With the first release of the Strike Witches DVD in Japan, there's only one way to properly advertise this show: with as many panty shots as you can fit onto a cardboard advertisement. Each panel has a bit of information about the character, a chibi drawing of them, and then the all-necessary panty shot. The chartranks all the characters according to some recent popularity contests.

Some of the descriptions include lines like this:

Black tights are a work of art.
Aah, I wanted to tear them...
Black tights -- they are a microcosm.
Nothing in the whole world compares to the holy treasure of the black tights. They're strange beauty is enough to qualify them as a UNESCO World Heritage Site!

Japan, I don't know if I love you or hate you for this.
