Penguindrum - I'm in episode 3, I'm not liking it. Does it get better? Should I drop it?
>>153571982
It gets better as it goes on.
Also, half the fun was reading the gg translator's notes on the literary allusions in the episodes. I wonder if that site still exists?
SEIZON SENRYAKUnah not really
>>153571982
ok spoil it for me because I already understood taht is a show that if you know nothing about going in, you won't understand shit.
What the hell are the apples? What does this image mean? I haven't seen any apples in these 3 episodes should I have seen them?
>>153572263
no, apples are in the show.
is this show going to be more up his own ass that Ergo Proxy?
I dropped it halfway through. I just hated the characters.
>>153571982
No, it doesn't. It's pretentious bullshit all the way through.
>>153572263
>I already understood taht is a show that if you know nothing about going in, you won't understand shit
No, it isn't. It all makes more sense by the time you finish the show and requires only a bit of reflection to understand. Considering the length of the show however, it's up to you to decide if you want to watch it the entire way through. If you don't like it by Episode 3, then you probably shouldn't bother.

APPLE
>he doesn't like MPD
And here I thought shit taste was just a meme.
It's pretty terrible until the shitty stalker girl's arc ends
>>153572594
should i like the reused animation of she transforming or something?
>>153572263
>What does this image mean?
That the act of sharing an apple will be a relevant symbol in the show eventually and someone tried reading too much into it.
>>153572618
do you know which episode it ends?
>>153572729
It's been a long time since I've watched it, so I could be completely wrong, but it feels like around episode 16ish. I know it took up like half the show.
>>153572765
Really? I thought it was more around episode 8 or 9? Ringo's still around but the focus shifts more to the siblings and other characters.
>>153571982
Isn't there like a story that you need to know before watching this show, or else the show wont make sense?
>>153572765
More like 8.
9 is when shit starts gettingsurreal.
>>153572887
Was it? It felt like a long time, so I may have inadvertently exaggerated it a bit.
>>153571982
No, it's a meme show. Complete fujoshit garbage.
>>153573917
>fujoshit garbage
I'm glad it aired a little before the whole fujo and yuri melodrama took over /a/, the threads were actually good and on topic despite having all kinds of shipping.
>>153574112
I already called shows out when they were fujoshit before it was cool.
>>153574181
What about yurishit?
>>153574523
Yuri is fine. Yurifags are the problem.
>>153572263
One thing you need to keep in mind is that the plot is secondary to the characters. Some people focused too much on trying to make sense of the (admiteddly confusing) plot and missed the forest for the trees.
Drop it now. Just don't bother, it's not for you lowlives anyway
