Yeah, it's a Japanese show pretending to be American. Having crudely drawn characters to be in the same area like South Park. But like South Park, it's one of those shows that's so offensive, you can't help but enjoy it.The makers of the show, their goal was to make it as gross and offensive as possible. I think they've succeeded.The amount of gross out gags in this show, involving poo, vomit, boogies, urine and other foul stuff would put anybody off. Episode 1 features a poo monster. I wonder did they get the idea from Dogma or Conker's Bad Fur Day?But those who have strong stomachs, you're welcome.For me the most disgusting episode is "Raiders of the Nasal Arc" which involves nose picking. Just be thankful, it's not in live action. There scene where everybody is picking their noses out of control, it looks like small meteorites coming out of their noses.The soundtrack is really amazing and the action scenes are fun to watch. My fave eps are "Les Diabolique", "Ghost: The Phantom of Daten City", "The Diet Syndrome", "The Stripping" and "Help! We Are Angels" My least fave episodes are "Vomiting Point" because it's so boring and "Chuck to the Future" where nothing happens at all.I'm only giving this an 8 because there are some things I don't like about it. It moves a tad too fast and you have to rewind to see what just happened. A lot of things happen all at once in this show. Some parts are just strange and happen out of no where, like in The Young Ones. In episode 13, Panty is at a farm, for some strange reason. It's never fully explained why she is there. Some episodes just end on a cliff hanger and is never explain how the characters survived to be in the next episode.I watched the English dub because I heard it was offensive. The writers I think did a great job on making it offensive. It only lasted one season, a second one was planned but the creator left due to creative differences. I don't think there will be a second season. But it's better to end it now than to have another season that's terrible. The Simpsons should've ended years ago. Less is more.I loved it. If you like rude, gross cartoons, you'll probably love it too.

As my summary suggests, Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt (PSG from now on) is easily one of the most profanity- and sexual reference-laden shows I've ever seen. It is also easily one of the funniest (albeit crudely funny) shows I've ever had the pleasure to watch.PSG follows the story of Panty and Stocking, two foul-mouthed and short-tempered angels who were banished from heaven because of their behavior. They now reside on Earth, where they have to acquire enough Heaven Coins to buy their way back into heaven, which they obtain by killing ghosts that appear in the city they live in. Garterbelt is an almost equally foul-mouthed reverend who acts as the angels' guardian as well as messenger from whom Panty and Stocking receive their assignments.Sounds simple enough, but these two girls have pretty extreme fascinations that constantly distract them from their true goal. Panty makes it her personal goal to have sex with one thousand Earth men before returning to heaven, and Stocking eats anything containing sugar she can get her hands on. And when they are on task, they can transform their undergarments (for which each angel is named) into a weapon (Panty's panties turn into guns, Stocking's stockings turn into katanas). Yup.Believe you me, this show is as outlandish as it sounds and then some, and is equally as funny. Yes, most of the humor is crude, but it's also taken to an extant that, in my opinion, would nearly warrant an NC-17 rating for the entire series if it had included any actual nudity. As such, keep this as far away from children as possible but by all means enjoy at your leisure. Don't let the animation style fool you; this is anime, but GAINAX meant for it to resemble American cartoons. While it may look simple as first glance, the action segments in the series have some pretty awesome (and insane) animation, hardly a surprise considering this was animated by the same people that made Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann and Neon Genesis Evangelion.Anyone looking for adult animation need look no further than PSG. Every episode packs a wallop in the form of an outrageous plot as well as extremely raunchy humor including, but not limited to, pervasive sexual references and language. On that topic, I would have to recommend watching this in the English-dubbed version. Frankly, I found it a lot funnier in English, especially in how the lines are delivered and how the script writers really cut loose and managed to make it raunchier than the original Japanese version.AND it has an homage to Invader ZIM. What more could you ask for?! Watch it already!Review based on: Full viewing of Japanese and English dubbed series (13/13)

Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt is a unique, crude, show that aims to be obscene. The show does this by making perverted jokes every now and then, at first it's pretty funny, but they do this over and over again until it just got repetitive. They do this while making pop culture references and clichés, making really weird episodes. and there's not much story either. Well, there's some loose continuation, and later in the series they start introducing an actual villain, but again they just had to put in sex jokes and the like so it's hard to take the show seriously when it's actually trying to be serious for once.The characters, just like the show, are unique. Panty is the whore and Stocking is a Goth chick who likes sweets, they're both angels and they aren't really into fighting bad guys because they feel like it, they're actually being punished for their unacceptable behavior. because of the situation Panty and Stocking are in, you'd expect awesome fight scenes, well, sometimes the fights deliver, sometimes they don't. Other than that the animation is superb, it gives off a power puff girls vibe, sometimes they even change it up a bit, and the soundtrack is pretty good. Believe it or not, the show actually has a moral, it's something like to be chaotic and wild is to be free.The entire season 1 is only 13 episodes, and the jokes got tedious just when they introduced the main villain which is somewhere from 7-9. If you want something different, go ahead and watch this one, just don't expect to latch on to it.

This anime is a challenge to the senses, containing both disgusting and sublime imagery, and a synth-heavy pop dance soundtrack that will get you grooving despite yourself.The sensual transformation sequences and suggestive subject matter make it ideally suited for the 13-year old hormonal boy in all of us, and its nearly blasphemous depiction of angels and religious figures makes us feel a bit guilty for taking such pleasure in its racy, uninhibited nature.But to look at the surface would be to miss the core of what the show is really about. Instead of a solely sexual mind-trip, this anime takes traditional Japanese values and turns them on their head.The clues to this revelation are in the lyrics of the music the angels sing, and in the rivals they face.Anarchy seems to be the trait that the heavenly duo seem to endear, with an unabashed indulgence of their sexual and physical desires. Meanwhile, their demonic counterparts are all about rigid order. (Their costumes are often based upon the uniforms of the 3rd Reich).Traditional Japanese society tells people "the nail that sticks out gets hammered down" while this anime says, "be yourself, and screw the consequences" - it is making an appeal to the youth of Japan to grasp for freedom despite the consequences, reminding me of the kind of things that led to the cultural revolutions of the 60s in the US.Look deeper and you will see even more.And even if you don't want to be bothered with deep messages and subplots, you can unplug your brain and enjoy the random sexy adventures of two crazy angels having a good time.
