The term was coined by fans some time before 1993 and makes reference to the anime production [[Studio Gainax]], many of whose earlier releases made use of this particular variety of [[Fan Service]].

== The [[Trope Maker]] ==
* The ''very first'' Gainax Bounce appeared at approximately 3 minutes and 20 seconds into the legendary [https://youtu.be/-840keiiFDE?t=3m19s Daicon IV opening animation], created in 1983 by the group of fans who would then go on to become [[Studio Gainax]]. See [[wikipedia:Daicon III and IV Opening Animations|Wikipedia]] or [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHD3dguz9is this video] for more info on the Daicon openings.

** Gainaxing is a signature of Gravion's creator, Masami Obari, present in his works, including the Fatal Fury anime adaptions and Voltage Fighter Gowcaizer, in which it's put to the utmost extreme.
