I found the anime just full of pointless dumb jokes that weren't even that funny at all and had two
annoying main characters with such stupid names! I'm just gonna leave it there.....

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.

This series from Studio Gainax does not look like your average anime in fact if it weren't for the fact that it is in Japanese viewers could be excused for thinking it was a western series. The series follows the escapades of two angels, named Panty and Stocking, who have been sent from heaven to eliminate ghosts in Daten City. These girls aren't your stereotypical angels however; Panty is a sex maniac and Stocking is addicted to sweet food. The first few episodes see them defeating various ghosts but half way through the series their Nemesis, two demons named Scanty and Kneesocks arrive, ironically these two may be demons but they are sticklers to obeying the rules. These two are great additions to the cast and help to improve an already great series.Each episode consists of two stories and while there were a few duds most stories were hilarious although those offended by frequent swearing, often in uncensored English; references to many bodily functions and promiscuous behaviour would be strongly advised to give this series a miss if you aren't bothered then check it out and expect plenty of laughs. While there are lots of sex references there is nothing that could be considered fan service due to the animation style; this does switch to a more traditional anime style for their sexy pole dancing transformation scenes but even these are very tame compared to many series.As the last episode ended with a cliff hanger and the words 'too be continued next season' it looks as if there may be more to come next year; I certainly hope so as thirteen episodes wasn't enough.At the time of writing this series can be watched in Japanese with English subtitles on Crunchyroll but I have read that it will be removed soon; hopefully this is an indication that somebody hopes to release in on DVD; If it gets an R2 PAL release I'd certainly consider buying it.

This show is ripe with innuendos and suggestive material inappropriate for children, but the animation is pretty entertaining and the variation between the how episodes choose to be raunchy and lewd is enough to make this a show worth watching with some friends - if you're not laughing with the show, you're laughing at the show. If their show turns into a formula for presenting their sex jokes I can see it growing stale, but for the time being the show manages to do something different with every 15 minute short... except the sex and swearing is consistent, that's the heart of the animation.Don't watch this if you're watching for a story though...
