^ I'm hoping to find a place that'll allow me to download the episodes, since my regular place only seems to have the first one working properly.

Why do you say that?  Look at Hetalia.  FUNimation picked it up in January; now it's on the shelves.  It'll most likely be out by KCon '11.

Yes, but Hetalia was based on a manga that's been running since 2006, has a worldwide fanbase and is insanely popular. Panty and Stocking just came out, isn't based on any pre existing material, hasn't even finished it's first season yet, and is at most a niche title which hasn't quite found a huge fanbase yet.
I'd be surprised with it gets dubbed anytime soon.

Well for one their target demographics are completely different.

APH demo is preteen-teens, mostly girls. This demo has a huge disposable income, thus a studio like Funimation, would want to turn the product around quickly to encompass the fandom at it's hieght.

Whereas P&Sw/GB has a much more niche fandom at the moment. Also it's Demo appears to be mostly made up of college students and post college adults. A demographic that does not have the same type of disposable income to throw away on anime with. These people are also the most likely to pirate.

Just wondering: Which episode would you guys recommend to someone as a good episode to hook them?

The one episode I saw left me kinda "Meh," but I did like the dark humor and would want to try again.

Episodes 2 and 4 are great. 6 is where we start to see some resemblance of a plot and 7 well you'll just have to see.

At first I thought it was going to be dumb (Jameson told me about it before I saw it) but I actually liked it haha.
The Chuck episodes were hilarious simply because they were each based on a different director and it was so obvious.

I LOVED the music video.

Not watching it myself, I wantred to chime in that since it's Gainax so that pretty much settles the question that it *is* anime, as far as how AMV contests would define anime vs. non-Japanese origin.

I tend to personally prefer other anime, such as drippingly-detailed sceneries:



Major PWNage over Sponge Bob and Invader Zim, ne?

The fact that you used "pwnage" and "ne" kind of ruins your point there, and you can't say that all West animation isn't that detailed. Look at Avatar (the TV series) and tell me it doesn't have "drippingly-detailed sceneries" that are better than that.

Not to mention you're coming in and saying P&S isn't good animation when you haven't even seen it yourself.

^^ Moribito is seriously nifty, no doubt. (^_^) If you liked that one, you might also enjoy Ghost Hound and Hell Girl - both pay a lot of loving attention to visuals, though Hell Girl gets a little fanservicey by the end.

*realizes he's going off on a tangent*

Er, sorry about that. So yeah, Panty and Stocking, the subject... I gather that Gainax pulled another "Where the ****ity ****ing **** did that ****ified **** **** ending come from?"

Panty and Stocking has beautiful animation. Whenever I watch it I'm in awe on how smooth amazing it is.

anyway just saw the last episode yesterday. And Im not quite sure what happened XD
all I know is that Stocking blew my mind.

Where did I say that "all West animation isn't that detailed" - ( are you confusing what I wrote with someone else's post?) My first point (that PnSnGB *is* anime) is to let people know that despite its unusual style, it would 'count' as anime for stuff like the AMV contest. That should be received as a *positive* message on this thread.

I then added that the style seemed to resemble some other shows that I personally find not to my preference, and that I like some other stuff a LOT better, and gave one particular reason (detail.)

Quote
Not to mention you're coming in and saying P&S isn't good animation when you haven't even seen it yourself.
Didn't write that either. Nevertheless, there is a lot which can be surmised from still images even without watching them in motion. Again, the first and most important point was that "Yes this is anime," even though personally I may not find it as visually satisfying as some other works.
I was scrupulous in using the word personally in my previous post.

Also glad people enjoyed an entertaining, whacky ending...

You know, fleur; I don't think he said anything that warranted your reaction.  Couldn't you have tried to have been civil about it?  The mods have been cracking down on the degrading talk a lot lately (which is nice), so I'd like to think that everyone would be trying to speak kindly to each other.  I kinda like you, fleur, so I hope that you'll take these words sincerely, especially from someone who's guilty of talking down on people from time to time (which I'm honestly trying to avoid).  Please play nice?

Washougal, please leave it up to me to give my own unwanted lectures. I'm old and cranky enough without getting more indirectly attributed to me.

Everyone, the subject is supposed to be Panty and Stocking, not each other's perceived hostility or sensitivity. Please stay on topic.
