Well, so here we are. It's been around 5 minutes since I've watched the last episode of Mawaru Penguindrum. And you know what? I don't know what to write in this review.

I won't write in this review about story. Oh no. Because no matter how I would describe it, you wouldn't feel it as I feel. It just needs to be watched, to understand it, to feel it.
Sure I could tell what is it about, but I don't need to do it now.

I won't write in this review about characters. All of them are unique, but you know that. You already know that when you see the name "Brains Base" in opening. Of course if you watched Durarara or Baccano. If not, well I am telling you now: all are unique. All have secrets, and you will be surprised when you discover them.

I won't write about soundtrack or art. Because you need to watch it. You need to hear it.
(Although, there is one thing I got to say: this is the first time I see 8 endings in one anime AND all are just great and makes you watch each episode till very end.)

So as you can see, I haven't written anything important and meaning yet in this review.
I haven't encouraged you to watch it. Why I didn't do that?

Mawaru Penguindrum is the weirdest anime I've seen so far.
I watched first few episodes and wasn't impressed at all.
After first few episodes you also think it's not really interesting.
That it's not worth spending time on it.

Now I've watched all 24 episodes, I just can't believe how it evolved.
From "quite good", with each episode it just grew up to "outstanding".
That's why you should watch it.

Mawaru Penguindrum may be the weirdest anime I've seen so far.
But it has everything. Comedy, suspense, mystery. Many plot twists, great characters, magnificent soundtrack, splendid art and epic ending.

You will be suprised many times when watching this.
But for sure you won't be disappointed.
