Now I am not the type to write a review. Only because of this anime's unique and amazing(some say orgasmic) qualities I am even bothering to create this review.
Never have I seen anything this strange become something this amazing. It's like the ugly food that you never wanted to try, but once you've tried it you taste the sweet nectar of its sheer brilliance.
Now please enjoy.
Story:
Story is its weakest point, and that is a compliment. This anime isn't meant for the story yet the episodes keep you interested. You don't watch this anime to understand the twisted plotline. You watch it to enjoy the
...
roller coaster ride that is the twisted plotline. The laughs, the sexual jokes and ecchi, the action! There is so much well played mindless comedy its amazing. The ecchi is a lot more comedic than it usually is. It just works!
This anime is about two fallen angels, Panty and Stocking. To get back to heaven they must collect enough heaven coins. Now there's also the big mean bad boss and arch rivals and such. But you'll see that for yourself, i'm not gonna go into detail about that.They aqcuire these by killing ghosts.Guess what they use to kill the ghosts? Their panty and stockings! Wierd, i know. Now here's your basic episode.
Ghost appears--->ghost is killed.
doesn't seem to interesting does it? But you know what? Its gold, they make it work. The stuff that happens in between. The ride of that arrow between "appears" and "ghost" is one of the most enjoyable comedies I have EVER watched. I laughed every episode many times. I don't think i've laughed that much since school rumble.
The whole thing is a "wtf" show, and it works!
Only thing i didn't like was the ending, but hey when you watch it you'll understand. I'm not gonna spoil. If you do watch it and finish it please message me with your reaction. I flipped!!!
Art:
The art is very very western. Aside from a few scenes its like a lot of western cartoons. Remember power puff girls? Dexters lab? The art is A LOT like that. It's not bad at all! They make it work. And there are some very well made sequences that don't like like western cartoons, I would like to note that KEY supervised the animation. Yes those people who made the amazing clannad, angel beats, and so forth. You can tell which part they really helped in!!
Sound:.
MY favourite part of the show. Amazing amazing amazing. You don't even understand. You probably won't be able to appreciate how the sound and ESPECIALLY the music makes this show exponentially better. The music is amazing, (the OP is kinda Meh). Not just the ED or OP, but the background music is amazing. You don't even notice it and you find yourself humming the tune or hearing it your head! I had to download so much music because of this anime.
Characters:
I love the characters, theres very few shows where i don;t hate any characters and this is one of them. They all serve their purposes and are very very funny. You know that feeling when you want a character off the freaking screen? Ya, you won't get that here.
Now i could tell you what the characters are like, or you can go look at the character pages yourself. lol
Enjoyment:
This anime is so unique. It combines american styles with anime styles. It makes a near perfect hybrid. I actually didn't want to watch this, but I'm glad i did. Remember that food analogy i made up there? think about it. Don't judge a book by its cover.
The first episode was not too amazing, watch 2 or 3 eps. If you don't like it then. You won't like it at all.
Now go forth, watch this anime, love the ride, maybe hate the ending idk. You'll have to see for yourself. And don't forget, tell em your reaction for the ending. I would love to hear it.
