Fate is something to be fought against, until you can achieve the world you desire, no matter how many times it takes, I will keep looping through time.

the penguindrum was the friends we made along the way
the plot was that if you're the children of terrorists, you're gonna have a bad time

It's about how when someone sins the cost of their sin against the world must be borne and paid by someone, if not by them then by their family. If you don't like someone else bearing the weight of that sin you have to take that bad karma upon yourself in that person's place because everything comes with a cost. It uses the Aum Shinrikyo cult and the 1995 Tokyo sarin gas terrorist attack as a template for its backstory.

Western occultism is far more extreme in most cases because the history of occidental philosophy and religion is deeply intertwined with Gnosticism and Hermeticism and guides them more aggressively to their logical implications. We have lower tolerance for the concept of contradiction and ambiguity. Asahara's cult was unusual for an eastern religious movement in that it was prophetic and apocalyptic.

to be desu I think the transformation scene being amazing is the only thing that makes anyone care
the actual shaft directed episode really stands out among the desperately wishing it was shaft episodes
most of the dialogue is really vague and the amateur production levels can't carry it most of the time
but the henshin scene and rude girl make both my sakuga brain and my horny brain light up like a Christmas tree so funny penguin is aotd

Anyone read Murakami's 1Q84? It's always reminded me of Penguindrum since it delves into the "cults in postwar Japan" topic with all sorts of surreal elements and even the relationship between the main characters has a fated love element rooted in being children of cultists.
