| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Well I damn happy that I was right from last episode with the appearance of Masako as follows,  now that was one of the 3 people I was awaiting for! There is one more left. Masako is such a teasing person being towards Asami like here. What caught most of my attention is the slingshot in the spoiler I thought that Kanba was thee most stupidest character to follow his father in the storm that does cost the father some damage but at least Kanba did have regret in all this. Still way to go DUMB ASS! You made things harder for your father. Then again I understand the emotional implications in all this. Despite all that I loved him most in the following,  His chasing that van was EPIC! Too bad really that the hat got caught into one of the doors of that van. Man he got really badly scrapped in the spoiler About Ringo, Ringo was pretty wild this episode. This episode made me fucking hate her! I really despise Ringo for what she did! Himari was right in the Survival Strategy Game about her. Other than that I vented out my frustrations but that’s not all of it. Although I did like Ringo’s cell phone picture here and it was nice to see Yuri around since she is so beautiful. I really did feel bad for her at first due to the following spoiler Stalker & Hentai girl!

| Kanba you manly son of a bitch |
 |
| I have to admit that I didn't like Kanba all along. But now I at least respect him. Damn real man. |
 |
| Fine, since everyone seems to dislike Ringo, I can have her all for me, right? : ) Ringo was freaking brilliant, not taking crap by a stuck up bitch like the Queen. At least she stand up in front of that absurd character when all the guys do is obey her or disappear (this gag reminds me of Excel Saga btw). Okay, the boys don't have much option since the Queen (via the hat) is was maintains Himari in this world. But Ringo had no idea and act like a worthy Fabulous character. One character I'll certainly love to hate in the following episode itoh : Natsume-san. Pretending to be caring to gather information and then wipe the poor victim mind out without second thought to protect gawd knows who. Way to make a first terrible impression. |

| 5/5 by definition Yumekichi11 said: ick! No way! |
 |
| This was the best episode so far imo. That chase scene was fuckin' epic. |
prismheart said: Umakoshi & Sushio was credited in this episode so maybe they animating that part I guess.That chase scene was fuckin' epic. Kanba: ANIKI OF THE YEAR |
| Ringo and Kan are great characters. |
| I want to know what happened to the blue haired girl after being shot by that weapon. |
| Gotta admit, Ringo pulling herself up from that pit trap and running up the stairway to whack penguin Queen made me lol a bit. But yeah, I was mad that she threw away the penguin hat. It would've meant Himari's death had it not been for Kanba's heroic act of chasing down that speeding truck while injuring himself in the process just to retrieve it. zimno said: Yumekichi11 said: ick! No way! Yes Way. It's the roaches' sweet revenge for their fallen brethren slain by No.2 and his bug spray can. |
 |
| KANBA IS BEAST!!! Seriously Kanba = BEST MALE CHARACTER OF 2011 I loved how queen Himari cussed out Ringo for being such a crazy stalker psycho bitch GO HIMARI!! |
[center] |
| That felt like the most intense vehicle-chase-and-cling-to-the-back scene I've seen. And for some reason I started laughing at the end when the penguin was holding on and his pants started coming off. |
Onii said: It depresses me seeing Ringo desperately chasing Tabuki only to be blocked by the blond actor. The actor might be a bitch but at least she isn't crazy. I prefer Yuri (actor girl) xTabuki because they are Fabulousu maxu! |

| Kanba one bad ass mother fucker confirmed. That was an insane but brilliant chase scene. I only love Kanba more and more with each episode man. He is so awesome and hauuuuuu~~ |

garfield15 said: Well I forgot to mention it but I am more in between the love/hate for Ringo right now it's more hate because of the last thing she caused but she can still redeem herself IMO. She should think about what she did and believe it. She does have a major attitude of "don't fucking step on me cause I am going to stomp you" kind of way. Pretty much. |
| I really hate Ringo now. It's all her fault that she threw the penguin hat and Himari nearly died. Again. |
| Kanba is the best .... besides the penguins lol @ the penguin vs roaches also penguin himari was good making fun of weirdo stalker girl |
 |
| it kinda ticks me off how himari's clueless all the time. DAMMIT KANBA STOP HANDLING ALL THE PROBLEMS BY YOURSELF. :[[ IceAndCream said: And for some reason I started laughing at the end when the penguin was holding on and his pants started coming off. that was just pantysniffer no. 1 on the move again. EVEN MEN'S UNDERWEAR WILL SUFFICE FOR HIM NOW TOO. |
 |
| Ringo didn't know what would happen to Himari when she threw away the hat, so I can't blame her for what happened (especially since I don't even think that she knew Himari was sick let alone resurrected). Now the three of them can share information and maybe figure out just what the Penguindrum is all about. I like Ringo, but she should just forget about the teacher and look at what might be closer at hand (considering she had her first kiss with him during CPR). |
Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |
| i love how ringo's so insane she defied the hat and physically broke out of the survival strategy that was awesome! btw kanba is sooooo gar, its time for shouma to step up... |
 |
| That hat pretty muched summed up my feelings about Ringo, and Kanba went totally badass. |
 |
| Lucky Kanba, his slide was perfectly smooth, I was hurting in his place. |
| I think Ringo is gonna give up on Tabuki now, since she knows Himari's life is in danger at least i hope so also, strong-willed characters are the best, it was great how she reacted to all this situation and insluts toward her (all that Princess told about her was pretty much true though) Kanba is great, true hero busters said: that was just pantysniffer no. 1 on the move again. EVEN MEN'S UNDERWEAR WILL SUFFICE FOR HIM NOW TOO. lol, hahah. OH GOD |
| Omg can I fucking choke Ringo please??!D< This stalker hentai bitch made me sooo fucking upset!! Okay, so he listens to your crazy as hell story and just nods his head, but he tells you his and you slap him?? WHAT THE HELL?! The whole time I was watching it, "Fuck, omg , if I was him she'd be tasting so much blood right now!! Freaking punch her back!! Don't her talk Himari!!D<<<" Seriously. And may I just say that Kanba is an amazing ass dude~? That scene was incredible! I was clenching my teeth the whole time!!x3 |
  |
| So much hate for Ringo. Come on guys, it's not like she knew what would happen if she threw away Himari's Soul Gem. Also that Survival Strategy scene of hers was awesome. Oginome Ringo, total badass. I really like this show, if it keeps being this excellent there's a high chance of it ending up on my favourites list. |
the Imaginary and the Real can never mingle. |
unkindness said: That was the most epic car chase I have ever seen. I feel bad for laughing through it all, even though I knew how serious the situation was. pretty sure it was meant to make you laugh though. i certainly laughed and felt damn good about it |
| Kanba is one badass motherfucker |
| That was an awesome episode. I will admit, what Kanba did as a child was stupid, it seems like he made it up with his bad assness in this episode. That was one of the best survival strategy scenes ever. With Himari cussing Ringo out and Ringo actually getting out of the hole and running up the stairs gave me a tiny tiny bit of respect for her. Can't wait for more episodes! lostmymusic said: So much hate for Ringo.

| also it wasn't nice of Ringo to punch poor Shouma like that but come on, talking about alien lifeforms? Sho, you should've explained it better.. but wait! why even bother to explain if you could just take diary without permission silly Shouma,I adore you anyway DaiTomodachi said: lostmymusic said: So much hate for Ringo.

DaiTomodachi said: lostmymusic said: So much hate for Ringo. Come on guys, it's not like she knew what would happen if she threw away Himari's Soul Gem. +1 for Mahou Shojuo Madoka Magica reference Someone had to say it. I'm not a fan of Ringo and this ep didn't make me like her, but it was nice to see someone who doesn't back down in front of the Queen (which is just as bitchy, if not more). Not the hat pull, but I'd definitely love to see a punch there. Himari going buriburiburiburiburiburiburiburiburiburiburi was the cutest thing ever. The cockroaches get their revenge, Kanba is the fucking Terminator, #2 doc and #3 nurse, laser sighted slingshots, penguin load sharks, fuck yeah. Bumped up to 9. |
"Tonight, I sit in the eye of the storm. As fire boils around me, I press forward, winds and lightning lashing my wings. I am no match for what I face. Yet I will not back down, and though fear may place it's stranglehold on my heart, courage will see me through. With tears in my eyes, I hit full throttle. My engines become an inferno, and my weapons light up, awaiting my command. If I die tonight, I will do so fighting for everything I believe in."  |
| Honestly, unless you've just skipped or completely ignored the past couple of episodes, I don't know how you can possibly not sympathize with Ringo. All of her hard work and carefully laid out plans have been Murphy's lawed to death. You can't tell me you didn't at least pity Ringo a little when Yuri started taunting her about her failures. And then there's also her backstory where her parents have been almost completely absent from her life since at least age 11. By this episode, it's clear that that's the major reason for her "yandere" behavior. And while we're on the subject of Ringo's "yandereness" just why is it a valid reason to hate her? Aside from a bit of stalking in episode 2, a caterpillar sting on Yuri and Shouma having to play lifeguard in episode 4 she hasn't done anything to inconvenience anyone. She's definitely one of the most benign examples of yandere I've ever seen. And the only reason you have to hate her this episode is because she threw this thing out the window: That fucking penguin-bitch-hat. That hat is evil: it's been acting that way the entire time, while holding a knife to Himari's throat in order to gain the brothers' cooperation. And it may have even been the reason Himari was dying. I've been waiting for this to happen ever since that arrogant hat-bitch showed her fat, penguin face: Also, I'm calling shenanigans on the chase scene. The penguin-bitch was obviously enjoying herself making things harder than they needed to be. No amount of anime physics can explain this: And the excuse that you upset at Ringo for putting Himari in danger is equally bullshit: Ringo had no way of knowing that anything like that would happen. If you want someone to blame for that mess, then Shouma is more responsible. If he had just told Ringo the truth instead of making up that completely absurd lie about penguinbitch being an alien, then none of that would have happened. The only reason he lied about it was because he wanted to be vindicated after that doctor laughed at him. He seriously shouldn't be lying for such a stupid reason when his sister's life is on the line. He should have just tell her that the hat resurrected her and is keeping her alive under the condition that they locate the penguindrum. Look at this from Ringo's perspective: it sounded like Shouma was making fun of her after admitting to reading her dairy, after demanding that she hand over her most precious possession. Then Himari, pretty much Ringo's best friend at this point, puts on some outlandish costume, starts throwing out some very personal insults, and then admits that she was the one who had her brothers spy on her in order to steal her dairy. Of course Ringo was pissed. She shouldn't have just stolen her hat, she should have bitchslapped her just like she did Shouma. But ranting about this won't help. The ones railing on her for this episode are the same ones who hated her in episode 2 and have been vilifying her after every episode since. Another thing to note: A cockroach was used as a living sacrifice to activate the penguin-bitch again. looks like they're evolving a resistance (took 6 sprays this time, 2 in ep 2 and 1 in ep 1). They also seem to have learned to fight back. |
| So much better than the previous episode, this was just awesome. I lol'd at Himari calling Ringo all the names she deserves to be called. |
 |
| I really enjoyed this episode, I don't particularly get the hate on Ringo, sure she is near enough everything Bitch Hat told her but that makes her a rather fun character to watch, besides my wish to hit her when she hits Shoma for no reason, I think the way she stood up to bitch hat was awesome, she's one strong willed person, I like that, besides she never knew she would kill Himari by throwing the hat, and by how she acted to Bitch Hat (possessing? Himari's body) she seemed slightly distraught with how Himari was speaking to her, meaning she isn't a heartless person, also I think she definately has family issues for some reason. This episode also got me thinking that Shoma x Ringo may happen I don't know why, I just think the show is gearing itself towards that eventual end, they meet each other way too much and are in too many scenes to not mean something. Kanba was a badass, I originally thought of him as a bit of a douche, I don't know how I got such an impression but it stuck with me, but after such a chase scene, seeing him all torn up afterwards, I think he's now awesome. The symbol on the envelope and the ball that red hair chick shot was the same, maybe Kanba is in the same line of business, or has some connection with her, it would make sense since he also dated the girl that she shot. Did anyone else find Shoma rather funny with his nonsensical explanations about the penguin hat being an extraterrestrial organism, I especially liked him explaining it to Ringo, since he technically admitted servitude to a hat. 5/5 for me, and can't wait for next episode, the show is gradually getting better, and I think now that Ringo knows about Himari and the Hat that she may start working with the brothers but I don't know about that, who knows the diary may not actually be the Penguindrum like we all think, but it probably is. |

| Is it only me, but I found the VA to do the child Kanba was really off... It just sounded weird when child Kanba was talking to the father... |
| The Survival Strategy meeting is really stuck to me now. Really missed it and I was like fuck yeah it's back. That truck scene was intense, funny and really ridiculous. How did he get away with just scratches while getting dragged like that. Oh well, power of love. Curious about the women at the beginning and the money. |

nonlly said: I think Ringo is gonna give up on Tabuki now, since she knows Himari's life is in danger at least i hope so I dont know if ALL her fate is already written , but if it is , she can simply ask someone to write it all down in another book (yeah it would be really big but well) and then handle then penguin drum to the guys... anyway , after all , it doesnt seems that ringo is an enemy... HAHAHAHA i just noticed (by rewatching) the penguings as doctors as the end when kanba brought back the hat |
VanisherAug 5, 2011 9:11 AM
| I really don't like Ringo's attitude, but I can respect her that she tries really hard to make her brother fall in love with her, even if it's a little weird. O.o Very dramatic and heroic chase scene there, I lol'ed when the penguin fell and started to drag Kamba's pants off. |

And dont you go blaming Shouma, he did nothing wrong about saying that the penguins are aliens or what do you tink a hat can resurrect people? You tink Ringo will believe that the hat is keeping her alive but yet she would not believe that aliens exist? oh come on the former is obviously more of a lie. Shouma did absolutely nothing wrong, instead you should have praised him for having the guts to tell what he truly is tinking knowing that people probably will not believe him because either way i believe Ringo still would not have believed him. I seriously have no problem with you talking about Ringo, everything she done is understandable to some point, but to say that Shouma is more responsible is way too inconsiderate of you. Shouma is wrong to read her diary but that has nothing to do with anything. If Ringo is willing to tell others her crazy story , she should also listen to other people's crazy stories, it is only fair. Not to give a slap for what? cause she doesnt believe him? geez, please be fair , dun just side with Ringo. Everyone has a part to play Ringo, Shouma , Kanba and even Himari. Nobody is innocent, everyone is partly guilty whether they are aware of it or not. |

Nobody is innocent, everyone is partly guilty whether they are aware of it or not. Actually I think Shouma was quite at fault, though not entirely, think logically she told him something she believed in fully, she doesn't consider a fate diary stupid, she really believes this and probably thinks others would, in comparison when Shouma says that a hat is an alien he said it kind of slowly, as if he was lying, when really he was just as unsure, she wanted him to tell her the truth but by his was of saying it he didn't seem to be, this angered her, because she thought he was purposely lying to her. I'm not saying Shouma is completely at fault, but you seem to like Shouma a lot by how your talking, maybe you should look at things from Ringo's perspective (however that may be hard because she is far from normal thus is probably hard to understand) |
