Panties

The girls - and their panties - are back!

Extremely frequent exposures of the female characters' panties is what can be considered a focal point of the Aika series.

Almost, if not all the girls wear short skirts or dresses, leading them to contribute numerous panty shots over the course of each episode. This commonly occurs when a girl fights, moves, when the camera pans to a view that looks up her skirt, or when wind blows her skirt upward. Girls who are defeated in combat also invariably expose their panties, as their bodies commonly sprawl in (fairly amusing, but) undignified positions with their skirts riding up their hips, or with their legs spread wide apart, their panty-clad crotches visible. Sometimes, when the camera zooms in on a girl's crotch, the shape of the girl's labia can be seen against the fabric of her panties, as was the case with Kana Shiraishi's body after she was defeated by Aika Sumeragi.

White panties
The majority of the girls in the series wear white panties beneath their skirts. This includes Aika Sumeragi herself, most of the main female cast (apart from Karen Minamino), and all the generic female enemies (the White Knights and Delmo Corps).

High-leg Panties
In the original AIKa, the majority of panties are of the high-leg variety with high waistbands that ride the curve of the hips and narrow bottoms.

Bow Panties
Panties from the prequels are mostly of a more modern style with low waistbands and tiny bows below the front waistband which vary in color.
