Ugly Things Cannot Be Loved: Penguindrum and the dilemma of Yuri
Tumblr media
Content Warning: depictions of homophobia (condemned by the text); child sexual abuse; terrorism; poverty; cults.
Spoilers: Detailed discussion of all of Penguindrum.
Penguindrum is a challenging show, in all senses of the word. In it, Takakura Shoma, Kanba, and Himari, whose parents committed a terrorist attack out of economic desperation, confront others whose lives have been touched by systematic oppression over something called the Penguindrum, which they believe can magically transform their lives. Through these stories of survivors of abuse, child homelessness, and a terroristic cult fighting for the Penguindrum, Penguindrum indicts how society abandons the most vulnerable. In spite of this, Penguindrum is hopeful about our ability to heal from trauma together; most of its characters end the story having grown in some way, letting go of unhealthy attachments–Masako lets go of her attachment to capitalism, Shoma lets go of the guilt he feels about his parents’ actions. Most powerfully, Himari, the adoptive daughter of those same parents, fully accepts her past of homelessness and illness and embraces her adoptive family. At the climax of the show, Himari pulls her brother Kanba from the brink of replicating their parents’ act of terrorism, breaking the cycle of trauma.
This is not the case with Yuri, a Takarazuka star who suffered violent abuse at the hands of her father until she was rescued by her first love Momoka and the Penguindrum. In one of the most disturbing scenes of the show, Yuri, a closeted lesbian, graphically drugs and rapes Ringo, Momoka’s little sister, and then shows little-to-no remorse over the act. Ringo, on the other hand, seems to barely register the event, with her story moving on as if it had never happened. In the penultimate episode, the two meet, but only for Yuri to give Ringo her sister’s diary, without any acknowledgement of the horrific violence she inflicted. If it is a sign of remorse, it is wildly inadequate. Her act of violence against Ringo is left unresolved.
Yuri’s assault of Ringo is emblematic of how the tensions and arguable flaws in Penguindrum point to larger tensions and unresolved questions in our movements for transformative justice, abolition, and queer liberation. The struggle, if not impossibility, of finding true healing in the aftermath of trauma when the injustice that produced it has not ended is the tension that animates the show, and, I think, the work of organizing for justice.

Being completely honest, as much as I enjoyed the buddy comedy duo of Ringo and Shouma in the first half of the series, when others would claim they were obviously in love with on another, it always felt a bit forced, as more time was dedicated to shenanigans and some growing understanding, than like other romantic signifiers
But their relationship really started to hit in the second half even though you could argue they do less together. In comparison to her destiny plots, the most Ringo can do is lend an ear to whatever troubles Shouma is going through, but her quiet refusal to run away is probably one of the most impactful choices she can make
A key component of trauma, is how isolating it can be, there's often this fear of tainting others or them pulling away once they see the full extent of it. And especially around subjects of grief and loss, often even helpful loved ones will be ill equipped to "fix" the situation.
So Ringo doesn't try to make things better, but she stays besides Shouma as a witness, another pair of shoulders to bear the pain. It reminds me of the Death Cab for Cutie song, What Sarah Said.
Love is watching someone die
So who's gonna watch you die?
