Creator\/director Kunihiko Ikuhara&#8217;s dense, complex, and confusing 24-episode drama Mawaru Penguindrum will be released on domestic DVD &#038; BD this December. Sentai&#8217;s initial acquisition of Tegami Bachi ~ Letter Bee includes only the 25-episode first TV series. Crunchyroll simulcast the series. The show will be released on domestic DVD this December. Manga Entertainment previously distributed the Jubei Ninpucho movie under the title &#8220;Ninja Scroll.&#8221;  Sentai will re-release the film on DVD &#038; BD this December.<\/p>\n<p><i>Quite happy to see a domestic distributor willing to take a big risk on such a polarizing show as Penguindrum. It&#8217;s quite a brilliant show, but it&#8217;s too convoluted for most viewers to enjoy.<\/i><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.animenewsnetwork.com\/news\/2012-09-01\/sentai-filmworks-adds-penguindrum-ninja-scroll-film-letter-bee\" target=\"_blank\">Anime News Network<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sentai Filmworks has announced its acquisition of the 2011 Mawaru Penguindrum &#038; 2009 Tegami Bachi television series and the 1993 Jubei Ninpucho motion picture.
