Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt

The "Anarchy Sisters," Panty and Stocking, have been kicked out of Heaven for, to put it mildly, misbehaving. Led by a priest named Garterbelt, these angels must buy their way back by exterminating ghosts in Daten City. But this task requires unconventional weapons for these unorthodox angels—they transform their lingerie into weapons to dispatch the spirits. Unfortunately, neither of them take their duties seriously, as they rather spend their time in pursuit of other "hobbies": Panty prefers to sleep with anything that walks, and Stocking favors stuffing her face with sweets than hunting ghosts.

Follow these two unruly angels as they battle ghosts, an overflow of bodily fluids, and their own tendency to get side-tracked in Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt.

Great show with great characters. I absolutely love the premise of an anime parodying raunchy and mature north american cartoons. It's like an inverse of Avatar or Teen Titans. Supposedly, contrary to popular belief, it wasn't inspired by South Park, but rather Drawn Together of all cartoons. Definately a breath of fresh air compared to the regular hyper-sexual/wildly innaproperate anime where they pull the same tropes over and over for the sake of fanservice. Also, while the designs are simplistic, the show has some of the best action sequences I have ever seen in an anime. The nonsensical plots of each episodes too are another ... breather from all thoes episodic anime that somehow still have an overarching plot for no reason. Sure there's a sub-plot, but it's like Scooby Doo where it's just a setup for an episode's shenanigans.

"Fun", I think is the best definition for this series, it is fun. Panty and stocking, as seen in the illustrations and covers, have a design reminiscent of the Western cartoon style, despite this, it still has Japanese elements in addition to the language spoken by the characters.

The animation isn't bad, but you feel like they saved a lot, especially in some episodes that border on being a recap.

Regarding the story, it doesn't necessarily have a sequel, but I think that only one episode takes place in parallel to the true story and it is clear that its ending is not continued, as if ... it were something non-canonical.

About the humor: you can smile, I didn't laugh, just a few weak smiles, not that this indicates that the humor is bad, just don't expect too many things.

The main characters, I'm talking about the panty stocking and garterbeld trio, are indeed very original, both in design and personality. Without a shadow of a doubt, the protagonists escape the ideal of "anime girls" by being real bitches. So, if you want to have new waifus, know that you can only expect them as ideas for NTR. A particular opinion is that Panty shines more than stocking, although I believe that the stocking design is even more acclaimed, and it really is a beautiful design, panty seems to carry more of the nickname of protagonist, and is even more prominent in the "transformations ". Garterberld is a character that I particularly liked, being funny and being a rare black character in anime. Brief, despite having liked him, is a character without much salt and passive in everything, but I like him (a little). Chuck is also an interesting character, being a weird immortal dog that was actually cool. I also dedicate my appreciation to the demon sisters, who were cool, sensual characters with personality. Zipper, the demon sister's animal is also cool, but Chuck alone. The final villain also proved to be interesting.

What about the ending? Well, without it being new to many, I already knew what would happen before watching the anime. Without a doubt, it sounds like a poorly finished ending, which calls for a second season, which was said to be the case, but they didn't (I don't know if the new series for 2025 will be a continuation or a remake, but I hope there will be new things or make space for them to continue later). Let's say that this series is intended to be a "horny and hard-on" series but the ending is boring. Although due to the style of the series, great outcomes are not expected.

Regarding the songs, they are good, particularly I think the opening (both animation and music) is a little weak, but ok. The ending song seemed better to me, I liked it. The other songs too, nothing too remarkable in my opinion, but they are good. Many people liked the songs.

Well, there is also an OVA of the series, which, in my opinion, was the most "trash" thing I've ever seen in an anime, but if you like more absurd and poor quality humor, you might like it.

Now making a brief summary, I think it's worth watching, panty sticking is undoubtedly iconic, but don't expect too much from the series, it's far from being a magnificent work, but of course, we think there is a lot of subjectivity in tastes.

"You're going to be my 1000th"
---Panty

Yeah that's about as attractive as the rest of the series.

The best way to think of Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt is to imagine the powerpuff girls doing porn.

First up, it fails as a comedy. I mean it fails really hard. The jokes are all desperately stupid. They are on the level of somebody taking a plate s**t and smacking themselves in the face with it over and over again, and cackling everytime. It's not funny to begin with and it gets old fast.

Next up ? There is no next up. There's no story no character ... development. It doesn't try so there's nothing to evaluate.

The Art: Well it's kind of interesting and different. The best way to think of it would be chibi Stripperella with brief moments of more suggestive material. The creators said they were trying to parody American style animation, but lets face we had already parodied our own animation in exactly the same way long before. This sort of thing had been the Cartoon Network late night lineup forever.

Music: About the one good spot of the animation. If you really want to enjoy this animation get the soundtrack albums and watch them with a visualizer on your music player. Something trippy with girls dancing would perfect as a background.

TL:DR bad anime, get the soundtrack album if you want to enjoy it.
