| 1 | ''Anime/RevolutionaryGirlUtena'' has numerous intentional examples, mainly for the purpose of {{deconstruction}}. Notably, with a certain amount of FridgeHorror applied, even scenes that are ostensibly very fanservicey can turn into this trope -- especially when one remembers how young most of the characters are. Unless of course you are actually ''into'' that kind of stuff. |
| 2 | ---- |
| 3 | * The biggest example is the relationship between [[spoiler:Akio]] and Anthy, two [[TheBeautifulElite very good-looking people]] whose sex scenes together are pretty standard and even rather romantic-looking stuff... if you forget that [[spoiler:[[BrotherSisterIncest Akio and Anthy are brother and sister]]]]. That alone would be bad enough, but there's even more to it that make it even more twisted. [[ShrinkingViolet Anthy]] turns out to be BeautifulAllAlong, especially when she's [[GodivaHair fully nude]] and [[LettingHerHairDown with her long hair down]]; unfortunately, the reason for said nude scenes is [[SexualHarassmentAndRapeTropes not appealing in]] [[MoreThanMindControl the least]], and she is shown with a frozen, corpse-like stare. (In-universe, [[AlphaBitch Nanami]] and [[ActionGirl Utena]] witness it and do ''not'' [[BreakTheHaughty take]] [[BreakTheCutie it]] [[HeroicBSOD well]].) It's even worse when she was rendered nude again in the finale, only to [[FateWorseThanDeath be]] [[spoiler: ''impaled by a million swords''.]] |
| 4 | * Anything involving the [[spoiler:Akio]] Car in the second half of the series tends to have the same effect, for many of the same reasons. Notable scenes include [[spoiler:Ruka and Shiori having sex in the back of the car, which is part of Ruka's plan to humiliate and discredit her]], and [[spoiler:Touga sexually assaulting ''his own sister Nanami'' in there]]. |
| 5 | * ''That'' scene where [[spoiler:Utena's [[TheirFirstTime first time]]... with Akio of all people]] in episode 33. While it's not as super explicit as others, it's made all the worse by [[{{Ephebophile}} the age difference]] and [[QuestionableConsent dubious]] (or even ''[[RapeAsDrama possible lack of]]'') consent. Honestly, though, while [[spoiler:Akio]] looks like a very attractive guy and has lots of sexual charm in-story, just about all of his sexual relationships (be they overt or implied) have something seriously wrong with them. '''[[{{Deconstruction}} And that's the point.]]''' |
| 6 | ** Specifically because the scene flashes between that and [[spoiler:Akio in his car]] driving over writing on the road that reads "Stop Stop Stop". |
| 7 | * When Utena duels against [[spoiler:Touga for the second time so she can recover Anthy]], she gets a lot of ClothingDamage while wearing [[SailorFuku the standard and very cute female uniform]]. It comes across as far too much like a metaphor for AttemptedRape to be remotely appealing. |
