Grandma, What Massive Hotness You Have!: Difference between revisions

[[File:CropTNG 2265.jpg|link=Star Trek: The Next Generation|frame|They both count.]]

 

 

For most people, their looks fade somewhat as they get older, being only appreciated by their long-term loves.

Contrast with [[I Was Quite a Looker]]. See also [[Christmas Cake]], and [[Likes Older Women]]. When adding examples, avoid people who are [[Hollywood Old]]. They must be visibly old for the trope to be in effect. Do not confuse with [[Older Than They Look]], or its extreme counterpart, [[Really Seven Hundred Years Old]], unless they look old to a normal person despite being far older than that would imply on its own. See also [[Grande Dame]]. For elderly female characters who are more noted for concupiscence than attractiveness, see [[Dirty Old Woman]].

 

 

{{examples}}

* Somewhat strangely, a subversion of this occurs in the [[Distant Finale]] of ''[[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann]]''. Almost everyone who was older after the first timeskip looks like they aged rather badly, with Rossiu and Simon getting the worst of it, and apparently this happened to Yoko as well, so much so her face is probably not seen in this segment because like her figure (which seems to have taken the ravages of time less well then expected), it's gone downhill rather badly. The only ones who seem to have been immune to this were the ones who were still young after the first timeskip and Leeron (who is far too [[Camp Gay|fabulous]] to age).

* Doctor Kureha from ''[[One Piece]]'' is close to 140 years old, and though [[Older Than They Look|her face looks like someone in their 70s]], [[Male Gaze|her body is far more attractive]]. It helps that she dresses like a teenage girl.

* ''[[Yandere Kanojo]]'' has Manabu's grandfather, who is portrayed as [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/yandere_kanojo/v03/c024.1/13.html absurdly charming.] It's also implied that he still successful bar hops for women.

 

* The ''[[Ultimate Marvel]]'' version of Aunt May.

** So is her ''[[The Spectacular Spider-Man]]'' incarnation.

* Jacob Kane, father of Kate Kane, the modern [[Batwoman]], is in at least his 50s or 60s but is still pretty good looking. It probably helps that he's a career [[Good-Looking Privates|Army]] Colonel.

 

 

** Not to mention many of Heinlein's later works where many aging characters undergo 'rejuvenation' to regain youthful bodies.

* ''Sisterhood'' series by [[Fern Michaels]]: Myra Rutledge and Countess Anne "Annie" Ryland de Silva. Both of them are in their 60s and heading on to 70s. Make no mistake, they are old enough to be your grandmother, and they are incredibly sexy! In fact, ''Weekend Warriors'' has Nikki Quinn and Barbara Rutledge commenting that Myra looks better at 60 plus years old than they do at 30 plus years old. Now that's hotness!

* In the ''[[1632]]'' series, Ruy Sanchez de Casador y Ortiz is somewhere in the vicinity of sixty, but with a better physique than many thirty-something athletes of the 20th century. His face isn't '''quite''' as handsome as Ricardo Montalban's. On top of the physical charms, he's brave, clever, and (intentionally) funny. It's not surprising anymore that an "uptime" woman who's literally young enough to be his daughter falls in love with him.

 

* Agnes Moorehead's Endora in ''[[Bewitched]]''. Creepy, yes; kooky, yes. But hot, nevertheless.

** Ironic, too, because in her youth, Moorehead usually played very dowdy and matronly characters.

** Well, she was played by [http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000079/ Raquel Welch].

* ''[[Scrubs]]'': JD has sex with a new grandmother (her daughter was a patient, for the delivery), who easily fits the category in "My Best Moment".

** President Laura Roslin

** Admiral Adama is a Foxy Grandpa. Mrrow.

* Diana Rigg as Mrs Bradley in ''[[The Mrs Bradley Mysteries]]''.

 

 

* Natasha Kerensky of the [[BattleTech]] universe may just be the epitome of this trope. She looked like ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20040908194605/http://ppc.warhawkenterprises.com/theclans/natashakerensky.jpg this]'' around the age of 80, after over 60 years in combat!

 

* Several characters in ''[[Fire Emblem]],'' the most notable being [[Sean Connery]]-double [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v139/VincentASM/Site/FE8/Dyussel.gif Duessel] and [[Metal Gear Solid|Big Boss]]-lookalike [https://web.archive.org/web/20100612061120/http://serenesforest.net/fe11/face/rolense.png Lorenz].

* In ''[[Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots]]'', Snake, due to accelerated aging, looks like he's in his 60s, and he's ''still'' a [[Stupid Sexy Flanders]]. From the same game, Big Mama {{spoiler|a.k.a. EVA}} is possibly the only woman in her 80s to pull off [[Absolute Cleavage]] without setting off massive [[Squick]] alarms.

* Mainly it's because of the art style in ''[[Castlevania]] Aria of Sorrow'', but Julius Belmont looks pretty damn fine for a 55 year old. Unfortunately, [[Art Shift|he looked like a damn Dwarf]] in ''Dawn''.

* [[The Elder Scrolls|Janus Hassildor]], Count of Skingrad, possibly qualifies, as he is over 200 years old. {{spoiler|Mind you, he's a vampire...}}

* [[Final Fantasy X|Auron]]. Going by appearance he looks 50. He's actually 35. {{spoiler|It also states that he died at 25, so that's ''including'' the time that he's been an unsent.}} Nonetheless, he certainly looks worn and craggy enough to qualify.

* In ''[[Resident Evil]] [[Resident Evil 5|5]]'', Albert Wesker is 48 years old (ten years older than he was in [[Resident Evil 1|the first game]]). And most people admit he's damn hot.

** [[Lampshaded]], as resident [[Casanova]] Zevran doesn't hesitate to flirt with her and comment on her "magical bosom". Wynne is not amused.

** [[The Alcoholic|Oghren]] and even (in a DLC) [[Adorkable|Alistair]] flirt with her, too.

* In ''[[Dragon Age II]]'', Flemeth drops the ragged old lady look that Morrigan and the Warden know her by and instead wears figure-clinging armor, has white horned hair and a generally cleaned-up face.

** Not to mention Leandra Hawke. She looks roughly fifty, but is still a looker and has a figure not far off from that of her daughter Bethany - who is 18 when the story starts.

* Completely averted in the game ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'', where the evil witch Grunty is portrayed as being an ugly, old woman, but played straight {{spoiler|when you get a [[Game Over]].}}

* By [[Memetic Mutation]] only, the "old hags" of ''[[Touhou]]'': Yukari Yakumo, Yuyuko Saigyouji, Eirin Yagokoro, Kanako Yasaka, and Byakuren Hijiri. The last of whom is pretty much canonically Fetish Fuel Unleaded, favoring a bondage-tastic [[Elegant Gothic Lolita]] dress and spells that emphasize her physical traits and beauty. Worth noting that all youkai in Touhou are [[Really Seven Hundred Years Old|drastically]] [[Older Than They Look]] unless otherwise specified.

* ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time]]'': Twinrova's [[Fusion Dance|combined form]]. Link's [[Jaw Drop|reaction]] mirrors that of many players. Especially notable given how withered-looking Koume and Kotake are separately.

* By the time ''[[Assassin's Creed: Revelations]]'' rolls around, Ezio Auditore is 52 and still swimming in fangirls both in and out of universe. Other examples from the series include [[Leonardo da Vinci]], along with both Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad and his wife Maria Thorpe.

* One of the routes in ''[[Hatoful Boyfriend]]'' suggests that Dr. Shuu is probably about the same age as Ryouta's parents... and in Ryouta's route, it's mentioned that old age is a factor in his mother's failing health. Of course, considering he's still a bird, Dr. Shuu might still be [[Mayfly-December Romance|chronologically younger than the heroine]].

 

* Mrs Maharassa from ''[[Friendly Hostility]]'', as demonstrated by [https://web.archive.org/web/20150907211800/http://www.friendlyhostility.com/d/20051226.html this strip].

* Dan's succubus grandmother, [http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_1000.php Cyra], and [[Eccentric Mentor|Fa'Lina]] from ''[[Dan and Mab's Furry Adventures]]''. Fa'Lina is drawn well enough to convincingly look old, but [[Gag Boobs|well...]] The two of them are even more of an example than most of the examples on this page since they're both multiple ''thousands'' of years old. It's a Cubi thing.

* The version of [[Public Domain Character|Diane Adams]] (Miss Masque) that appears in ''Heroes Inc'' seems to follow this trope. The creator even did a nude pin-up drawing of her as a voting incentive.

* Though she's not a main character of ''[http://www.webcomicsnation.com/johnmann/zodiac/series.php Zodiac]'', Cancer's grandmother [http://www.webcomicsnation.com/johnmann/zodiac/series.php?view=single&ID=134515 Natalia Hain] is in very good shape for her age.

* Mama Fisi from ''Carry On'' is a [[Hot Amazon]]. Her gray wig is the only sign that she could possibly have mid-20s grandchildren.

* King Urtica in ''[[Exiern]]'' despite his white hair and beard is revealed to still have a [http://www.exiern.com/?p=1933 very well muscled and defined] chest and six pack. Not to mention his "come to bed" eyes and smile.

 

* Aaliyah Soldari from the ''Welcome to Omega'' serial novel most certainly fits the bill. Two hundred years old and still beautiful enough to make men faint.

* Headmistress Elizabeth Carson of the [[Super-Hero School]] Whateley Academy in the [[Whateley Universe]]. She's in her 70s, and looks early- to mid-30s. She'd look like a movie starlet, but she's too [[Large and In Charge|authoritative]].

* The "Mature" section of [[Literotica]] takes this [[Explicit Content|interesting places]].

 

* As ''[[The Spectacular Spider-Man]]'' follows ''[[Ultimate Marvel]]'', Aunt May [[I Was Quite a Looker|is quite the looker]]. Another contributing factor may be [[Only Six Faces]], as she looks almost exactly like Gwen with gray hair and a bun.

* Same goes for the Aunt May from the ''[[Ultimate Spider-Man (animation)|Ultimate Spider-Man]]'' animated series. The fact that she's also a [[Cool Old Lady]] helps too.

* Only implied by Flowerbell about Papa Smurf in ''[[The Smurfs]]'' episode "Papa's Wedding Day" when she's trying to win his heart.
