Pretty good episode I must say. Mostly due to the second part making up for the first. As many of you mentioned it wasn't all that interesting. I would have to agree to be honest. The Chuck part was not only confusing, but irritiating as well. To put it simply, just stupid. Thank goodness for the music video part. Looking forward to the next! (Loved the Nirvana parody) (^.^)

So, why exactly can they get actual sex on the screen yet they can't say dick? Actually, I'm sure they've said every single unmentionable word already, most of them in English, and none of them merited a bleep. I am guessing they just wanted to add a bit of music censorship to make it that more realistic.

IIRC (someone correct me on this if I'm wrong), pretty much everything is allowed except for genitals.
"Tonight, I sit in the eye of the storm. As fire boils around me, I press forward, winds and lightning lashing my wings. I am no match for what I face. Yet I will not back down, and though fear may place it's stranglehold on my heart, courage will see me through. With tears in my eyes, I hit full throttle. My engines become an inferno, and my weapons light up, awaiting my command.

If I die tonight, I will do so fighting for everything I believe in."

Did they even censor "dick?" I'm assuming you're talking about the song. After "well he's got a big one," there's nothing really left to censor so I think that was supposed to be a joke censor.

A lot of people seem to be saying this episode was "Meh!" but, i think i was as awsome as every episode befor it dark/rude humor and dry wit exchanges between characters with parodies mixed in (im in the land of great-britania this is exactly the comedy the british as a people love but in an uncommon medium)

Music references Complete (I think)

... I think thats all of them correct me if any are wrong

Lyrics

. . . . . . again correct me if heard anything wrong.

but i have 2 question

1) "bangin' on heavens door" someone said this needs no explanation but, i need and explanation i think its got something to do with cowboy bebop but i haven't seen it.

and

2) does anybody know an english site where i will be able to buy this OST i know its out on the 29th (<- my new christmas) but all the sites i've found so far that have it listed are in japanese, i can't read japanese :'(

P.S everybody knows base guitar is cool but did anybody else get the erge to learn bass after seeing stocking play one?

Woodstock is a festival, it's directly linked to the Jimi Hendrix reference. First you see them at Woodstock then it shows them burning the guitar as a direct reference to Hendrix's guitar burning at Woodstock. Did I really have to explain that? Seemed like a fairly obvious and simple reference.

I know Woodstock is a festival... i was asking if it is a band or not... because i couldn't find shit on a band named Woodstock.

As for Jimmy Hendrix... I didn't know that 21:09 reference was Jimmy Hendrix... but i know about 21:13 with the burning guitar.

Instead of sounding like a douche-bag... couldn't you have just told me simply that both are the festival references linked to Jimmy?

And what about the other ones... can you confirm those?

Nice episode. Part A was really funny, Chuck stories was kinda decent (except part III) and the PV was amazing (and for a moment, i though they're gonna animate how Panty and Stocking ended as angels when the desert scene started)

My take on the "Chuck to the Future" sections was that they were an homage to Chuck Jones.

(And if you don't get the reference, you haven't watched enough 1940's and 50's Looney Toons cartoons...)

Another "we'll do whatever we want" episode from Gainax. Great episode, especially the music video.

I'm guessing, since it has been used multiple times now, that Panty and Stocking's full names are "Anarchy Panty" and "Anarchy Stocking" (the "Anarchy Sisters" if you will)?

10 episodes in, I never learn. I shouldn't eat food while watching this.

It felt like an episode of leftover stuff Gainax couldn't fit in earlier or later in the series (main focus on the plot again for the last 3 episodes perhaps?), all of it varying in quality. Music video was awesome, if P&S isn't on the anime relations of the Music Addicts club yet, I better go add it myself.

Woodstock was a festival, but it's 100% Hendix, because if you look at the headstock of the guitar, it seem's like an abomination of a Fender Stratocaster head, but REVERSE. And Jimi played a strat quite frequently, and now guess how.

Here the headstock for reference:


And here Jimmy playing:

Well, to me it seems like to be a Fender Jazz (don't ask me which one exactly though) just look at the Headstock (again xD). And to say which Fender bass it is, look at the PU's. Once it zooms in on stockings fingers you can see straight, or linear pickups as seen here.


And the Precision Bass Has a "parted" PU

That's how you can tell.

And above all, the Japs seem to LOVE Fender, just check out all the anime references.

I think Beck had a Telecaster, as did Legend of Black heaven (the rhthym player, lead and MC had a good 'ol Gibson Flying V)

Azu (K-ON!) plays a Fender Mustang

Mion (K-ON!) a Fender Jazz Bass (seen above)

And Yui a "Fender" Les Paul (just look at the headstock of the guitar she first time she sees her giutar at the store) <= I barely died from laughing as I saw that xD

And yes, I'm 100% sure, cause i own a Fender Jazz myself.

And BTW doesn't "PSG" remind you of something?
I'll give you a hint

Don' really want to explain what happen throughout the rest of the episode, the music video dominated the episode. I really want that OST NOW!

Overall: 3/5

You forgot the "HELP!" sign that appears before they started playing with the silhouettes of the characters mocking the Beatles "Help!" album.



Also, the shots around the Uk were in reference to the Clash or like Uk Punk scene in general I believe. I couldn't find a specific photo but there's a strong resemblance.

Nice one mate... i'll try and change my previous post with these new additions... but i'll put *confirm* like a few others because i'm not sure about them... i need more than one person telling me the same thing for me to believe. I guess The Clash is now in place.

Oh about that Help! thing.... i didn't bother putting that up... or more like... i didn't bother at first... then forgot to put it on.... i shall do so with the other changes i previously just mentioned.

Try and see if you can fit the other ones in as well if possible. Or clear out any other ones i've marked with ???. Thanks.

Loved the part with Brief.
Loved the first part with Chuck.
Second part with chuck was meh. I probably missed what they were going for.
Third rocked. It felt like they were making fun of everything that throws "What the fuck! THIS MAKES NO SENSE" moments in attempts to make their media form more "Deep".

The music video rocked. Highlight of the episode.
Loved the Lady Gaga, and the Beatles references.
I didn't get the TATU one until I saw it posted here...but that rocked.

I personally found the first part and the Chuck part to be the weakest so far; both were kind of meh storywise and the animation was quite poor in the first part. It was probably only just Chuck got some more screening time, it was simply too non-sensical for my taste, even by P&S standards.

The music video was effing amazing though. P & S as Gorillaz were awesome! =DD

So, they finaly assraped poor Brief... Chuck got a spot in the limelight and we got to see what (who) really goes on in Chuck's brain :D
As for the music video... Here we go (Watched Horriblesubs' 720p release, YMMV):
The song, Anarchy in the D-City should be after Sex Pistols' Anarchy In The UK.
Then at 18:07 "Banging at Heaven's Door" surely needs no explanation.
19;24 we see The King reincarnated and in two bodies at once :D
And right after that at 19:28 there's KISS.
19:34 could be U2 with the sunglasses and jet planes helicopters.
20:14-18 is not related to any band I am familiar with but HOT DAMN :D
21:04 is the Lady GaGa I assume, not familiar with that... Artist is safe to say, yes?
21:08 is the t.A.T.u one as mentioned above.
21:11 some Woodstock action!
21:12 is where I made the connection to Sex Pistols.
21:13&21:15 - no idea but they are sure to be references.
21:17 - definetly Gorillaz.
Then the cover flow starting from 21:19
Pink Floyd - The Division Bell
Unknown
Nirvana - Nevermind
And the last one seems familiar but I can't remember right now.
The end is once again similar to... well any decent punk band's live performance but my dibs are still on the Pistols.

Also, if you spotted any I missed or didn't recognize, by all means fill the gaps!

Crazy episode!

I'm gonna need a wiki to get all the references (plus what's above) though what people are saying is the Beatles with the sunglasses and helicopters is a parody of an Oasis video (It cant be beatles, they never had helicopters did they?)

After learning about Stockings odd sexual tastes, her saying she loved the free fall in the rectum makes me think she has a shit fetish now! And in the song, she sings about how nasty she is! Nay-sti!

References to Pink Floyd, King Crimson, The Velvet Underground, The Beatles, The Sex Pistols, Jimi Hendrix and Elvis Presley. Love it, just love it. Those Gainax guys are just showing their love for music they like and more.

Poor Brief. I do hope that before the end Panty at least gives him a good time once.
