Alright North America, your turn...

And another country announces Penguindrum. Good for Australia! Can only hope whoever has it in the US announces it relatively soon -- a bit of a stretch, but perhaps NYCC.

- Hi Siren Visual , in America Mawaru Penguindrum got picked up by Sentai Filmworiks for a dub release on dvd/bluray . Is the release date still for 2013 or will we be getting it sooner than that ? America is releasing Mawaru Penguindrum part 1 in December 2012 .


- Early 2013
- due to the contract arrangements that Sentai have in place with the Japanese licensor they have a 3 Month holdback on the English dub for the series.Therefore we cannot release until at least 3 Months after their release.So part 1 in December really means part 1 in April for us.

Penguindrum is coming in April.Another bunch of pre-order goodies and our own merchandise coming out as well.The first time the Japanese have allowed us to produce merchandise since I first started doing anime in 1994!!!!! Watch out for some original t-shirt designs along with other things.
