This is the world of ''Penguin Musume''♥''Heart''. Adapted from the ''Penguin Musume'' manga running in Champion Red, it's one of the few anime to air completely online. No episode exceeds 14 minutes (counting the OP and ED), and new episodes went at 12:00 Japan Time on Saturday at http://pen-musu.jp (sometimes earlier for users of Website/NicoNicoDouga, a Japanese Wesbite/YouTube analogue) Each episode follows Sakura (alias "Penguin"), her TrueCompanions and [[GagSeries whatever comedy can fit into that short span of time]]. The web series ran for 22 episodes, all of them available at the previous link.

By the way, Music/{{IOSYS}} of ''VideoGame/{{Touhou}}'' [[MemeticMutation fame]] (specifically ARM) composed one of the ending songs.

* ShoutOut - ''KamenRider'' and ''Manga/RozenMaiden'' among others. Several episode titles are puns on other anime, and by episode eight, the OP is animated as a joke at the expense of Anime/RevolutionaryGirlUtena.

* PsychoLesbian - The Black Rose...you can't get any more psycho than the Black Rose. It doesn't help that she [[WhipItGood she uses a whip that resembles a vine full of thorns]] called the Black Rose Rabu Rabu Whip of Love...
** Which gets even weirder (and {{squick}}ier) once she turns out to be [[spoiler:Sakura's mother]].
*** Because it wasn't squicky enough that her [[spoiler: whipping of Sakura]] was accompanied by [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything visuals]] that were quite reminiscent of how [[RapeIsLove rape]] is often depicted in anime?

** Anime/{{Macross}}, MobileSuitGundam, Anime/CaptainHarlock.

----

** {{Macross}}, MobileSuitGundam, Anime/CaptainHarlock.

* IdiosyncraticEpisodeNaming - Most episode names are [[ShoutOut references to other shows]].
** Even the drama CD can't escape from this, as its title is ''[[Anime/KingyoChuihou Iruka Chuuihou]]''

** {{Macross}}, MobileSuitGundam, CaptainHarlock.

* TheMessiah - Nene is qualified for sainthood.

* MoeMoe - According to Sakura, Maguro's little sister hits almost every major ''moe'' category, and then some.

* LesYay - Sakura is rather... enthralled by Saki, who is also a fellow {{otaku}} and seems to [[SchoolgirlLesbians return the sentiment]].

By the way, {{IOSYS}} of {{Touhou}} [[MemeticMutation fame]] (specifically ARM) composed the opening and ending songs.

Sakura Nankyoku. Daughter of Nankyoku MegaCorp. {{Otaku}} {{fangirl}}. StudentCouncilPresident. Total nutcase.

* DroppedABridgetOnHim - Thanks to being [[WhyCouldntYouBeDifferent raised as a boy]], Kujira was dropped on ''herself'' at some point before the series started. She's [[{{Bokukko}} still pretty danged tomboyish]], despite her best efforts to the contrary.
** Also her fiance the ChineseGirl, Sha Chi, either has apparently still not realized Kujira's gender or she just doesn't care, although given that she sees the engagement as a way to have cool martial arts battles it might be the latter.
