Line 17:
** Oddly enough, [[Executive Meddling|the censored version]] of the [[Anime]] does not use shadows when avoiding [[Nipple-and-Dimed|nipples]] and [[Panty Shot|Panty Shots]], but ridiculously obvious zooms, scenes cut clean out, and nice views of the scenery or sky.
* ''[[Strike Witches]] 2''
* ''[[QueensQueen's Blade]]''
* ''[[Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni (Visual Novel)|Higurashi no Naku Koro Nini]]'': Averted in one of the OVAs.
** Lampshaded in [[Gag Dub|Higurashi Parody Fandub]] 8.
{{quote| '''Rena:''' "Cause if you do, you'll [[Disproportionate Retribution|be killed.]] [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking|And then you'll be censored]]!}}
* ''[[Umineko no Naku Koro Ni (Visual Novel)|Umineko no Naku Koro Nini]]''
* ''[[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann (Anime)|Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann]]''. During the prison fight episode risky angles were covered by shadows.
* ''[[Black Cat (Mangamanga)|Black Cat]]'' does it, when Creed is naked and having nanomachine treatment to make him immortal. The camera pans extremely low, but his crotch is blacked out by the shadow of some of the machinery.
* ''[[Kaiji]]'' uses these in {{spoiler|the losers' room on the Espoir}}.
* ''[[Change 123]]'': An apparently in-world example [http://citymanga.com/change_123/chapter-4/23/ here.]
* ''[[Deadman Wonderland]]'' uses it to hide [[Gorn]].
* ''[[Soul Eater]]'' puts a shadow under {{spoiler|Giant!Asura}}'s robes.
* ''[[Blood- C]]'' does a number of shadows during incredibly violent scenes.
== [[Comics]] ==
* In the [[Comic Book]] version of ''[[Anita Blake]]'', a wererat's genitals are covered this way.
Line 36:
* In an early issue of ''[[The Incredible Hulk]]'', Betty Ross is transformed into the Harpy sans culottes, with her breasts and genitals hidden by shadows.
* The ''[[Mercy Thompson]]: Homecoming'' comic uses anything — even shadows — to cover up Mercy's breasts and genitals.
* This happens quite frequently in [[Hellboy (Comic Bookcomics)|Hellboy]] with Hecate, the Baba Yaga, and the occasional demon. Partially justified thanks to Mignola's black-on-white [[Chiaroscuro]] art style. Sometimes Mignola chooses to show nipples, so it must be a stylistic choice.
* Frequently happens to [[Wolverine]] when he ends up naked, especially in Weapon X flashbacks.
 
== [[Live Action TV]] ==
* ''[[Star Trek: theThe Next Generation]]'' episode "Chain of Command": Picard would show his butt, and have <s>five lights</s> FOUR LIGHTS cast shadows, preventing anything from being seen.
 
== [[Video Games]] ==
* The "Anubis" enemy in the [[First-Person Shooter]] ''PowerSlave'' (''Exhumed'' in Europe) has shadows under his kilt. Good thing too, because he does not know how to sit politely.
* The trophies depicting [[Super Mario Bros (Franchise).|Peach, Daisy,]] and [[The Legend of Zelda (Franchise)|Zelda]] (their bases are translucent) from ''[[Super Smash Bros (Video Game)|Super Smash Bros]] Brawl'' actually did this to avoid showing a potential [[Panty Shot]].
 
== [[Web Comics]] ==
* Used in ''[[The Adventures of Dr. McNinja (Webcomic)|The Adventures of Dr. McNinja]]'' to cover for a catastrophic failure of [[Magic Pants]] [http://drmcninja.com/archives/comic/13p39 here.]
* Used in ''[[Erfworld]]'' to [http://www.erfworld.com/book-1-archive/?px=%2F036.jpg discreetly depict] the aftermath of Wanda's [[Fetish Fuel|sexually-charged]] torture and interrogation of Jillian.
 
== [[Web Original]] ==
* [[Atop the Fourth Wall (Web Video)|Linkara]] [[Hanging a Lampshade|laughed]] at such shadow in Hardcore Station #1 for being so small that one could conclude that "Space Stalin has a tiny penis."
 
== [[Western Animation]] ==
