[[folder: Other-print boxers ]]

* In a filler episode of ''Anime/DragonBallZ'', a girl caught Gohan wearing teddy bear print boxers, and threatened to tell the school about "his secret" unless he went on a date with her (and she actually thought the boxers only added to his cuteness). [[OneDialogueTwoConversations However, Gohan thought she'd caught him removing his Great Saiyaman costume]].
* In ''Manga/DragonHalf'', Mig's Teddy Bear undies first lead to his [[DefeatByModesty Defeat By Embarrassment]] at the hands of the heroes, then his blackmail by Vina.
* Averted in ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist'' -- Edward's boxers are plain and boring. However in a bonus-comic Arakawa is shown asking her assistants to try to design his underwear, and got some interesting suggestion such as Automail-boxers.
* From ''Manga/{{Gintama}}'', we have Gintoki's [[RealMenWearPink pink strawberry boxers]]. He also has a pair of blue star boxers he's seen in less frequently.
* In ''Webcomic/HetaliaAxisPowers'', Spain has [[TrademarkFavoriteFood tomato]]-print boxers. China has panda boxers. Subverted with Germany where he's shown wearing blue boxers with a patch sewn by Austria.

* Several characters in ''Anime/PokemonTheSeries'' are shown wearing white/blue striped underwear, including Ash, a Hitmonlee's trainer in "The Punchy Pokemon", and Meowth imagines Giovanni wearing them while trying to cool down.
* ClassyCatBurglar Carson D. Carson spends most of ''Project Eden'' (The ''Anime/DirtyPair'' movie) running around in his pink with green polka-dot boxers after the girls confiscate his clothes.
* ''Manga/Reborn2004'', The entire beginning of the series, especially when it comes to our favorite little Dying Will Bullet that burns off all your clothes (except your underwear, in most cases). As a matter of fact, Tsuna seemingly has a different one each and every time. The boxers return again when Spanner captures him... well... you know the rest...
* In the anime adaptation of ''Literature/RunWithTheWind'', King owns a pair of quiz-themed underwear which is appropriate since he's obsessed with quiz shows. The underwear is seen in the first opening when the twins walk in on him changing and also in Episode 22 when he's changing into his track pants after his race.
* ''Manga/SoulEater'''s eponymous Soul apparently wears blue boxers with bones on them both in the manga and the anime (and since the series was animated by BONES...yeah).

* In one episode of ''Anime/YuGiOhGX'' Jaden is shown in boxers with his teacher's cat printed all over them.

[[folder: Other men's underwear ]]

* In one of the ''Anime/{{K}}'' manga, Reisi Munakata, the Blue King, takes his jigsaw puzzle hobby far enough to have a jigsaw-puzzle print on his underwear. Briefs, not boxers, of course, for fanservice.
* In the Cloverway English dub of ''Manga/SailorMoon'', a little boy drops his pants in front of Rini and says "I wear Sailor Moon underwear!" though he is shown holding plain looking briefs in one hand and his shorts in the other. In the original Japanese, he tells Chibiusa "Look at my little elephant!", doing his impression of Manga/CrayonShinChan.
* In the second episode of ''Anime/YokaiWatchJamYokaiAcademyYCloseEncountersOfTheNKind'', Tamada Mataro is revealed to wear briefs with a froggy print when Koma Sandayu pulls his pants down in front of the school.

[[folder: Childish women's underwear ]]

* ''Manga/AzumangaDaioh'': In the strip immediately after Sakaki's introduction, Kaorin discovers that she wears panties with a cartoon cat printed on the rear while changing for gym class, jarring with how her classmates (Kaorin included) perceive her as a "cool" and "tough" girl.
* On the cover of ''Manga/{{Bleach}}'' volume 3, you can see that Orihime's wearing polka-dot underwear.
* A RunningGag on ''Manga/BlueSeed'' involves Momiji displaying a different animal on the seat of her underwear when she does her OnceAnEpisode panty shot. The other characters maintain a betting pool on just what's going to show up on her panties any given day.
* Parodied by (what else?) ''Manga/BoboboboBobobo'', in which Don Patch wears panties with ribbons on them, and he makes no effort to hide this ([[CrossDresser yes, he]]).
* Misaka Mikoto of ''Literature/ACertainMagicalIndex[=/=]Manga/ACertainScientificRailgun'', the Third strongest person in Academy City, wears very childish underwear, something she is very embarrassed about. (No wonder she wears [[ModestyShorts shorts]].)
** And Saten likes to greet Uiharu by flipping her skirt and commenting on the panties she's wearing that day. At least once they were clovers.
* In ''Manga/{{Change 123}}'', when Kosukegawa first meets [[CheerfulChild Mikiri]], she's wearing bunny panties... [[InnocentFanserviceGirl and nothing else]].
* In a RunningGag for ''Manga/DetectiveSchoolQ'' anime, Kyu (but not the viewer) ends up seeing up Megumi's skirt for a variety of reasons (though never because he ''intentionally'' flips her skirt up; sometimes the wind blows strongly while she's wearing a short skirt, at others she trips on her feet...) and blurts out what pattern is on them on a semi-regular basis. The patterns include things like teardrops and bunnies.
* In ''Manga/DoctorSlump'', Yamabuki Midori is reported to wear ''Franchise/{{Godzilla}}'' panties. At first, she wore strawberry panties.
* Early in ''Manga/DragonBall'', Krillin holds onto Bulma's pants when they're hanging over a lava pit and accidentally pulls them down, revealing her strawberry undies. Naturally, she gets pissed when he stares at them and kicks him.
* In ''Manga/HayateTheCombatButler'', Hinagiku is normally serious... until she was revealed to wear (rather cute) frilled orange panties that didn't suit her at all (although she says she likes them).
* Also similarly, Yuno in ''Manga/HidamariSketch'' was also hugely embarrassed when her kitten-print undies were revealed in a locker-room prank. (Why does it have to be {{yonkoma}}...?)
* The first episode of ''Manga/HimesamaGoyoujin'' has [[AlphaBitch Aoi Misuzu]] slip on a discarded soda can, showing off her tanuki-print panties to the rest of the tennis club.
* In a similar, offscreen example, Tsukasa in ''Manga/LuckyStar'' is particularly embarrassed by absent-mindedly wearing character print underwear on MeasuringDay.
* In one chapter of ''Manga/MagicKaito'', Kaitou flips up Aoko's skirt and recoils in horror - Aoko, knowing that he often does this to her, had put on panties with a fish print! ([[WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes Kaitou is mortally afraid of fish for reasons that were never explained]]).
* In ''Manga/{{Mahoromatic}}'', Miss Saori Shikijo is sometime seen wearing teddy bear panties.
* Takaki in ''Manga/MakenKi'' secretly wears animal print panties. At least, it would be a secret if Yuuka [[RunningGag didn't keep flipping up her skirt]], to show everyone what she's wearing underneath.
* In ''Manga/MidoriDays'', Seiji recognizes one character as being American because of her [[WearingAFlagOnYourHead American-flag panties]]; Shiori's are teddy-bear print.

* In ''Literature/OkamiSan'', Machiko has panties with her name on them, and a matching bra... though she may have worn them specifically to seduce Ryoushi.
* ''Manga/TheQuintessentialQuintuplets'': Yotsuba at one point is mentioned to still wear bear panties from junior high. At one point, Ichika blackmails her with a pair that may or may not be the same ones (Yotsuba's head obscures them from view, though her reaction implies they are).
* When Umino flipped up Miss Haruna's skirt in ''Anime/SailorMoon'', it had a big smiley on it. She does have [[WomanChild a fairly fun and childish personality]] to go with it. And when Haruna's panties were revealed, she was so embarrassed that she cried while claiming [[DefiledForever "Now I'll never get married!"]] (changed to "I'll never live this down!" in the Viz dub) This scene was one of the reasons this episode was [[MissingEpisode wholly excised]] from the Creator/DiC English dub.
* In one of the episodes of the second season of ''Manga/SayonaraZetsubouSensei'', Ikkyu is so distracted by Chiri's Bell Pepper panties that he manages to forget that they were attacked by an alien race piloting ''HumongousMecha''.
* Kuro of ''Manga/TodaysCerberus'' is said to have bear panties in chapter 2. We don't see them then, but we do see them in a side-chapter which features Kuro actually purchasing the underpants.
* The movie ''Manga/UltimateTeacher'' has Ganbachi humiliate Hinako by removing her skirt in front of the whole class... revealing her lucky kitty gym shorts. Naturally, men from all over rush in to have a look. Hinako's maturity is later reflected when she defeats a gang by showing that she's now wearing plain, white panties.
* Penny in ''Manga/ZatchBell'' has underwear with her one-sided boyfriend (Zatch) on them. Then, she accidentally reveals them to Kiyo's class. Their reactions are epic.
