Freud Was Right/Anime and Manga

{{quote|Satou: There was a robust snake that dived into the sea, then, stabbed an apple with a broadsword, and shot it with a large, black imposing gun.}} {{quote|"Do you believe in gravity, Enrico?"}} {{quote|Ichigo: I WILL NOT LET YOUR SNAKE TAKE MY BODY! Ryo Utagawa: You're full of openings.}}
 * On top of the usual Studio Gainax Mind Screwing, FLCL has more sexual symbolism and Double Entendre than you can shake a suspiciously phallic baseball bat at. At times, it's like Faux Symbolism with sexual symbols instead of religious ones. Somewhat justified in that FLCL is a coming of age story, but still..
 * Like the moment in episode 5 where a conspicuously phallic... gun hammer, forms in the back of Naota's head. Now, what makes this Freudian is the fact that there's a (nearly) naked Haruko on top of him, close enough for the little phallic... hammer in the back of his head to bring their lips together... in front of his father. Yeah, you decide.
 * I'd like to point that the gun hammer was the most subtle out of the other phallic items sticking out from his head... horns, anyone?
 * Most blatant? The horn/tentacle that extends out of Naota's head, shoots right between Mamimi's legs, slams into the pavement and starts writhing and burrowing. Uh. Er.
 * Continuing in the vein of Gainax and symbolism, Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann has drills. Epic, manly drills that will penetrate pierce the heavens. Made the jump from subtext to text in the fight with Lordgenome, where he remarks that "your Spiral Energy is bigger than mine" (technically he said, "Your Spiral Energy has surpassed that of my own.", but some people just want to take things the wrong way...). Spiral Energy. Right.
 * Well, we knew Simon was packin' from the HotSpringsEpisode. He needed his whole damn drilling tool to hide his package.
 * In the manga, Kamina actually looks at it and comments "Drill Simon!". Also, manga Leeron Lampshades the drills' symbolism by telling a frozen, blushing Simon "You thrust it in! How manly!".
 * Anime Leeron does the same thing. "Just stick it in! Give it a big, manly twist!" Also, in one episode where Dai-Gurren is sinking, Simon pushes it back out of the water... by pushing it with his drill. Cut to Leeron inside the Dai-Gurren, who feels the impact in his ass.
 * Spiral Power is a metaphor for evolution. People with more Spiral Power can take more Evolutionary Levels. And we know how evolution works......
 * And not just drills. Adiane's Gunmen talked through its crotch and had eyes right about where its nipples would be. Her Gunmen's teeth (used as cockpit displays) are also rotated 90 degrees from the usual orientation. And there was a scene where the Dai-Gurren (which is really, really phallic) gets torpedoed in the bridge... cut to the male crew members wincing.
 * There's also the (definitely NSFW) fifth "Parallel Works" video {{spoiler|which is just a very weird dream of Gimmy's]].
 * In the episode where Team Dai-Gurren is imprisoned by General Guame, Nia is in the bridge handcuffed. Ultimatly Simon and Lagann penetrate the floor with its "giant drill". In doing so, Lagann "liberates" Nia from her shackles.
 * There's also the battle with Cytomanter's Dai-Gunten, which Cytomanter was rammed by Dai Gurren's bow, who then proceeded to charge into the Dai Gunten with said bow while the bridge's gunman face was screaming out loud.
 * And before we're done talking about Gainax, we have to mention Neon Genesis Evangelion, which has it in spades. For example...
 * Shamshel, the fourth angel, is suspiciously phallic-shaped. Ramiel, the fifth, penetrates NERV with a giant drill. Arael, the fifteenth, "rapes" Asuka's mind. Armisael (in episode 23), the sixteenth, literally physically penetrates Rei and her Eva while Rei arches her back and makes the sort of cute squeaky vocalizations than one might expect Rei to make during sex (if one were to spend time speculating about such things).
 * Earlier in episode 23 when the angel Armisael tries to fuse with Shinji and Rei and Shinji stabs Armisael causing her to let out a horrific scream and then tiny Rei heads emerge from bloated veins that have appeared on Shinji's hands while calmly saying 'It hurts Ikari-kun. Doesn't it hurt'? And then Armisael takes Rei's form, and caresses Eva-01's face, causing veins to appear across it, in an attempt to "become one" with Shinji.
 * The Lance of Longinus is the only weapon capable of penetrating AT Fields and disabling God, said God {{spoiler|being the mother of all humanity}}. Yeah.....
 * NERV HQ itself is built around a central shaft that Angels are always trying to penetrate.
 * Lilith. Just.... Lilith.
 * Entry plugs might be phallic, but are inserted into the upper backs of the Evas; not many people have vaginas on their upper backs, so draw your own conclusions.
 * The entry plugs kind of resemble wombs, which is still symbolic...and Freudian.
 * Don't even get started on the mother and Oedipus Shinji thing. The souls in the Evas, Misato's relationship with Shinji, rivalry between Shinji and Gendo, Ritsuko going after the same man that... look, just don't even get fucking started.
 * Shinji is inside his mother, which is Ferenczi.
 * One of this page's [[media:p23lk4.png|former images]] was a scene from End of Evangelion with "Giant Naked Rei". Click the link, and note the pose and the phallic shape of the flow of souls into the Black Moon. To take that scene even further, {{spoiler|not only does Rei/Lilith have a gigantic vagina in her forehead, she has vaginas in the palms of her hands}}. Also, near the end of the movie, Rei and Shinji are shown talking with each other about Instrumentality; both are naked, and Rei is sitting astraddle Shinji in a very suggestive manner.
 * Actually, since they're in the Sea of Souls, they're one. Therefore, their bodies are merged by the crotches and she is actually sitting in him.
 * The Human Instrumentality Project. {{spoiler|While it is an orgy of trying to initiate the mass suicide of humanity, the assimilation process basically involves Rei going to every point in space and time, and when a human is encountered, she takes the form of his most loved one, which then embraces the human and tangs him while said human becomes one with Rei and die in bliss. Also, the metaphor of Instrumentality as basically becoming all as one. Yes, the suicide of humanity basically involved everybody having a lot of sex.}}
 * In the pipes in the endy bit of Episode 15... looks like a lady bit, eh?
 * In End of Evangelion for Freudian imagery of the Les Yay variety, the figure who Maya sees is Ritsuko who types "I need you" on Maya’s with her hands over Maya’s, and then tenderly embraces her, with her knee planted in Maya's groin. Before she's turned into LCL Maya joyfully returns Ritsuko's hug and cries "Sempai! Sempai! Sempai! Sempai!" with a look of ecstasy on her face as tears flow from her eyes.
 * In episode 23, Misato is a barely-functioning mess in mourning for Kaji, and Shinji's faring even worse, in mourning for Rei (who soon gets better) and upset with his life in general. Misato enters Shinji's room, where he is lying on his bed, sits by him, and tries to hold his hand, telling him, "Right now, this is all I can do for you." The visuals of the scene, which are Freudian even by the ultra-Freudian standards of the series, suggest that she intends something sexual.
 * Also in episode 23 the sequence leading up to Rei's death uses imagery reflective of conception and pregnancy. When the Angel first breaches Eva-00, the monitors make sure to repeatedly display the word "Penetration"; Rei blushes and convulses in a sexual manner. Once the Angel has mostly invaded the Eva, its belly begins to swell in a manner very remniscent of pregnancy. This imagery is juxtaposed with Rei's realization that she wants Shinji.
 * In a particularly Ho Yay scene in the manga, Kaworu enters Shinji's shower stall looking for soap and gets really close while both are naked and getting wet from the shower spray. There's even the word "tension" used to describe the scene. Another Freudian scene in the manga has Kaworu giving Shinji CPR when he starts hyperventilating.
 * In the anime, we don't get Kaworu that far, but we do get Shinji in the shower looking down and toward Kaworu, and blushing. Yes, Shinji is falling in love upon seeing Kaworu's penis.
 * Kaworu's Leitmotif is "Ode to Joy". Much of the choral part can be overanalyzed. Particularly "Himmlische, dein Heiligtum" (We enter your shrine.), "Ja, wer auch nur eine Seele/Sein nennt auf dem Erdenrund/Und wer's nie gekonnt, der stehle/Weinend sich auf diese Bund" (Indeed, whoever can call even one soul his own on this earth! And whoever was not able to, must tearfully creep away from this band.), "Freude trinken alle Wesen/An den Brüsten der Natur" (Joy all creatures drink at the breasts of nature.), "Wollus ward dem Wurm gegeben" (Pleasure was given to the worm.) and "Muss ein lieber Vater wohnen" (Surely there must be a loving father.)
 * This might be a bit overanalysis (of course, given the nature of this trope, that's impossible), but sperm competition. Only one angel can penetrate Lilith. "Only one life form may inherit the future."
 * The manga goes extremely far in making all the Freud Was Right explicit when Shinji, trapped in the Eva, is "tempted" by a seductive apparition of naked Yui, or rather Unit 01's Angelic side in her guise.
 * FairyTail has Mummy Bondage. What Do You Mean Its Not Symbolic?
 * Plue vibrates a lot. Now, think about the shape of his nose for a while.
 * Also, note please: Virgo, under the employ of Lucy, is a pretty late teen... dressed as a maid... with chains on her arms. Bear in mind here that she's best accomodating Lucy's personal preferences in the ideal servant. So... yeah.
 * One Piece fans have probably realized that Franky's hair becomes flaccid when he runs out of juice. Quick refill and it jumps right back up.
 * Fans have frequently noted a similarity between the monsters in Blue Gender and, um... well, see for yourself.
 * Kinda reminds me of the {{spoiler| GIANT SPACE CUNTS }} enemy ships in Vandread...
 * In Futakoi Alternative, the male protagonist and a couple of twins share a sequence of flying through the air together. Freud has theorized that flying dreams were a way to express sexual desires.
 * Referenced in Welcome to The NHK. Misaki tries to psychoanalyze Satou's dreams. Satou purposely gives her... well, we'll just quote it:
 * In one episode of Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha we have an animated tree, complete with root tenticles, that has a very... sugestive... mouth.
 * Done on purpose in Gintama with the "Neo-Armstrong Cyclone Jet Armstrong Cannon" (It has a high quality finish).
 * Also, we should note that the title is one letter off from kintama, which means testicles.
 * It's better than that, golden balls or kintama is like family jewels, gintama is silverballs.
 * The Elric brothers in Fullmetal Alchemist love their mommy waaaay too much. This subtext is so obvious that the third episode of Full Metal Alchemist the Abridged Series is appropriately dubbed Motherf*cker. In the anime, Al even develops a crush on Psyren precisely because she reminds him of his mother (and let's not even talk of the scene near the end of the anime where {{spoiler|Sloth}} practically seduces him). In the anime, {{spoiler|Wrath even fuses with his substitute mom}} and is {{spoiler|welcomed to the Gate by Loving Naked Izumi}} in the movie. Ed, Selim, and the Tringham brothers have daddy issues and so do {{spoiler|Greed}} in the manga and {{spoiler|Envy}} in the anime. And most of the homunculi have strange mommy or daddy issues in the anime and adore almost masochistically their terrifying father/God figure in the manga. Add some Replacement Goldfish syndrome and Evil Counterparts and stir.
 * In a healthy (??) display of Oedipal neurosis, {{spoiler|evil stepmom Dante}} in the anime explicitly tries to trick Ed into sleeping with her because {{spoiler|Hohenheim wouldn't}}. But this is nothing compared to how creeped Edward would've felt.
 * Roy's repeated freezing when Riza Hawkeye tells him that he's "useless by rainy weather" is bound to make us think that this statement is actually not about his alchemy skills. The Japanese word used in this context, "munou" (with "mu" meaning "nothingness", as in The Nothing After Death) also means incompetent or inefficiency -- "impotent."
 * One would wonder how she knows this, in that case.
 * And it has been translated as "impotent," in some fansubs. Blogger inulovinkit put it best: "She would know, I guess."
 * Not to mention towards the end of the manga, when he's getting really frustrated about not being able to help everyone fight the BigBad ({{spoiler|he'd just been struck blind}}) and gripes about how he's useless at the worst moment possible. Izumi 's response: "It's okay, it happens." Roy is clearly aware of the subtext, since his expression just screams, "Oh, shut up."
 * Regarding the spoiler text: {{spoiler|being struck blind}} certainly calls to mind the final fate of Oedipus.
 * Lust takes the form of a beautiful, curvaceous woman... who turns her fingers into blades that can penetrate anything. This power is refered to as the Ultimate Lance, and considering how often spears are used as phallic symbols, ... yeah.
 * Pride is a shadow-tentacle monster who is "watching you from the shadows". In one scene, he possesses Al's body and Al comments that Pride "came inside him" and that his soul felt icky afterward.
 * And then there's Father's behavior during the "Eclipse". Not only does he act like he's having an orgasm the whole time, but there's also the fact he comments that his "sacrifices" struggling just makes things better for him (since it provides more alchemical power).
 * The Big Bad is known only as "Father." The main characters (both male), as a previous editor said, "love their mommy waaaaaaay too much." We don't need Oedipus Rex to solve this riddle.
 * Also, near the end of the anime, Edward defeats Pride by transmuting himself as a philosopher's stone and "forcing his way inside" Pride. Note that both Ed and Pride are having an out-of-clothes experience for this scene.
 * Here's a fun one: the main characters are trying to give life to their mother by bringing her through a mystical gate. Sure, sometimes a {{spoiler|portal between alternate realities}} is just a {{spoiler|portal between alternate realities}}, but, to paraphrase George Carlin, sometimes it's a huge gaping vagina!
 * In .hack//Sign, Tsukasa, a player of a virtual reality MMORPG, gets trapped in the game and is given amnesia. He is also given "the Guardian"; a giant pair of floating yellow balls that stab other players with tentacles. Shortly after Tsukasa rebels against the Guardian and it is destroyed, he regains his memory and realizes that {{spoiler|in the real world, "he" is really a girl.}}
 * {{spoiler|Vash the Stampede}} in Trigun worships his adopted mother too much, which is particularly disturbing in the light of his {{spoiler|hallucinations about her in the anime]] and apparent lack of 'adult' sexuality.
 * To be fair, though, he's perfectly normal compared to Knives, who seems more interested in going after {{spoiler|his own twin}} and is into slicing people (with giant blades, no less... ahem). Also note that he {{spoiler|absolutely hates Rem}} and thus doesn't share in the "ordinary" Oedipal schema of the manga (we might even wonder if, in Nightow's logic, it doesn't explain why he's so batshit insane).
 * The end of the first Trigun manga dares you to see Knives 'rebirth' scene and not to think of anything involving gynecology or rape. It actually seems to involve Death By Childbirth. Then it gets worse when {{spoiler|Knives grabs Vash and forces him to deploy his Angel Arm}}. While standing nude behind him and obviously enjoying his pain very, very much—which, by the way, isn't the only time he goes full frontal. It's even more disturbing when you know that {{spoiler|men who get raped anally by other men get an erection}}. And that it's {{spoiler|his effing twin brother}}, of course.
 * Let's not forget the overtones of sexual rivalry that his feud with Vash tends to take, especially when {{spoiler|Dr. Conrad}} teaches him that "Vash's gate is larger than [his]". His face is priceless when he {{spoiler|nearly gets overpowered by the "size" of said "gate"}} and, much later, when Vash calls him "a wimp with a bulldozer" once he {{spoiler|has fused with thousands of plants, which makes him without a normal lower body but also a guy "fused" with thousands of girls. Who are all his "sisters"...}} Also, note that Knives's "power" tends to disturb everyone in the area (notably Wolfwood). For the sake of the argument, let's just say that pretty much everything Knives does and thinks has a Freudian subtext.
 * Oh yeah, in the anime, {{spoiler|as a one-year-old boy/the rough equivalent of a twelve-year-old human boy, he induced in one of the crew women an illusion that she was being raped by one of her fellow crew members]].
 * There's also the fact that Legato seems very obsessed with him. And {{spoiler|got raped by a Gonk when he was a teenager]]. And is so jealous of Vash (or rather, of Knives's twisted love for Vash) and obsessed with killing him that Vash is the only one who manages to break his composure. Ho Yayyyyy! Also, don't put Elendira's explicit love for Knives in the hands of a Freudian, they hate Transsexuals and might develop crazy theories involving "psychosexual inversion", fetishism and Elendira's mom (or lack thereof).
 * In the manga, {{spoiler|Nicholas D. Wolfwood}} sounds creepy when he has an imaginary conversation with {{spoiler|Auntie Melanie}} about {{spoiler|what an amazing guy Vash is}}. Also fits into Ho Yay, oddly enough. Also, he has obvious daddy issues too, both in the anime and in the manga.
 * Speaking of Vash and Wolfwood, the amount of disproportionately huge weapons in the show is truly mind-boggling. And let's not even get into the details of the relationship between our two favorite, erh, gunmen.
 * The whole deal with the Humpty Lock and the Dumpty Key in Shugo Chara. One time during the series, he attempts to put his Key in her Lock. While doing so, Ikuto hilariously comments: "It looks tight, would it fit?"
 * Shugo Chara is also the only children's anime where sharing an ice cream looks like having an orgasm. To be fair, until Party!, Shugo Chara seemed to push the boundaries of children's anime.
 * In Zettai Karen Children, when The Children are singing at a karaoke bar, the Chief's camera lens zooms in and out in a very suggestive way. Definite Lolicon subtext there.
 * In a scene in the Ah! My Goddess manga, a dimensional door vaguely shaped like a malicious girl falls in love with Keiichi and accepts to open herself... provided he is the one who puts the key into her keyhole. Yeah, that's subtlety for you. The subtext becomes explicit when he slowly inserts the key into her, she moans, and Belldandy very nearly goes into a destructive fit of jealousy.
 * Revolutionary Girl Utena. Phallic symbols abound, from swords to the tower, and Akio makes it pretty obvious we're not just imagining it.
 * Not to mention that the activity in which the series mainly concentrates is people sticking swords in roses on their opponents' lapels. Can you say "deflowering"? And then there's that time Shiori polished Ruka's sword, or the one when {{spoiler|Akio}} breaks his sword (ouch)...
 * Heck, what about the scene in episode 12, where Touga, having become the new duel champion, makes Utena (who has ditched her boy's uniform) watch Anthy kneel down and kiss the Sword of Dios that he's wielding (to top things off, it Turns Red and gives him the power to deal huge amounts of Clothing Damage to Utena). It's like Freud is one of the scriptwriters!
 * Akio's car, Akio's car, Akio's freaking car. He takes almost every character in a show on a ride in it at some point. He also sleeps with every character in the show at some point. After the third or fourth car scene, you can't not think it's indicating something else. And even if that was too subtle for you, there's a scene of Akio driving with Anthy that mirrors his...habits towards her way too much.
 * Instead of outright talking about sex, the characters pull swords from each other's bodies, get dressed after "encounters", have shirts-open, sexually-charged photography sessions, kiss the tip of a sword to give it superpowers, throw their heads back and moan at the throb of a car's engine, and, oh yeah, roll around shirtless with their flies open on beds with each other.
 * Studio Ghibli's Tales From Earthsea had some of the most laughable Freud Was Right moments ever seen in anime—which makes sense, given the main character manages to kill his dad in the first few minutes of the movie. {{spoiler|Arren's shadow}} gives the sword to Therru and rubs it very suggestively while it is in her arms. Therru {{spoiler|gives Arren his sword and his 'manliness' by the same token}}. Therru looks moved to tears when {{spoiler|Arren draws his 'sword of light' before her for the first time}}. Sword of light... right.
 * Maybe the director (Goro Miyazaki) was trying to compensate for his father issues?
 * Mimi's giant cactus mirage. Then, later that same episode, a real giant cactus gives her her Crest. Are we sure she's only 10?
 * Yes, I know that the real cactus opening up to give her the crest is supposed to evoke the beginning of Togemon's Digivolution sequence to Lillymon, but Togemon was never that big.
 * Not that it should matter with that Digivolution. Anyone else see "Poison Ivy" as a plant-based Naughty Tentacles? Then, of course, there's the Fetish Fuel factor of the Ultimate {{spoiler|and Mega}} form...
 * Digimon is full of those moments. Girls always squee in awe when they are attacked by anything with... "vines".
 * Lobomon's lobo kendo.
 * DNA digivolving in the games is a replacement for monster breeding. Daiken and Taito Ho Yay ensues.
 * The character William Will Wo in Gun X Sword is one gigantic walking Oedipus complex. He spends most of the episodes that center on him walking around his family's mansion in nothing but a sheet held over his naughty bits wailing about his mother, {{spoiler|whom he killed accidentally while trying to kill his father as a child}}. At one point, as he's thinking about her, his collapsible sword (which he is holding over his crotch) extends. {{spoiler|When Van finally gets over his Heroic BSOD and kills him, it's a relief.}}
 * Do I even have to start with Gundam? Let's just throw in some examples...
 * Wing Zero's BFG.
 * Gundam Exia's and later, Gundam 00's BFS.
 * GundamZZ's BFG.
 * Shining Gundam's BFS
 * The Strike's Launcher Striker equipment pack. Just tell me what the BFG looks like when it's being aimed.
 * The Apsaras mobile armor series in Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team, which looks more than vaguely vagina-esque and is referred to as an "iron womb" in canon (and acts as such for a character with some pretty extreme Mommy Issues).
 * Also, the Cybernewtypes of UC were pretty much Mind Raped into submission. And Zeta's Scirocco wasn't just 'nice' to all the girls he talked into working for him. Amd Dorothy's admiration towards Relena is not even a little sexual. Or Treize attitude towards Milliardo and Wu Fei. Or the Tallgeese (GWING TAS is right). Let's don't even start with Domon's admiration towards Master Asia (canon's wrong anyway) or Tieria's attitude towards stupid sexy Lockon. (Yeah, not much of an order here but Gundam's just so full of them I can't get them organized by any means not even talking about them being close to complete).
 * Let's not forget the most obvious example. In Gundam Wing, Duo, in his Gundam, heads on down in the ocean to Wing Gundam. How does he shut off Wing's self destruct mechanism? By switching his scythe to a more phallic shape and sticking it into Wing's ass, that's how.
 * Mobile Suit Gundam gives a small example of a "joy" stick...at least I hope that it's a joystick.
 * This poster once read a line by line analysis of the Lucky Star opening song which concluded that it was all about the main girls losing their virginity. He's never been able to listen to said song in the same way again.
 * And let's not even get started on Konata and Kagami's "friendship." Or Yuutaka and Minami's.
 * If you thought all the drills in Gurren Lagann were suspicious, you should watch the also Hiroyuki Imaishi-directed work Dead Leaves, where a dude has a similar looking giant drill for a penis!
 * One guy tried to prove that Pokémon should be banned because he ranted about Jigglypuff being the Pokémon representation of breasts. Oh, yeah, he tried to prove that there was an upskirt shot and that it should be banned. The scene is so fast, he could only have noticed it if he were looking for it.
 * "Maximum hardness, Metapod!" Oh come on, do I really have to spell it out for you? "Metapod, harden like his." "Maximum hardness, Metapod!" They aren't having a battle, folks, they are having a masturbation race. The ending proves it, they both fall backwards in defeat when interrupted. Another weird battle later, Swellow, glowing gold, using Quick Attack, piercing right through a Light Screen.
 * There was an episode where Steelix, the giant Iron Snake Pokémon, invades a valley inhabited by Bidoof, a group of beaver Pokémon. It may have been less a subtext in Pokémon and more the translators trying to screw with the audience, as the translators have been known to do.
 * JoJo's Bizarre Adventure:
 * Freud would have a field day with Dio Brando. His very reason for being evil stems from his daddy issues. Later on in Part 1, he literally wants his adoptive brother's body in order to "live gorgeously forever." The creepy obsessions many of his servants have with him in Part 3 (extending well beyond his mind control over some of them). And let's not get started on the creepy subtext in Enrico Pucci's flashbacks.
 * Gyro Zeppeli, who fights with a pair of steel balls.
 * Joseph did it a few times, too.
 * One name: Zorc Necrophades. Really, that dragon head on his crotch has to be the most phallic-resembling thing in existence and how the hell did it get past the radar is what I'll never know.
 * Seto Kaiba from Yu-Gi-Oh has some Freudian moments. The fact that he flies around in a jet that looks like a dragon has been made fun of enough, but it gets really Freudian when you see him clutching the joystick positioned right next to his crotch. The viewer sees this from a very... interesting angle.
 * In a duel, Seto Kaiba's XYZ-Dragon Cannon got a ring equipped to its "Dragon head" ... eh ... yeah ...
 * What about Relinquished? Look at its "drill" and one-eyed, prehensile shaft.
 * Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's: Yusei's first duel with Sherry is a metaphor for sex. There's no way around it. You'll see it in both the original and the dub. Slightly moreso in the dub, in fact.
 * Honjestly this one is a major stretch even by this trope's standards.
 * Both subverted and played straight in Hana Yori Dango. Akira Likes Older Women because his mother's extreme childishness has turned him off of younger women, but one of the initial things that attracts Tsukasa to Tsukushi is that she reminds him of his older sister.
 * Sora wo Kakeru Shoujo's Leopard, a living space colony, needs a pair of golden orbs (and in Japanese, golden balls also means "testicles") so that he can successfully fire his Wave Motion Gun. In the first episode, he tells Akiha, his new lady friend, to use his "golden gun". Oh yes.
 * And in the third episode he looks decidedly... pleased after she does. There's really no mistaking that one.
 * Venus Versus Virus's Sumire is "attracted" to Lucia's scent while in her Berserker mode. Of course we know the real reason to this, but he manga/anime is yuri, subtext only but still yuri.
 * Her dialogue and reactions during her trial to overcome her superpowered Berseker side in Volume 2 of the manga counts.
 * Lucia dislikes Sumire's boyfriend. a lot. {{spoiler|So much that she kills him with a giant log object to "protect" Sumire. Of course, she does that due to the fact he is a virus.}}
 * Lelouch from Code Geass. He hates his father, has ridiculously saint-like memories of his mother, and the only women in all of his Unwanted Harem that he openly admits his love for were both his sisters.
 * And in the Grand Finale {{spoiler|Lelouch is impaled on the long, thin sword of Suzaku, with whom he has been the subject of much Ho Yay/Foe Yay. Which he asks Suzaku to do to him (admittedly for the purpose of killing him).]] This has been Lampshaded by fans.
 * Adult Swim's website made fun of the scene where Lelouch is holding a champagne bottle pointed up at an angle that sprays its contents all over Kallen.
 * Also Mao is in love with C.C. who gave him his Geass when he was six, making him completely dependent on her for all his social needs. She then isolated him from the world for several years, effectively raising him. When he got older, he fell in love with her. And he also listens to a recording of her voice over and over.
 * There's also the statement by C.C. that she became his "best friend and lover". Fans have already used this line to it's full potential.
 * In Katekyo Hitman Reborn, Tsuna is attracted to and has a crush on Kyoko, despite hardly even talking to her or knowing her. But there's one thing that stands out as being extremely suspicious: she looks exactly like his mother. Of course, if you start analyzing and looking deeper into the ArtEvolution where they both start looking exactly like each other, the possible explanations can be rather disturbing...
 * It also seems to be the fact that their eyes are nowadays drawn exactly the same... Now why would the mangaka do that?
 * There's also Glo Xinia's Foe Yay with Chrome. Considering how during his fight with Chrome he grabbed her hard enough to cause her pain, kept getting in her face, and told her things like: "You seem to like being touched by men. Your blushing cannot betray your desires." "Give me more!" (after hearing her screams of pain) and "It's time to eat... that ring and you!" It's hinted he might've done something to her had Mukuro not shown up, allowing her time to escape. Also, when fighting Mukuro he comes out with this line: "Is that girl so precious to you? Then I'm going to take my share of such a precious girl right before your eyes. This could just be the best situation, don't you think? My appetite for that girl just keeps getting better!" and "Don't worry Chrome, I will take good care of you for Mukuro to see!"
 * Also, in Lussuria's words his favorite bodies are the "wasted, cold, unmoving" ones. Unfortunately, Ryohei goes topless during his fight against Lussuria and this only serves to make Lussuria his hardcore fanboy. In fact, Lussuria actually openly ogles Ryohei's muscular physique and refers to his body as "pretty nice", says that he's "just his type" and promptly decides to take him home and make him a part of his "collection" after he beats him up.
 * All throughout Byakuran's battle with Tsuna we see Byakuran ruthlessly attack Tsuna and taunt him with things like "Very scary, aint it?" while clearly enjoying the nervous/shocked expressions on Tsuna's face. Also, from the ending of Chapter 275 all throughout Chapter 276 we see Byakuran stealing a page out of Mukuro's book by grabbing Tsuna from behind and suffocating him - meaning Tsuna's all flushed, gasping, weakly fighting back, etc. while Byakuran never stops smiling, calling him Tsunayoshi-kun, and breathing things like "look at how helpless you are..." into his ear.
 * Byakuran also smiles constantly, loves symbolic flowers, and has signature moves where he penetrates you. Oh and let's not forget his image song where he asks you to 'give him your body'.
 * Don't even forget his attack known as "white finger." I wonder how he came up with it.
 * And Tsuna's battle with Mukuro had Mukuro spouting such lines like "I'm going to have some goddamn fun with you" and he kept telling him to "give me your body" and "with this ultimate technique you will become mine." (He's referring to possessing Tsuna's body in order to cause a rift within the mafia, but still...) And how he suddenly grabbed Tsuna from behind, got close enough to rest his chin on Tsuna's shoulder and whispered into his ear while Tsuna had a strained expression on his face.
 * And Mukuro has the ability to take control of people's bodies by slicing or stabbing them with his phallic-looking trident. He even tries to throw Tsuna onto it at one point.
 * Plus, the part where he headbutts Tsuna and pulls him back up again by the arms to rest his chin on Tsuna's shoulder during their fight. If you replay that part in the anime it looks like he's having sex with Tsuna.
 * In episode 46 when Gokudera and Belphegor are trying to take each other's rings, at one point, Belphegor straddles Gokudera and all the struggling they're doing makes it look like they're having sex.
 * Any scene about Gokudera and his obsessive loyalty towards Tsuna. One example being this scene with Gokudera jumping fully clothed into a pool where Tsuna is swimming when concerned for Tsuna's health, getting close to Tsuna's face, and shaking him. And in episode 138 we have this scene. (Note the sounds Gokudera makes as Tsuna's trying to hold him back).
 * Another HoYay example being this scene replayed over and over when Dino helps Tsuna up off a hospital floor.
 * And this scene where Gokudera gets sick after catching sight of his sister. It looks more like he's getting screwed up the ass.
 * Halibel's release form in Bleach. Considering that it looks like a giant vagina, it could have been avoided had her sword been held another way.
 * {{spoiler|Tousen's vaizard mask}} put the fandom in a tizzy. Considering what he did in that chapter, it also counts as a Visual Pun.
 * Let's not forget that Mayuri Kurotsuchi's zanpakuto has a pink hilt and it hangs off from his belt right over his crotch.
 * Or his supposed use of "sexual healing" to revive his daughter. We don't see anything of course but we see Mayuri moving back and forth and Nemu moaning loudly in response.
 * Let's not forget that panel in chapter 388 with Aizen getting really close to Ichigo and resting his fingers on Ichigo's chest while saying "I can practically touch your heart". Aizen has a perfectly calm (and somewhat seductive) look on his face while Ichigo looks incredibly creeped out. (He's mentioning how easy it would be to stab Ichigo through the heart, but come on.)
 * Nnoitra with his constant Slasher Smile and perverted nature towards Orihime, which was best demonstrated by his nicknaming her "pet-sama" and the one scene where he grabbed her and stuck his fingers in her mouth to keep her quiet while he forced her to watch as Tesla beat the crap out of Ichigo.
 * Szayel Aporro Granz has lots of Freudian aspects to him. Lets start with the fact that his Zanpakuto sword is called Fornicarás which is Spanish for "You Will Fornicate" and Japanese for "Lewd Concubine". Szayel releases his Zanpakutō by calling out its command ("Sip") and then swallowing it, and in doing so, he emits a glow from his mouth. His body then swells to enormous proportions and releases spiritual energy, which then fills in immediate vicinity in a fine mist as he transforms, revealing his released form. In the anime he appears to moan as this happens too. In his released form by grabbing an opponent with one of his "wings" and then spitting them out, one of the strands of his "wings" becomes engorged and bursts with purple liquid, creating a small doll that has the victim's likeness. Szayel apparently absorbs some of the victim's spiritual power in the process. Ishida was noticeably disoriented after the process, and Szayel stated, "Thanks for the feast." before licking his lips.
 * His final ability allows him to be reborn if he is injured beyond repair by "impregnating" an enemy. When he has physical contact with the victim he can implant a portion of himself inside their body. He then "devours" his way out of their body, by way of absorbing all the fluids and chemicals of the victim killing them in the process, like an insect leaving a cocoon or husk when he matures and develops his body back in a matter of seconds from a liquid-like casing coming from the victim's mouth. When being reborn the manga has him laying his egg inside of Nemu and emerging head first from her mouth. In the anime he is resurrected from an embryo that emerges from Nemu's mouth and develops into him.
 * Ishida: (to Ichigo) "Let me hold your sword... It got so big!"
 * Ishida's desperate attempt to stop Ichigo from tearing up what he believes is Ulquiorra's corpse. Then he gets impaled on Ichigo's sword.
 * Tsukishima's power is rewriting your memories and inserting himself into them—as someone whom you dearly love. How does he use it? Via running you through with his katana. In few words, he penetrates you with his sword and is so good at it that soon you're fawning all over him.
 * Then there was this one (anime-only) fight with this snake-themed badguy. From that same episode Kariya the leader of the Bouts offers We Can Rule Together and "wants to get into his body."
 * Full Metal Panic. Season 1's showdown between Gauron and Sousuke. Gauron's sudden grappling of Sousuke's mecha starts looking suspiciously like he's raping him and they're having hatesex. And please don't say that the thick white liquid that starts dripping down on Gauron while he's grinning doesn't represent anything at all. If one were to look deeper into it, in the novels, a very probable explanation is that {{spoiler|Gauron was subliminally (or maybe not so subliminally) enacting out exactly what he wanted to do --- fucking Sousuke up the ass. Only, he was in his mecha while he was doing it}}.
 * The manga even has him yelling out happily, "Yeah, that's what I'm talking about! Ah, what a rush!" And as impossible as this sounds, Gauron's moaning and loud orgasms are actually more pronounced in the novels, where he literally yells out happily, "RIGHT, RIGHT, RIGHT! FASTER! MORE! MORE!!"
 * You know what's really creepy? In the novels, Gauron was saying those things in "an effected, feminine voice". Oh, and he was the one who ended up at the bottom, too, "shuddering and clinging to the Arbalest". Not sure what that's supposed to mean, but Freud would sure have a field day with Gauron...
 * Hell, even Sousuke's actions and noises could be read as having sexual connotations—everything from him thinking how "when I stand before [Gauron], my knees shake", to the blood rushing to his head, to his stabbing, thrusting moves accelerating more and more, to him "not being satisfied" (said repeatedly, no less), to "violently heaving for breath" when he finally stopped, and Arbalest ending up in an exhausted mock embrace with Venom... yeah, a field day, indeed.
 * Gunsmith Cats has two rather affectionate females working together in a male-dominated enterprise with a gun shop as a front.
 * Oh, the kicker here is while Minnie-May has Ken, Rally might have Bean (it's complicated...). Paraphrasing Minnie, Rally compensates "... with those big 'ol guns..."
 * A rather blatant example: in the manga, Goldie drugs Rally with a halllucination-inducing drug. Her first halllucination? A xenomorph-looking monster popping out the hammer of her gun...
 * Kenichi Sonoda does so enjoy this trope. Cannon God Exaxxion... jeez. The symbolism is everywhere, even thicker than Gurren Lagann. What else can you expect from a story of a mecha built around a cannon?
 * Mahou Sensei Negima has this. Talk about your Visual Innuendo...
 * Ahem..."winding". Because it would be too blatant if they referred to it as "screwing".
 * What about the entire series itself? A group of blossoming young women all feeling an attraction to a ten-year-old boy (some moreso than others), the Pactio process... heck, one could probably do an essay on Evangeline alone. Let's face it, Negima is chock-full of Freudian fun.
 * Alien Nine is essentially made of sexual metaphor. Very disturbing sexual metaphor.
 * Hellsing. Vampirism as a substitute for sex is at the very least Older Than Radio, but Alucard takes to a new level entirely. His "fight" with Rip Van Winkle was probably the closest thing to rape without involving genitalia in all fiction.
 * He also likes to impale his victims for Integra...and then basically ask her if it aroused her.
 * In Naruto, {{spoiler|the true form of Kisame's sword Samehada}} manages to be both phallic (the shape of most of it, grows in size when excited, which is described as a "way to show happiness") and a case of Vagina Dentata (at the end of it) at the same time. Then {{spoiler|Killer Bee}} rams a hole through it with his horns.
 * Also, in the Kidoumaru Vs. Neji fight, there's a flash back to the other sound nin, where they are saying that Kidoumaru tends to get too excited when he fights, and that he likes... playing... with his victims. Add that to the fact that he can make... well, distinctly phallic-shaped objects out of his spit, webs that can bind, and six arms... And during the fight, Neji gets his hair tie snapped and his headband off, both things probably designed to showcase his vulnerability against the evil, six-armed spiderman. Neji manages to defeat Kidoumaru but not before Kidoumaru penetrates him with one of his phallic shaped arrows, which, as mentioned above, he had made from his spit.
 * During the Pein/Naruto fight there was a scene where Pein impaled Naruto with his black chakra rods then kneeled in front of him. And shortly after that and getting more of those black rods stuck in him, Naruto winces and thinks "Pain's chakra...is inside me..." And its even more suggestive in the anime.
 * And then there's Suigetsu first appearance where he pressed his wet naked body against Sasuke's back and threatened him in a teasing manner.
 * Also Karin can heal people if they bite her and she seems to... enjoy it. In the anime, when Sasuke bit her she gained a Luminescent Blush and thrust her head back while moaning amidst a bubbly, sparkly pink background. And a later scene revealed that she has bite marks all over her torso and arms.
 * During Orochimaru's Shower Scene Kabuto was in the room watching and downright pleading Orochimaru to "Take him instead".
 * Not to mention Kabuto has absorbed Orochimaru's remains so Orochimaru is literally inside of him.
 * Following the Pain fight Sakura heals Hinata by opening her jacket which reveals her ample bosom and she places her HealingHands above Hinata's breasts.
 * In one scene Anko throws a kunai at Naruto, teleports behind him while his face bleeds, and asks him while holding a hand to his face "You tough enough to handle this? You're not afraid, are you? Tough guys like you usually leave their blood all over this forest." She then starts to lick the blood on Naruto's face up when Orochimaru, in disguise as a ninja student, returns Anko's kunai with his ridiculously long, phallic tongue. He then says "With the sight of blood and your blade slicing through my hair, I'm afraid that I just became a little excited." Not to mention Anko's about twice Naruto's age.
 * Deidara has mouths on his hands and has apparently made them "french-kiss" each other. And he also has a mouth on his chest.
 * During his battle with Tayuya, Shikamaru attempts to restrain her with his new Shadow technique. Thanks to her expression and the fact the shadows take on the appearance of a hand, it looks like he's molesting her. Also, the technique he used on her has the word "shibari" in its name. Shibari is a type of Japanese bondage.
 * And then there's Hidan's sadomasochistic stabbing ritual, which seems to give him a hard-on.
 * And then there's Sasuke and Naruto's HoYay-tastic relationship which is taken Up to Eleven in the infamous scene from the "Konoha Sports Festival" OVA where Naruto and Sasuke are competing in a relay race and Naruto's waiting for Sasuke to hand him the baton. Sasuke comes up behind Naruto and shoves the tip of the baton up Naruto's clothed butt. The next scene shows Naruto laying on the ground in pain with the baton stuck in his ass and Sasuke standing above him (either not realizing what just happened or ignoring it).
 * In the Crossroads OVA there's a part where Sasuke tackles Naruto to save him from an attack and when the smoke clears he's shown to have landed with his face in Naruto's lap. If you replay that part it looks like he's giving Naruto a blow-job.
 * Chapter 486 was called "Fists;" the sexual implications of the word were not lost on fans. "We can understand each other with our fists, and there's nothing wrong with that!"
 * When Sasuke and Naruto have their first reunion after the Time Skip Sasuke appears to be half-hugging Naruto as he whispers in his ear and attempts to plunge his sword through Naruto's back.
 * And then there's anything involving Orochimaru and his "interest" in having Sasuke's body. There's also his final fight with Sasuke, which had Sasuke approaching a ill Orochimaru resting in bed and penetrating him with his sword. Orochimaru sweats and struggles against being pinned against the wall before reverting to his true form, a giant snake comprised of a bunch of tinier snakes, and trying to wrap his snakes and curl himself around/smother a half-naked Sasuke while screaming "Give me your body, Sasuke-kun!"
 * Then there's the chapter where Naruto finally meets his mom, Kushina, which seemed uncomfortably flirty in certain parts of their conversation. Here's a protip, Naruto: Calling your own mom a "babe" really does not help.
 * Who can forget Guts and his huge sword held at crotch level so many times. And then there's the {{spoiler|H.R. Gigeresque Apostles and God Hands}}.
 * Inuyasha's sword grows, pulses, turns red, is usually held at crotch-level, and even has hair on the hilt.
 * Also, did we mention that it turns from old, rusted and small to that gigantic and hairy form mostly when he's trying to protect his Love Interest?
 * Air Gear: Arthur is a masochist who pelvic thrusts against his male opponent Agito and nibbles on his ear while fighting him. He also has flamboyant mannerisms, speaks in a polite manner, and frequently releases heart marks whenever he's reveling in the feeling of pain. Shalott is a loli who wears a frilly-looking dress and drops a bridget on Agito, revealing that he's actually a girly-looking guy who is in a BDSM-type relationship with Arthur. The end of chapter 279 has him pin Agito to the ground and straddle him, saying after he tortures him then Agito can "lick it" if he wants.
 * GetBackers: Anything Takuma Fudou says to Ban. After Ban ripped off Fudou's arm, Fudou becomes completely obsessed with Ban. He even keeps his own severed, rotting arm with him to constantly remind himself of Ban - which made him feel "incredible chills rising up throughout his body." And when he isn't talking to Ban, every word coming from his mouth is normally about Ban. Some notable lines include: "COME, COME, COME, COME, your eyes, your flesh, blood, your screams, GIVE YOUR BODY TO ME! MEET MY DESIRES!" "Don't die yet, Mido - I'm not finished. You still need to quench my thirst - I'm not done. Let me enjoy myself." "What was my job again? My mind goes blank whenever I see you." "The only thing that can stop this shaking... is for me to slurp up your blood!"
 * Vampire Knight: Although it's not obvious, the Kiss of the Vampire serves as a metaphor for sex. Especially with regard to the "secret relationship" between Yuuki and Zero during volumes 3 and beyond. In other words, Zero is "boning" both Yuuki and Kaname. Seen in this light, the final scene with Zero and Ichiru is quite Freudianly symbolic as well.
 * Most of anything involving Train and Creed in Black Cat. For example, in episode 5 Train smashes Creed's, er, sword with his gun and gets into a... rather compromising position on top of Creed, and Creed gets really excited and breathless. More alarming are Creed's following words (especially in the Japanese version), said very much in ecstasy, "Oh, Train, you are the best!" And in the english version he says "That's it...it's shocking..." with tears in his eyes. Train seems deeply creeped out by this response.
 * In another episode after smashing Train into a wall Creed (while holding a rose between his teeth) goes on about how his emotions running high in disappointment and anger towards Train has caused his sword to grow enormous in strength and size and he even tries to penetrate Train's body with said ridiculously phallic-looking sword.
 * Strike Witches, being an anime oriented around Fanservice and Historical In-Jokes, has a few. Most prominent would be the description of "Blitzkrieg" that is given.
 * There's a particular scene in the anime of Fruits Basket where Tohru is sick and Hatori needs to give her an injection of some sort. Shigure makes comments about the size of Hatori's needle, and Momiji says something along the lines of "You have to stop if she says it hurts!" The entire scene is just one giant innuendo.
 * Girls Bravo: Episode two features a fruit vendor crouching down and holding out a banana for Miharu to eat. She looks at it in awe, caresses it, and licks it with a blush on her face and the fruit vendor watches her do so with a blush on his face. She then proceeds to repeatedly suck on the bananas to highly suggestive camera angles making it look like she is giving the fruit vendor a blow-job. When she finishes eating the bananas she licks her lips, still with a blush on her face, and the fruit vendor is shown panting.
 * And the 12th episode features the perverted Fukuyama (guy) who's stuck in Miharu's (girl) body getting the Naughty Tentacles treatment by an octopus. At one point a tentacle rubs Miharu's boobs and another goes up her swimsuit and comes out from between her breasts, while Miharu has a blush on her face and appears to enjoy it. And Yukinari (in the big breasted body of Kirie) gets grabbed by the tentacles and we get a view of Kirie's legs stretched apart as a tentacles goes in between her legs and up her bathing suit, while Kirie struggles against the hold.
 * La Blue Girl is what you get when you apply literally this trope to a ninja action flick.
 * Kuroshitsuji has Sebastian's sex scene with Beast. He's doing it with her to get information on her father figure. And is doing the deed with her while having a nice little conversation about her father figure. Not to mention the fact that Beast also is in (unrequited) love with her elder/eldest brother figure.
 * Not as prominent in the manga, but the anime version of Ciel's subconscious definitely had some choice words for Vincent.
 * Episode 6: The line in which Sebastian says to Claude, "That white, sticky spider's thread of yours tarnished bocchan's... soul."
 * Episode 7: Claude practically having an orgasm over the taste of Ciel's blood.
 * Episode 9: Claude, while knitting, stating how he's going to "pierce Ciel's soft skin with his needle and slowly suck out his sensual soul."
 * Sebastian putting Ciel in a corset.
 * The male lead in Equation Of The Immortal is a subversion in his obsession with Sayoko as while she's damn near a clone of his recently deceased mother (though "every" female in the series does,) this saves his life as his refusal to do anything with her beyond ogle her (even when she's naked, amnesiac and flat out offering him some) due to her power.
 * Soul Eater: The longer Giriko's fight goes on with Maka, the more it descends into this. It gets to the point that you could replace "chainsaw" with "penis" and it would make just as much sense. He threatens to rape her at one point only to remember that he does not have a penis anymore.
 * Kodomo no Jikan: Rin once tried to milk a cow by getting intimate with it.
 * Axis Powers Hetalia: The animated rendition of "England is about to die" strips have the bed-ridden England with feverish eyes, fever-reddened cheeks, slurred speech, slow breathing, etc. But it can also look like he's having an orgasm. Same goes to icons.
 * D Gray Man: The whole {{spoiler|"Tyki Mikk destroyed Allen's "innocence", then made a hole in his heart and left him alone in the forest"]] sounds like he raped him. Well, It Makes Sense In Context, but is hard not to think the worse, with Tyki and his interest in Allen.
 * Dragon Ball's Cell literally drinking and eating people through his tail was disturbing enough even before the manner in which he did to it Android 18 invoked this trope. What with the constant up-and-down motion, the absolutely awful sucking noises, and 18 moaning and crying out in fear, which began in a horrible scream just before all this even started… is there any need to say what this is symbolic for?
 * While speaking of Dragon Ball, did you see the way Goku and Vegeta merged together with their Fusion Dance?
 * Star Driver: Episode 9. Sugata tells Takuto to be careful because his kendo sword is a bit longer, while holding it out in front of Takuto. Generally, much of the show could qualify, as it's about a group of teenagers trying to "break the seals" of "pure maidens" to unleash their hidden powers.
 * Goshuushou-sama Ninomiya-kun: Hinako takes this Up to Eleven in Episode 8 when she strips and forces Mayu into a swimsuit and apron while cooking ramen. Irori subsequently walks in on them and then the two of them force her into one too. Later when Shinobu shows up, the three of them force her into one as well and at this point they're all doing with way more gusto than required. To top it off just before Shungo returns home with ingredients for the ramen, they've been thinking certain thoughts about how big and hard that wooden spoon they're stirring the ramen with is. And they certainly don't spare many details on the individual stripping of each girl, mind you.
 * Brianna from Gold Digger (Season II) really screws up on one of her Mobile Manual Turret designs. Lampshaded by everyone who sees her gun in action... in the wrong place.
 * S-Cry-ed has more than its fair share. Kazuma's basic ability is forming an enormous red/flesh-colored fist, then thrusting from a jet in his back to pound into things. Ryuhou's blades and edges are all about penetrating, and we can't forget Tachibana's previous treasure balls.
 * In Outlaw Star, Gene's fear of space travel led to him being mocked as a "Space Cherry", with the usual implications for his manhood. (Ironically, even though Gene was a Handsome Lech, that was also treated as a sign of his immaturity.)
 * And, of course, there's Harry's hacking attempts...
 * Sela "Platinum Hurricane" Miranda from Basquash is more-or-less made of this trope. Her reaction of "it feels good" after she spills her milkshakes on herself in the first episode and her masochistic pleasure over Iceman pummeling her during mecha-streetball games are her most prominent character traits.
 * A meta-example: Psychoanalyst Lloyd de Mause once analyzed the entire country of Japan by looking for phallic humor in manga. He concluded that all Japanese mothers taught their sons how to masturbate. What?
 * This page of BurstAngel is not evocative of anything at all. Why would you think otherwise?
 * Pandora Hearts: See Elliot in chapter 26 here where he holds a sword at crotch level. Oz does it too. There's also Vincent's obsession with his older brother Gil and Gil's apparent feelings for Oz.
 * DNAngel: Occurs at the end of episode 20 when Mio Hio worriedly watches as Daisuke tries to put his key shaped pendant through Riku's heart shaped pendant so that they'll be bonded forever.
 * Mawaru Penguindrum: During the Seizon Senryaku sequence, something long and pink shoots from the base of the Princess of the Crystal's bear into Shouma and Kanba's.
 * The chisels owned by Yuri's dad are other examples. The less said, the better.
