Line 33:
* In ''[[Seitokai Yakuindomo]]'', the female characters wear tartan skirts and the pattern is either angled in an odd way during a still-shot, or doesn't move when the character does. With the ED "Aoi Haru", it is more obvious.
* The ''[[Death Note]]'' manga took some very noticeable shortcuts when depicting tartan or striped clothes.
* Averted in ''[[
* Used in chapter 17 of ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha ViVid|Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha Vi Vid]]'' for Vivio's and Agito's skirts.
* In ''[[Area no Kishi]]'', the skirts for the girls' school uniform suffers from this. It's especially noticeable when the focus is on the potential love interest, Six.
* ''[[MM!]]'' The ending has this in their skirts and ties same pattern tartan, but the ties are angled. Watching them jump and turn around is very odd since the tartan only moves vertically.
* Averted in ''[[Otoyomegatari]]''. Not only does the [[Kaoru Mori|author]] draw the patterns on their everything (dresses, fabrics, etc.), she draws it slightly differently between different panels depending on the angle you're supposed to be looking at, even on the same page.
* ''[[Persona 4: The Animation]]'' has this for school uniforms and Naoto's tartan pants. The school uniforms are probably this way because there are upwards of 15 students in a shot at times, and drawing all that houndstooth would be [[Sarcasm Mode|fun]].
* The ''[[Chihayafuru]]'' opening sequence.
* In ''[[Puella Magi Madoka Magica]]'', there's a blink-and-you'll-miss-it example with Sayaka's bunny bedspread in episode 6.
* ''[[Ojamajo Doremi]]'' has this during the second ending for the Dokkan! season, using floral patterns for the girls and other patterns for the boys that appear.
Line 47:
* Scott McCloud's [[Author Avatar]] character in his ''[[Understanding Comics]]'' series.
* ''[[Checkerboard Nightmare]]''.
* Roger Mellie, and sometimes other characters, in the British adult comic Viz can usually be seen sporting an Unmoving Horizontally-lined jacket.
* Any character with a tartan or vertically-lined shirt in the early years of ''[[Modesty Blaise (comic strip)|Modesty Blaise]]'' (when the otherwise excellent Jim Holdaway was the artist).
* In ''[[Calvin and Hobbes]]'', whenever Calvin's mother wore tartan, it acted like this.
Line 68:
When things are odd or things are quaint
But seeing things you know that ain't
[[Combining Mecha|Can certainly give you an awful fright]]
[[Nightmare Face|What a sight!]] }}
* ''[[The Thief and the Cobbler]]:'' Pretty much any scene with tiled floors. This is due to the style being based on ancient Persian miniature paintings, which did not have correct perspective. Averted whenever the animators [[Doing It for the Art|decided to rotate the scene around]]. [http://thethief1.blogspot.com/2008/07/dying-messenger-part-2.html This actually caused some problems] with the scene where a messenger rides across a courtyard, with a panning camera.
Line 103:
== Western Animation ==
* Averted in Rocko's Modern Life; specially Rocko's complicated triangle shirt. The creator has playfully mentioned in interviews that it most have drove the animation team nuts.
* The chalk speckles in ''[[
* The tartan coat worn by Tommy from "The Off-Beats" on ''[[
** The cartoon did that with several other materials, too. September disguises himself as "the President", complete with wig with unmoving hair texture.
* ''[[Crocadoo]]'' has Rufus Hardacre's distinctive polka-dotted shirt, as well as most other clothing from the series.
Line 117:
* At least one ''[[Looney Tunes]]'' short featured Bugs Bunny tangling with a gameshow host in a tartan jacket.
* The animated adaptation of the ''[[Berenstain Bears]]'' avoided this by simply removing the patterns. Papa's tartan and Mama and Sister's Polka Dots are all taken out in favour of solid colours.
* Dad's trousers from ''[[Cow and Chicken]]'' were like this, except in striped green trousers.
* A couple of early computer-animated (no, not ''that'' kind of computer-animated; imagine an MS-Paint drawing come to life) spots on ''Sesame Street'' used this.
* The ''[[Mr. Bean]]'' cartoon used this on many objects, including bedsheets.
Line 125:
* The Cheshire Cat in ''[[Care Bears|Care Bears In Wonderland]]'' constantly changes patterns, and ''all of them'' are this.
* In ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'', the Ursa Major's pelt is an Unmoving Star Field. While Princess Celestia's mane also flows, the colors on her mane don't flow the same way. And on one occasion, the colours on Rainbow Dash's tail continue to curve smoothly even where the end of the tail is ruffled into a zigzag.
* In '' ''[[Ed, Edd 'n' Eddy]]'''s Big Picture Show'', Eddy's brother's shirt does this. So does Jimmy and Plank's outfits in the school picture episode.
* Angus Dagnabbit (and later his ghost) in ''[[Mad Jack the Pirate]]'' wore unmoving tartan kilts.
