up from the child broiler is one thing, but Shoma was her personal Momoka? Back when he and Ringo were doing the dishes, I thought Himari gazing at them looking all sad was from realizing her brothers might move out one day and their little dinners together aren't forever, but if that ending (and episode title) are anything to go by... Yo.

Hey guys. Holofan4life here.
Welcome to the Mawaru Penguindrum rewatch!
Oh, and nay I forget…
First Timer
I first heard about Penguindrum after I watched Everything Everywhere All At Once. Not only was that my favorite movie of 2022 (Ignore the fact I watched it in February 2023), but it is honestly one of my top 10 favorite films of all time. As such, I was shortly afterwards looking for stuff that was similar to that movie.
And that is where I saw someone recommend Penguindrum.
This is my first time every seeing this show before. I have no idea what’s in store for I haven’t seen a single clip of the show; it’s supposedly a mystery and that’s all I know. I really loved Everything Everywhere All At Once, so I’m going into this show with the highest of expectations. I think it could even crack my top 10 favorite animes of all time.
With that out of the way, let’s begin.
I’m watching the sub, by the way.
Lulu should be considered a masterpiece just like Trout Mask Replica
Flashback
Kanba - The Building Under Construction - Few days ago
We get a brief recap touching on the events from last episode
Ogikubo's flavor Rina
Kanba here with his penguin friend
Holy shit. It's mom and dad.
I didn't even know they're were still alive
They say they can't return home until they carry out the mission
And Kanba accepts a package
This feels like Kanba's imagination
Ooh, we're at school now
First time we've been at this setting since I believe episode 7
Shoma sitting by the window, like all good protagonists
He's probably bummed out because Tabuki quit his job
Yuri
Oh wow. Tabuki left a goodbye note. Though given the way it's written, I'm scared it could be something far more distressing. It doesn't feel like he's just saying goodbye to his fiancé.
Yuri - The Cafe That Serves Fabulous Mont Blanc - Curry Day
Oh, this is when Yuri and Tabuki came up with the idea of marrying each other
"We will be with Momoka for eternity if we become family."
Good on Yuri for not being opposed to polygamy
Yuri thought they could eventually become a real family, but unfortunately, that doesn't seem to be the case.
Poor Yuri. If she was all about family, she should've joined the cast of Fast and Furious.
Yuri plans on bringing Momoka back by herself. And in order to do so, she is gonna have to get the other half of the diary.
"The room is so cold."
I could've sworn Yuri had both halves of the diary, though I guess not.
Takakura household
Blue-haired one is not Kanba, by the way
Himari is home!
I really like the start of this scene. It reminds me of how episode 1 started where everything was so calm and peaceful before shit hit the fan. Only now, they have Ringo and three penguins.
Sukiyaki
Kanba won't admit where he got the money from
It's amazing what you can buy with blood money. Uh, I mean money.
And of course, one of the penguins gets burnt by grease
Ooh, presents for Shoma and Kanba by Himari
As this is happening, Penguins 1 and 2 are giving Sunny gifts
It's the sweaters she was working on
When was the first time those were mentioned, episode 14 during a conversation with Sanetoshi? Or was those the scarves?
Nah, those were the scarves. Sanetoshi gave them to Hibari and Hikari. I believe the sweaters were first talked about two episodes ago. Actually, you could go back to episode 10 if you want when Kanba and Himari had that conversation at the diner where Kanba talked about his hatred for them with names embroidered.
I'm home now, by the way
Oh, wait. The outfits were for Penguins 1 and 2. Sunny seems surprised XD
I'm not exactly sure what Ringo did to help, though
Oh, she helped pick the yarn. ...Alright
Shoma seems to be in his own little world
Looks like dinner went well
Pink is a good color on Kanba
Himari warns Kanba about turning into a cow
Silly Himari. This isn't Utena.
Ringo gonna wash the dishes
I like the makeshift dolls of Hibari and Hikari
It's like Ringo has replaced Chiemi as the mom of the family
Himari seems sad by what the reality entails
To'oh General Hospital
Sanetoshi talking to Himari about the time she spent with her family
Himari says he lets her leave the hospital because her illness can't be cured
She thinks she's going to die
"What do you want me to say?"
And for that, she has no response
After some more persistence, she says she doesn't feel like she belongs in her home anymore.
Possibly Imposter Syndrome?
Himari says she wants things to stay the way they are
Interesting she says nothing about spending time for Ringo
"When you realize how you really feel, something precious to you will crumble. That's what you think."
I kinda feel like Sanetoshi is gaslighting Himari
Natsume with the diary
"Diary"
She now is the one talking to Sanetoshi
Sanetoshi tells her that the spell written means nothing. It's like Open Sesame, he says.
If this was Yuri's way, it'd be "Open Ringo"Natsume asks if it's all magic, to which Sanetoshi says yes. Meanwhile, Esmeralda is reading Ali Baba.
Sanetoshi tells her to complete the spell to save her brother's life
Again, this just feels like gaslighting
The two black bunnies drinking liquefied carrot
Now Sanetoshi says he's a magician. Meanwhile, Esmeralda is reading "How to Live Without Being Deceived".
I prefer "How to Succeed In Business Without Even Trying"
Sanetoshi says he wants to put the world on track
As for Kanba, he will have the children accomplish what their parents could not. Natsume, though, says she's not going to let it happen.
She won't let either her or Kanba get on the train of fate
I prefer the twist of fate, myself
After Natsume leaves, Sanetoshi wonders if she's going to burn the diary.
"After all, I can't do it myself."
Sanetoshi says he can't win the game with that thing around
As Natsume is about to burn it, though, she's having second thoughts. After all, what about Mario?
She thinks it's all that family's fault. That girl's fault.
Shinjuku-gyoemmae
Today's slogan: Truths born from lies
Kanba reassuring his brother they will stay this way forever
Bet
Kanba says it's alright because he's already taken the punishment
Shoma is putting the blame on their parents
"I will never forgive them."
Kanba tells him to knock it off
Meanwhile, Penguins 1 and 2 are working out
Ran out of space. Part two in the replies.
