RE: cycle of the Penguindrum Visual Released
Can a penguin-filled mystery throw us into an endless cycle of hows, whats, wheres, whens, and whos?
Leave it to the Director of Penguindrum to make it wholesome on the outside and philosophical on the inside.
The first teaser visual for the first part of the 10th-anniversary film, RE: cycle of the PENGUINDRUM, has been released.
Part of a two-part compilation film project providing a reconstruction of the anime series combined with new scenes, RE: cycle of the PENGUINDRUM is all set to make us put on our thinking hats.
Survival strategy,
For a moment we are frogs.

The visual appears to be simple but powerful. The penguin headdress worn by Himari Takakura is displayed beside an illustration of an apple, a recurring trope in the original Penguindrum TV anime series.
The compilation films are set to premiere in 2022, ten years after the original 24-episode anime first aired.
This comes as extremely good news since a crowdfunding campaign to support the film’s production costs raised a whopping 105,192,960 yen (US$957,606) against a funding goal of only 10 million yen.
With his direction of RE: cycle of the PENGUINDRUM, Kunihiko Ikuhara is sure to make us contemplate life, death, and fate once again.
