Panty & Stocking reminds me of an Adult Swim show, except Japanese...
I've heard that The Powerpuff Girls was an inspiration too, and it kind of does feel like an Adult Swim Powerpuff Girls inspired show or something... it's got the 12 minute episodes of those shows, too (Well, the episodes are divided in half and have two unrelated parts in each one, specifically). Except, well, made in Japan. I'd say "and weird", but Adult Swim shows are weird already, so it wouldn't be accurate... but it's got lots of sex jokes and bathroom humor, so yeah.
The second part of the first episode is just awesome though, funny and really entertaining... great stuff. :)
Essentially, for anime it's very nonstandard. Is this good or bad? I don't know, I'm not a huge fan of most Adult Swim-style shows... I did like a few (Robot Chicken, ATHF), but most of them, not so much. Overall though, it is good.
