Hi there!

Hello!

 I'm sorry for the lack of updates even though I keep saying they're coming (I really do work on them but they always get lost for some weird reason or another -_-) Anyways I have 2 reviews planned for later that will be a change of pace. One game review, and one AMERICAN cartoon review (returning to my roots :p) They'll be here soon I promise.

That's all! Cya later~

P.S. I have no idea why I chose the Hello Kitty picture for this post...

"Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt" Episode 1 Review

Well after months of waiting, Gainax's newest anime is out...and I love it~ Built almost like it was made for Americans "Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt" is a charming, hilarious series that seems to have a lot of potential for awesome.

The first episode served as a quick introduction to the duo and what they do. They're both angels sent from heaven to defend the earth from ghosts. They also have to collect Heaven Coins to be allowed to stay on Earth. The plot may be simple and a bit cliche but it works and leaves things open for a lot of comedy.

Panty is a hot sex obsessed angel who loves the danger of fighting angels and Stocking is a sugar obessed gothic lolita with a fellow love for action. They both a very likeable and interesting, not to mention super hilarious. The only other 2 supporting characters introduced for far have been,Garterbelt who acts as a mentor to our heroines and Gir...I mean Chuck their zombie dog who they abuse a lot for a varying amount of humor.

The show doesn't try to pull any stops when it comes to vulgarity either, there's tons of cursing, giant turd monsters and sex on the episodes that came on today. It doesn't detract from the fun or anything but just a fair warning for those interested in the show.

The animation is great too, it looks like an adult version of "Hi Hi Puffy Ami Yumi" and it's really cute because of that. Don't get me wrong though, it's nothing special but it sets it apart from the general anime fair.

The only thing I really didn't like about the episode was the opening and ending. They just seem too boring and not quirky enough to set the mood of each episode up for a series like this. Not a major detractor though. The series' insert songs are amazing so far though.

The series just gives a sort of mood to it that's different than other shows...A taste of originality in this world of either hardcore shonen action or very ecchi anime. It's fast, quirky and really fun. I put this on the recommended list.

That's all for now!

Cya Later~
