I'm watching through this for the first time as well. I think I'm 12 episodes in so far?

Yeah, its killer. Everything in it is great. Pacing, action scenes, characters, music, just all fits in perfectly.

I thought it was OK, but not spectacular. Definitely not as strong as Bebop. I suspect most people will like it more than I did, however.

The bad thing about Panty and Stocking is that there will never be a sequel because the Japanese didn't like it. Tsk.

I'd imagine if Adult Swim or something would pick it up it'd get a bigger following and there might be more of a chance. The Big O got a second season thanks to its popularity in the US after all.

...but I'm not gonna hold my breath.

I kind of doubt Adult Swim could show it unedited (well, un-bleeped at least).

I don't really see any reason why not, they've showed stuff just as bad before, if not worse.

Nothing in the show is any worse than what you regularly see on South Park.

True, but South Park is also bleeped and such on air isn't it? I know they've shown stuff late-late night unedited, but usually Adult Swim was last I saw (though that was a while ago).

Not that it'd ruin the show or anything. It'd still probably gain fans that way.

Finished watching the second season of Kaleido Star and the OVAs (even that odd computer animated one I had to track down on the internets.) Fun show. Glad I got all the way through it (that first part of season two though....*stabs*)

Now onto... something else....

There's a Salamander (Yes, the Gradius spin-off) anime. Has anyone seen it?
