I'm baffled by this: Panties

Another anime that has lots of panty shots is Agent Aika. I saw the trailer on the Shamanic Princess and Midnight Detective DVDs. I swear, there was at least one panty shot in every scene of the trailer. Panty shots are just fan service and they help to make more money. Yay for panties!

[color=#4B0082]I always figured the reasons for panty shots was obvious: Attract a wider male audience through fanservice. Kinda sad, but I get the feeling that it works.

Myself, I think the height of panty shots is when they're humorous. Chobits' panty shots come to mind as good examples of the shots being used in funny ways. ... Though I don't think anything can beat Happosai's antics in Ranma ½.[/color]

Now I'll agree with you on Chobits. The panties in Chobits was pretty cute I must say...

... but Happosai just really annoyed me so much. That little old man would just bounce all over the place and steal underwear, steal them!

I wouldn't know, I've never seen Ranma 1/2...but I have seen Chobits, in fact I own 6 DVDs...and there isn't really that much panties in it...the episode when Chii goes looking for underwear and the wind blows up the girls skirts...and the episode when she accidentally works for a strip joint...I believe that's it...oh and then the episode when she takes off Yumi's bakery outfit

i always figured they showed underwear to make the character have a certain sense of sex appeal. Im pretty sure that explains why Kagome's underwear never shows. It isn't their intention to show her off as some sexual prowess.

Najica on the other hand has attraction and sex appeal as part pf her weaponry almost.



theres me two cents
