Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt

Click to view video.


It's a new anime from Gainax, done in pseudo-American style (think Powerpuff Girls, only sluttier). One episode has been released as of now. It's probably the weirdest thing to come out of the company since FLCL (and that's saying something).

It's also quite possibly the best thing ever.

^ A lot of people have noticed that, apparently, including Mr. Vasquez.

It's really pretty amusing that the Japanese would do a style like this, when all of America is busy copying Japan.

Episode 3

I thought Garterbelt was going to be the "straight-man" to P&S. Guess I was dead wrong. Oh, so wrong.

I kinda feel bad for those sperm ghosts.

I like the ending to the show, so I will post it.

Kind of a meh episode action wise, but a lot more humor.

I want another episode 1 part 2.

Just watched the first episode. That was all kinds of awesome. There's multiple times where it was awesome; the henshin scene, the hair flip on the freeway, their expression when the train appears, "Peni Station", etc.

Downloading the rest...

Episode 5: ...huh, that second part was really boring! It was intentionally so but nothing really...paid off. I hope next week is better.

Episode 6: HELL YEAH THIS IS AWESOME!
