Kimono Fanservice: Difference between revisions

Line 29:

* ''[[Iro Otoko]]'' centres around a designer who is trying to market fashionable men's kimonos, which isn't working very well for him. Both he and others models walk around in them to advertise, invoking this trope.

* Sakaki buys Yuki a kimono in ''[[Heart Strings]]'' in order to present him as a "yakuza wife." Very much [[Fan Service]].

* In ''[[Legal Drug]]'' the main characters all wear yukata at one point and Kazahaya immediately begins complimenting the beautiful Kakei. Saiga, on the other hand, gets the opposite reaction as he looks like a nightclub worker wearing yukata and [[Sunglasses At Night]].

* In ''[[Kaze no Yukue]]'' while at a summer festival Kento starts talking about how pretty women in yukata are and his lover Akira makes a sulky comment about yukata not suiting him. This of course spawns an [[Imagine Spot]] of Akira in yukata that is actually a bit of a [[Fan Service]] [[Rule of Funny|fail]].

* ''[[Ai Yori Aoshi]]'' has the female lead always wearing a kimono. This is "justified" because her father owns the largest kimono manufacturing company, and it just wouldn't do if his daughter was seen wearing something besides a kimono made by her family.

{{quote|'''Amasawa''': "Cute?"

'''Koganei''': "[[Distracted by the Sexy|Yeah]]...I mean NO!" }}

* One of the scenes in a ''[[Code Geass]]'' game have the mainly European cast wearing kimonos. Hilariously, it even included the [[Meganekko]] who has... ''problems'' with the Japanese.

* Yumi from [[Rurouni Kenshin]] wears an off-the-shoulders kimono that should not logically stay up. She is also a former prostitute.

* ''[[Sayonara, Zetsubou-sensei]]'' makes reference to the fact that a kimono would traditionally be worn without underwear, and the whole show is a massive example of type A, thriving in [[Awesome Anachronistic Apparel]].

Line 58:

* [[Shakugan no Shana|Shana]], a world-innocent [[Tsundere]], sports a kimono during some festival episodes, and almost everyone both in and out-universe agree she's cute wearing it.

* In ''[[Gosick]]'' Kujo wears a men's kimono for an entire episode. A rare male example.

* In ''[[~~Mai~~-HiME]]'', after Shizuru rescues Natsuki from Nao, she's seen wearing a purple kimono and gives Natsuki a light blue one. Shizuru continues wearing the kimono for most of her [[Psycho Lesbian]] rampage, but it eventually gets torn in places, and she changes back into her [[Student Council President]] [[Custom Uniform|uniform]] by the time Natsuki confronts her.

* In ''[[My-HiME]]'', after Shizuru rescues Natsuki from Nao, she's seen wearing a purple kimono and gives Natsuki a light blue one. Shizuru continues wearing the kimono for most of her [[Psycho Lesbian]] rampage, but it eventually gets torn in places, and she changes back into her [[Student Council President]] [[Custom Uniform|uniform]] by the time Natsuki confronts her.
