Penguinspoilerdrum:
From Otona Animedia vol 2
Nishii: I’m planned to be the animation director for episodes 13, 18 and the finale, and then I’ll be drawing illustrations for magazines. I’m doing some of the key animation for episode 18 and it reminded me that Penguindrum has some actiony parts, and I’m also the animation director for the final episode so I feel like I have to do all the hard parts. Yamauchi Shigeyasu is directing episode 18, so I think it’ll be a pretty unique episode. Please look forward to it.
Yamazaki: I’m in charge of episode 14, but I think Ms. Yuri’s doing some sexy things. I like to think of myself as the “sexy” director on the staff.
Shibata: I’m directing episode 15 and Yuri’s serious past will become clear. Director Ikuhara told me that episode 15 is an important key to the story. Since it’ll clarify some of the mysteries about Penguindrum/the Penguin Drum, please look forward to it.
Kimura Subaru: Actually, around episodes 16~18 the way the story unfolds will change dramatically.
• Aside from Ikuhara writing the script, everything else about episodes 16 and 17 is TBA
• Shoma will try to part with Ringo after this
• Masako's going to be doing things the audience couldn't even imagine from here on, perhaps there's some incident that will/has shaken Kanba even more?
• Ringo manages to solidify her resolve to break free from the curse of the diary and live out her own fate
• Tabuki and Yuri still have roles to fulfill
• Having given her the medicine, Sanetoshi now holds the key to Himari's survival, and the balance between the three Takakura siblings begins to crumble
• "If [the show] is a roller coaster, the first half is just the ascent, it gives you time to enjoy the scenery. But, the in the second half... you fall at immense speed (lol). It's scary and heartrending."
• The penguins are going to stay silly (meno male XD)
