Join Sentai Filmworks in marching to a different beat as they announce their latest acquisition, the quirky, unusual, and always off-beat Penguin Drum. Featuring
direction and series composition by Kunihiko Ikuhara (Sailor Moon,
Revolutionary Girl Utena) and with character designs by Terumi Nishii
and music by Yukari Hashimoto (MM!, Mayo Chiki!).
Penguin Drum will be available through select digital outlets with a home video release on both bilingual DVD & BD later this year.
Synopsis: Once
you make a decision, does the universe conspire to make it happen? Is
destiny a matter of chance, a matter of choice or the complex outcome of
thousands of warring strands of fate? All twins Kanba and Shoma know
is that when their terminally ill sister Himari collapses at the
aquarium, her death is somehow temporarily reversed by the penguin hat
that she had asked for. It’s a provisional resurrection, however, and
it comes at a price: to keep Himari alive they need to find the
mysterious Penguin Drum.
In order to do that, they must first find the
links to a complex interlocking chain of riddles that has wrapped around
their entire existence, and unravel the knots that tie them to
mystifying diary and a baffling string of strangers and
semi-acquaintances who all have their own secrets, agendas and “survival
strategies.” And in order for Himari to live, someone else’s chosen
destiny will have to change. It’s a story of love, fate, life, death … and Penguins: PENGUIN DRUM!
