You can call PUNCH LINE a lot of things, but it's certainly no joke.
~~~*"to a supremely happy and peaceful future!"*

For a series that technically starts with a bus hijacking, you could be forgiven from assuming from its first episode that *PUNCH LINE* is a fun, loose, *FLCL*-inspired romp about a teenage boy who gain…
Read full review on AniList →Modestly ecchi, thankfully not detracting from its underlying charm. Not outstanding, but not a waste of time.
Punch Line is a modestly ecchi themed anime, that fortunately does not stick to it very strongly for the majority of the show. The introduction is understandably giddy and, luckily, tries not to take itself too seriously. Panties, nosebleeds, apocalypse, the trailer definitely does those justice, bu…

I think a good start is telling how I even became aware of this anime.
For those unaware, the writer of the anime was Kotaro Uchikoshi, who is probably best known for the Zero Escape Series (999, Virtue's Last Reward and Zero Time Dilemma), as well as AI: The Somnium Files and it's sequel, Nirvana…
