The Nudifier/Playing With

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Basic Trope: A weapon or some magical spell that is specifically designed to remove clothing.

  • Straight:
    • A blast from a wizard's spell causes Alice's clothes to come off.
    • Emperor Evulz creates an explosive compound effective only against fabrics.
  • Exaggerated:
    • The wizard's spell causes the clothes of every person in the world to come off.
    • Evulz makes a nuke-scale weapon out of it.
  • Justified: The wizard who originally created the spell needed to get rid of a cursed item that otherwise wouldn't come off.
  • Inverted:
    • The spell puts clothes on the target.
    • Clothes are literally sprayed-on, with a spray setting into a fabric to produce comic-book tight clothes on demand.
  • Subverted: The spell only removes Alice's jacket...
  • Double Subverted: ...and her underwear.
  • Parodied:
    • Every spell the wizard uses causes nudity.
    • And ages the target by fifty years.
    • Evulz threatens to shoot the Queen with a weapon containing his new "explosive" compound, demanding a ransom.
  • Deconstructed:
    • The wizard, due to his spells, is arrested for sexual harassment.
    • Evulz gets shot with live ammunition by the Queen's royal guards.
  • Reconstructed:
  • Zig Zagged: The spell is intended to be a nudifier, but just changes the material in Alice's clothes. Her clothes turn into tissue paper, and it happens to be raining where she is.
  • Averted: The spell does not cause nudity.
  • Enforced: The wizard is in an Ecchi anime.
  • Lampshaded: The wizard apologizes whenever he uses the spell. Even to villains.
  • Invoked: The wizard is a massive pervert.
  • Defied: The wizard keeps spare clothes on his person.
  • Discussed: "Gee, look at all those girls over there. If that wizard keeps using those spells, we should get our cameras."
  • Conversed: "How come there are so many spells that remove clothing? Is magic supposed to be a pervert's tool?"
  • Played For Laughs: The wizard is the main character in a Fan Service-laden Harem Anime.
  • Played For Drama: The wizard is a molester who uses his magic to rape others.
    • A victim has her Tragic Keepsake locket vaporised with the rest of her clothes.
  • Exploited: A man who has been tricked into wearing a gender-changing belt taunts the wizard in order to get it removed.
    • Lord Bane's power is drawn enteirly from his badass outfit. Hiro calls the wizard in for this express purpose before the fight.
