Panty & Stocking With Garterbelt - Review Update

Gainax©

Overview
At first glance this reminded me of Cartoon Cartoon. A friend of mine, Ty, mentioned that it was like Power Puff Girls, but in anime form. That was enough to get me interested in watching and reviewing the show.

Episode 1
This show really IS like the Power Puff Girls, but made for adults. It's so crazy that it's almost worth watching. I wouldn't recommend anyone under 17 to watch it though. It's pretty sexual, but not porn. I think it actually one ups South Park. Then again, I've only seen a few South Park episodes. The art style randomly changes when the transform into their angel forms to take out the evil spirit. It's almost disturbing, but I think that's because they're on stripper poles when they do their transformation. I did find it pretty funny though. It's really hard to judge this from just the first episodes, because it's so crazy.

Episode 2
Right, so there isn't really a concestent storyline, but there seems to be an overall plot. It's about two angels whore fight ghosts to earn heaven currency, but they haven't actually said what the currency is for yet. I do love the fact that whenver they defeat a ghost, the graphics change to real life clay graphics and they have the clay version of the ghost explode.

Episode 3
I'm pretty sure the show is becoming more adult related. This episode would never be shown on television here in the USA. I really don't know what else to say.

Wrap Up
The show is insanly random, adult themed, and yet funny in it's own immature way. I wouldn't recommend it unless you enjoy that kind of thing. I personally don't, but that's just me. I know a couple of people who enjoy the show, so I have to say that my final verdict will be... Watch the first episode and if you like it, keep going. If it's not your cup of tea, that's fine. I'll be reviewing the other new anime and hopefully one of them will be what you're looking for. I also learned that the coins are so Panty & Stocking can get back into heaven. I guess they were kicked out and if they collect enough coins, they can return.
