{{quote|''"This tickle torture isn't funny!"''|'''Luigi''' being subjected to this, ''[[Super Mario Bros Super Show]]''}}
Line 20:
* Used in ''[[To Love Ru]]'' by a [[Man-Eating Plant]]. Since it's To Love Ru, it's purely for [[Fan Service]].
* Happens to Sasami in the second OVA and an episode of the [[Pretty Sammy]] TV series.
* [[
** He is not so lucky in Dragon Ball GT when he is tickled out of the ring during the Junoir Division [[Born Lucky|by a nerd]]. (Thanks in part to a distraction by Vegeta.)
** He was also tickle tortured by an old hag in hell after she attempted to cook him.
Line 28:
* In ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'', Asuna got the tickle treatment in the nude from Fate who could make water turn into a bunch of arms. {{spoiler|It's later revealed that the only thing stopping him from ripping her to pieces was Asuna's magic-cancelling ability.}}
** Later on, most of class 3-A does this to Chao.
* Happens in the ''[[Ah!

* [[Shinryaku! Ika Musume|Ika Musume]] discovers this in a chapter of the manga (which was adapted into an anime sub-episode), and goes on a tickling spree with everyone she meets. Naturally, she decides to use it to make Chizuru die of laughter. Chizuru [[Beware the Nice Ones|being who she is]], though, means [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/shinryaku_ika_musume/v05/c081/7.html annihilation] [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/shinryaku_ika_musume/v05/c081/8.html ensues.] (Presumably, the episodes are not in chronological order, as a couple of earlier episodes show her tickling Eiko both as revenge and to convince her to become her servant, and on the four alien-obsessed scientists to find out why they wanted a strand of Chizuru's hair.)
* When the Saigoku Three show up and finish their introduction, [[Sengoku Otome|Nobunaga]] easily defeats them and ties them up. To find out where the [[Dismantled MacGuffin]] is, Hideyoshi does this to each of them. They return the favor later in the episode.
* In [[Maburaho]], Elizabeth does this to Yuna. You can't see what's happening, though, and she does it in such a dramatic and over-the-top fashion that Kazuki assumes it's ''actual'' torture.

* A type of monster known as Night Gaunts in Lovecraft's works are said to torture people by carrying them off into the lower reaches of the Dreamlands and tickling them with their tails and grotesque claws. In the Call of Cthulhu tabletop game, this is described to be a very humiliating experience.
* Played deadly seriously (literally so) in the short story "The Screaming Laugh" by Cornell Woolrich.
Line 52:
== [[Live Action TV]] ==
* An episode of ''[[Monster Squad]]'' (the 1976 live-action kids' series, starring Fred Grandy and Henry Polic II) had a villain who used giant feathers in an attempt to tickle Our Heroes to their doom. It was as silly as it sounds.

* On ''[[The Office]]'', Darryl [[Sarcasm Mode|further educates]] Michael on the ways of the street by explaining that gangs often duel using a technique called Fluffy Fingers, where members of each gang tickle one another to the point of capitulation.
* An episode of ''[[Life
== [[Video Games]] ==
* In ''[[
* In just one of many blatant and slightly creepy attempts at [[Fan Service]] in ''[[Rumble Roses]]'', one ringside weapon is a long stick with a cartoony hand on one end that is used to tickle an opponent. It doesn't hurt them, but causes their humiliation meter to rapidly shoot up.
* In ''[[Sly Cooper

* A fox gets tickled as punishment in two scenes in an episode of the ''[[Redwall]]'' series.

* Olive Oyl gets tickled on two separate occasions in the ''[[Popeye]]'' cartoon.
* Played for laughs in the ''[[Arthur (
* Something similar to this happened in ''[[Bobby's World]]''. He thought he would be able to use his new found Martial Arts skills to bully his classmates.
* In an episode of ''[[Courage the Cowardly Dog]]'' Muriel is on the receiving end of this trope when Dr. Le Quack interrogates her to tell him where her valuables are while under the ruse of being a psychologist trying to help her get her memory back after a blow to the head gave her amnesia.
