FLY AWAY NOW FLY AWAY NOW FLY AWAYYYYY~~~!!!
[WARNING: May contain spoilersssss]
Doesn’t the promotional picture makes you think it’s just another Cartoon Network show? But look at the title, isn’t it too obscene for kids to watch?? LOL.
Because it is not decent to begin with!
*cough* [imitates PowerPuff Girls’ narrator] THE CITY OF DATEN (Daten City), is just another fictional place in an alternate universe where citizens live and do their daily stuff. At the same time there are also Ghosts moving about, and these things are the main monster of the week. At the residential church, resides two fallen angels by the name of Panty and Stocking. Under the supervision of Garterbelt, they were given tasks to eliminate Ghosts so that they can collect heaven coins for a ticket back home in Heaven.
Anarchy Panty – The blonde in the red dress. Her favourite past time is having sex with any random hot guy, anywhere and anytime! You wouldn’t guess what her goals are before she goes back to heaven. Her main weapon is a gun which is actually her panties, and she can actually transform other people’s underwear into different kinds of guns (which seem to reflect individuals’ size and shape)
Anarchy Stocking – The Gothic Lolita girl with the plushie in her hand. She likes to eat sweet things like cakes and pastries, and never gets fat cos all the fat goes to her boobs. She may not be as lusty as her sister, but her taste in men stinks. He socks are her weapons, which turns into dual katana. She's more well-mannered and responsible than Panty, and is never a potty-mouth unless proboked.
Garterbelt – the priest of the church with an afro. He’s not as… holier-than-thou as he appeared to be (*coughSMcough*). He monitors the fallen angels activities (even as far as disguising into someone else) and acts as a messenger of god when a ghost is detected. Like his namesake, he wears a garterbelt under his robes. And am I the only one who noticed that 'anti-christ' symbol on his attire? LOL
Chuck – Every mahou shoujo needs a mascot. Well, I wanna consider PanSuto as mahout shoujo cos they got that f*ckin’ transformation scene that makes you cream in your pants! By the way, there's a trilogy episode regarding this thing...
Brief – aka Geek Boy, an awkward ghostbusters fag who has a huge crush on Panty. He may seem like a nuisance, or irrelevant... but he’s so damn important YOU GOTTA SEE THE ENDING man!
Scanty & Kneesocks – The daughters of the city's mayor are worth mentioning, as they’re the recurring villains and the latter is my favourite b1tch aside from Brief, after Stocking broke my heart. In contrary to the Fallen Angels, who are prone to appear badass, these are the devil sisters who are ironically worshiping the existence of RUUUUUUUUUUUUUURUUUUUUU (the word “rule” spoken in Japanese). They also have a mascot that apparently has a history with Chuck; he’s called Fastener.
[the devil sisters: Scanty & Kneesocks]
Like just another typical American children’s cartoon, the episodes appear to be unrelated. Each episodes are divided into two parts, and the titles are usually a parody of existing movies. Initially, I was turned off by the obscenity in the first episode, but seeing how my friends tweet about the upcoming episodes sparked my curiousity. The second episode won my heart, and henceforth I survived the ordeal towards the end. They made an excellent parody of the environment in American school, and that hobby of making out with random people. They also have that Japanese-y stuff going on to balance the developers origins. For instance; THE BEACH EPISODE is a must have! And that seifuku fetish. I have to say, if I ever dropped this, I’d surely miss A LOT.
Eventually, the anime came to a turning point that implies that PanSuto HAS a plot, which I’m pretty much happy to hear cos usually these ‘American’ shows doesn’t have any. The final battle was something that you’ve never seen before in the history of “climax of the story” , kudos to GAINAX for breaking your record of your previous success (Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann). And the ending is like LOLWTF..??? And we’re all expecting a second season. I mean, THEY OWE US AN EXPLANATION!!!
The OST is one of those which are actually memorable in my mind, although the genre is not my cup of tea. Other than the Fly Away song, I’m more infatuated by the Theme of Scanty & Kneesocks. JUST BECAUSE! ED song is rather soothing, especially when you went through 20 minutes of madness; Fallen Angel by Aimee B.
To be honest, I’m really sorry to say that every episode were pointless to watch, but if you were in for “the lulz” and something totally out of this world than DO WATCH PanSuto. It’s like watching an X-rated version of PPG. But if you plan to watch, please be warned that the obscenity is so extreme that it puts the real life dirty conversations look like a one inch dick.
oh yes before I wrap up this post...
I love the cosplays :3
