Biography[]
Panty and Stocking are the Anarchy Sisters, a pair of angels who were banished from Heaven due to their rude behavior and were therefore sentenced to hunt demons in order to redeem themselves. In episode 7, Stocking became Gothitron Stocking and founded the Stockingcons after she ate Mingeatron's heart. In episode 12, Stocking succeeds at doing just that and is taken back into Heaven, while Panty is left on Earth, having failed her test. However, Stocking returns later in episode 13 to help Panty fight Corset. Together with her sister and with some help from Chuck, Garterbelt and their mother, they foil the demon's plan for global domination.
However, in the very last minute of the last episode so far, she reveals herself to be a demon and murders Panty, cutting her up into 666 pieces. She then leaves with Corset, who is resurrected as a blob from Brief's penis despite having been seemingly killed earlier. The two proceed to head to a neighboring city, leaving a trail of Panty's pieces and saying to Brief that if he wants to get her back, he has no choice but to follow them and lend them his assistance with opening a new Hell's Gate.
In Season 2, Panty is revived and gets into a destructive fight with Stocking in Daten City, endangering many people. Later on, they are forced to form an alliance with their rivals Scanty and Kneesocks to hunt for ghosts, which leads to Panty and Scanty shooting up a diner full of people and later setting it on fire, endangering even more people.
Ending[]
There is absolutely nothing whatsoever in the series even remotely foreshadowing the strange twist (Although she leads the Stockingcons in a war against Panty and even found the Cowpers adorable and even fell in love with a grotesque ghost), which makes no sense even by this obscene show's standards. The creator studio, Gainax, is infamous for bizarre twist endings that infuriate fans, and this ending is by far the most extreme example of this ever, to the point that it qualifies as a parody of this tendency and was probably an outright act of trolling.
The ending had the possibility of being canon since the release of Geek Boy Homecoming, a sequel comic focusing on Brief's efforts to resurrect Panty, in 2017.
However, in the new series continuation, New Panty and Stocking With Garterbelt, recently premiered in 2025, is revealed that Stocking is not actually a demon and got brainwashed by Corset who got inside her brain before they got back to the church, meaning Stocking is still an Angel.
Former Speculation[]
Since no explanation so far existed for the twist, many fans had taken to made up their own theories. A popular interpretation is that Stocking is at that moment brainwashed by Corset (Which is now confirmed). Another is that this Stocking is an imposter replacing the real one, possibly a demon in disguise. However, others theorize that she has really become evil, and her return in episode 13 was actually her getting banished from Heaven once again, perhaps permanently (becoming a fallen angel, and hence a demon).
Another interpretation was that this ending of the show is non-canon and merely serves as an ending gag that parodies Gainax's infamous twist endings.
Appearances[]
Panty is a blonde haired girl who transforms her panties into a blue-and-white gun.
Stocking has very long navy blue and pink hair, teal eyes and rather large breasts. She usually wears a black and white Gothic Lolita dress with a bow in her hair and a pair of distinctive striped stockings, though occasionally she has been seen in other outfits, including a school uniform, long formal dresses, a business suit, and a bathing suit.
She often carries around a plushie in the shape of a half-skeleton cat. This plushie is called Honekoneko (Bone Kitten) or sometimes "Hollow Kitty", and its expression often changes to mirror Stocking's own.
Personalities[]
Panty is a sex obsessed blondie who doesn't take her job as a ghost hunter seriously, unlike her sister.
Stocking is more focused on her task and serious than her sister Panty, though that is not saying very much. She has a very serious sweet tooth and constantly gorges herself on sugary treats. Despite this, she asserts that she can never gain weight because all the fat goes straight to her breasts.
Unlike her sister, Stocking is not particularly lustful and has sex much more rarely (again, given Panty's tendencies that is not saying very much). She is a goth girl (as evidenced by her attire and her room) who displays some strange sexual fetishes, namely fondness for BDSM (as shown when she finds enjoyment in getting tied up and electrocution). She also once fell in love with an absolutely repulsive-looking and obnoxious Ghost. Those strange sexual preferences may be foreshadowings of her evil nature, especially when one ponders how much she has in common with the main villain of the show, Corset.
Powers and Abilities[]
Panty[]
TBA
Stocking[]
Stocking has the ability to turn stockings (her own or presumably anyone else's) into holy Angelic katanas called Stripes I and II which can damage and destroy Ghosts, Demons and other Angels. Usually, she fights with only one sword, but when pressed can remove both her stockings to duel-wield. She displays impossible ability with her blades, as she is able to create myriads of slicing waves, spin around with her swords extended to slice everything around her, and deflect bullets from demonic revolvers. Garterbelt has stated that where Panty primarily relies on power, Stocking primarily makes use of skill. She also has diverse other attributes associated with an angelic nature, such as enhanced strength and endurance.
She also has the noncombat ability to never get fat, claiming that all of the sweets that she eats only enlarge her breasts. This ability was once overdriven by a Ghost who produced unnaturally fattening treats, but aside from that, there seems to be no reason to disbelieve her claims.
Stocking also seems to have extreme luck at gambling, shared with her sister Panty. It is unclear whether this is a common Angelic attribute or unique to the two of them. However, this incredible luck can be broken by the presence of a demon.
Her plushie Honekoneko also has an ability of its own: breathing fire at opponents. However, this was seen only once, in If Angels Wore Swimsuits.
Trivia[]
- Stocking's appearance and theme may be based on Marie from Marie and Gali, in which Marie is also a girl who enjoys food, has a plushie animal and wears gothic lolita styled clothing.
- In "Catfight Club", Stocking admitted to sleeping with one of Panty's partners (the gym rat).
- Stocking has always worn a corset, which just happens to be the name of the demon sisters' boss.
- Stocking's weapons, Stripes I and II, still had a blue/white color scheme at the end of "Bitch Girls: 2 Bitch". This may indicate that she is still an angel, due to the weapons of the Demon Sisters, Scanty and Kneesocks, having a yellow/black color scheme.
- Her cat toy, Honekoneko, can also be used as a flamethrower, as seen in "If the Angels Wore Swimsuits".
- Stocking's English voice actress, Monica Rial, also voices Bulma in the FUNimation English dubs of Dragon Ball Kai and Dragon Ball Super.
- In the new series, Monica Rial was replaced by Cristina Valenzuela as the voice of Stocking.
