Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt is a 2010 anime series from Gainax, directed by Hiroyuki Imaishi, built around two angels who swear, fight and cause chaos in Daten City. Because the dialogue is deliberately crude, censor bleeps became part of its noisy, irreverent style and were instantly recognisable to fans. Clips of the beep later spread on soundboards and in meme edits, where creators reuse it as a quick, universal censor for any rude word. Its simple electronic tone still works because it needs no context to be understood.
