    ぱんつ＆パンツ（『糟日部ぱんつハンター３』寄稿絵）

    いまでんさん(user/12273 »)のC79新刊・『糟日部ぱんつハンター３』(pixiv #14996125 »)へのゲスト寄稿絵でございます。

    寄稿絵を描くにあたって、「ぱんつ(下着)」と「パンツ(ズボン)」の違いは何なんだろ、と思って調べてみたら、なんと『英語圏の広辞苑』ことオックスフォード英英辞典にも両方の意味が載っている始末ｗ

    ……なるほど、あちらの方も混乱しておられるのね(＝ω＝.;)
    とか思っていたら、こういう絵になりましたｗ

    ehh it's more of a language thing imo (unless there is a strike witches scene that has this exact joke. I'm not familiar with the material)

    I mean "pants" is what brits call underwear, while pants-pants they call "trousers"

    I am also of the opinion that the english used in this is not egregious enough to warrant the ranguage tag

    In Strike Witches, none of the characters wear anything below the waist except underwear, but there's a running joke that "They're not panties, so it's not embarrassing."
    It might have been a Strike Witches reference if Konata had said "this is not pants" but as it is, the joke just seems to be that in Japanese "pantsu" has the double meaning of both "pants" and "panties."
