Reluctant Fanservice Girl Narrator

Straight: Alice is a prude who is prone to Clothing Damage, which is also why her most common losses are Defeat by Modesty. Exaggerated: Alice spends the entire series stripped naked after being hit by The Nudifier in her first scene. She spends the the of the series constantly trying to cover herself or get clothes, only to always fail. She remains naked in the Dance Party Ending. Every episode, Alice ends up stripped naked and exposed in front of a crowd or having nude photos and videos of her uploaded online. The show is about a Villain Protagonist who publicly strips Alice naked once per episode. Downplayed: Alice gets a little bit of Clothing Damage in a fight where most of her teammates also do. Alice is often stripped, but only when she is on her own and always manages to cover herself up in time. Nobody actually sees her naked. Alice is often stripped, but always manages to get herself covered up before anyone sees too much of her. Alice is often stripped, but those around her are usually more embarrassed than she is. Alice’s reaction is less Naked Freak-Out and more as though she spilt something on herself or her car got towed. Alice is an exhibitionist who is fine with being naked in front of adults. However, bad luck always makes her accidentally end up naked next to kids. Justified: Superheroine Alice is Nigh-Invulnerable (and uses it to take hits for her teammates or civilians). (Un)fortunately, her superhero costume is not so durable. Alice has issues with her body and actively avoids showing almoste any skin. Alice finds herself having to defend her honour in duels — but to avoid any waste of life, the duelling code of the setting demands Clothing Damage only, with the aim of Defeat by Modesty, ensuring the loser is appropriately shamed. Alice is a plain old prude. She'd prefer wearing some modest clothing. Alice has no real problem with public nudity; it’s the “involuntary” part that upsets her. Inverted: Alice hates clothing and walks about everywhere naked, but circumstances conspire to clothe her. Alice is The Prankster and most of her pranks involve publicly stripping men and women naked. Gender-Inverted: Bob, the famously Sharp-Dressed Man in the cast, who explains that he feels naked if he's wearing anything less, finds himself a frequent victim of Clothing Damage. Subverted: Alice has appeared to be a prude for most of the series, then dresses up in a Stripperific outfit to go to a party, making the audience question how accidental her earlier immodesty was. The notoriously shy Alice gets stripped... and doesn't seem to be bothered by it at all. Double Subverted: Alice's party outfit was suggested and prepared by her friend, at whom she is now very annoyed. It was an act in order to save face: Alice blushes all the way and is very thankful when the opportunity to get dressed comes up. Parodied: Alice dresses up in multi-layered winter clothing and body armour for her group's next fight. And ends up in only a bra and panties by the end of it. Emperor Evulz' latest evil scheme is to get Alice scantily clad. Just like the last three before it. Alice is a member of a Freudian Trio alongside Carol and Denise. She's the only one who hates being naked, and is the only one who DOES end up naked, much to the other two's disappointment. Alice is completely naked throughout the entire series and mortified over it. However, she can very well wear clothes if she wants to but rejects any clothes or attempts to clothe her for unexplained reasons. Alice is seen naked in the Group Picture Ending. Alice is also naked in marketing character photos, posters and trailers. Zig-Zagged: Alice has ended up naked or near-naked one time too many and finally just throws her arms in the air while standing in nothing but some underwear. Just then, a bus full of nuns and boy scouts driven by her father passes by, making her rethink her sudden lack of modesty. She quickly covers herself and runs away. Alice is an exhibitionist but hates herself for it and is very much closeted. When she's inevitably stripped, she flip-flops between having a Naked Freak-Out, trying to act natural, and smiling to herself like a loon while fanning herself and blushing furiously. All In-Universe Fanservice Alice gives is indeed involuntary, but the work also depicts her home life and shows her in various states of undress when nobody else is around. Averted: Nobody gets forced into an uncomfortable clothing situation. Enforced: "We need more Fanservice, but we can't have the viewers seeing any of our female characters as sluts. Hey, I know! Let's add a few Contrived Coincidences!" Lampshaded: "Oh, come on! Why, why, why is it always my shirt?!" "Oh not this again! Stop staring!" Invoked: The Nudifier. Exploited: Defeat by Modesty. An evil witch curses Alice to be permanently naked, promising to lift the curse if Alice does evil deeds for her. Defied: Alice gets a custom superhero costume almost as resilient as she is. Alice see Evulz's anti-pants laser on the horizon and immediately breaks and runs. Alice gets stripped so many times and seen naked by so many people that she gives up on playing modest and accepts her nudity as a part of her she should not be ashamed of. Discussed: "And Alice gets blasted again. Binoculars, boys!" Conversed: "Of course, Alice gets hit with the raygun..." "Who else? Someone who might get an ugly burn?" Implied: Alice is very accident-prone and always breaks things. Someone mentions that she should go to the beach since there is nothing that can be broken there. She replies that, somehow, she always finds a way to "break" her bathing suit and she is tired of the men hovering around, waiting for her to have another accident. Deconstructed: Alice goes bankrupt because she has to keep buying new clothes every time they get ripped up. Being constantly forced to wear revealing outfits has done a serious number on Alice's self-esteem. Alice Took a Level in Jerkass because of her constant humiliation and lashes out at anyone who sees her. This in turn reduces sympathy for her and people are even more likely to jeer at her during her malfunctions than help her, angering her further. Alice always seems to end up in a situation that results in her becoming naked, no matter how much she tries. She eventually grows desensitized to her constant nakedness and just walks around naked so that she never worries about losing her clothes again. Reconstructed: She eventually gets her clothes insured so she no longer has to worry about clothing damage. Alice is supported by her friends and family, who make sure to cover her up whenever she is stripped and fight any Jerkass and pervert who bullies or harasses her. The onlookers tolerate Alice’s behaviour due to the stress she is often under, and she learns to keep control of her anger. Played for Laughs: Alice is prone to Clothing Damage and has a tattoo reading "not again!" on her cleavage or derrière. The camera always showcases it. Alice's insecurity about Clothing Damage is used to Invoked the Naked People Are Funny trope. Alice is a Straw Feminist Asshole Victim. Played for Drama: Alice eventually develops severe self-esteem issues due to the multiple times she is disrobed and humiliated, so she has to seek therapy. Alice is a Sex Slave of Evulz, who takes delight in exposing her. Alice is heavily bullied and slut-shamed by her peers. Alice has a Heroic BSoD over being stripped. After being stripped in public, Alice covers herself up and bursts into tears, making her bully have a Heel Realization. Alice gives a "The Reason You Suck" Speech to the other characters and the audience for their Lack of Empathy and cruelty to deriving joy from a woman’s emotional distress. Alice is the only female character in her work to ever get stripped against her will due to the curse on her signalling only her out as a Cosmic Plaything. She learns that if she casts a spell to get rid of the curse, other women and girls will end up stripped. She has to choose whether to endanger fellow women or keep serving her humiliating, thankless role. Alice attempts or is Driven to Suicide over her humiliation. Played for Horror: Alice is prone to Clothing Damage and has a Nightmare Fuel tattoo somewhere on her body, which the camera always shows. Evulz' clothing-destroying weapon works too well and strips away Alice's human form too, revealing she's an Eldritch Abomination. Alice is so sensitive that she turns murderously violent when stripped (or humiliated in other ways) and lashes out at anyone unlucky enough to be near her. Alice is trapped in an And I Must Scream situation, forced to spend eternity in a time loop dancing naked in front of a jeering crowd. Alice's misadventures frequently end with her being raped, assaulted or tortured. Alice is a Serial Rapist and Serial Killer, targeting those unsympathetic to her naked humiliation to regain control over her life. After having nude photos of her go viral, Alice is driven to madness and becomes an Omnicidal Maniac attempting to start World War 3 so no one will be alive to remember her humiliation - or at least they'll remember her as a monster rather than a joke. Plotted a Good Waste: Alice learns that she is a fictional character written to be stripped and humiliated for sexual pleasure of the viewers and tries communicating with her author, the viewers or both to plead them to give her a better story.

MEDIA EXAMPLES

Chika Minazuki from Ai Yori Aoshi. A Running Gag in the story has various accidents and mishaps leave Chika standing completely naked in front of Kaoru. On one particular occasion, she not only drags her friends into it, but she also finds herself on the ground with her legs spread wide. In Asteroid in Love, The Earth Sciences Club understand they need to wear Meido costumes during the School Festival exhibit to draw in visitors; the club's status as a Club Stub means that visibility means a lot to the club's continued survival since prospective students often visit these festivals. Most of the members, though, find it embarrassing; Mikage wears a tracksuit over it when her classmates come to visit, while Mira and Ao get embarrassed when their parents come by. The condition for Ringo's jumping power in Banana no Nana is that she has to wear a miniskirt that shows off her panties. Casca from Berserk, since she had troubles with her femininity and didn’t think she's very attractive (even though she is) tended to cover up and act like a Sweet Polly Oliver, when Guts has to stripped her so she wouldn't die of hypothermia, Casca attacks him as soon as she notices she's naked upon waking up. Played for Drama at other times as Clothing Damage is intentionally done to Casca by a lot of foes and specifically Wyald for obvious reasons. Even Guts her then Love Interest once told Casca to leave the battlefield after she lost most of her shirt and pants saying she would just distract him looking like that. When Casca is cured of her mental state and put in a beautiful but cleavage-revealing dress by the Elf Queen, Casca gets annoyed reminding everyone present that's she's a mercenary, they ignore her protests. Castle Town Dandelion: Akane has a knack for accidentally providing panty shots to the in-universe audience. In Chinpui, any photograph taken of Eri will inevitably turn out to be a upskirt shot or a nude. This is because both the interstellar paparazzi and the universe in general are determined to embarrass her. Kallen from Code Geass has fallen into some precarious clothing and/or pose situations, to the point where part of the fanbase considers her nothing more than fanservice. In The Demon Girl Next Door, Yuko's Crisis Management form's outfit is distressingly revealing to her, as she usually dresses extremely modestly, to the point one would never otherwise know she has a surprisingly attractive figure for her age and height. Not that anyone ever points it out. Don't Meddle with My Daughter!: Played for laughs and, occasionally, for drama. Athena Haruka aka the Eight Wonder retired from being superheroine 20 years ago, after repeatedly being harassed and sexually assaulted, by villains and bystanders alike. She's never told her daughter Clara because she fears what Clara might think of her. But when she finds out Clara's chosen to follow in her footsteps and is the new Eighth Wonder, Athena comes out of retirement to protect her. Though it means subjecting herself to sexual humiliation all over again, she'll bear it so her daughter won't have to. In Dorothy of Oz, Mara Shin's Magical Girl transformation strips off her clothes to reform them into the Witch's suit. Unfortunately for Mara, someone always walks in just as the magic takes her clothes off. In the fifth volume, she trips and falls on top of one of her comrades while in the middle of her transformation. Dragon Ball: In the very first story arc, Bulma's clothing becomes damaged and, stuck out in the desert, the only piece of clothing nearby is a Playboy bunny costume. She hates wearing it, but inexplicably wears the bunny ears with it until she can replace it with some nearly-as-revealing local attire. Yuka in Elfen Lied takes up the Ms. Fanservice role rather unwillingly, due to her being a frequent victim of Nyu's antics or getting panty shots that are seen by Kouta. Fairy Tail: Gray is a male example. His training to resist the cold left him with a habit of stripping down to his boxers without realising it, and he's always embarrassed to find out he's half-naked. Lucy, whose clothing always manages to rip just enough to cover the naughty bits. She's understandably not very happy about it. Not to mention that at least twice (thrice if we count a filler episode in the anime), she ended up with Natsu groping her. This culminates in an amusing scene in the movie where Lucy runs out of the shower without realizing that her towel didn't quite catch and ends up in front of the now wide-eyed Gray and Natsu, prompting the following exchange: Natsu: Gray, is your stripping habit contagious? Gray: Thank you, stripping habit! Tamaki Kotatsu of Fire Force. She doesn't like her body being exposed as a result of her "Lucky Lecher Lure" and usually has a Naked Freak-Out whenever it happens. She has to wear a bikini under a cut-off uniform (necessary, as a result of the way her powers work) and has a habit of accidentally tripping chest/crotch/boobs first into people and then accusing them of sexual harassment. In what's probably the ultimate example of this, she somehow loses all her clothes by tripping which proves that she's the real deal in place of a body-doubling cultist to Iris. However, she doesn't seem to have a problem wearing a bikini top and a open uniform jacket or her trousers with large gaps in the sides. Her reluctance clashes with her established role as the Symbol of Life. Free! has Rei Ryugazaki, who is forced to wear a speedo when he tries swimming for the very first time. He later objects and decides to get a different swimsuit, but Nagisa keeps getting more and more speedos for Rei, much to his dismay. In a later arc, when they are trying to recruit more members for the Iwatobi Swim club, Nagisa suggests they all parade through the school while showing off their bodies and a very frustrated Rei says he wouldn't do it. Nagisa then asks him what would he rather have, attract prospective club members by parading through the school in the buff or not have new members at all and Rei points out that they are both equally bad options. When the team is instructed by Gou to strip down to their form fitting swimsuits onstage, to get more members for their club, they are a little concerned but do it anyway, but Makoto Tachibana is actually shown to be embarrassed, as opposed to Nagisa or Haru. Girls Bravo: Kirie can't catch a break because she's stuck being the object of Fukuyama's perversions. Nearly half the time you'll see her panties is because he regularly flips up her skirt to see what color she's wearing. And you'll see plenty of her boobs too, since he gropes her just as often. In episode 11, Kirie has to play against him in a game of ping pong, where if she loses, she would've had to use her body as a loofah to wash his back. She only agrees to the terms since Fukuyama and his sister would have to leave, if she wins. And in episode 13, he blackmails her into entering the "Girls Fight!" competition, by threatening to show everyone a childhood photo of her wetting the bed if she doesn't. Then set the rules so the combatants have to wear progressively skimpier swimsuits as they advance in the rankings — just so he can see Kirie in a thong. Sohara from Heaven's Lost Property often ends up in embarrassing Fanservice situations, to her great dismay. An entire episode, for example, has her to go around without panties against her will. Hell Teacher Nube: Having Ritsuko Takahashi either naked, half-naked, or with quite the Clothing Damage is kind of a Running Gag in the series. It becomes a Cerebus Retcon when she's stripped naked and then almost murdered by a reluctant and mentally broken Yukime. Also, while Izuna Hazuki is normally a Ms. Fanservice, the episode where she develops pyrokinesis and her clothes are constantly damaged or destroyed places her here. Ryuko from Kill la Kill, in the first few episodes at least, is extremely embarrassed about how Stripperific her Kamui is. This actually turns into a plot point: because she's so ashamed of its skimpiness, she's unable to harness its true potential until a (totally bizarre) Rousing Speech from Mako. Mio Akiyama from K-On!. She's been forced into her share of costumes, not to mention tripping over a cord and landing in a panty-exposing position during the band's first performance in front of the whole school. In Love Hina Naru Narusegawa often ends up in embarrassing situations with Keitaro. To the point that the author himself, in the extra, apologizes for having drawn her naked so often. This is part of the main premise of Mahou Shoujo Nante Mou Ii Desu Kara. Yuzuka's Magical Girl outfit is nothing more than a two-piece swimsuit. While it does serve a practical purpose, given that her powers are water-based, and it's Played for Laughs rather than actual fanservice, Yuzuka is still extremely embarrassed by it and refuses to transform. Maken-ki!: Having H-Cup breasts makes Haruko a natural target for groping, since Takeru can't seem to keep his hands, or his face, off them. In some cases, it's deliberate. She also ends up pantless more than once, due to his knack of falling in such a way that her skirt (or her shorts) are always the only thing in reach. In chapter 60, Kimi explains that she convinced Takaki to cosplay for her at the school's previous Manga Con. She reluctantly went along with it, until a male attendee got to close for comfort and tried to take photos under her skirt. Takaki panicked, because of her androphobia, and stomped on him until Ms. Aki and the others calmed her down. She's refused to attend the convention ever since. This is the entire concept of Miss Machiko. The title character continually finds herself naked due to the actions of her perverted students, the occasional non-human, or the nature of the universe itself. The centaur Centorea from Monster Musume. She really does try to dress modestly but is frequently either giving Kimihito Marshmallow Hell, being groped by Kimihoto in accidents, or losing her top completely and reveals her breasts. Embarrassment tends to happen after each event. Briefly parodied by the show's resident Terminator Impersonator Lunar's dad in My Bride is a Mermaid. Nagasumi incidentally sees him changing into a Sailor Fuku outfit through a window across the street while cute music plays, causing him to gasp and close the curtains, shouting at Nagasumi to not look. Nagasumi is clearly not a fan of what just happened. My-HiME: Natsuki Kuga would like nothing more than to figure out why District One killed her mother. But as the resident Butt-Monkey, she has been forced into a Going Commando situation by a monster Panty Thief, forced to Show Some Leg to flag down a ride,as her friends tell her to "use her girlish looks", and forced into a frilly pink dress and pigtails for an involuntary karaoke session. Natsuki's Arch-Nemesis, Nao, at the aforementioned karaoke session, is made to wear an outfit that looks like something more appropriate to a Vegas showgirl or a Brazilian Carnival than a middle school student. She's clearly uncomfortable in the outfit, despite generally being much more confident in using her feminine looks to manipulate people. Negative Hero: When Renee joins the maids of the Demon Lord's castle for a day, the maids put her into a very fanservicey dress that stops above her knees, to her obvious discomfort. The Demon Lord's Papa Wolf intincts get triggered and he near-instantly whips up some much more practical (and modest) clothes for her.
