They'd have to take them off every time before they fly, it'd take too long! Need to be able to jump into the flying legs at a moment's notice!Dresden said:Why don't they just wear pants until they have to fight aliens or whatever?
Right!Reknoc said:Because they always have to be ready! Always be vigilant! What if someone attacked, and they were just chilling in their pants? By the time they get them off everyone could already be dead!
Well of course that's the reason, yes.mAcOdIn said:It's all BS anyways, clearly the author started with girls in their underwear and worked backwards to try and think of a reason why they were in their underwear, there's no real logic behind it.
On that note, I'd love to get explanations for why tails seem to so often just materialize through clothing, in shows with people with tails. Um, the clothing needs holes for things like tails and wings to go through, but often they don't bother with any kind of visible opening, they just ... go through anyway. It's stupid.Like do the clothes even matter when their animal familiar or persona's tail comes through their clothing, why do they even have animal forms, who fucking cares burn it with fire.
Fighter planes are better than battleships.Edit: Honestly, I don't see why they don't ditch the striker units and just get all the witches together and make them power a fucking huge ass flying battleship.

For most of the characters, the tails aren't blocked (their pants ride low on their hips).mAcOdIn said:Like do the clothes even matter when their animal familiar or persona's tail comes through their clothing

I know!A Black Falcon said:Well of course that's the reason, yes.
It's the better way for the integrity of the work, lol, integrity of the work in regards to Strike Witches, lol, however it's also the creepier way for the audience because it attempts to legitimize underage girls running and flying around in their underwear.A Black Falcon said:As I've said before though, I definitely like how in the series they don't really care about it -- people have gotten used to it so for them it isn't weird. That's better, and more realistic, than if they were all embarrassed about it all the time or something.
It's all fucking magic like magnets.A Black Falcon said:On that note, I'd love to get explanations for why tails seem to so often just materialize through clothing, in shows with people with tails.

Well sure but the witches aren't planes either. But the should at least have the option, I mean, their method of transportation is largely irrelevant it's the fact that they can lift heavier weaponry and enhance the weaponry with magic that makes them a threat to the Neuroi in the show, so why not give them some options? Why not have like a giant ship they could use one episode against a heavily armored yet slow enemy or a large ground based cannon they could all feed their energy into for massive damage? It was a stupid concept and the show was stupid but they could have varied the enemies and how they beat them a tad bit more, even Go Lion has more variation than Strike Witches and they only have separate lions or Go Lion.A Black Falcon said:Fighter planes are better than battleships.
God, please tell me you had to ask or look this up.Kagami said:For most of the characters, the tails aren't blocked (their pants ride low on their hips).
For those where that doesn't work, like the Fuso witches, their bodysuits have holes in the back for the tail to go through.

I am so there.Geneijin said:If you're around San Francisco:
Well I already have the first two sets so this doesn't help me but I guess it's great they caught up. I hate Youtube though, wish they'd put it up with Hulu like His/Hers or make a XBMC/Boxee/iOS/Android app.Articalys said:How excited is Nozomi Entertainment about their upcoming release of the final third of Utena?
So excited that they're going to be streaming the first third on their Youtube channel, two episodes per week, up to the volume 3 release.
Subtitled (sorry cajunator) and US/Canada only, but still a cool gesture.
I am so there.

Haven't watched the show but....B.K. said:Last Exile 2 episode 3
I thought it was interesting that Ades is only attacking the nations founded by the humans that returned to Earth on Exile. They aren't trying to take over the world, like most countries that start wars in anime. They're just trying to reclaim the land that was stolen by the returners. I wonder how they're going to explain Dio still being alive ~120 years after Exile's return.
I don't even....Kagami said:I guess you could say that.
mAcOdIn said:And of course the other factor we're leaving out is whatever revenue they make from their run on domestic television broadcast in Japan. I don't know exactly how TV licensing works in the US let alone Japan but I figure they're either getting some of the advertising money or some money from the channel it's broadcast on. I'm sure that some home video sales are needed for most shows to break even or even profit but I also wouldn't be surprised if there were some shows done on such shoestring videos and are made just to fill a slot that they're(home video sales) just an afterthought.
RurouniZel said:No. 6 10-11: I don't know why I put off watching the end of this, but now that I have I still have no idea what the hell just happened. Not a very good conclusion in my opinion, it tried to have dramatic moments but just came off as "And that's it. The end." And I just wasn't feelin' it. :/
I think if the girls actually wore pants it would be slightly more watchable than it already is.icarus-daedelus said:What, is it because they look like they're 10? Do not let such trivial matters deter you in the pursuit of zettai ryouiki, friend!
ivedoneyourmom said:You are an amazing person to have watched past episode 8. I have a pretty good tolerance for crap, but that was my breaking point.
You watch without subs right? I can't imagine having to sub that show, that would be truly painful.
It's not just looks, Lucchini is officially 12 years old in the series!icarus-daedelus said:Pants-wearing moe anthropomorphizations of WWII fighters? How ridiculous.
Actually the fact that they don't apparently wear skirts, shorts, or anything at alll is especially disconcerting considering they look like they're ten. And have tails.
Ironically the only character who does wear pants is based off pilot Adolf Galland, who apparently flew his plane while wearing his swimtrunks. So I guess we can't win either way.icarus-daedelus said:Pants-wearing moe anthropomorphizations of WWII fighters? How ridiculous.
It's just good and executes everything well. If you're not watching Tamayura for whatever reason, then this is clearly the only other choice.Articalys said:Chihayafuru 5
I guess I missed the Madhouse hype train or whatever for this series because while I agree it's definitely a solid show, I don't get the lavish praise everyone keeps heaping on it.
Looking forward to the main plot now that all the setup is done.
It's not. Hope that helps.DY_nasty said:I can't decide if guilty crown is a good show or not
