Getting this out of the way: Treatment of shounen lead. = 6 (out of 10) Upskirt panty shots. = 0 I guess in the end, a show that aims to actually be "good" doesn't have to rely on a small dose of sexualization. (Because unfortunately, animu with upskirt panty shots tend to go too far and would evidently become a major turn-off.) That being said: Etotama's a pretty fun anime. The characters herein aren't too predictable and trope-based. If they are trope-based, then there were efforts to break said tropes and have them become more solid characters. "Efforts," mind you. And while the amount of cartoony violence (outside of thefighting violence) is abundant; atleast it's not focused upon the shounen lead.

This show is too good to be left in "low-Wapan-sales" limbo. I'm hoping either Sentai Filmworks ("disc space" argument be damned) or Media Blasters can get this show and give it an English dub.
