Ask John: Will Panty & Stocking Get a Second Season?

Question:
Will there be any possible chances for another season of Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt? And if you believe so, how soon?

Answer:
Gainax has seemingly confirmed plans to produce a second season of Panty & Stocking. The series’ final episode ended with a “To be continued in next season” promise, which fans worldwide have taken as a promise. However, Gainax’s Dantalian no Shoka anime series is set to premiere in July, and Gainax has never had two concurrently airing anime television series before (excepting the concurrent broadcast of Boukyaku no Senritsu and Kono Minikuku mo Utsukushii Sekai, but Boukyaku no Senritsu was primarily animated by J.C.Staff). So a second Panty & Stocking anime series isn’t very likely until this fall, at the earliest.
