Are you afraid of the bottle fairies?

Oh, that doesn't sound as funny.

Well now that we've established how little fear there is for the fairies, let's answer the last question: Will the overtake the Hello kitty for the coveted uber cute crown???!!!

The darker side of anime may not lie with the explicit and graphically violent, but with the ridiculously cute. Some fans have watched enough samurai bloodbaths and sexual deviancy to the point where nothing in animation could possibly shock them. But sit these same people in front of a hyperactive kids' show decked out in primary colors, and they will whimper as if their aesthetic sensibilities have just been clubbed with a Kawaii paddle. That's the power of Panyo Panyo Di Gi Charat, where cat-eared hats and nonsense syllables rule all, and only those with an iron resolve can withstand such pure, unbridled silliness. It's a show that has its moments, but put it all together and it becomes way too intense except for those with the sweetest tooth.
