Today's search term is "serafuku", i.e. "sailor suit", the standard (usually) school uniform for high school girls. Not too surprisingly, a lot of Kancolle, but also a lot of Haifuri.

Ha! Our suspicions were right! The reason we never saw any flashes of Nodoka's panties is that she wasn't wearing any!

OK, this joke is about a series from 2009 so some of you may not know about it. "Saki" was the last series Gonzo made before they went out of business. In fact, they shut down with 11 episodes left to go, and the series was finished by Picture Magic.

It wasn't really all that good, and so Gonzo loaded it up with fan service, especially the character Haramura Nodoka, who had immense breasts and spent most of the show gainaxing. But despite the fact that the main girls wore ridiculously short skirts, and the camera angles were looking up ("perverted dwarf cam") and there was a lot of wind, we never saw any panty flashes.

The rumor at the time was that Gonzo top management told the director, "No panties. None." But he went ahead and did his story board the way he would have if he was going to give us lots of them, which was the norm at Gonzo before that. So there were lots of shots which should have revealed panties, only there never were any. That led to the suspicion that (in context) the reason we never saw Saki's panties or Nodoka's panties was that neither of them ever wore any.

If Gonzo management was trying to cut down on the salaciousness, they failed.

Why do these girls only have one stocking on? It's from Kancolle so there's probably a reason (though I'd hesitate to refer to it as a legitimate reason).
