It’s been more than ten years since Mawaru Penguindrum premiered and it remains one of the most creative and best anime ever produced. Re:cycle of Penguindrum, a re-editing of the series as two compilation films including new material, premiered this year, and has renewed interest in the series.
One of the iconic images from the show is of Himari’s transformation sequence and the the character she becomes, the Princess of the Crystal. This illustration is by one of my favorite artists, who for the first time has recently starting posting fanart, and is putting out many such drawings. I’ve been in heaven!

Oo, very cool looking! I just found this series on HiDive and I was going to try it out, now I can’t wait to try it!
It is a crazy ride! If you do watch it, I recommend that you do what I did, which is to read along with these episodic as a companion, which help really explain the weird happenings and add depth to the watching experience: https://altairandvega.wordpress.com/category/episodics/mawaru-penguindrum-episodics/
