Line 60:
* ''Happy StrikerS'', the official ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]]'' four-koma gag comic shown together with the preview manga of ''Nanoha Force'' in ''NyanType magazine'', uses this as a [[Running Gag]] with Teana, with her worrying that she had gotten a bit pudgy since [http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/6524/85958460.png she's been swamped with desk work recently]. (Note: Link may be [[NSFW]])
* Cattleya from ''[[Queen's Blade|Queens Blade]]'' has some plumpish features but most of her thickness is really just muscle. Still, it hasn't stopped detractors from labeling her as fat or obese and it certainly hasn't stop doujinshis and fanart from portraying [[BBW|her as such]].
* Tina has a mini-freak out in one chapter of ''[[Ai Yori Aoshi]]'' due to her weight. She tries to diet (which is hard when you're a [[Big Eater]] who lives in the house of a [[Supreme Chef]]. Tina looks like [
* Sakurai Rihoko from ''[[Amagami]]'' is a textbook example. Based on her character design, she'd just be around the upper-bound of average sized waistline and chubbiness.
* Mio and Mugi from ''[[K-On!]]'' tends to get worried of their weight gain at the end of the year, and are envious of Yui's high metabolism. Even Ritsu can be manipulated into drum practice with this fear, though.

* Towards the end of her [[World Wrestling Entertainment|WWE]] career, Molly Holly's gimmick became that she was overly sensitive about her huge ass. Which wasn't really huge; she had bigger curves than most of the Divas, certainly, but she wasn't large in any sense of the term. This didn't stop [[Trish Stratus]] and [[Lita]] from making fun of her, though - and they were supposed to be the [[face]]s. It was mostly played for comedy, considering Molly was a heel at the time, but a long-standing rumor is that this was the angle that eventually drove her out of the business, despite being one of the most technically sound and skilled female wrestlers WWE's ever had in their ranks. Naturally the rumor isn't true, she hated the ass angle but left because of a cancer scare.
* A similar angle started in 2009 and carried over into 2010, this time featuring Mickie James (a face) in the role of the Hollywood Pudgy gal while [[Lay Cool|Michelle McCool and Layla El]] (heels) ripped on her for being fat, even going so far as to give her the nickname "Piggie James". Unlike Molly, Mickie was okay with the angle, likely because she was casts in a sympathetic light and was released for unrelated reasons (being late for a bus in the UK).
* Kara "Cherry" Drew was fired because she was ''too fat''.
