UPDATE: The latest episode of New Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt has just dropped on Prime Video, and it features a hilarious spoof of The Mandalorian that fans are already raving about. Released today, July 15, 2023, the third episode of this cult classic series promises a rollercoaster of laughs packed with pop culture references.
This revitalized version from Studio Trigger, known for its work on Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, keeps the comedic energy high as it reintroduces audiences to the misadventures of angels Panty and Stocking. Now joined by their devilish rivals-turned-allies, Scanty and Kneesocks, the group takes on odd jobs in their quest to cleanse Daten City of demons.
In a standout segment, viewers will find Scanty and Stocking infiltrating a samurai dojo, where they encounter a character remarkably reminiscent of Pedro Pascal’s iconic Mandalorian persona. This character, dressed in robes, humorously contrasts with the original armor, and even features a Baby Yoda-like creature dressed as a dog in diapers. The episode smartly intertwines this homage with classic Star Wars references, including a comedic spin on the catchphrase, “This is the way.”
The episode’s humor resonates particularly well with younger audiences, leveraging current meme culture to maximize laughs. As the series continues to pull from a deep well of pop culture, it has referenced everything from Attack on Titan to Spider-Man: No Way Home.
Fans are experiencing a wave of nostalgia and excitement as they watch the latest antics unfold. According to a review from io9, the show retains its raunchy spirit while expanding on its chaotic narrative style, hinting at even more outrageous adventures to come.
With new episodes airing every Wednesday, New Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt is rapidly becoming a must-watch. The series is not only a hit due to its humor but also due to its sharp commentary on modern influencer culture and societal trends.
