'''Please do not add examples of typical [[Fan Service]] that just happens to use a kimono (the kimono falling off or open, kimono used in the same way as a normal robe, etc) to this page. They should go on the [[Fan Service]] page.'''

Line 49:

* This trope played out in at least three episodes of ''[[Maicchingu Machiko Sensei]]''. One episode featured the main character acting in a historical drama,another was set during the Lunar New Year, and the third took place during a festival. In keeping with the tradition of the anime, she lost her kimono everytime.

* Ryougi Shiki of ''[[Kara no Kyoukai]]'' hardly ever wears anything else. [[Lady of War|And she kicks lots of ass, too.]]

* [[Tear Jerker|Cruelly and dramatically]] subverted in [[Oniisama E]]. During a flashback, we see {{spoiler|Kaoru Orihara}} wearing a yukata during a date with her boyfriend {{spoiler|Takehiko Henmi}}, and she strips naked in front of him... {{spoiler|to show him her physical scars after her [[Ill Girl|breast cancer]] caused her to have a mastectomy. She then breaks up with him, because [[Don't You Dare Pity Me|she doesn't want to be a load to her loved ones]].}}

* Often occurs in festival episodes for the ''[[Pretty Cure]]'' series. May count more as a Type B than A, as the Cures often squeal about how a certain teammate looks good in a yukata.

* ''[[Ranma One Half]]'': Akane Tendo is forced into one of these in the manga. Due to [[Belligerent Sexual Tension|the relationship between her and Ranma Saotome]], Ranma lampshades this trope in a way that makes it a complimentary put-down.

* Tsuruya fits an extreme version of [[Costume Porn|Type A]] during one chapter of [[Kyon Big Damn Hero (Fanfic)|Kyon Big Damn Hero]]. Since she wears a kimono much of the time at home, [[Going Commando|Type B]] is likely to be in effect, too.
