You can read the comments from the cast below:
Arisa Ogasawara (Panty): “This is Arisa Ogasawara, the voice of Panty. I couldn’t believe it when I first heard that Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt is coming back! I thought “Huh? No way! Is this a joke?!” But it’s true! And to top it off, it’s been 14 years… I’m super surprised! I’m really excited to meet the “bitches” again. Whether you’ve seen Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt before, never watched it, or watched it but couldn’t quite understand it, I hope you’re looking forward to it!”
Mariya Ise (Stocking): “No way… Is the legendary anime Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt… coming back?!?! I’m definitely not the only one who has been eagerly waiting for a new series… It’s going to come back even stronger and cause chaos in Daten City!! Please look forward to it!!”
Koji Ishii (Garterbelt): “Ah, so it’s being renewed… I wonder who will act Garterbelt,” I thought, and then it turned out to be me. I was honestly surprised to be taking on that physically demanding role after 14 years, and I realized that I’d have to push myself and get in shape to handle it. After all, as you all know, it’s quite a serious role… So, I’m fully focused and deter to approach it with seriousness and dedication.”
Hiroyuki Yoshino (Brief): “Wow, are we really going to release this work into a world so full of restrictions…? To everyone who enjoyed the previous series, of course, and to those who are experiencing Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt for the first time with this new installment, I’d be so happy if you could enjoy this bold, no-holds-barred, unapologetic work—one that hides nothing and shies away from nothing!”
Takashi Nakamura (Chuck): “When I first heard that New PANTY & STOCKING with GARTERBELT was in the works, I didn’t believe it for about a month. Then, I was told I would be reprising my role as Chuck, and that’s when I realized, “It’s really happening!” and “I’ll be able to take part in that crazy, wonderful project again!” With that realization, I spent many nights trembling with a mix of excitement and pressure.
Every day, I quietly mutter “Chuck!” in casual conversations, trying not to let anyone notice, and whenever I’m alone, I immediately shout “Chuck!” and do my best to work hard on preparing for the role!”
Yuka Komatsu (Scanty): “After 14 years, in today’s world of compliance hell, Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt with its lewdness and anarchy is coming back? I’m sure everyone who heard this thought the same thing. And I’m beyond thrilled to continue bringing to life the cute and sexy Scanty! Top-tier adults are seriously playing the fool. If you’re going to be silly, you might as well go all out! Let’s go wild together!!!”
Akeno Watanabe (Kneesocks): “It’s been 14 years since the previous series, which was loved by so many, and now we have a new installment. As I’m joining from this new series, I’m really focused on making sure I’m in sync with the other voice actors. To those who have been eagerly waiting for the continuation, I will do my best.”
Yuko Natsuyoshi (Fastener): “Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt is back…! I never imagined I’d be able to participate as a voice actor. If I could go back and tell the younger me who used to draw and play around with pictures of my beloved “devil sisters”, that one day she’d get to voice Fastener and be bossed around, I wonder what kind of face she’d make… I’m honestly so happy and looking forward to it!”
