We’re taking December off, which means our next discussion is happening Sunday, January 22nd from 1-3. Weather permitting we’ll be in Clark Park near the chess tables, but will relocate or reschedule if necessary.

We’ll be reading “Life against Death: Fate, love and revolution in Mawaru Penguindrum“:

The wild ride Ikuhara takes the siblings for will showcase his own skepticism of big-R Revolutions and the Society they struggle against. Yet there is also hope – a hope that this unchanging world can be overcome, or at least survived, through revolutionizing our relationships with one another.

You can find the essay on The Anvil with cool screencaps or on the library with no screencaps. For extra credit, you’re encouraged to watch the show!
