During
the Anime Expo 2024 event, a new promotional visual was revealed for “ New
PANTY & STOCKING with GARTERBELT “, the new project of the “ PANTY
& STOCKING with GARTERBELT ” franchise after GAINAX studios
sold the property. The statement listed that TRIGGER studios are
in charge of this project, but also listed the production team involved in this
franchise that returns after fourteen years of absence.
It
should be noted that there is no premiere date announced yet. In fact, it is not
even known in what format this new project will be presented, because although
many expect it to be a new series, it could be a movie or even a short film.
“ PANTY
& STOCKING with GARTERBELT ” is an anime produced by GAINAX ,
known for its irreverent and humorous style that combines elements of Western
pop culture with the aesthetics of Japanese anime. Directed by Hiroyuki
Imaishi and with character designs by Atsushi Nishigori ,
this anime was notable for its dynamic and colorful animation, as well as its
vibrant soundtrack created by Taku Takahashi . Premiered in
2010, the series has gained a cult following thanks to its bold narrative,
quirky characters, and satirical approach that parodies both American cartoons
and anime clichés themselves.
Synopsis
of Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt
The
“Sisters of Anarchy,” Panty and Stocking, have been expelled from Heaven for,
to put it mildly, misbehaving. Led by a priest named Garterbelt, these angels
must buy their way back by exterminating ghosts in Daten City. But this task
requires unconventional weapons for these unorthodox angels: they transform
their lingerie into weapons to dispatch the spirits. Unfortunately, neither of
them take their obligations seriously, as they prefer to dedicate their time to
other “hobbies”: Panty prefers to sleep with anything that walks, and Stocking
prefers to gorge on candy than hunt ghosts.
Follow
these two rambunctious angels as they battle ghosts, an overflow of bodily
fluids, and their own tendency to stray in Panty & Stocking with
Garterbelt.
