Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt/Headscratchers


 * I really do not want to offend anyone, but when the F*** are we going to get Season 2?
 * The first half of episode 13 (massive unmarked spoilers ). Specifically, the "Alp Girl Panty" part. It just raises too many questions, like: Who was the old woman? Was she really Panty's, and thereby Stocking's, grandma? Paternal or maternal? What ramifications does the previous question have on the fact that Panty and Stocking's mom is apparently God? Who was Sam? Was he a childhood friend of Panty's (and by extention, Stocking's)? What ramifications will the fact that Panty believes them both to be dead have? Was Panty aware of the fact that the whole thing was a movie set (doubtful, as it seemed she spent days weeks  months a long time on the farm and seemed to genuinely believe her "Grandma" to be dead)? Is Sam really dead?
 * Yeah, I think the "grandma" was basically a grandma in an Honorary Uncle kind of way, both of them knowing they weren't actually related by blood. And you could view it as a literal Ten Minute Retirement, seeing that Panty could have just shoved the memory out of her head Considering how this is Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt...
 * OP here, how about this theory: Garterbelt knew that, in her Heroic BSOD, Panty would want to leave her old life behind, so she would go live with this old woman who may or may not be her actual grandmother. Garterbelt and the old woman came up with a plan to get Panty back on track, so they faked the deaths of the old woman and (possibly) Sam. Garterbelt was going to explain all this to Panty at the end of episode 13, but didn't get the chance to.
 * AND ANOTHER THING! Considering how we see a photo of young!Old woman, and she looks practically identical to Panty, and this is commented upon, it would cause quite a Plot Hole if it turns out she wasn't Panty's "Grandma".
 * That sequence really did not make much sense at all. Maybe it could be designated a Big Lipped Alligator Moment ??
 * One of the criteria for a BLAM is that is has little to no effect on the plot. "Alp Girl Panty" has an effect on the plot, as it gets Panty out of her Heroic BSOD. So no, it's not a BLAM.
 * I just assumed it was all an over-elaborate act and the people involved were just actors. Y'know, Toon Logic?
 * The old woman is shown with a little angel-cell phone. It could simply have been an elderly angel helping garterbelt out. and I always thought that the picture was actually Panty... She has been with a lot of men after all...
 * It doesn't bug me too much, since I know when it happened, Rule of Funny was in effect, but after, I wonder why he didn't explode when Stocking cut him up one time. I guess being The Chew Toy gives him some protection.
 * Its because he didn't die when stocking cut him up. He simply regenerates.
 * My original thoughts on Chuck was that he was some hapless Ghost that Panty and Stocking adopted (for lack of a better term). I just didn't expect him to be
 * Weeeell? Are we getting a second season or no?
 * OK, in episode 13, Brief and Panty finally hit it off. Why the hell isn't Brief happier about it? I mean, dude! You just got laid by the girl of your dreams! Why aren't you jumping for joy or celebrating?
 * ...Because
 * Because more important matters require his attention. Like stopping The End of the World As We Know It.
 * In episode 12B, Garter holds up for a few moments a chart that tallies up the number of heaven coins gathered by the girls, and Stocking's kill count towers above Panty's across the board. Except if we backtrack a bit, the Ghost Report being given by the Demon Sisters in 12A told us that the episodes have covered most of the major ghosts, and Panty has dealt the deathblow a lot more often than Stocking on screen. Of course, 12B is the one to imply that Stocking has sessions where she unintentionally hunts solo, and off-screen hunts are probably happening, but surely not enough to generate the staggering difference in the chart?
 * It can probably be explained by there being a time skip of a week or two between DC Confidential and Brief+Panty. There also are probably naturally occurring ghosts that aren't refined by the demon sisters (such as th loser ghost from Les Diaboliques or, presumably, the ones from One Angry Monkey) that could be hunted as well.
 * In the final episode, when "Mom" stomps on Corset and the giant Ghost, we see Corset exploding. But not the Ghost... Does that mean it's still there, waiting to be unsealed? Does that mean Daten City will have to live knowing (possibly) that there's a gigantic Ghost underneath them?
 * Panty is a BITCH. What does Brief see in her?
 * He has a thing for blondes.
 * Also everyone treats him like dirt, so he might not see anything wrong about the way she acts. Also she's hot and he's a hormone-riddled teenager.
 * My guess is despite being a bitch to him all the time, he likes that she at least does it as part of her nature, not because she thinks it's fun or anything.
 * So... what's the deal with the whole 'Panty's powers are restored when she loses her virginity' thing? For that matter, why did she lose her powers in the first place? I mean, I could understand if her powers disappeared when she had sex, because she would have broken heaven's mandate, but there's no reason given at all for her abilities disappearing and even less explanation for why they came back...
 * Dude, their incantation has the words "Holy Virgin" in it. If you use logic, Panty should have lost her powers along time ago.
 * "Holy Virgin" is most likely reffering to the Virgin Mary/God's mother. Who they technically serve. As they are still angels. Really, really, really bad at it, but technically still angels.
 * Maybe we've got the whole Nature Loves A Virgin idea completely batshit backwards?
 * She has her powers from not being a virgin. It's just that, like in old video games, you get a high enough score and the counter resets to 0.
 * Okay, if Stocking really is a devil, why did she even bother helping Panty out after she came down from heaven again? Or for that matter, how can she use angelic powers if she's a devil? How did she get into heaven to begin with before she was kicked out with Panty? How did no one in heaven notice she was a devil? What about-- *Suddenly coughs uncontrolably, pulls out an inhaler labeled MST3K Mantra and breathes deeply* Okay, no more questions for now.
 * It ain't called a Gainax Ending for nothing. Here, let me top that MST3K off for you.
 * This applies to a lot of shows, I guess, but how does one kill a ghost? And how does one ghost kill another? Do they just exorcise? How does one spectre exorcise another? It's confusing, but I suppose that's the fun of it.
 * In-universe, Ghosts represent the grudges of the dead. So how does Mr. Husband have a grudge when he's considered the friendliest Ghost to literally walk the Earth, and not to mention, Chuck, the Angels' Butt Monkey with a literal Super Powered Evil Side?
