All brothers Shoma and Kanba know is that, after collapsing in an aquarium and apparently dying, their terminally ill sister Himari was somehow revived by a Penguin hat that she had wished for. Now they're on an impossible mission, because the price of keeping Himari alive is to find a mysterious object called the Penguindrum, and they'll do anything to save their sister. Anything. As they travel separate paths in their search, they'll have to unravel complex riddles, make alliances with strangers they know they shouldn't trust, and question the very fabrics of time and destiny. In two spectacular feature films combining elements from the acclaimed television series plus dazzling new scenes and characters, the Penguinture begins again in Re: Cycle of the Penguindrum, Parts 1 and 2.

So now they're stuck in a loop, caught up in ancient game that's far more complicated than chess... and also playing a lot of Shogi as well... wondering When Will Ayumu Make His Move?

As what seemed like a simple way to help others continues to expose new and shocking revelations, Medaka, her self-appointed protector Zenkichi, and their recruits find themselves left with no other option: it's time to start laying down some serious smackdown in the ultimate Student Council-endorsed battle royale in Medaka Box.

Still, for all their hopes and wishes, their future as the next animation wunderkinds is looking rather sketchy... until they meet Tsubame Mizusaki, who daydreams about becoming an animator, even though her parents have forbidden her from joining their school's anime club.
