I find it quite funny as well. I may end having to get a pair or two myself.

There's nothing wrong with having the face of a loli girl on your crotch.

Not exactly for sharing with the public eye, I reckon.

"Wait til I show this to my coworkers!"

I doubt you're the only one, but personally this crosses the line into creepytown for me. Those body pillows are in the same category. I always figured character goods should be about showing your love for a series. I don't want to have to flash people or invite them into my bed to show them how much I like Lucky Star.

Oh man, there are way too many jokes floating around in my head. I have an advertising slogan for them though, "Get lucky with a pair of Lucky Star underwear on." I know we are culturally different in America, but is wearing something like this really socially acceptable? Where does it end Eva tampons, FMA sanitized pads, gurren lagan condoms... Oh man I would totally buy those. THE DRILL THAT WILL PEIRCE THE HEAVENS!

LOL, man, this is great! I agree the face one is definitely a little creepy, but I think wearing the cheerleader bottom one is a bit worse... I am not quite sure how many people will wear that one... But I would definitely buy one or two of them just to have...

I' m not really sure whether this is the most Awesome Thing ever, or the most Pointless. Either way, it has certainly been the most unusual thing that I' ve seen all week.

Boy I'm dying here. The underpants with 'Konata' on the front is hilarious. Her face alone states much "satisfaction".
