-- They wanted to save their little sister from dying.
& were prepared to do anything for it.
Mawaru-Penguindrum starts with 3 siblings, abandoned by their parents & are left to fend for themselves. Each day seemed happy & peaceful, until her health took a turn for the worst.
Himari Takakura had died. Now emerged was The Princess of The Crystal, a supernatural entity willing to prolong Himari's life if her two brothers could find the penguindrum. Kanba Takakura, the more serious & experienced of the brothers, steps up to the challenge with no hesitation, willing to do whatever it takes to save her, even dangerous & devious deeds. Shouma Takakura, the blue-haired & innocent brother, is reluctant to stoop down to certain activities, attempting to act instead as the conscious for Kanba. Listening to the Princess's orders, they track down Ringo Oginome, a psychotic stalker who holds a mysterious diary that changes fate, but only at a cost. But everything & everyone is not what they seem. Once you reveal the truth, would you still want to change fate? The story has major psychological themes & becomes darker as it progresses. It takes in more sinister characters, all trying to retrieve the diary for their own agenda whilst battling their inner demons & persuading others to do so.
To change the fate of somebody else,
would you be willing to change your own?
