when i woke up this morning, i realized Penguindrum is a gateway anime for the "DEEP" anime viewers of the worst kind. It's a bad series, a clusterfuck of magical setting and characterization that isn't very well done by any aspect, but which attempts to compensate for its weaknesses by adding in excessive visual symbolism and META. The true anon can see this as the shit it is, and may enjoy it, hate it or be indifferent to it, but all the while recognizing that the series itself, regardless of their opinion, is plain bad.
However, these very aspects that try to smear over the shit of its core make it a breeding ground for normal, sociable, underage faggots who engage in every kind of faggotry both online and in the real world. The metaworld characters all trying their hardest to look cool, the magic, the boxes, penguins, colorful clothes, the ringo faggotry and everything about the Penguindrum META world fuels their escapist fantasies, while the pity-party character backgrounds, emphasis on love, family bond and the overall preachiness of the whole series make it fit just right with the mary-sueish drives of your average preteen out there looking for love and their first fuck. Exactly the kind of shit that makes normals and underage retards eat this shit right the fuck up.
Penguindrum is basically THE series to attract the most hated anime fanbase known to /a/, which is why, regardless of individual opinions, it is the responsibility of every anon to troll the fuck out of this franchise and everyone who likes it, and ensure that no penguindrum threads ever encourage the normalfags to show their faces here.
