Comedic Underwear Exposure



""I see London! I see France! I see [Insert Name Here]'s underpants!""

- Traditional taunt

Classic underwear reveal, usually accidental, and tends to be accompanied by the above rhyme in film. Generally involves Stock Underwear, especially Goofy Print Underwear. This trope is usually for comedic intent, catching a character in their most embarrassing state. There's also Cringe Comedy present, as the situation is usually awkward.

Can be prevented by Going Commando.

Anime and Manga

 * Momiji in Blue Seed suffers from this with such monotonous regularity that the other members of the TAC team pretty much assume it's going to happen and the only suspense involved is in her choice of Goofy Print Underwear that day.
