From experience, some designs of boxer shorts can be a bit of a struggle.

"Nigecha dame!"

is much more accurately translated as "I mustn't run away!" when you consider the context it was used from within the show.

"No escape!" has the totally wrong connotation.

I wouldn't exactly call it a bad thing, since there's tons of boxers based off of videogames.
Now, let's just hope there's some for us ladies next time, yeah?

Exactly! I'd feel so cool wearing a pair of Evangelion panties.

...Well, maybe "cool" isn't quite the right word.
But I'd enjoy it nonetheless. It'd be like being a kid again and wearing Jigglypuff underwear.

Soon, somewhere in Japan, an otaku will face a dilemma: put off his 'first time', or risk embrassment and pray she doesn't change her mind when she sees his 'I mustn't run away!' boxer shorts. (Be careful when you wear those! Laughing )

if you don't watch anime, you don't know what those logo are.
It looks normal compare to some other boxers.
