For one, they are angels. The 'hook' was that the remaining main heroes would have to collect all the pieces her sister cut Panty into to revive her.

Secondly, the show is pretty unserious.
Most likely the new anime will open with Panty revived and Stocking back to being good with no explanation whatsoever; if anything it will literally just be them standing around together going "Well that was some wild shit, let's never talk about it again" before proceeding with some unrelated comical bullshit.

What most people never heard, is that the dubbing team lied. The show was not a bomb in Glorious Nippon, and the producers did not tell the dubbers to do ANYTHING to make it sell. The real truth was, the show was a modest success in Glorious Nippon, and the dubbing team was full of frustrated funny people, who were desperate to show the world how VERY FUNNY they are.

The dub was funny......... in short (very short) doses. But they still lied.

To be honest don't care in the end, and don't think there's really anyone out there champing at the bit to see a 'faithful' english dub of the show.

Anyone else reading this series?

I got back into it after someone posted the mom Chapter.
Was the anime good? I never got around to watching it.

We all know manga can conjure up emotions but what were the times when you found yourself SEETHING with rage reading manga?

ITT Pages that made you angry.

This page is from "Evil Heart" in which an extremely abusive person turns up to terrorize two small children living on their own, I was so angry that he would even dare turn up.

I mostly need an outlet to talk about Kamen Rider, really.

Binged on Fourze. It's great, except for like 12 episodes when Meteor shows up and drags everything down until Prom.

All these new kamen riders just sort of blend together for me, watching a franchise get dragged out forever is tiresome.

Not like it bothers the ones making it though since burnt-out oldfags are hardly their target audience.

I was expecting it to be meso-american flavored Record of Lodoss War, but it became a mystery anime during episode 4. Still meso-american flavored fantasy adventure anime, just less emphasis on 'adventure'. It's a tad on the talky side, so it's not for everyone. It's premise, setting, mystery, and characters had me intrigued and enthralled so I loved the shit out of it even if it had a "FUCK YOU READ THE LN" ending, which I know rubs people the wrong way. It's 12 episodes I don't regret and still my AotS for Summer 2015.

The different adaptations spun off from the original OPM are all complete shit.

Especially the manga. Murata just can't help himself in dragging things out like a glacier stuck in tar, adding stuff that completely destroys the writing or repeatedly going back to redraw chapters he's already done

There's something weird going on with some threads in /jam/.
When you look at them on the board the posts are now somewhat out-of-order with much older posts being below newer ones.
But if you open up the thread to view it they are in the right place.

Apart from this thread the Sailor Moon one over >>89059 is also showing these symptoms.

There's a new Jojo manga out.
On one hand its the sign of an oldass franchise getting milked even harder when you get a spinoff written by a different person following side characters from an earlier instalment but on the other its interesting to see Hol Horse as a main character.
