Anime Relations: Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt, Panty & Stocking in Sanitarybox
This is the Four-hundredth-seventy-second week of using the "Perfect Anime Girl Sheet". Notice: This Blog may contain Unmarked Spoilers.

Welcome back everyone. If you haven't been paying attention we're going to talk about another angel for our traditional Angel blog.

: You and your dumb traditions. Though at least this one isn't as aggravating as the April one...

Fair and I apologize to people who have to sit through that. Still, to continue explaining what's happening we had to fight Dokuro and Zakuro again last week.

: "Fight" is a strong word. You just defeated a machine that they brought in a game of rock-paper-scissors.

I would still count that as a win, even if I cheated. Anyway we also discussed Panty last week.

: Yo. We're still around and I still can't *explictiving* swear. *Explicitive* the censors who are a bunch of *explictives*. I wish that they would just *explictive* themselves in the *explictive* with a rusty broom handle then *explictive* their *explictives* while *explictiving* *explictive*. Then *Explictive* their *explictives* *explictive* *explictive* with a ham sandwich.

: I think that was just bleeped out excessively.

Maybe, but I don't question the censors.

: At least you didn't reference that one character from your old comics.

Indeed, mostly because my readers wouldn't know about him. However, that's enough distractions. It's time to say that...



: I'm looking forward to hear what you have to say about me.

: Judging by my score I doubt you'd be much better.

Prepare to be surprised then.

Head
Hair: Stocking has really excellent hair, easily better than her older sister. Her hair seems to be black, but judging by certain light it's actually a really dark blue. It's a nice color, and the blue color is a lot more noticeable in her angel form. She also has pink streaks around her bangs and the end of her hair, and the interior of her hair is pink as well though that gives it a bit of a shell-like appearance. Stocking also has really good bangs, with a nearly perfect hime cut. In the more detailed angel form you do see some slight differences but it's still really good. The length is both a blessing and a curse; I do like how she has long hair but the fact that her hair reaches her knees or so does mean her would normally get covered. She does have a cute bow in back, which is blue so it matches her angel outfit and her namesake stockings. Overall she does quite well, with the color and hime cut helping out quite a bit (though I do find it unusual that the outside and inside of her hair are different colors). Oh, and she has some variety in that she's had her hair in a ponytail, a bun, and many varieties of hat or hairband.
Grade: A-

Eyes: Stocking's eyes are somewhat cool-looking. Due to her hime cut her eyes look a little straighter than Panty's eyes, and I like the eyelashes under her eyes as they go well with her gothloli outfits for a touch of gloom. Sadly her angel form makes her eyes cuter and thus tarame, which is unfortunate. Her eye color is a little hard to tell. In the pictures I've used for these blogs her eyes look blue, but there are also images I've seen with her having green hair. I mean neither are probably that impressive, but still. It's also possible that Stocking's eyes change color between her normal and angel forms, the former being blue while the latter is green. Stocking also wears glasses on occasion, though they're more sunglasses. Still, MAL has deemed it to be a good enough image that they use her in glasses for one of the MAL images (at least at the time I'm writing this). I wouldn't count that too much, but I do like the creative stylish look of her normal eyes.
Grade: B

Face: Stocking in general has a cuter face than her sister. Because she's plumper it makes her cheeks look a lot better, in a more curved fashion. Her long hair also works well with her face, and I do like her cute moments and gentle smile as seen in her angel form. Stocking is gloomy most of the time so seeing her smile is a nice touch of variety. Much like Panty Stocking has a small nose in her base form and a larger one in her angel form. She just has a cute face that I like.
Grade: B

*Panty lets out a huge sigh.*

: This is so BOR-ING!

: You just think it's boring because it's not about you. Can't you be patient for once in your life?

: Hey, I bet that you wouldn't have been that patient if Topaz didn't feed you cookies!

Girls girls! You two are sisters, so you should get along better!

: It's not my fault that there's nothing to do here! Namely handsome men, of course. I just want to have some *expictiving* FUN!

: Sorry about that. There's no fun allowed.

-here.

: What do you-Oh no... You aren't trying to imply.

Well, it is getting close to the holidays so I figured that he might need some cheering up.

: You pamper your friend far too much.

: What the *explictive* are you talking about?

Just that I sent some gifts over to a close friend...



: *Sigh* Like I said, you pamper him too much!

There's no such thing, as he deserves it for putting up with the blogs.

: Eh? He has something against us?

Probably not. It's just that he was expecting other people.

: What a... You know, let's just forget about it and get back to the *explictiving* blog...

Good plan!

Body
Build: Stocking is similar to her sister in that there's a big difference between her standard and angel forms. Her standard form is quite blocky like with Stocking, with stumpy forearms and legs. It's her angel form that's more appealing to me, as it's more anime-styled than her standard one. Stocking also shows off her ass in the music video, though it's a lot rarer for her to show off (she still gets a slight moment during the transformation). Since she removes her namesake stockings it's possible that she has some leg appeal, but I don't see too much out of the ordinary. Her nails are painted blue, including her toenails (though they aren't shown as much as her hands and I'm pretty neutral to her feet in general). She is definitely plumper than Panty, which I do enjoy. Though there does get to be a point where she becomes so fat that she becomes a gigantic ball (it's due to a evil plot by a ghost). As mentioned with Panty Stocking also has random numbers for MAL measurements that I'm not sure where the source came from. If curious Stocking is said to be 152 cm and weighs 43 kg. Her three sizes are 98/61/84, so it's good if those aren't her actual sizes as that's far too big of a discrepancy between bust and hips.
Grade: B

Chest: Speaking of Stocking's bust, we've approached that area. That said, while she's busty and it does get shown off I don't remember it being too obnoxious either. I also enjoy that she has some roundness to her chest, as opposed to Panty's triangle chest in base form. She also mentions that all the sweets she eats goes to her chest, but I think that's more to bother her sister than anything else. Much like her sister Stocking also shows her nipples in the manga, but they aren't the type I like. Overall Stocking does fairly well here, with some service and being the bustier sister but not having too many memorable scenes either.
Grade: B-

Clothes: Stocking does a lot better than her sister here, and a lot of that is due to the default outfit. Stocking wears great gothic lolita outfits, which go well with her long dark hair. She also has a bow on her back, right above her hips or so, and we of course can't forget about her namesake stockings. They're lovely thighhighs with blue and black stripes (though the stripes are blue and white in angel form, fitting her white dress instead of black). Speaking of her angel form, the dress is a one piece with a short if puffy skirt which is kinda unfortunate. She also has a few other similar outfits, including a pink and white gothloli outfit she wears out on a date. Like with Panty Stocking wears a lot of various outfits through the series. This includes a blazer uniform with necktie and short skirt, a sports festival outfit, a sailor school uniform, a hoodie, a lovely fancy dress, a sports bra bikini, and a rock band outfit among others. She also wears striped underwear, her panties being side-tied as well. Overall with the strong goth loli base it's not surprising Stocking does so well for me here.
Grade: B+

: SIGH!

*Panty sighs again, this time rudely picking her ear and flicking her excavations away.*

Something the matter?

: Hearing you drone on and on about how much "better" Stocking is than me is getting annoying. I really wish that something would happen!

: Why do people keep inviting trouble using that type of phrase?

: What do you mean "trouble"?

*Suddenly the closet door bursts open, and two angels fall out. The door falls to the floor.*

: FINALLY! We're free, and it felt like we had to wait a whole week to break out!

: Luckily these seem to be filled in advance.

: What's this? Two girls are coming out of the closet, Topaz. Ufufu.

: That's really weak and crude humor, Panty. Then again, considering who's writing this blog I'm not surprised...

Sadly most of my jokes are only funny to me. But what are you two doing here?

: They must still be trying to fight you, Topaz. Watch out for surprise attacks!

I'll keep my eyes peeled!

: Well, I suppose defending Topaz would be good for a break. Watch out, I'm going to GET you!

*Zakuro whispers in Dokuro's ear.*

: Um, does she mean in battle or in bed?/

: Considering who she is I'm not completely sure.

*The camera goes back to the heroes.*

: Pssst, do you mean in battle or you're going to *explictive* them?

: I haven't decided. Probably battle, as that way we'll ascend.

Good idea, and take those two angels with you when you go.

: HEY! Don't kick us out already! I want to hear the end of my blog.

Fair point. In that case, let's continue onward!

Mind
Personality: Stocking is a lot more level-headed than her older sister. She's also a bit more intelligent, but she also seems a little rude at times. She's calm and very serious about her job of ghost hunting (except during the time she's dating one, but that's for the next area). Stocking is also identified by her love of sweets, disliking spicy food and is a pretty big eater which is cute. Stocking is also pretty snarky, which is pretty nice as well. In general I like the more lowkey Stocking more than her sister, by quite a bit. Of course, we can't forget about her thighhighs/stockings which are her namesake weapons. I find her dual katanas to be cooler than Panty's dual-wielding guns, but that's just my personal taste. When using one weapon she seems to be left-handed, though I only know that through other people mentioning it. To add to her cute goth look Stocking is often carrying a stuffed cat named "Honekoneko", and the face on the cat often mirrors Stocking's own expressions. In general I tend to prefer the quieter type of girl like Stocking, though her appearance does help quite a bit. I probably should mention that she cuts Panty up in the last episode and has a twist where she's a demon, but since we have had no resolution people aren't sure if that's really Stocking, if she's being mind controlled, or any number of factors that could be in play. Stocking is voiced by Mariya Ise, who does a good job. She also does characters I don't know like Bonnie from the XY series or Urara from Yes Precure, though she's also done characters like Sen from Ben-To and Eco the loli dragon from Dragonar. Overall Stocking is more my type of girl, but she's still not quite as great as I probably remember either.
Grade: B-

Libido: Stocking is not like her sister in this regard, but does have some factors that hurt her here. Instead of being sex-crazed like Panty she's not really interested in most men. She mocks her sister's obsession with sex and seems to dislike it too. That said she does fall in love with a ghost during one episode. And when she falls, she fell DEEP. The problem is, besides Stocking being an angel and the guy being a ghost, is that he was a complete loser. He looked awful and treated Stocking really poorly. He did end up falling for her, but the whole incident made Stocking seem like the type who falls for the wrong type of men. One good thing is that she's loyal though, not cheating on someone if she truly loves them. It's possible that she has a masochistic side, which is also unfortunate, but I don't remember that being much of a problem while actually watching it. Finally, in the manga's Western chapter Stocking calls herself the best "lay" in town and has fun with Panty as mentioned last week.
Grade: C+

Age: Stocking is in the same boat as her sister; I don't know how old they actually are. They're angels so they're technically ageless, but they don't seem too out of place in high school either. She is younger than Panty, but probably not enough to affect her score at all. In essence, I'll give her the same score her as I did Panty as official ages could be useful.
Grade: B

Total Grades: 71
Average score: 7.8
Final Grade: B

And with that the blog is completed.

: Good job, Topaz. Er, I think... Didn't I do better with your rough draft?

Being fair that was created many years ago. I've changed and matured since then.

: I'm not to sure about that...

At least as far as the blog scoring goes.

: I suppose that's true.

: GOD! Stop gabbing about boring things! When are we going to be able to battle?

Calm down, Panty. Don't get your-mmph-panties in a bundle!

: *sigh* Really, Topaz. You stooped THAT low for comedy?

You should know that I'd stoop much lower, Ririchiyo.

: The blond floozy is right. It's time for us to battle!

*Dokuro gets out Excalibolg, her spiked club, while Zakuro gets out her towel.*

: Oh no, Panty! We'd better watch out! She'll whip us with a wet towel or something!

: I wouldn't mock our weapons too much. After all, what do YOU two have?

: I'm glad that you asked...


*Panty and Stocking transform*


: Was the video really necessary, Topaz?

Well, I do transformation videos for all the PreCures and presumably with other magical girls. Even if they're not the orthodox kind Panty and Stocking still sorta count.

: Did you two get a little bit taller through that? No matter, I'll destroy you all the same!

*Dokuro leaps at the group, but the crowd scatters. Her club destroys Topaz's couch.*

Oh no! My couch! It's ruined now!

: Better than your life, at least!

I suppose...

: So that's how you want to play. Don't worry, I can dance!

*Panty shoots many bullets at Dokuro, but Zakuro leaps in front of her and deflects the bullets away by spinning her towel. However, the bullets are reflected and shoot holes in Topaz's walls and windows.*

Aw man. You're still destroying everything!

: When you're battling in angelic ways you need to be prepared for some property damage and causalities.

: That's right. Now leave this to me!

*Stocking, wielding her swords, prepares to slash at Zakuro. Dokuro moves in the way and attacks, her club dropping down as Stocking uses her blades to block. The four continue their epic battle, each side fighting hard but neither gaining ground. Topaz is definitely losing out though, as his property gets shot, smashed, sliced, and toweled.*

Oh no! Not all my things and items!

: Stocking! Watch out!

*As Stocking was leaping back and forth she doesn't notice an armchair sitting in her path. Even though it had been there since the beginning. She crashes into it, breaking the chair apart and falling into the pieces.*

: OW! Who the *explictive* puts a CHAIR in the middle of the battlefield!

*Ririchiyo turns to Topaz.*

: I know. It's extremely annoying!

Hey, that's what happens in games. And you girls should have been paying more attention to the battle too! Or, better, not fought in my living room.

: But otherwise we'll never get our revenge on you!

Why are you that preoccupied with revenge! It's not like I did anything that bad to either of you two!

: Didn't you complain about us and make us villains?

Just because I talk poorly about you doesn't make you evil though! That's all your choice. Just look at Panty!

: Right! Just look at-hey wait a minute...

So there's no reason for you to try that hard to get revenge for such a one-sided rivalry!

: Huh, so put it that way if we take the upper road we're the true winners?

Exactly!

*Even though the battle had calmed down and Dokuro was beginning to understand, Panty still shoots her gun at the evil angel. Well, the evil-ER angel. She hits Dokuro's halo, cracking it slightly.*

: What was-Urrph... That for?

: I just wouldn't feel good with myself if I didn't actually defeat the angels. Plus they had dropped their guard.

That was still rude.

: And you didn't consider me rude already?

Fair point.

: Guwaaahhh... Stomach... Cramping... Must use restroom...

: Down the hall, on your right.

*Dokuro travels down the bathroom but it seems to be occupied. Her legs are crossed and she's hopping as she knocks.*

: I'm in here!

: So that is where she went after she locked us in the closet...

: Grrr! This is awful! It stinks in there so I don't want to use it! Come on, Zakuro-Gwaaahhh.... Let's get going before I ruin Topaz's living room even more!

My carpet thanks you.

*Dokuro and Zakuro rush out the destroyed door. Since the battle is effectively over Stocking and Panty return to their normal forms.*

: Whoa. She's really moving now.

: I guess so. But it would be really funny if she blasts off like the deer in Castle Crashers!

That's a bad joke, both for the subject matter and that I don't know if my readers would know that game.

: *Explictive*! Well, I suppose that it's about time for us to go as well...

: It was a pleasure to finally visit. Though I wouldn't want to live here. This place looks like a dump.

That's only because you... *Sigh* I guess I can't say too much. Thank you for saving us, and have a pleasant trip home.

*Panty and Stocking wave goodbye and get in their car and drive away. Panty further waves as they leave, though the camera doesn't show it.*

: Topaz, you don't have to disguise giving the finger as "waving".

Oh, so that's what she's doing. I thought it looked funny.

: So what are we going to do with this huge mess on our hands?

Hmmm.... I would love it if we could bring someone who can repair and clean things up with magic.

: Wait, you do know that next week is the meganekko-of-the-year blog, right?

Of course. I wouldn't forget something that major! And in case the readers are wondering, let's say that the mess would be too hard to clean up for a meganekko who talks to spirits. We might need her dual-persona teacher at this rate...

: Wait, I think I know who that is!

I should hope so! But stay tuned, readers-wait, is it "staying tuned" if you're reading this? Oh well, just join us next time for some meganekko fun!
