I wonder how many other people got a bit of a twinge when they read "your another."
There is no such thing as a science experiment gone wrong.

It's been fixed. Shawna, on the other hand, we're not sure about.

Aww, Paul squandered the chance for a good extended "Who's on first" gag.

The "Victoria's Secret Compartment" .gif from Wikipedia. Which anime was that from, again?

Giant Robo, i believe. I think it's also the one that has a handgun that looks like the Yamato with a pistol grip.

Yep. From TVTropes:
Giant Robo The Animation: The Day The Earth Stood Still, one of the greatest - or at least the most completely insane - works to come out of the anime industry in the 20th century.

An (unholy) amalgamation of Wuxia, Superheroes, Richard Wagner, Mecha Anime and pure insanity, Giant Robo: The Day The Earth Stood Still is notable for being an early and rather impressive example of the Massive Multiplayer Crossover, formed when director Yasuhiro (Mobile Fighter G Gundam) Imagawa was told that he couldn't use any of the supporting characters from the manga or TV versions of the Giant Robo story. Struck by inspiration, he instead decided to instead take characters from the rest of original creator Mitsuteru Yokoyama's work, including Babel II, Sally the Witch, Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Akakage and many others. To add to the effect he decided to draw them all in Yokoyama's classic 1960s style, along with a retro-futuristic world populated by Ninja, ancient Chinese warriors, Sharp Suited Businessmen and Badass Longcoats walking side by side.

Amazingly, it works.
Further:
Omake/Filler: The three Ginrei Special OVAs, ranging from a reasonably well-executed prequel Side Story to pure animated Crack Fic, were created to maintain interest and raise funds during the main OVA's production delays.
Victoria's Secret Compartment is featured in one:
Ginrei pulls a full-sized bazooka from her cleavage in "Iron-armed Ginrei / Ginrei the Mighty".

Pickle, you missed out on a golden, Abbot and Costello-esque, moment.

Shawna: "What are we watching next?"
Castella: "Another."
Shawna: "I know that, but what is it called?"
Castella: "I told you, Another."
Shawna: "What?"
Castella: "Not What, Another."
Shawna: "Look, are we watching Another Anime!?"
Castella: "I just told you."
Shawna: "Told me what!?"
Castella: "We are watching Another."
Shawna: "I know we're watching Another Anime, but what is it called!?"
Castella "I keep telling you."
Shawna: *after a long sigh* "Cass, look at me."
Castella: "okaaaaaaay."
Shawna: "We are watching Anime, right?"
Castella: "Yes."
Shawna: "We just got done watching Anime, right"
Castella: "Yes."
Shawna: "And now we're going to watch Another."
Castella: "Absolutely! It's one of my favorites!"
Shawna: "But what is it called!?"
Castella: "Not What,...
Shawna and Castella: "Another."

*curtain drops on a frustrated Shawna*
