After 15 years, the lewd angels Panty and Stocking are finally coming back to screen! During the Anime Japan 2025, it was announced that the New PANTY & STOCKING with GARTERBELT anime is returning with a brand new season.

A brand new trailer also introduced two new angel villains, who will make the lives of our protagonists a living hell. The new anime will premiere in July 2025.
New PANTY & STOCKING with GARTERBELT cast and staff
The new characters are two angels who will make their first appearance in the sequel series. The voice cast for the new additions are:
- Polyester voiced by Junya Enoki (Yuji Itadori in Jujutsu Kaisen, Totomaru Isshiki in Ron Kamonohashi’s Forbidden Deductions)
- Polyurethane voice by Yūto Uemura (Thorfinn in Vinland Saga, Atsushi Nakajima in Bungo Stray Dogs)

- Panty voiced by Arisa Ogasawara
- Stocking voiced by Mariya Ise
- Garterbelt voiced by Koji Ishii
- Brief voiced by Hiroyuki Yoshino
- Chuck voiced by Takashi Nakamura
- Scanty voiced by Yuka Komatsu
All of these cast members are returning from the original 2010 anime series. However, Akeno Watanabe is voicing Kneesocks, replacing Ayumi Fujiwara, while Yuki Natsuyoshi is voicing Fastener, replacing Miki Makiguchi. Many artists such as ☆Taku Takahashi (m-flo) and Teddyloid, KM, TAAR, MONJOE, Yackle, Mitsunori Ikeda,TAKU INOUE, 80KIDZ, and Junji Chiba, are returning to perform music for the sequel anime.
Hiroyuki Imaishi (Kill la Kill, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners) is returning as the director for the sequel anime. Hiromi Wakabayashi (Kill la Kill, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners) is the script writer while Atsushi Nishigori (Darling in the Franxx, Kill la Kill) is the character designer.
The original PANTY & STOCKING with GARTERBELT anime was created by Gainax as a multimedia franchise which included the original anime, the 2010 manga, and some music. The New PANTY & STOCKING with GARTERBELT will likely introduce a new story.
The story of the series revolves around two banished angels Panty and Garterbelt, who were kicked out of heaven. They end up in Daten City, a place plagued by ghosts. They’re taken in by Reverend Garterbelt, who asks them to turn their lingerie into weapons and banish ghosts with it. Things get interesting as more and more colourful characters turn up in the sisters’ lives. Filled with vulgar themes, the anime is entertaining and hilarious (for the right audience)!
