[up] I hate to admit it, but that's what I was thinking as well. (It's Ikuhara, I expect a certain amount of strangeness along those lines)

Futa is the first thing that came to mind, but her affair with that actress seems to go against that

What the heck. Even Yuri is fucked up in some way. And oh god, that scene with Ringo and Shoma is heartbreaking.

A couple of pages back, I wanted to see how this show will get more and more fucked up. It hasn't disappointed yet.

Well...the animation in the opening sequence with Yuri's car was gorgeous.

Not really sure what to think of the ending scene.

Apparently some people thought so. Karma or something.

I appreciate the irony, but this is bordering on creepy. Masako has to come and save her soon :/

What about Tabuki as the savior?

He might know about Yuri, and probably would not approve of what she's doing.

Ringo's mother mentions to Tabuki that Ringo is off with Yuri at a spa, Tabuki knows what that means, and rushes out there?

It's more likely to be Masako though, considering that she's already hunting for the other half of the diary.

I'd say Masako is mostly likely, if Ringo gets saved at all

Now I wonder if Yuri was serious about her marriage with Tabuki just being for show. There's a theory floating around that Tabuki's just covering up for Yuri's "flaws".

Well, they were both childhood friends who were devoted to Momoka, it may just be a case of "no-one else could possibly understand". They may not be romantically in love, but they are friends.

...Now watch the next episode prove me completely wrong.

I was totally rooting for the theory that Yuri WAS Momoko. I guess that got thrown out the window.

I'm getting the feeling that Tabuki may be just as fucked up as Yuri is. Maybe he wants to see Momoko again just as badly as Yuri does and this was the plan they came up with. Since Ringo has seems to have given up on Project M, they had to take some extreme measures. I mean really, how does a guy not notice a high school stalker living under his house.

[up] I thought the same thing!

I bet you by the end of this series, we're going to see that everyone is fucked up.

It's going to be quite a surprise if everyone else doesn't turn out to be fucked up.

Also, guess what: the ending theme for Episode 13 is a cover. From ARB, no less, the same band which sung ROCK OVER JAPAN.

Heh. Also, does this ARB song sound familiar?

You know, they are apparently going to release an entire album of ARB covers by Triple H sometime in December.

I wonder if Ikuhara is using ARB songs in Penguindrum for any reason in particular, or if he is just using them because he likes them.

I wonder if Ikuhrara wanted to use the actual ARB songs, but couldn't get the rights or something.
