Playboy Bunny: Difference between revisions

Line 30:
* In early ''[[Dragon Ball]]'', Bulma is given a Playboy Bunny outfit by [[Lovable Sex Maniac|Oolong]], as it's the only outfit he owns that will fit her (and he was up all night guarding their car with a shotgun instead of doing her laundry). She even lampshades this in the Funimation dub when these clothes make her look like the [[Easter Bunny]] ("[[What Is This, X?|What is this, Easter?!]]"). It becomes a plot point when she is subsequently thought to be part of a group of bandits which are identified by the fake bunny ears they wear (the bandit leader being an anthropomorphic rabbit).
* In one episode of ''[[Kimagure Orange Road]]'', Kyōsuke dreams of a submissive Madoka greeting him in the morning while wearing a Playboy Bunny outfit. Yeah, [[Freud Was Right]].
* ''[[Haruhi Suzumiya]]'': Mikuru Asahina, of course. And Haruhi a few times, most notably in the iconic episode "Live Alive". There's also a picture with [http://www.animeyume.com/suzumiya_haruhi/tmohs_bunny_girl.jpg all the girls wearing Bunny outfits!]{{broken link}} Even Kyon's little sister (either [[Squick]] or adorable as hell).
** There are even figurines of the girls in bunny outfits.
** The picture of the females of ''Suzumiya Haruhi'' as bunny girls ended up as a poster on Konata's wall in ''[[Lucky Star]]'' ... which lead to it eventually [https://wcloudxkumo.files.wordpress.com/2008/02/3651-bunny_suit-hiiragi_kagami-hooragi_tsukasa-izumi_konata-lucky_star-takara_miyuki.jpg being spoofed] featuring the girls of ''[[Lucky Star]]''. ([http://images6.fanpop.com/image/answers/3215000/3215965_1366511952435.1res_450_330.jpg Here's a side-by-side comparison of the original and the homage].)
Line 37:
* ''[[Dominion Tank Police]]'': [[Shorttank]] Leona Ozaki surprisingly wears a Playboy Bunny outfit in the second OVA. For a [[Perp Sweating]] of all things. A [[Game Show]]-style Perp Sweating involving throwing knives and a ''hand grenade'', mind you...
* ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'' [http://simplicitybc2000.deviantart.com/art/quot-Rabbit-Season-quot-40845633 has a few of these]:
** When Negi discovers Chisame Hasegawa cosplaying as "Chiu", she's in a Bunny Girl outfit. And he drags her outside in front of the class, to her great embarrassment. Of course, it gets worse when the costume [[Clothing Damage|doesn't survive]] a [[Sneeze of Doom|sneezing...]].
** Another time, Akira was made to wear a more classic-style costume when the girls were considering a [[Cosplay Cafe]] for the school festival.
** During the festival itself, Setsuna wears an outfit that kind of resembles a cross between this and a mascot-style fursuit.
Line 48:
* ''[[Soukou no Strain]]'': [[Fan Girl|Lavinia's]] ill-fated plans to seduce [[The Stoic|Sara]] at one point included wearing such an outfit. It did not work.
* At one point of ''[[Peach Girl]]'', Sai wears one of these to spy on Momo being escorted to a party by her boyfriend's brother.
* Bunny-san of ''[[Miyuki-chan in Wonderland|Miyuki Chan in Wonderland]]'' isn't an anthropomorphic rabbit, unlike in [[Lewis Carroll]]'s ''[[Alice in Wonderland|Alice's Adventures in Wonderland]]'', but a lady wearing this costume.
* Even when otherwise irrelevant for the series (that is, no Bunny outfit ever appears in the run of the show), it isn't uncommon for some official art to put the female characters in such costumes, just for the heck of it. [[media:BunnyGirls TenchiMuyo 7732.jpg|Here is an example]] with the girls from ''[[Tenchi Muyo!|Tenchi Muyo]]''
** Mihoshi does dress as a Playboy Bunny in the ''No Need for Tenchi!'' manga, as part of a ploy to distract a corrupt planetary regent.
** One version of Galaxy Police uniforms has a [[Do-Anything Robot|Do-Anything Gizmo]] that the poor officer has to hang from their back pocket. Plus a [[Nice Hat]]. Just to make Mihoshi look like a [[Petting Zoo People|Bunny Girl]].
* Subverted in the ''[[Girls Bravo]]'' manga, although otherwise rife with [[Fan Service]]. [[Lovable Sex Maniac|Fukuyama]] tricks the girls into a perverted game, having them put on some fetishistic costumes. And the final loser would have to walk around the block in said embarrassing clothes. But in the end, ''he'''s the one to lose, and ends up outside wearing a Bunny outfit. He's [[Too Kinky to Torture|enough of a weirdo to enjoy this, though]].
* [[Misty May]] from ''[[Otaku no Video|Otakuno Video]]''. Her Bunny costume may be non-standard, with [[Opera Gloves]] and [[Bare Your Midriff|an exposed midriff]], but still fits the trope.
* ''[[Kanokon]]'' anime, episode 4: Chizuru puts on a Bunny Girl outfit to try to attract Kouta, but soon finds that the costume does not come off, and is also a demon capable of controlling clothing. Said demon soon proceeds to use Chizuru's body to fly through the school [[Instant Cosplay Surprise|changing the clothes of every girl along the way]], gaining control of their outfits as well. (Some costumes include [[Miko|Shrine Maiden]], Policewoman, Nun, and China Girl.) Later on, the demon uses this as a counter to the attack from a wind user by destroying the clothing of every girl but Chizuru, since the demon is Chizuru's outfit.
* Parodied in the ''[[School Rumble]]'' anime. Yakumo's bunny outfit is actually an oversized rabbit costume.
Line 70:
* ''[[To LOVE-Ru]]''
** When Rito first suggested Lala should dress to fit in with Earthpeople, she had Peke transform—and kept picking inappropriate garb to copy: a businessman's clothing, a policewoman's uniform, a Bunny.... ''That'' one led Rito to wonder in shock where she'd seen it.
** At the start of the [[RPG Episode|"Trouble Quest" arc]], the Guild assigning "adventurers" their [[Character Class]] had a [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/to_love_ru/v11/c094/6.html staff of Bunnies]—well — well, actually, multiple copies of one Bunny (there was also a Bunny on the sign outside the door). Then, when Yami shows up, she's been dressed as a Bunny as part of her character class. Yami, who ''hates'' anything [[Ecchi]]....
* In ''[[One Piece]]'', this is the most common means of dress for revolutionary second-in-command Emporio Ivankov's people, whether male or female. Emporio also comes from an island populated entirely by men dressed up as Playboy Bunnies. Carrot is a literal Bunny Girl, being a [[Petting Zoo People]] rabbit with a [[Fanservice]]-ish look.)
* In ''[[Great Teacher Onizuka]]'', the naive but kind-hearted Tomoko Nomura is talked by Onizuka into putting on such an outfit. He then leaves her in a crowded street without telling her what he has in mind. When she gets picked up by dodgy-looking guys, she thinks Onizuka wants her to become a porn actress. She's specifically cosplaying the character [[Cutey Honey]] (complete with hairstyle), whose outfit may have been influenced by this trope.
* All of the girls from ''[[Neko-de Gomen!|Neko De Gomen]]'' dress up in the outfit for a student cafe in chapter 9.
* In ''[[ToA AruCertain Majutsu noMagical Index]]'', this is Shiage Hamazura's fetish.
* In ''[[Maicching Machiko-sensei|Maicchingu Machiko Sensei]]'', the title character is shown in a bunny suit during the closing credits among other [[Fan Service]] outfits. It says something when this series is so chalk-full of fanservice that they had to cram a playboy bunny suit in during the credits for little reason.
* Hinata Hyuga from ''[[Naruto]]'' in a recent Omake.
* Two of these appear in the background during the [[Russian Roulette]] scene with Boma and Clair in ''[[Heat Guy J]]''.
