After watching ep 2 of this, I think I like the show even more. It really reminds me of the old Saturday morning cartoon that had "villian/ monster of the week" plot lines. And I kinda like the fact that each episode is split into 2 parts. I haven't seen a show like this in a while, and I've never seen a anime quite like this. The crude humor doesn't bother me very much, so I'm gonna continue watching.

Unfortunately, I found ep 2 to only be slightly better than ep 1. Again, I'll withhold full judgement after a few more. I'm waiting for this to really find it's strong points, which I think it's still grasping for.

Ep3 - 2nd short.

They will be hard pressed to top this. So many puns and euphemisms.

I don't even know what to say ... That episode was just .....wow. This series is by far my fav out of the currently airing anime. And somehow i really like the outro.

I still like the second part of episode one the most but this one was just crazy lawls.
"The people cannot be [...] always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented, in proportion to [...] the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions, it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to public liberty. What country can preserve its liberties, if it's rulers are not warned [...] that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants."-Thomas Jefferson

Really enoyed this show after watching 3 episodes. I think it's one of the anime which combine succesfuly both japanese and american styles. Really.
Apparently few people here compare it with Powerpuff Girls. But honestly, Gainax is the one of the best studio for doing references.
Example : the highway sequence from Matrix Reloaded was just awesome!

Anyway I am very glad to see finally something different and enjoyable. The 2 characters are very funny and their personnalities are very... ahem... intended xD
This time : no "please-Oni-chan-big-eyes-loli-stupid girl" but a true nymphomaniac, fuck yeah !

I enjoy more Panty and Stocking than Gurren Lagann actually (but I am not a big fan of shonen/mecha).

I tried Gainax, I really tried. I can honestly say that this is the only Gainax production that I don't like. :/
