Comedic Underwear Exposure

Revision as of 12:48, 2 June 2017 by Looney Toons (talk | contribs) (added example implied by page image)

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.

Not even Kamen Riders are immune to this trope.
"I see London! I see France! I see [Insert Name Here]'s underpants!"

Can be prevented by Going Commando.

Examples of Comedic Underwear Exposure include:

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.
