Gainax's new anime is about panties and stockings

"Well, either that or turn-of-the-century Chu-Bra."

DAMNIT! You thought of what I was going to say. I had that exact thought going through my head all the way through the article then you had to say it.

Pah.

Lol, like if Hanamari Kidiphile wasn't bad enough, they take this step into more bullshit anime. This is another milestone of how much the industry has sunk. I can't believe that even Gainax can't produce anything better than this bilge, so its clearly more lame pandering to the potential moe crowd.

I watch anime for a good tale, and seeing more crap like this is making want nothing to do with anime at all. Of all the many subjects to create a show about, they choose this shit. Never thought I'd ever say that, but there it is.

I admire the optimism of some, but I'm losing hope slowly.

I think Gainax is secretly reading my mind and knows what I'm into. Anime girls and stockings, it's win win situation.

Gainax? Panties and stocking? I think I will make a double down in my pants.

I hope you're all aware that the term specifically refers to waist-high tights and not thigh-high stockings. Because...

It's Gainax, more specifically a bunch of Gurren Lagann alumni. This could be an artistic re-tooling of K-On! X KissxSis set in the Showa period with five episodes of powering up between words named "THIS SHOW WILL NOT GET YOU LAID" and I'd still be excited for it.

Um...underwear in the early 1900's was not attractive.

And Wikipedia says that pantyhose didn't exist until the 1940s. What gives?

Gainax and stockings. That's all I needed to hear.

Panties... Now This is relevant to my Interests... YAY!

Well seeing that most of the Gurren Lagaan team is behind it I'm sure they can do the impossible with something about panties and stockings.

Gee-Man

As long as they don't make us watch the unwatchable, enjoy the unenjoyable...

But really, if the GL team is working on this, it can't be all bad. I was disappointed that Hanamaru Kindergarten didn't have an awesome mindfuck Gainax ending where everyone dies or leaves the town forever, so let's hope this one makes up for that.

Um. not sure what to say. Stockings = Good. Steampunk=More Good
does that make it two pluses or something? Cause they could cancel each other out and just make a joke of a series. :/

Yeah if those one guys do that one thing it'll be pretty cool story bro

Do the stockings combine and transform into a galaxy-sized pair of kneesocks? Because if so this is a guaranteed watch and a first-day DVD purchase.
