----------------------------------------
Pani Poni has come BACK!

The ultra high speed comedy was so hilarious. And Lots of Fan Services!
The references are:
Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei (Nonaka Ai as Ann-chan!?)
Hidamari Sketch
Negima!?
Nice boat.
Touhou Yukkuri
Gundam 00
Monster Hunter
Gyakuten Saiban
Heat
Strike Witches (Becky in Pantsless costume was so adorable)
Nausica
Seto no Hanayome
Natsume Yuujinchou Nyanko Sensei
JoJo
Gurren Lagan
Toki wo Kakeru Shoujo
Macross Frontier (Watanuki as Sheryl!)
Idol Master (Ichijo as Haruka)
etc. etc.

The animation of the battle PaniPoni X vs Yukkuri was unnecessarily well done. Great DVD-BOX. $220 wasn't expensive at all.

Awesome return of PPD. I just hope SHAFT won't stop just on it and eventually we'll get another series.

Zetsubousensei blew me away, but now PPD will have to be re-instantiated as my favourite. It just has the best suspense-during-wackyness.

The freaky Zetsubou drawing makes a comeback. xD
When the credits rolled, I thought they would have done something with Cardcaptors...

It was a fun episode; makes me miss PPD a lot.

I liked the drawings that appeared while the aliens were talking. What is it reference to, I wonder?
The amount of references kinda annoyed me, though. I think it's just because I haven't been watching PPD for a while.
But the episode was as good as the better ones from the series. Ichijou just exploses with randomness.

The costume is a parody of a Japanese TV program "8ji Dayo! Zeiin Shuugou (1969-1985)"

The pantsu is obviously Strike Witches reference.

Wow. I've forgotten how Pani Poni Dash was like. It's been what? Almost 4 years now? Still, it's nice to hear Orisaka Fumiko and Satsuki Yukino again (with the respective fan service). lol. It's also interesting to hear these secondary roles after most of their seiryu went on after this show to gain fame in their own respective rights come back to voice again.

They totally overdid the references, though I caught about 75% of them at least, along with some random (More than most of the series) fanservice, a bit higher quality drawing, and some sort of story just for the OVA makes a 9 in my book, maybe even a 10 if I feel like thinking more.


Lol Yukkuri.

If any show deserves a second season, it's this one.

Now I finally got to see this too. Hilarious, just as the show itself. As the anouncer of Jack Blacks Dream in the Tenacious D film would have said: "I fucking love this show."

Give us a second season now.

Watched this right after PPD itself. If this was a regular episode, it would be the best.

Should I rate it 9?
