Panchira
Panchira (パンチラ) refers to a brief glimpse of a woman's underwear. The term carries risqué connotations similar to the word 'upskirt' in English usage. The word is a portmanteau of "panty" (パンティー, pantī) and chira, the Japanese sound symbolism representing a glance or glimpse. It differs from the more general term "upskirt" in that panchira specifies the presence of underpants (the absence of which would more accurately be described as ノーパン; nōpan).
In anime and manga, panchira usually refers to a panty-shot, a visual convention used extensively by Japanese artists and animators since the early sixties. According to Japanese sources, the convention probably started with Machiko Hasegawa's popular comic strip Sazae-san, whose character designs for Wakame Isono incorporated an improbably brief hemline. The practice was later transferred to animation when Osamu Tezuka's Astro Boy was adapted for television in 1963. Confined mainly to harmless children's series throughout the remainder of the decade, panchira took on more overtly fetishistic elements during the early seventies. From that point on, panchira became linked with sexual humor such as the kind found in many comedy oriented shōnen manga.

Punisher
by: Reel Big FishI shook your hand
I may have smiled
I was just tryin' to be nice
But you forced your way into my life
And now it's years from then
And you're still hangin' around
With no respect for personal space
You're always right there in my face
Callin' you a stalker is a little harsh
But that's almost what you are
You're always showin' up
When you're not invited
Here is something that I've finally decided
I gotta tell you
You're a punisher
You're unbearable
You are terrible
Punisher
You just torture us
And I have had enough
Punisher
You have got to go
How can you not know
That you drive me crazy
It's amazing how annoying you are
Now here you come again
Makin' yourself at home
But no one even likes you
Can't you get that through your skull
Don't you see the dirty looks
Don't you notice I don't keep in touch
You're pushy
You're pushy
You're pushy
And I've been pushed around too much
I guess you're too crazy to see
The nuisance that you are
But you have reached the end of my toleration
And now it's finally time for a confrontation
I gotta tell you
You're a punisher
You're unbearable
You are terrible
Punisher
You just torture us
And I have had enough
Punisher
You have got to go
How can you not know
That you drive me crazy
It's amazing how annoying you are
Callin' you a stalker is a little harsh
But that's almost what you are
You're always showin' up
When you're not invited
Here is something that we have finally decided
(I gotta tell you)
You're a punisher
You're unbearable
You are terrible
Punisher
You just torture us
And I have had enough
