Seven Seas Licenses Penguindrum Novels
(LOS ANGELES, October 23, 2019) – Seven Seas Entertainment is pleased to announce the license acquisition of PENGUINDRUM (Light Novel) by Kunihiko Ikuhara and Kei Takahashi, the novels for the supernatural anime by the acclaimed director of Revolutionary Girl Utena and Sarazanmai!
Twins Kanba and Shoma live with their terminally ill little sister, Himari. One day, they visit the aquarium, a place full of warm memories for Himari, but she suddenly falls ill—and dies! At that very moment, a voice cries out, “Survival Tactic!” and Himari, wearing a penguin hat, comes back to life...?! After licensing the Penguindrum manga series earlier this year, Seven Seas is excited to bring the fans another iteration of this intriguing series.
Seven Seas will publish the novel series PENGUINDRUM (Light Novel) for the first time in North America in print and on digital platforms in single volume editions. Volume 1 will be released on May 19, 2020 for $13.99 USA / $17.99 CAN.
