| ... And then you grew up into "OMG HE ACCIDENTALLY SAW SCHOOLGIRL PANTIES AND GOT BEAT UP FOR IT.XDDDDDDDDD" humor? I hope not. |
 Old avatar and sig retired for now. |
| Fucking awesome, best anime of the season. |

Really, the show itself is somewhat funny, but somehow it's a hell lot more hilarious lurking in this thread. It's always hilarious watching people who can't accept that other people may not share the same opinion as yourself. On both sides, of course. Anyway, I'd say most of this is funnier than the average anime humor. It is usually just accidental boob touching and panty viewing and that is as dumb as humor really gets. Saying that, I enjoyed To Love-Ru. |
 |
| This was an interesting start cant wait to see more of this vulgar display of beauty for those on the fence WATCH IT! |
Siva said: It is either totally AWESOME or a completely SHITTY show. SHITSOME! |
| This show is inspired after The Ren and Stimpy show and Invader Zim. They even taked Gir from Zim as Chuck the dog. The art style looks almost like Dead Leaves. What I liked and didn't liked: the transformation, the dirty harry line, the car chase. The poo gags ( they tried too much to make sick humor but failed), the puke( c'mon purple puke?). Until now this show didn't maked me laugh so not sure wether I like it or not but I'll continue watching. |

Heart_of_Storm said: The animation of Powerpuff Girls combined with the 'humour' of Ren and Stimpy? my thoughts exactly it reminds me of all the good carton network shows that i grew up watching but i actually liked this show alot i just hope that it doesn't have the usual gainax ending W...T...F |
| What were they smoking when they came up with this, rainbows? I liked it though. |
S0S_Brigade said: I thought I would never drop an anime, but this show just may be an exception. I feel like I'm the only one who is not gay for Gainax. I utterly despise Gainax. I came into the show without that bias though. And I was let down. It's just not funny. I get it "PANTY IS A BIG FUCKING SLUT" I don't need the same joke over and over again. It's hard to tell the really, really thin line between homage and parody. I consider this a bit of a hybrid, but I'm not gonna waste my time on this show. It strikes me as Gainax trying to make more money off cheap, cheap figures. |
| Didn't expect to enjoy it at all, seeing as it looked like more Gainax hipster bullshit (See: TTGL). But I was pleasantly surprised in how much of a visual treat it is, regardless of it's tasteless nature. I think some of the criticism comes from the first half of the episode, which wasn't nearly as good as the second half. |

ArtRodriguez said: I get it "PANTY IS A BIG FUCKING SLUT" I don't need the same joke over and over again. Lol. That panty is such a slut for having a healthy libido. HUDeHurDehHur. Get it? Because women aren't supposed to enjoy sex? Sometimes I forget that the best comedy occurs in the real world. |
| The joke wouldn't have been anymore funny if it was a guy getting around. Zac B. over at AnimeNewsNetwork said it best: "This gag is secondary to what is clearly the showrunner's favorite joke, which is that Panty is a big ol’ slut who sleeps with every guy she comes across, speaks almost purely in thudding double entendres and even makes semen-drinking jokes. It's a laugh riot, especially after the 28th “Panty is a slut” joke in a row, let me tell you." |

It's a laugh riot, especially after the 28th “Panty is a slut” joke in a row, let me tell you." First of all, Zac=/=god's official messenger for anime and I really hate when people quote him as if his and other ANN reviewers' word is law. He gave Arakawa Under the Bridge and B Gata H Kei low scores and I loved each one. There's a lot with Zac I agree and disagree with and just because he writes reviews does not mean he speaks for the common consensus. Second of all, they say in the preview guide that it is a preview. That means that's just to give you an idea. It's more important that people see it for themselves. Third, we've seen a guy getting around everywhere. We rarely see it with girls. |
 |
| Did it occur to you guys that maybe the fact that she has sex is not the joke? Maybe, and just maybe, it's the thudding double entendres you mentioned, coupled with vulgarity on a level that is somewhat shocking in a culture where this is not expected of women, much less angels? That's just me though. Maybe I completely missed the point. |
| Dude, that's the first time I've ever quoted someone from ANN and all I said was he put it best. I disagreed with his opinion on B Gata H Kei as well, he just happened to say it much better than I could have. Did you read my earlier post? I stopped at about the 18 minute mark. A harem is different from this. Panty is a part of a gag where it's supposed to be funny that she sleeps around. That's a pretty rare gag amongst male protagonists in anime. Humor is a subjective thing, Gangler. If I have to try to decipher a comedian's intentions when hearing a joke, chances are it's not funny to me. I enjoy toilet humor as well (I love Borat and Detroit Metal City), but this one just flat out blew chunks to me. |

That's just me though. Maybe I completely missed the point. No, you're right, the double entendres pretty much is the joke. I still thought it was funny.

Well, I'm sorry but I see it a lot (specifically Zac's reviews) and it just annoyed me to see it again. |

Nyron said: btw everyone should check out my review. It's not hard to find, considering it's #1 and will remain as such until the end of eternity *reads review* This right here is what is commonly referred to as an "orgasm of excellence" Interesting choice of words, but I clicked Helpful as I mainly agree with it. |

I enjoy toilet humor as well (I love Borat and Detroit Metal City), but this one just flat out blew chunks to me. Fair enough. You've probably already heard this but the second half of the show was much better. If I'm being honest the humor wasn't my cup of tea either. It's been my opinion for a while that the gurren lagann teams humor is good enough to be sprinkled throughout high octane adventures but should never be the meat of the product. I was originally just poking fun at the notion that panty is a slut. Thus far she's only had sex with single adults under the proper consensual understanding. That's not slutty, just sexy and a little bit empowered. It's not even as if she's overly promiscuous. If we compare it to their previous works she may very well be the most modestly dressed female they have ever designed. |
Avarice said: With the animation style, potty dialogue, over-the-top action and rather exaggerated attributes of the characters, this was like, a huge middle finger to the otaku-pandering moe anime that has been all the rage the past couple of years. And I was smiling the entire time I was watching this. I love you so much, GAINAX. this. |

Nyron said: Your review lost me at the "Rainbow is the best show of the year" part, Rainbow is fucking awful and artificially deep. Sora no Otoshimono is a fucking masterpiece compared to it and a solid 8 all on its own. On the other hand, apparently the asshats over at ANN think it's a generic harem fanservice otaku anime, so what do I know.btw everyone should check out my review. It's not hard to find, considering it's #1 and will remain as such until the end of eternity I don't understand why people think this show is about sex humour either Gangler. Panty has sex with lots of men but look past the surface and see what the real issue is here, ffs. Also, I'm deep and my opinion is the only opinion that counts. |

Frosti said: They even taked Gir from Zim as Chuck the dog. I am so glad I'm not the only one who noticed this. |
| My first novel, Kardia has been published! Click here to read! |
| Everyone noticed this immediately. Also, after a while, I am kind of disappointed in this Chuck, it does Gir no justice. Gir is awesome and worthy of his fanbase. Chuck is just an annoying character used for punching bag comic relief for the protagonists. |
Old avatar and sig retired for now. |
| Quintessence of awesomeness. Bravo, Gainax! |
...and it was Tim Leary. And god help us, we smoked him... (c) |
| Well, I am certainly pleased that Gainax apparently loves Ren and Stimpy. |

Relenus said: This is actually my favorite reaction I've seen.Well, I am certainly pleased that Gainax apparently loves Ren and Stimpy. |
| Well, I guess I'll be one of the few people who will say that this didn't do much for me with its first episode. Toilet humor is rarely ever funny and here, it definitely wasn't. Second half was better, but it didn't really make me feel; like I watched something awesome, just something different. I'll give it a try till episode 3, but if it doesn't grab me by then, I'll have one less show to watch this season. |

Speak for yourself. I found the humor entertaining - Maybe not hilarious, I never cried laughing or even laughed extensively at all but the humor wasn't the only thing there. The show was packed from start to finish and there was never a dull moment, I like that. It is definitely one of the more unique anime maybe even from just the style turning away from the usual moe/cute style. In other words, not for everyone. I imagine people who enjoy South Park would like this for some reason. |

| Lol wtf did I just watch? |

Nyron said: Actually, the story is the worst part and the lack of character development leads me to say it's artificially deep. We're meant to care for these guys but we never see them interacting, everything is pushed down our throats and we're meant to accept it as truth, because lol, Japan in the 1950s was so sad. Anyway, I'd rather not derail this thread so I'll stop there about Rainbow.kuroshiroi said: Nyron said: Your review lost me at the "Rainbow is the best show of the year" part, Rainbow is fucking awful and artificially deep.

It's not hard to find, considering it's #1 and will remain as such until the end of eternity there's nothing deep about Rainbow. it's philosophical or psychological, it's just a story. It's pretty lame if you think having graphic scenes makes an anime "artificially deep". Nyron said: That's why I mentioned it, there are some similarites between Sora no Otoshimono and P&S in that their wrapping is unusual and if people can't see past that, then they don't have business watching anime or anything, really. Judging something based on its cover is pretty fucking dumb. Like the people who label P&S simply as an ecchi show with toilet humour don't know what the fuck they're talking about. But I suspect we largely agree on that :)also maybe if sora presented itself as something decent it would get more respect, but everything about it makes it look awful. Don't blame ANN, blame jet panties and abominable character designs. Who knows, maybe they're right though. |

| Can't help it, but the only part that really entertained me was the transformation. Don't like the 'normal' design, don't like the stupidity, that isn't my type of humor. |
| Anime just got crazier. I don't know if I like it or hate it. |
| Super trashy fun. That was awesome and not. |
| Another anime that you'll either love or hate and, at this moment, I'm closer to hating it. |
| Loved it GAINAX gonna GAINAX |
| What's with this Fall season? Cool stuff seems to be coming out like all the time :D Anyway, I found it truly amusing and eccentric in a refreshing way. |
| im not sure if i like it or hate it. Its so stupid but kinda cool at the same time. I mean toilet as an enemy and and panties and socks that transforms into a gun and a sword? |
