Panty and Stocking gave me exactly what I expected (which was good) and nothing more. It’s an arthouse show through and through; I’ve always had something against arthouse shows because they don’t give me what I want from anime. It’s not to say I don’t appreciate them, because I think it’s wonderful to see creators being true to their vision, but I watch anime for endearing characters and stories that don’t have a presence in these shows. It’s actually rare for me to finish one unless something about it really grabs me—in this case, it was that PSG was an arthouse show by some of my favorite creators. I love GAINAX to death, and I love the Imaishi Hiroyuki brand of animation and directing, so there was plenty for me to enjoy here, even though I was tired of it all by the end. I doubt I’ll feel compelled to rewatch more than one or two of the shorts, nor the second season.

I wouldn't call it "arthouse", but it was an interesting experiment nevertheless.

It was interesting to see a japanese team make something inspired by western cartoons instead of the other way around. The hardcore weeaboos hated it, of course. But I quite enjoyed it. It's quite rare to see female characters in a comedy anime who are self-confident about their sexuality.

Heh. I'll even bet that Rei is your favourite Evangelion as well...

It was a bad show. Plain and simple. The protagonists were too heavily flawed for me to give a shit about anything that happened. Panty alone was enough to turn the show to complete shit. If they wanted to make a robot chicken tier comedy they should have gone all the way instead of pretending a massive slut and a future holder of diabetes 4 are "heroes".
