Sometimes, [[Buxom Is Better|a nice rack]] won't do it for some people. No... Instead, they are drawn to a different part of the female anatomy. They aim a little lower...

Line 33:

* C.C. from ''[[Code Geass]]''. There are multiple shots in the series where her backside is the center of the frame, leading fans to dub her "[[Fan Nickname|Pizza Butt]]" because of it and the large amounts of [[Product Placement|Pizza Hut pizza]] she consumes on screen.

** More from the same series: Kallen, Cornelia, Suzaku and Lelouch all get at least one moment of ass focus (among the most blatant being [[media:kallensbuttsmaller.jpg|Kallen's ass taking up a good third of the frame]]).

** There's a reason why they call this show ''[[Code Geass ~~(Anime)~~/Memes|Code GeASS]]''.

* Shizuru from ''[[Godannar]]'' is frequently the [[Incredibly Lame Pun|butt]] of jokes on her derriere's size... ''[http://i146.photobucket.com/albums/r277/Robo-Demon/4c26eafa8f76a1301f35f747b953142382a.gif and with good reason, too.]''

* Mostly absent in ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]''... until the Magic World arc starts, and a focus on hips suddenly appears. The focus seems to be mostly on [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/mahou_sensei_negima/v32/c287/4.html Yuuna and her daisy dukes], and Akira, whose [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/mahou_sensei_negima/v32/c288/17.html normal standing pose] apparently involves arching her back and thrusting her butt out. See [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/mahou_sensei_negima/v32/c288/14.html panel two], [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/mahou_sensei_negima/v32/c288/9.html panel two], and [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/mahou_sensei_negima/v32/c288/8.html panel one] (spoilers).

* Cattleya from ''[[~~Queens~~ Blade]]'' has this. Sure it doesn't get as much screen time as her other [[Boobs of Steel|feature(s)]] but it's still [http://img2.gelbooru.com//samples/653/sample_8a667e9c386f4f127ef8de41efbbb87c34937275.jpg a sight to behold](NSFW)

* Fate Testarossa from ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]]'' has a rather high amount of [http://i660.photobucket.com/albums/uu328/Smokie1/fateassultimate-1.jpg?t=1276263913 shots showing her ass], which none of the other characters have. This isn't exactly helped by the clothes she wears. The fanart isn't an exception. Thus, Fate's ass became rather [[Memetic Mutation|memetic]] on a certain image board. [http://i660.photobucket.com/albums/uu328/Smokie1/fateass6-1.png?t=1276263913 A miracle of the universe, indeed.]

Line 43:

** Not to mention that there's a shot in the Island arc that focuses on her ass.

** ''Endless Eight'', hell. The [[Anime Theme Song|opening credits]] showcases her hips rather unashamedly.

* Rin Itoshiki from ''[[Sayonara Zetsubou ~~Sensei~~]]'' almost always enters the frame her back to the viewer thanks to this trope.

* Rin Itoshiki from ''[[Sayonara, Zetsubou-sensei]]'' almost always enters the frame her back to the viewer thanks to this trope.

** Well, it's partly this trope, but it's also partly [[Actor Allusion]]- Rin's voice actress also voices ''[[Shin Chan]]'', who faces the camera in the same way.

* Spain having DAT ASS in [[Axis Powers Hetalia]] has grown to [[Memetic Mutation]] heights.

Line 65:

* ''[[Eiken]]'' has two characters with glorious backsides to complement the large breasts that complement most of the club. Yuriko realizes her butt is so big she compares it to Chiharu's breasts. Teacher's butt is so big it actually bounces, and floats in water.

* ''[[Hellsing]]'': Integra is revealed to have a ''very'' nice rear in the tenth volume when [[The Coat Comes Off|she finally takes off her coat]]. Also, Alucard.

* The girl that spied on Becky in episode 3 of ''[[Pani Poni Dash]]'', of course it could have happened when she was hiding in a [[Cartoon Creature|Chicken-like creature]] [[Toothy Bird|(with teeth)]].

Line 77:

* Yenny from ''[http://www.gocomics.com/yenny yenny]'' and pretty much every other female character. Constantly mentioned on the strip. David Alvarez quite clearly loves some junk in the trunk.

* [[Spider-Woman (Comic Book)|Spider-Woman]], when drawn by Ed Benes, will always have a majority of panels that feature her focus on her rear. It seems to be a form of [[Author Appeal]] with this character particularly.

** In fact, Ed Benes seems absolutely obsessed with women's posteriors, often to the detriment of whatever series he's working on. Case in point: ''[[Justice Society of America]]'' vol. 2, where the fact that the entire cast looked like porn stars [[Distracted By the Sexy|detracted from the story]].

* ''[[All Star Batman and Robin The Boy Wonder|All Star Batman and Robin]]'' and the now infamous Vicky Vale ass shot. [[Frank Miller]]'s script for that scene is ''absolutely'' blatant about the [[Author Appeal]] of it.

* Played for laughs in ''[[Empowered]]'', where the titular character has <s>such a big behind</s>a slightly larger than average behind -- she's ashamed of it and finds it disgusting, despite how many others compliment it, some louder than others.

** Don't mock her rump, it prevented her from being kidnapped to serve in an alien overlord's harem. And then the device used to try and kidnap her (and failed because of her butt size) was used to capture Demon Wolf, who initially intended to destroy the earth... so Emp's butt ''saved the world!!!''

== Films -- Animation ==

* The classic [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JRCEU6t9jZY scene] from ''[[Peter Pan (Disney)|Peter Pan]]'' where [[Fairy Sexy|Tinkerbell]] (perhaps Disney's first-ever formal fanservice character) is ''shocked'' when she sizes up her hips via a handmirror.

* ''[[Who Framed Roger Rabbit]]'': Jessica Rabbit. Everytime she is seen from behind there is particular focus in the animation on her swerving hip movement. Of course, she also has [[Buxom Is Better|the front]] to match.

* ''[[Who Framed Roger Rabbit?]]'': Jessica Rabbit. Everytime she is seen from behind there is particular focus in the animation on her swerving hip movement. Of course, she also has [[Buxom Is Better|the front]] to match.

* Part of the reason Helen Parr/Elastigirl from ''[[The Incredibles]]'' is considered such a [[Hot Mom]] is because she has [[Hartman Hips|very shapely hips]] with a large, curvy backside to match. Though given her response in Syndrome's base, she doesn't feel the same way.

* Actually [[Invoked Trope|invoked]] by name in the ''[[Shrek]]'' Karaoke. Donkey's singing involves an accompaniment in the form of [[Crowning Moment of Funny|Dragon dancing provocatively]]. Whether this counts as straightforward [[Fetish Fuel]] is highly subjective.

Line 119:

* Deconstructed in ''Black Venus'' as a Khoi woman, Sarah Baartman, (often called the "Hottentot Venus" was put in freak shows for her Steatopygia (enlarged buttocks) and long labia. What's worse? ''THIS IS A TRUE STORY''.

* In [[The Social Network]], "Amy" (the Stanford student who sleeps with Sean Parker) only appears for about three minutes, but her scene consists almost entirely of lingering shots of her curvy butt in a pair of Stanford panties. Even though she only appears briefly, the producers apparently thought her ass shot was important enough [[Sex Sells|to include it in the trailer]].

* The ''[[~~Charlies~~ Angels]]'' movies never shy away from booty focus. So much that the cast actually spoofed it in [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3HAYuNbdaM this] video.

* The ''[[Charlie's Angels]]'' movies never shy away from booty focus. So much that the cast actually spoofed it in [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3HAYuNbdaM this] video.

* In [[Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy]], the entire Newsteam has some intense [[Perverse Sexual Lust]] for Veronica. Just to drive the point home, about half of her early scenes involve the guys gushing about her shapely butt.

* On an episode of his ''[[Late Night]]'', Conan O'Brien's sidekick Andy Richter played a clip from the [[Late Night]] gang's recent trip to the Emmy Awards. The clip featured Conan standing behind his celebrity crush Jeri Ryan, waiting to be interviewed. Much to his embarrassment, when the clip was played in slow motion, Conan could clearly be seen gazing at Jeri Ryan's [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNebijFdZxI rear end.]

* An amusing example on a show not known for humor, ''[[Law and Order]]: SVU''. When the detectives ask a witness to describe a female suspect, he can't remember her face, but describes her rear end perfectly. As they glare at him disapprovingly, the man staunchly declares, "I'm an ass man, and I make no apologies for it."

Line 149:

* ''[[Saturday Night Live]]'' put on a sketch spoofing Blackspolitation films with "Black Frankenstein." In it, the doctor creates for his monster a female companion, played by [[Nicki Minaj]]. Her ample ass becomes a running gag, and when Igor asks whether such a great butt really justifies her abrasive, abusive personality, the black doctor just looks at him like he's crazy.

* Although best known for her ample chest, one of Joan Holloway's ([[Christina Hendricks]]) early appearances in ''[[Mad Men]]'' involved her bending over a desk, with the men in the scene stunned to speechlessness by her well-rounded derriere.

* In an episode of ''[[Star Trek Enterprise]]'', a character says that Subcommander T'pol has a nice bum. Said character was drunk at the time, calling into question the veracity of his statement. However, [http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20080408153437/memoryalpha/en/images/1/1e/T%27Pol_naked.jpg/ this] infamous shot further validates this trope's relevance to T'pol.

* Having a large, curvy bottom was [[Jennifer Lopez]]'s star-making attribute when she first started putting out music videos (it's often played up in her movies too).

* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ctVmNbVu2KA "Big Booty Bitches"], a rap song about, well, [[Exactly What It Says On the Tin|big booty bitches]] that went viral on [[YouTube]] after it was featured by [[Ray William Johnson]] on his show.

* ''[[Mass Effect]] 2'' gives us Miranda, and to a lesser extent, Jacob.

** The conversation tree where Miranda requests your assistance in helping her sister Oryanna has a ridiculously well-oriented camera angle of Miranda's ass.

Line 234:

* Surprisingly enough, ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' is very prone to ass shots. There's a [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXbPAzOwGGQ video] pointing all of them out.

** Well, that camera angle seems to be a standard feature for Square-Enix cutscenes in general, with little regard for the age, gender, or attractiveness of the target. [http://www.kh2.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/noheart03.png Terra's armored form], on the other hand, quite possibly outdoes Solid Snake in terms of blatant fanservice.

* In ''[[Halo]] [[Halo Reach|Reach]]'', Kat and the female model of Noble Six both deserve a mention. There's one notable cutscene which is just a few minutes of Six walking along a cliff face, made a whole lot more interesting when using the female model. This trope also applies to Cortana, and even Miranda Keyes.

** ''Resident Evil'' just loves this trope. 5 gives us Sheva, who has a very bootylicious shot near the beginning of the game, and Darkside Chronicles gives us Steve blatantly staring at Claire's behind.

* Maytag of ''[[Flipside]]'' is the epitome of this trope. Whether constantly pointing out the size of her butt or walking up a ladder first for the sole purpose of letting someone stare at it, it was extremely noticeable until [[Cerebus Syndrome]] kicked in.

* In ''[[Out There]]'', [http://outthere.keenspot.com/d/20100816.html Sherry suggests] that she didn't so much hire Miriam ''herself'' as she hired her ''butt'' (due to its ability to draw customers).

Line 272:

* From ''[[Wapsi Square]]'', many characters believe that [http://wapsisquare.com/comic/06162004/ Shelly] fits this trope.

* All the characters in ''[[Sweet Bro and Hella Jeff]]'' have very well-defined and rounded rumps, almost always shown from angles where the rump shouldn't even be visible. Given that it's a [[Stylistic Suck|deliberately bad]] [[Show Within a Show|Webcomic Within A Webcomic]] ostensibly run by ''[[Homestuck]]'''s [[The Lancer|Lancer]], whose big brother (who he strives to emulate) apparently has a [[Fetish]] for puppet rumps, it's probably intentional parody. It also qualifies as [[They Plotted a Perfectly Good Waste|ironic]] [[Fan Disservice]], since sexualising the characters makes them ''[[Sensory Abuse|even more disturbing to look at]]''.

** Discussed in-universe: "[[Distracted By the Sexy|it was at that point when i got distracted by his moms HOT ASS…]]" "[[Male Gaze|dufe, are you scoping this bipches CHOICE ASS..]]" Both of the choice-assed characters in question actually have ''less'' defined rears than everyone else.
