Line 24:
* When [[Yotsubato|Yotsuba!!]] sees someone in a fundoshi at the town festival, she reacts as a five-year-old probably would: "BUTT!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! BUTT!!!"
* In the ''[[Ouran High School Host Club]]'' manga, Tamaki must wear one of these if his team loses the sports festival. {{spoiler|They do. He does}}
* Featured often in ''[[Gintama]]'' for comedic effect.
* Pesche from ''[[Bleach]]''
* Another female example: Matabei Gotou from ''[[Hyakka Ryouran Samurai Girls]]'' wears this. In her case, it's definitely [[Fan Service]]... (She's not even wearing a skirt or anything over it!).
Line 45:
== Film ==
* Ashitaka from ''[[Princess Mononoke]]'' has a fundoshi as underwear.
* Many of [[Akira Kurosawa]]'s movies, being set in medieval Japan, feature men wearing this (and often not much else).
* In ''[[Gung Ho]]'', the Japanese plant managers are shown swimming in a river wearing fundoshi. In a version bowdlerized for cable TV, these were digitally retouched to look more like conventional swimsuits when seen from behind.
Line 58:
* Mizoguchi's appearance from ''[[King of Fighters]]: Maximum Impact 2 Regulation A'', his alternate costume is nothing but a fundoshi tied around him.
* The Ruan Brothers from ''Outlaws of the Lost Dynasty'' all share the same muscled physique with a rokushaku fundoshi as their base sprite. The only difference is that they put on different colored loincloth and various heads.
* One of [[The One Guy|Zafira's]] [[And Your Reward Is Clothes|unlockable swimsuits]] in ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha
* ''[[Marvel vs. Capcom 2]]'': Jin's taunt and anti-air animation show he's not afraid to be traditional in more than one way.
Line 67:
== Real Life ==
* This is considered traditional in [[Japan]] so expect to see it at almost any culture festival that involves men with special outfits. Special [[Rated "M" for Manly|manliness]] points go to Hokkaidō men who wear only this ''in the snow'' and the Kurama hi-matsuri (fire festival), where men do this while holding '''20 foot long torches''' on their shoulders.
* Also a pride point for many Yakuza, who loudly proclaim their traditionalist ways. Anytime they pose for their elaborate back tattoos ([[wikipedia:Irezumi|irezumi]]), there is about a 99% chance that they will do it in Fundoshi.
