A Fallen Angel (天使, Tenshi) is a supernatural being that is particular about purifying "unclean" humans .
Transforming: By hiding their wings, they are able to appear human and can switch from a human to angel form with ease.
However, Fallen Angels cannot literally change the past as even God cannot , as stated by William T. Spears. Their ability is to enter a human's memories and convince them that none of the bad things in their lives actually happened to them and can replace them with happy memories if necessary.
Some of the best anime about angels feature angels in the conventional sense - they come from heaven, they have halos and white fluffy wings. But anime often takes creative liberties with the concept of angels. For example, the angels in Neon Genesis Evangelion are space monsters that need to be defeated using giant mecha, and the angels in High School DxD are a lot sexier than anything the Bible intended. If you want to see angels get weird, there's plenty to choose from.

‘Kobato.’ is one of the best angel anime that I have come across. It is fun and fulfilling. I really love the animation and the characters. The story is sweet and simple but the implementation of it is really spot on. The show has a total of 24 episodes with each episode being around 24 minutes in length. Hanato Kobato is a sweet and naive girl who does not want to see anyone suffer and is always willing to help people. This makes her very well-suited for her mission to collect konpeito which appears after she heals a person’s suffering heart. She wishes to fill a bottle with konpeito because she wants to go somewhere. Her origin is unknown. But there is one catch to her mission though. She cannot fall in love with the person whose heart she heals. Well, that kinda makes it a bit predictable, doesn’t it? But believe me, it is a beautiful anime and you should watch it.

Angels are a popular theme in any form of entertainment media. So, it is only given that there will be tonn es of anime which showcases the theme.

Fallen Angel is a pop song written by LISA and Mitsunori Ikeda, and performed by Mitsunori Ikeda and Aimee B. The full song was included in the series' first musical score, Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt The Original Soundtrack .
Final Scene. As the song concludes, Panty and Stocking are seen with wings and halos, rising to heaven. However, they drop back down, move to the bottom right corner of the screen, and face the viewer as the screen irises out. The irises stop to frame the sisters as they tip their halos and wink, before closing completely.
An alternate video was posted on Gainax's website. It may be the end credits planned for Season 2, but for now serves as an independent video. Unlike the first video, almost all of the scenes unambiguously show the angels' deaths, including: Panty and Stocking walking across a railroad as a train approaches.
