And they're already listed on HobbySearch! I wanted to cut down on my imports because of the bad Yen exchange rate, but this is pretty tempting.

The usual translation I've seen is "They're not panties so I'm not embarrassed!" Although them be some funny-looking zubon, eh? Wink

Trust me, you aren't missing much. I am guy (but not interested or a fan of this show in the least) and I wouldn't wear those. Way too weird for me and I've seen some pretty weird objects made from Japan.

I'm a girl and I want these badly, even if they are mens... XD But, of course, it helps that I'm a fan of the show. (and not afraid of weird anime merch.)

At least they aren't Strike Witches panties. *shudder* The scary part is that 95% of the buyers would be fat middle-aged men with neckbeards.

I can see just see it...

She beckons you to join her on the bed, half-undressed and looking willing. You take off your shirt, showing off your six-pack abs and strong arms. After walking to the bed and hopping on beside her, she slowly unbuttons your jeans and languishly pulls down your zipper. In her eagerness, she quickly yanks down your pants.

And she is suddenly greeted by the appearance of Sanya V. Litvyak staring back at her with all her moe cuteness.

"..... WUT?"

To which you respond, "They're not underpants, so I'm not embarrassed!"

This somehow reminds me that you sometimes get weird stuff with DVDs... Shuffle! volume 6 with artbox comes with God Panties.

Oddly enough, I just gave them away to my sister. Oh, and I got a lecture from my mother about giving my sister panties being wrong. Seriously, what am I gonna do with panties and why not give them to someone that is actually gonna wear them?

But those panties were included with the artbox. Buying panties just separately, seems odd. Mainly because I am Male and have no practical use for them.
