Re: [RPG]: Panty Explosion, reviewed by Turbo (4/5)

Heres a list off the top of my head. These don't all fall within the Psychic Schoolgirl genere (infact most of them don't) but these were all comics, films and anime that I watched or thought about while working on the game. Matt could probably give you a very different list. We dig different things.

Psychics and supernatural stuff (not just girls):

Mai the Psychic Girl
Oh My Goddess
Silent Mobius
Akira

Horror and Suspense:

Parasyte
Dead Friend
Whispering Corridors
Wishing Stairs
Ju On
Line
Ringu
Cello
Survive Style 5+
Battle Royale
Daisy
One Missed Call
Red Eye (not the recent Wes Craven film)

Social Interaction:

Genshiken
AzuManga Daioh
Boys Be
GTO
Shadow Star
Alien Nine
Bounce KO Gals
Suicide Circle
Heathers
Kare Kano

Panty Shots:

Cutey Honey
Najica

Bloodtype:

My boyfriend is Type B

Panty Explosion is about social interaction between a group of girls. The psychic stuff is just the back drop. Thats why most of the source material that I was interested in is school or relationship stuff. You'll also notice that most of the syuff on the list is film or manga. There are a lot of Psychic Schoolgirl animes (from what I understand), but we don't get many of them over here.

Hope this helps. I'll probably get around to putting up a good reference list on our site soon. FYI, I buy most of my DVDs from Cine-east.com. They have pretty much every dvd I listed here. Most of the anime and manga I listed is readily available at your local comic shop. Line is actually a cheat. I just picked that up today. Its a damn good example of the kind of non-supernatural suspense story works really, really well in PE.
