History Main / DinnerBathOrSexOffer

* In ''Manga/{{Beastars}}'', Louis makes light of Legoshi [[spoiler: eating his leg]] earlier while recovering in the hospital by offering him three choices; two types of food, and the third option being 'me'. The line could be read either way, as an {{Innuendo}} or a tease about Legoshi's predation.

* ''LightNovel/ThePetGirlOfSakurasou'': Subverted by Misaki in the first episode as she offers Sorata dinner, bath, or.... underwear. [[note]]The word is "ma-wa-shi" -- a sumo wrestler's loincloth -- an intentional corruption of "Watashi" ("Me"). She also tries "tawashi", a scrubbing brush -- Sorata implores her to get to the "Watashi" part already.[[/note]]

As this trope has its basis in an old Japanese custom[[note]]its name in Japan is "shinkon santaku", roughly meaning "newlywed's three choices"[[/note]] (which is likely to get parodied nowadays), this trope is fairly common in hentai and {{Ecchi}}, particularly Rom Coms and {{Harem}} anime. In modern comedies the protagonist will often either choose one of the options that isn't sex or ignore the question entirely; it's not uncommon for the person being asked the question to [[ObliviousToLove not reciprocate]] [[UnwantedHarem the girl's feelings]] at all. Alternately, in a raunchier sort of comedy they may choose all three at the same time.

-->--'''Loving wife, to her husband'''

* In ''Anime/BlackBullet'', Enju tries to offer choices to Rentaro while wearing nothing but a ModestyTowel. Rentaro's response is to implore her to PleasePutSomeClothesOn.

* ''LightNovel/TheFamiliarOfZero'': When Siesta invokes her right to use Saito for a day, she sets up a newlywed scenario and tries this on him. However, when reaches "bath" she then realises that about half the school's maids are eavesdropping and stops to drive them away, then tries to finish as if nothing happened. Saito chooses dinner.

* In ''LightNovel/KonoSuba'', one member of the Axis Cult does this to troll Kazuma, asking "Are you here for conversion? Baptism? Or are you here for me?" Kazuma is dumbfounded before she laughs and tells him she was joking, while Kazuma rages on the inside and wishes he could punch her.

* ''LightNovel/NyarukoCrawlingWithLove'': {{Exaggerated|Trope}}; Nyaruko offers Mahiro three choices, all of which are her:

* ''Anime/Overlord2012'': Albedo pulls this on Ainz (clearly hoping for the third one), before realizing she forgot to do so wearing only an apron and begs for Ainz' forgiveness. As Ainz is a walking skeleton and thus incapable of reciprocating, it makes no difference to him either way. The fact that he unintentionally rewrote her settings to be this way towards him is also a factor in his not wanting to take advantage of her.

* ''LightNovel/StrikeTheBlood'': {{Subverted|Trope}}. While Kojou Akatsuki is aboard another vampire lord's boat. Several bikini-clad women introduce themselves as maids and offer to wash his back. When he refuses, they offer to wash his front, which he refuses even harder. He questions whether they actually ''are'' maids, and they reveal the subversion: they're political hostages from foreign lands, trying to seduce him so that they'd become pregnant with the child of the most powerful vampire in the world, which would guarantee them political status.
* ''LightNovel/StudentCouncilsDiscretion'': [[YaoiFangirl Mafuyu]], while play-acting as Sugisaki's wife in ''Lv. 2'', goes from offering food or a bath to offering him sex with the older guy, Nakameguro.

* In ''Manga/TheMaidIHiredRecentlyIsMysterious'', Lilith makes such an offer to Yuuri when [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness he fails to respond]] to [[TheTease her usual teasing]]. She then immediately panics, thinking she's gone too far, but Yuuri just sighs and walks off, prompting Lilith to ask whether he's fallen ill.

-->"Welcome home, Darling. Will you start with dinner? Or a bath? Or... [[YaoiGuys Nakameguro-sempai]]?"

* ''Manga/MonsterMusume'': {{Exaggerated|Trope}} when the {{Lamia}} girl Miia gives the "food, bath, or me?" offer complete with the NakedApron to her exchange program host Kimihito (wearing a SalaryMan outfit) in one of her {{Imagine Spot}}s. The response (she imagined) was "[[TakeAThirdOption I'll have YOU for dinner]] [[BreadEggsBreadedEggs IN the bath, Miia!]]", and we get a shot of him [[WallBangHer doing her on the bathtub]] still [[SexDressed wearing her apron while he's still wearing]] his SalaryMan uniform.

* In ''Anime/NoGameNoLife'', when Fil returns to the exiled Kurami with a bag of ISOStandardUrbanGroceries while the latter is taking a bath:
-->'''Fil:''' Do you want information? Food? Or... ''[removes her hood]'' ...me?\\
'''Kurami:''' ''[smiling]'' Clothes first, I think.

* ''Manga/MonsterMusume'': {{Exaggerated|Trope}} when the {{Lamia}} girl Miia gives the "food, bath, or me?" offer complete with the NakedApron to her exchange program host Kimihito (wearing a SalaryMan outfit) in one of her {{Imagine Spot}}s.
