Line 55:
* In the ''[[Umineko no Naku Koro ni]]'' anime, Kanon defeats [[Meaningful Name|Lucifer]] in the third arc by slashing a hole in her shirt with his [[Laser Blade]]. As Lucifer put it, ''"I've never been this ashamed?!"''. [[Don't Explain the Joke|It's funny because]] Lucifer represents the [[Seven Deadly Sins|sin]] of [[Pride]]. This doesn't happen in the original game, though, where the fight ends when Kanon gets his sword against her throat.
* In ''[[Violinist of Hameln]]'' manga, [[Complete Monster|Vocal]] rips off [[Stripperific|Ocarina]]'s bra when she is about to unload her most powerful attack on him, making her stop in the mid-move to cover herself. Considering that Vocal was lightyears beyond Ocarina's power level anyway, this was done purely for lulz.
* ''[[One Piece]]'',
** Of all the people to fall to this in ''[[One Piece]]'', it's [[Chivalrous Pervert|Sanji]]. {{spoiler|He challenges the "Substitute Queen" (or Regent if you like) of Kamabaka Kingdom to a duel, receiving passage off the island if he wins. He's forced to wear the island's traditional battle outfit (a dress), and gets embarrassed when he realizes the 'queen' is peeping at his underwear while the dress flares up as he kicks.}}
** [[Morally-Ambiguous Doctorate|Nightin]] tries to do this to Boa Hancock in the ''3D2Y'' special, using her odd fighting style (where she drinks alchemy-made concoctions and spits them at foes) to dissolve her dress and make her too embarrassed to fight. It doesn't work - Hancock is a [[Shameless Fanservice Girl]] who could care less. Nightin is also wrong that she can use another of her concoctions to resist [[Taken for Granite|Hancock's powers.]]
* In ''[[Grenadier]]'', Rushuna is prevented from doing her trademark evasive acrobatics after a stray bullet rips her panties off. She [[Invincible Hero|still wins]], though.
** In the manga she doesn't even mind, which leads to [[Censor Shadow]] later in the fight.
Line 129 ⟶ 131:
* H-Game ''[[Lightning Warrior Raidy]]'' has this whenever you completely drain out an enemy's HP.
* Nearly every foot soldier in ''[[Rocket Knight Adventures]]'' and its sequels is defeated this way.
* In ''[[Mario Is Missing]]'', Luigi defeats Bowser by [[Removable Shell| swiping his shell]] (and naturally, Bowser wears [[Goofy Print Underwear]]) and then shoving the humiliated villain off the castle walls.
 
* A key gameplay mechanic of the ''[[Akiba's Trip]]'' franchise, where stealing or destroying an opponent's clothes is the main method of combat. While [[Our Vampires Are Different|Shadow Soul or Synthister]] (in the first or second game respectively) opponents will burn to a crisp once their bodies [[Weakened by the Light|are exposed to sunlight]], if you get into a fight with a normal human they will instead run away once their clothing is removed.

Line 166 ⟶ 169:
* ''[[Kim Possible]]'': Ron Stoppable will have this happen to him ALL THE TIME. It doesn't bother him though because it happens so much. Although, the only time he will take the time to pull his pants up is when he has been completely denuded (except for his boxers), and there's a break in the action, or his pants get wrapped around his ankles, which would be an actual hindrance.
* ''[[Robot Chicken]]'' acknowledged how the [[Fetish Fuel]] of ''[[Sailor Moon]]'' can lead to an easy victory: [http://robotchicken.wikia.com/wiki/Sailor_Moon_Confronted]
* The infamous "Flight as a Feather" episode of ''[[The Mask (animation)|The Mask]]'' [[Animated Series]] had the Mayor's ex-girlfriend Cookie BaBoom, an [[Ambiguously Brown]], [[Green Eyes|green-eyed]], [[Stripperific]] [[:Category:Yandere|Yandere]] with strategically-placed suicide belts around her body and a plan to [[No Kill Like Overkill|kill herself, the Mayor, and all bystanders/witnesses]] just because the Mayor dumped her. The Mask (impersonating a bartender with a British accent) pulls the suicide belts off her (and uses the belts to make a cocktail in a blender) and she's left completely naked (albeit tastefully—it's still a kids' show) and gawked at by [[Those Two Guys|Lieutenant Kellaway and his detective partner Doyle]]. She soon flees (clad in the trenchcoat she wore earlier) in shame, though [[Fridge Logic|one has to wonder why a stripper -- of all people -- would be embarrassed over having what little clothes she is wearing taken off in public]]. It ''was'' a defeat, no question, and clothes-stripping was involved to make the antagonist helpless (and provide a [[Distracted by the Sexy|much-needed distraction]]), but the antagonist is a strip—er, "exotic dancer," so just how loosely should the word "modesty" be used in this case?
* In the "Hooky" episode of ''[[SpongeBob SquarePants]]'', SpongeBob is finally convinced to not play with hooks anymore after he gets one stuck in his pants, at which time he has to take them off. Then he has to take his ''underwear'' off, which he almost doesn't do, but then they're just ripped off anyway.
** This seems to also be SpongeBob's [[Laser-Guided Karma]] in the episode "Ripped Pants" if not just a final joke. After a whole episode of making silly "ripped pants" jokes and annoying everyone, and making them think he drowned, he rips his underwear and it falls off.
Line 176 ⟶ 179:
* Once when [[Looney Tunes|Yosemite Sam]] was supposedly an Arab -- in traditional robes -- and attacked [[Bugs Bunny]], Bugs remarked calmly, "Your slip is showing." Sam immediately stopped attacking and crouched down, doing his best to hold the hem of his robe to the ground all around him.
* In an episode of ''[[Around the World in Eighty Days (1972 TV series)|Around the World In 80 Days]]'', Fogg foils Mr. Fix by swiping his pants, causing Fix to run and hide, because being seen in his underwear is "undignified".
* In an episode of ''[[Dudley Do-Right]]'', Snidely Whiplash steals the hero's clothes while he is bathing in a stream, leaving Do-Right too humiliated to go back to the camp. ''Not'' because he is naked, but because he is ''out of uniform'', something he considered the most shameful thing of all for a Mountie. Still, Do-Right gets even with the Whiplash at the end, stealing ''his'' clothes.
