| ABOUT TIME. This was so freaking awesome. Gainax = LOVE The pole scene was hot. And I am a girl. xD I really love the western pop-art style of this, the toilet humor was surprising funny~ This anime has a lot of potential. Let us hope it lives up to it c: |

Dilvish said: WHAT THE HELL IS THIS SHIT My thoughts exactly. I'm going to poke this show from time to time with a very, very long pole, just to check it out. If it gets better at some point, perhaps I'll watch more as I feel very wrong about dropping this show on the first episode. For now though, I don't want to waste my time with this. It shows exactly what is wrong with [a few] American cartoons. I will not post here or state my dislike further, this is all from me. Please ignore this post if you don't like it, everyone, and enjoy the show. |

| Best anime this year. |
| THIS ANIME IS FRICKING AWESOME !!! |
  |
| Awww, I'm kind of disappointed. I was hoping it'd be stylish and fun without everything I don't like about modern Western cartoons, but unfortunately, they added those in. :C The immature potty jokes, especially. Argh. Well, I'll still keep watching this. I like the art and the soundtrack and hopefully they'll tone down the crudeness enough so I can enjoy it more. |
Dilvish said: WHAT THE HELL IS THIS SHIT Something so EPICALLY AWESOME that I couldn't believe what I was reading or hearing that I had to watch it... TWICE. Freaking hilarious... 10/10 from me and this may be more interesting than Sora No Otoshiomo: Forte. --- Randy |
 |
| Yeah, toilet jokes were funny.....when I was 8. First episode was alright. The music/soundtrack is pretty awesome though. |
| I have no idea what or where to start my complaint .... This Anime remind me of The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy and a small mix of The Fairly OddParents..There is a cartoon is very similar to this but I just can't remember what is the name . DAmn!! I laugh so much that I can't freakin hear the audio anymore!!! KusoAnime.Oh man,This Anime is best watch while drinking beer |

| It's kinda like Genndy Tartakovsky raped Gainax and this was the illegitimate love child born out of it. It's interesting so far, but I dunno how long that's gonna last. Atleast they are doing some thing new. |
| It doesn't think, it doesn't feel, it doesn't laugh or cry..... All it does from dusk till dawn is make the soldiers die. |
| This is quite possibly the worst anime i have seen in a long time. We're talking about a show so bad that it makes me want to watch mitsudomoe instead. Speaking of mitsudomoe, i didn't think it was possible to have more childish jokes than that series but i guess they found a way asking every 9 year old out there for advice.... The art style is horrible too but i suppose it fits the writing, for 9 year olds. I guess this explains why the anime industry in japan is slowly dying. |
Naratchi said: I didn't expect this O_O me too.. Feels like im watching PPG. LOL |
| I. didn't. expect. that. this. will. be. AWESOME. ESPECIALLY THE TRANSFORMATION SCENE. |
| Not sure wether I like it or not but I'll continue watching. The train villain sound like Iwata Mitsuo. |
| . |
| lol. Its weird , its crazy , i like it so far <3 ! |
| I liked it, but was it was just too vulgar, crass, and disgusting. Failed to provide anything laugh-out-loud funny, unlike Abenobashi, FLCL, and Re: Cutey Honey. But alas I dig the randomness and style. Also epic transformation is epic! Wouldn't it have been more awesome if the anime had the same style as that tranformation sequence?? |
| So much crude humor in this anime! I never have seen this type of comedy in anime before, and I like it as of right now. We'll see how it goes as the show continues on. |

Dilvish said: WHAT THE HELL IS THIS SHIT Is what has been on my mind throughout the episode. |
    |
| Awesome first ep. I immensely enjoy the suffering of weeaboos when they don't get their dose of moeshit. |
| How bad is it that I'm enjoying this show as much as I am? |
 Old avatar and sig retired for now. |
| This was just... awesome. |

Orkel said: Awesome first ep. I immensely enjoy the suffering of weeaboos when they don't get their dose of moeshit. This Hahahah! I loved it. Loved the cartoony style, and the crude sense of humour. Definitely not for everybody, but hey, I'll be watching no doubt. |
cstle said: Wallachia said: Dilvish said: WHAT THE HELL IS THIS SHIT For now though, I don't want to waste my time with this. It shows exactly what is wrong with [a few] American cartoons. On the contrary, I feel it's everything that I like about American cartoons with the bad filtered out. Immature humor (in a good way) with a competent art style. This. I even find it interesting that the structure of the episode was very much like an American cartoon-30 sec. intro and two stand-alone 15 minute parts in one episode. I was intrigued by the animation style (my face was like *o* through the whole episode) but I definitely didn't expect to enjoy it as much as I did, crude humor and all. It's a pretty fun watch and I'll be following to see how much more insane this can get! |
| From all the weird stuff Gainax has made, this one takes the cake. Heck, even FLCL makes more sense than this. Still, I liked this first episode. Especially the sequence where the girls first used their weapons. |
| this is a show of pure genius. the style of art they use is perfect for the comedy/action this show brings. gainax delivers again. |
 |
| So... GAINAX x The Powerpuff Girls, right? As stupid as it sounds, this is fucking awesome. The most original, vulgar, caddish show I've seen in those last 2 or 3 seasons. Unique, I'd say. Though I'm not entirely sure, but I'd rather call it 'a cartoon' than 'an anime'. Anyway, I'd wager that haters gonna hate and this series will be underrated, but mark my words: this is definitely worth your time. Give it a shot! EDIT torrentsven said: remember when japan produced worthy anime? good times man but i guess this is the way it ends. And that's the first (oh, there's Rainbow too) anime in a while that is actually good and original and doesn't multiply schemes that have worn out already. It's a goddamn parody, man. Of both anime and western cartoons. |

Nagi- said: Moe is a subjective term used to describe your feelings towards a character. Hmm, not only. This term also refers to a character that is attractive due to its appearance or behaviour. However... Nagi- said: Orkel said: Orkel said: Awesome first ep. I immensely enjoy the suffering of weeaboos when they don't get their dose of moeshit. You're a fucking retard. There's a grain of truth in what Orkel said, this show is rather not for orthodox weeaboos for its parody content. |

| This was so psychotic. Animation was very, very good. It was more of 'amazing'. I guess is what is called bortherline of anime and cartoon. Experimental approach is always plus for me, unlike those who might hate whatever things that is 'different'.There was definitely feeling of one huge sarcasm towards Japan anime creativity as a whole. (Gainax: we are sick of u weabooo shits so we are going to maek moe characters not so moe, make fanservice not so fanservice and make anime not so anime'.) Just brilliant About humour, not too sure. I kinda felt a lot of thing was forced. Even though it might fall flat in the end, I will still watch it for my guilty pleasure and anti-japan animations and story. Something different will always either instant hate or love, I'm for latter one. |

| Seems alright, but this isn't my type of anime. Pretty funnyin general and it reminds of me other cartoons but...I dont like any of them. Still, it ain't my type of anime to watch. |
| Oh god, this was so fucking ridiculous. But I liked it. Also FLY AWAY NOW. FLY AWAY NOW. FLY AWAAAAAAY. |

| So K-On! is pandering Otaku trash. While Panty & Stocking is revolutionary forward anime? I don't get it. I like it. But I don't get it. |
Old avatar and sig retired for now. |
| i give them credit for doing something different but definitely not a show for the mainstream. |
 |
| I'm not sure what to think about this yet. I really hated the character designs and some of the art(transformation scene was pretty awesome though), and well the humor was....lets just say that I felt like I was watching Cartoon Network or some MTV series. And I'm not at all convinced that that's a good thing. Well, at least this anime is proof that Gainax has a lot of spare money it can afford to waste. |

helur said: I pretty much agree with this statement. I love the art style, tough, not to mention the art shift during the transformation sequence and the action in the second part was cool.I am seriously conflicted about how i feel. It was indeed... RyanSaotome said: Feels like a more mature/sexual version of Powerpuff Girls. For now i liked the intensity and the voice acting, surprisingly, and just being blown away since i had no idea what to expect . I Don't read summaries before I test new shows since it ruins what i am going to watch anyways. The whole shit gag of the first part was a turn off, and i am not sure i liked the speed segment either. Actually there is nothing that i particularly liked, except Stocking. =P The true test comes in the next few weeks: Can it retain interest with what it gives? Style is important but only goes so far. We will see. |

| I must say, Panty & Stocking is a nice break from Japan's really stale Ecchi Comedy industry. The whole thing practically relies on badly built harems, "accidental pervert" and really odd panty-schoolgirl situations and has been suffering for that from years. People go ape when something like Strike Witches comes out so it's really not surprising that people would do much of the same for Panty & Stocking. When practically every show in this genre looks and plays out almost exactly the same, something like this really is nice to have. |

TeenChibi said: Wouldn't it have been more awesome if the anime had the same style as that tranformation sequence?? No, because then it would just look like all the other anime out there (even if it was beautifully animated). Also, I don't think they could keep that kind of animation running through the whole series. It would be...too impossible without a killer budget. SamTheNayru said: FLY AWAY NOW. FLY AWAY NOW. FLY AWAAAAAAY. Man, that has been in my head all day |

| This was amazing. I loved the sentai style finishers! |

busterbeam said: "filler" != filler. Obviously I meant the show would simply consist of lots of mini-arcs where the formula is the same for each episode, bad guy appears, girls give chase, girls win. But whatever, not important.I'm pretty sure the entire show will be "filler" yes episodic = filler cowboy bebop was a filler show (no it wasn't) I wonder if they'll do a beach episode... |
| This show is so good it raped my brain. |
