Panty Shot

A specific variety of Fan Service, the Panty Shot is exactly what it sounds like: a gratuitous exposure of a female character's panties.

This form of Fanservice tends to be uncomfortable (and incomprehensible) to the poor souls accustomed to underwear exposition of the I See London variety. Often averted by using a Magic Skirt or Modesty Shorts.

No examples, please. This only defines the term.
