Penguin's Memory: A Tale of Happiness is quite the oddity from '85. The animation style has a raw charm to it, almost hand-drawn, which gives it this nostalgic feel. The pacing is a bit slow, but it reflects the somber journey of Mike, our penguin soldier. It's not just about war; there's this underlying current of estrangement and searching for belonging after trauma. The voice performances are heartfelt, adding depth to the characters, especially as Mike navigates his feelings of isolation. The juxtaposition of a war story set in a penguin world is striking, and it makes for an unusual yet poignant viewing experience. It definitely stands out in the realm of animated dramas.
