Gag Boobs - Television Tropes & Idioms

Magda from Tanz Der Vampire proves that this trope exists even onstage

"It'll knock both your eyes out!"

—Tag Line for The French Line, starring the buxom Jane Russell

"Gah! You've turned my maguppies into bazongas!"

—Marge Simpson, The Simpsons, Large Marge

The (often satirical) use of female breasts for comedy, other than (or in addition to) Fanservice. Although motherly characters are oft given large chests, it is more common for the chest to be a cartoonish exaggeration (even within the context of the series) on a funny character for the purposes of physical humor. This even applies to a character who is otherwise very boyish-looking.

Will usually be co-opted back into fanservice at some point, unless the show is a shojo series.

See also Gainaxing, and Most Common Super Power.

See also: Marshmallow Hell, Funbag Airbag and Thanks For The Mammary, for related physical gags.

Contrast with Pettanko, and on a different axis Gag Penis.

Anime & Manga

Shikijo-sensei in Mahoromatic.
Mune-Mune in Abenobashi Mahou Shoutengai. (Her name literally means "boobs".)
Mina in Airmaster.
- Falls under the "often satirical" heading mentioned up there. Mina is a tremendously shy girl, who has a crush on the main character (also a girl), however she has comedically exagerated breasts which are wider than her hips and look overinflated and "fake". Mostly the butt of jokes and jibes, she's actually very insecure about them.
Shii Aasu from Puni Puni Poemi is a particularly shameless example. Specifically: Shii has breasts roughly as big as her head, and virtually every line she has is her either boasting of their size, or blatantly displaying them...while boasting about their size. Somewhat realistically, the show makes a point of how incredibly uncomfortable and heavy they are, and even she admits they're something of a burden.
Arguably the premise of Eiken, where most of the girls have breasts the size of potato sacks. The worst is the Token Loli (yes, even she has huge breasts!), who is almost more boob than girl.
- Komoe, the aforementioned Token Loli, is most glaringly revealed to be the biggest girl on the show when she and Kirika are both in swimsuits. Kirika has breasts as wide as her shoulders...and Komoe's breasts are bigger. When everyone on the show has breasts bigger than their heads, and you're the one deemed "too big" you know you're in trouble.
- And if you thought Komoe was bad, the same artist later gives us Okusama wa Shougakusei. One of the side characters is, erm... a kindergartner with P-cups. Yeah.
Naga from The Slayers has breasts that match her personality: bizarre, flamboyant, and overly proud of themselves. She's a parody of all those Stripperiffic fantasy sorceresses, so that's only to be expected.
- Then there's that scene where she's trying to traverse a very narrow ledge overlooking a steep precipice. Awkward hilarity ensues.
One of the more disturbing gags in the disturbing gag-packed last episode of Excel Saga features a lolicon character who reveals a pair of enormous Gag Boobs that she's been hiding under her shirt all this time. This prompts the pedophile scientist she's in love with to lose all interest in her.
In Bleach, Nel (in her buxom, grown-up form) gives Ichigo a hug. She seems oblivious to the fact that he has several massive wounds, resulting in her large chest putting him in a considerably large amount of pain (Arrancar have "skin of iron", remember?).
- Early on, Orihime Inoue got a lot of this; for example, one character explains Orihime's ability to eat a lot without gaining weight by claiming that "It all goes to her breasts." Also, the resident lesbian Chizuru often hugs Orihime from behind and attempts to grope her boobs, much to Orihime's surprise and Tatsuki's anger.
- Rangiku Matsumoto's habit of bringing up (and down and up and down) her endowments in regular conversation is a kind of ~~Running~~ Jogging Gag.
- And let's not forget Nemu holding Ishida down, oblivious(?) to the fact that she's suffocating him with her ample breasts.
In Gulliver Boy, one recurring Running Gag was to have 12-years-old Gadgeteer Genius Edison hug the local Magical Girl Misty and bury his face on her huge breasts, with Misty not even blinking an eyelid. It's later explained that he's an orphan raised by a very kind and large-chested nanny whom he adores and hugs in exactly the same way.
Junko Asagiri from Desert Punk.
Akahori Gedou Hour Rabuge manages to combine this with Powered Armor (yes, really). Aimi, who's a bit on the flat side, has fake breasts on her super suit made of "Paff-Paff X", a material which is bouncy enough to reflect anything, including incoming missiles.
Yoko from Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann has countless instances of Marshmallow Hell and Boota using her boobs as a warm, cozy place. Kiyoh, the eldest of Kittan's sisters, has this going for her as well.
Naeka from Kamen No Maid Guy. Her breasts even have their own fanclub, a set of three lechers from the boy's kendo club.
- Just about every episode makes Naeka's chest size into a plot point. Especially episode two, which claims Naeka is failing her math class because there is an inverse ratio between math grades and chest size.
Mikuru Asahina's boobs are important to the plot in Suzumiya Haruhi.
Katyusha aka Ukraine goes "BOING!" in Axis Powers Hetalia. Word Of God says that her huge breasts permanently make small noises.
Masane in the anime version of Witchblade - her name is perfectly normal, but she quickly gains the nickname Masa-mune, literally "invincible breasts" after one man's drunken stammer. The name sticks because of her proportions.
- Masamune is also the name of a historic swordsmith, whose blades were legendary for their beauty and power. A multi-layered pun perhaps?
Mahou Sensei Negima does this on occasion, usually involving Chizuru or Yuuna. There was even a chapter where Yuuna had a nightmare in which Makie had magically stolen her "size".
- To say nothing of the whole Chichigami incident...definite proof that Gag Boobs don't have to be outrageously large.
- Although we have that covered, too. In the Ala Alba OAVs, during the scene where Anya sees just how far the chest size spectrum goes with Class 3/A. Chizuru, for that one scene only, was given boobs each the size of her entire torso.
  - To say nothing of the infamous scene where Negi attempted to inflate Asuna's chest...
  - Or when Anya tried the same trick on Nodoka and herself...
In a series packed with fanservice, Izumi from Kemeko DX takes the cake with her ridiculous Gag Boobs beating out even MM. The 'Ode to Joy' sequence in episode 4 probably qualifies as the most awesome wardrobe malfunction in anime history.
Fresh of Shikabane Hime, which is only really noticeable compared to all the other non loli girls because her character is so ridiculous.
At one point in the Pokémon Special manga, Blue stuffs her shirt with Poké Balls. Fanservicey and practical!
- In which chapter did this happen now?
- Or the anime ep not shown in America, where there's a swimsuit competition, and James has the Gag Boobs.
  - You mean THESE◊? The episode was Beauty and the Beach, and the funniest part is James taunting Misty about his fake breasts - and Misty crying.
    James: Maybe when you're older, you'll have a chest like this!
Hinata Aki's long-awaited swimsuit scene on Keroro Gunsou is marked by air raid sirens and flashing red lights ("WARNING!" "DYNAMITE!!").
Courtesy of Code Geass, Norio Wakamoto and a certain 4koma... ALL HAIL ~~BRITANNIA~~ BOOBS!!
Subverted in Canaan with one waitress and her impressive ~~tracks of land~~ meat buns. Turns out that she was actually a Pettanko that was stuffing her shirt with actual meat buns in order to impress her clients.
Surprisingly averted in Yuria 100 Shiki. Yuria is a man-made Sex Bot who is modestly endowed.
Nodoka of Saki, whose absolutely huge bust size makes her the target of many breast-related jokes.
Yuuki: And Nodo-chan is hiding tiles in her boobs!
Nodoka: I am not!
Variable Geo has this, combined with Boobs Of Steel, to the point of being somewhat satirical about it. Yuka Takeuchi, the main character, is a teenaged girl with basketball-sized breasts that are still growing and she's greatly embarrassed about them; Elena Goldsmith has comically overinflated breasts which she uses to hold a lighter, a vital part of her fighting style, among others...
The late Joichiro Sakuraba is the Ferrari of Gag Boobs and Breast Expansion. Among his eaiser to come by works:
- Miyuki's Marvelous Melons is the story of a Pettanko who, wishing to be popular, makes a deal with the (well, a) devil who gives her the ability to inflate her breasts to absurd proprtions whe she gets turned on. But she has trouble controlling it so it becomes more of a burden than a blessing. Later when trying to show off for a guy who just revealed he likes her, her breasts grow so huge that, according to dialogue, she topples of over and crushes him (a top contender for "Most Magnificent Death Ever"). At one point another girl shows up who made a similar deal with another imp, to boost her bust on live TV in an attempt to get a modeling contract...ironically she ends up getting so huge she becomes more breast than girl, and just squicks everyone.
- Hyper Breast Girl Rikako-chan takes Gag Boobs to it's most extreme level, effectively a parody, with a title character so well-endowed she defies belief. She's a teenaged girl who has perfectly round, cartoonishly overinflated breasts that are, not even kidding, over two-meters in diameter according to dialogue. Unlike Miyuki she's incredibly boastful and downright arrogant about it: there is rarely a scene where she isn't puffing up her chest with all her might, and she stops people on the street and asking them if they're impressed by her comically huge breasts. And when her boss makes the mistake of trying to guess her size and "lowballing" it, Rikako gets insulted, arrogantly sticks out her chest at him and exclaims she hasn't been "that small" since she was in elementary school...prompting an image of a preteen Rikako with breasts bigger than basketballs.
In Tona Gura, Hot Onee-Chan Hatsune and dangerously Lolicon Nina both fit this trope, to the consternation of Kazuki and Yuuji, respectively, though for different reasons.
Carmen99 of Gun X Sword named herself after her bust size - 99cm. She's actually named Carul Mendoza, but she prefers the nickname.
Kirie in Girls Bravo who according to Tomoka is a boob monster
The hentai manga Blue Eyes features a bewildering array of women all with outrageously oversized, perfectly pert breasts—one of whom with breasts so big she'd probably be unable to stand in Real Life. The title character, Maria a blue-eyed blonde girl, has breasts roughly the size of basketballs and another, Lisa, easily matches her in size. Maria's mother has boobs at least twice as big, literally wider than her shoulders. And it culminated with Claire, a blonde girl who almost served as a kind of satire of Bigger Is Better: Claire's breasts are each the size, and shape, of beach balls and so cartoonishly huge that she actually got made fun of because of them, turning her into a recluse.
On Divergence Eve, literally every single female character has Gag Boobs. "Colossally well endowed" doesn't begin to describe it. And the Gainaxing? Oh the Gainaxing! Two charaters are "small" for the show, but on any other show would be considered the resident Gag Boobs. The main character, Masaki, has breasts that would satiate even the most extreme bukunyu fetishist and she's practically flat compared to some of her crew mates—the ship's Christmas Cake Lt. Commander Lyar for example, is substantially bigger. But biggest of all is Prim Snowbright, to the point of boarderline parody...just to give you an idea, her closest rival, Latina sex-on-legs Luxandra Frail, has breasts roughly equal in size to volley balls. Prim is about twice as big, easily. Literally the only character on the show who is not a man and yet actually flat-chested is A—a Token Loli, and B—not a human being.

Lets talk about the HHH-cup elephant in the room shall we? This trope IS Power Girl. As far as This Troper is aware, she's never been depicted as being even "average" in size and has universally been shown as having breasts anywhere from twice to three times as big as her peers. Jokes, comments, whole issues if memory serves, have been literally built around her breasts. With the exception of Mighty Endowed she's never been out-sized—even characters like Lady Death, ostensibly created specifically for breast-size and little else, can at best equal her on a good day depending on the artist. Basically, Power Girl is the gold standard for Gag Boobs in DC Comics and comics in general. Now...if you'll excuse me, This Troper will be in his bunk.
- Actually, Power Girl was originally fairly average (if such a term can be used in conjunction with comic-book heroines' boobs). Inker Wally Wood simply decided to see how big he could make her boobs before his editors noticed, and by the time he left the title (leaving Power Girl with her... um... sizeable chest), subsequent artists simply assumed that that was how she was meant to be portrayed. And the rest is, as they say, history.
And as mentioned, in The DCU, Young Justice's first "opponent", if she could be called that, was Mighty Endowed, who touched a mysterious relic and transformed into a power-crazed Cat Girl with "huge... tracts of land." We never actually see them, but the impression is they outclass even the normal Most Common Super Powered heroines exponentially. As evidenced by the fact that she can't stand upright anymore.
- She tries to get around this limitation by getting support from the guys she controls. Seems a big enough pair of breasts can hypnotize men.
- She is later seen making an escape from custody, when she discovers she can make her breasts emit a blinding light. i.e, She turns on the high beams on her headlights.
Olga Lawina, a regular character in the Dutch comic Agent 327 (a parody on James Bond) is quite literally the embodiment of this trope, If You Know What I Mean. In fact, she has probably been the target of every breast-related trope and then some. You can check out her, ahem, 'assets' here◊.
In the WITCH comic series, perpetual flirt tomboy Irma Lair tries on two separate occasions to get older boys to notice her by using her Glam Of Shazam to boost her bust. Possibly as some kind of attempted moral about vanity both attempts end with her being humiliated or embarrassed in some way.
- Irma is substantially bigger than the other girls in both human and Guardian forms, though a lot of the "gag" in her Gag Boobs comes from the fact that they're made fun of a lot or the butt of a failed Breast Expansion joke, so she realy never gets to enjoy being the so big. And in one episode Cornelia (basically The Libby, Rich Bitch, plus Ice Queen) gets her powers "augmented" by a magical artifact that also augments her most important powers, making Irma look puny by comparison. And all Irma could do was cross her arms and glare.
In the comic Harry Johnson (yeah...), one issue has a female scientist trying to impress the eponymous main character by inflating her breasts to beach ball-like size with a special "super-soldier" serum.
In the new Blue Beetle, Jaime goes into combat with foe Giganta. His usual sidekicks were delayed from assisting, due to being stunned by the sight of breasts the size of bungalows. "We got to help Jaime with his sexy fight!" Mentor hero Peacemaker wonders if Batman slips Robin saltpeter in his food to avoid this kind of embarassment.
She-Hulk gets nearly as much grief/attention/affection as Power Girl. In her 100th issue, it was indirectly stated that she has the biggest "natural" breasts of any superheroine in the Marvel Universe.

Literature

A very disturbing use of Gag Boobs can be found in Gulliver's Travels, during a scene where Gulliver describes how the 60-foot-tall giantesses of Brobdingnag liked to treat him like a doll or plaything, often stripping him naked and setting him astride one of their nipples.
- Maybe disturbing for YOU!
  - Well, yes, but the same chapter also noted that said breasts, which would look good on a normally-sized person, are much uglier when magnified!
  - To clarify: Any scar, pimple, stretchmark, or other inconsistency of skin texture is magnified to the same degree.
- Clearly Swift had a very messed up childhood if that's how he thinks someone plays with dolls.
In the Clique series, one of the many, many libbies named Alicia is a young Hispanic girl who starts developing way too fast for her own good. In a subversion of Bigger Is Better, Alicia is actually made fun of by her peers for this trait, making her feel ashamed of her huge chest.
- A similar situation occurs in the Gossip Girl prequel book, It Had To Be You. One of the girls is insecure about her size, so she takes hormones to grow bigger breasts. But instead of making her popular, it backfires spectacularly, because she couldn't stop growing and became oversized. So now instead of being laughed at for being too flat, she's laughed at for being too big. Literal Gag Boobs.

An episode of Allo Allo features two well-endowed female characters wearing low-cut outfits serving ice-cream. From a vibrating ice-cream truck.
- And, of course, the Mac Guffin through the whole series was "ze picture of ze fallen Madonna wiz ze big boobies".
One of the recurring characters in English sketch comedy Little Britain was a sheltered mama's boy in his late twenties who's still being breastfed. Like everything else in the show, it was done in the best possible taste.
Benny Hill. Never an episode went by without some kind of Gag Boobs gag. The most frequently repeated was the golf-ball-lands-in-the-cleavage shot, the "I dropped my keys down there" bit, and umbrella handles getting snagged in low necklines.
The premise behind Lindsay Lohan's HarryPotter skit on SNL was that Hermione had gotten big boobs over the summer and every single male character was jaw-on-the-floor ogling at them.
- Speaking of gag boobs on SNL, there was a mid-1980s instance where season 10 cast member Pamela Stephenson appears on Weekend Update and introduces the audience to her breasts, which begin to move around on their own accord and end up throwing her over the Update desk.
Anything involving Cleo Roccos, especially in her Kenny Everett Show days.
During the second and third seasons of Friends, Monica had to work at a 50s themed diner where she was made to wear huge fake boobs under her uniform.
The Japanese Sketch Comedy show Downtown no Gottsu Ee Kanji had two episodes of its Seikimatsu Sentai Gorenjai sketch revolve around the titular Goranger parody team changing its theme to various kinds of boobs which they would then dance around and [[Gainaxing Gainax]] with.
The obvious... endowments of the female lead in the bottomlessly... er... the awful "Quest of the Delta Knights" probably weren't intended to be played for laughs, but during the host segment on that episode of MST 3 K, Tom Servo's "breasts" definitely were.
In the Blackadder season 2 episode Beer, the wearing of comedy breasts was encouraged as part of a drinking party hosted by the titular character. Lord Melchett (Stephen Fry) sports an enormous, golden pair; Miriam Margolyes refers to Edmund's as 'Devil's Dumplings', which he then attempts to pretend are, in fact, earmuffs which have slipped down.
Manswers, as a show on Spike TV about questions men might want to know the answers to, quite naturally descends into this territory now and again. The two most memorable were "How big are the word's biggest boobs?" (a stripper in the US had something like 62H breasts) and "How big does a boob have to be to crush a beer can?" (a EE did the trick).
How can we forget Elvira, Mistress of the Dark?
Scrubs has had a couple boob jokes, but one in particular that fits this trope would be the time when Dr. Cox was raving over how "pregnancy really became" his girlfriend Jordan:
Dr. Cox: I don't know what it is you... you just look radient lately, Jordan.
Jordan: Mm. It's the giant boobs, isn't it?
Dr. Cox: Well have ya seen them lately?
Jordan: Yes... relax.
J.D.: *Standing next to Laverne, who overhears Dr. Cox* I've seen bigger.
Laverne: *Gives him sharp look*
J.D.: No not you... although kudos.
Laverne: Mmm-hm.

And then, in another season...

J.D.: Hey, Laverne... what would you give me if I landed a jellybean in your cleavage?

Laverne: A concussion.

J.D.: *Daydreaming* *Lands a jellybean in between her breasts* Yes, he hits it at the buzzer!!

Lavern: Oh, no he didn't. *Knocks him over and power-slams him*

J.D.: *Coming back from daydream* Not worth it.

And again...

Ted: *Standing with a couple other guys who are all gazing open-mouthed at two new hot nurses* Those nurses have beautiful breasts.

Rao from Okami. Commented on numerous times by Issun.
Half the game Stretch Panic revolves around Boss Battles with Linda's possessed sisters, while the other half revolves around fighting "Bonita Zakos", demons that take the form of scantily clad women with breasts that are about twice the size of the rest of their bodies.
- Interestingly, much greater damage is done for hitting (usually stretching then snapping) a "weak point" on a boss, and more points are acquired for doing so on Bonita Zakos - in this case, however, the "weak point" is anything but the breasts - a difficult feat nonetheless.
Seolla Schweizer of Super Robot Wars is an exceptionally busty, young girl that most of the comical banter between her and Idiot Hero Arado Balanga is about her unusual chest size. This becomes a plot point in the Original Generation sub-series when during a battle, she subconsciously screams at him to stop making fun of her breasts, even though she's been brainwashed into thinking he's the enemy.
- See also the entirety of Super Robot Taisen OG Saga: Endless Frontier. Okay, it's really Kaguya Nanbu who mostly has the Gag Boobs, but the game dialogue itself has plenty of Boob Gags:
  Xiaomu: "A bomb girl? What's that supposed to mean? Does she have an even bigger rack than Princess Family Size here?"

Among female characters in the SoulCalibur series, this trope is the rule rather than the exception, excluding Talim and Xianghua. The character creator includes a bar for female fighters with the sole function of governing...er...size.

Webcomics

Buxom Gal from Supermegatopia.
- To expand: Buxom Gall was a flat-chested and insecure girl who was abducted by aliens as a sex slave. But they were displeased with her appearance so they gave her enormous breast implants that, being alien technology, can absorb energy in various forms—the more she absorbs, the bigger she gets. Now she's an energy manipulating, Supergirl-like superheroine, proudly displaying her new endowments while saving the world. She gives a whole new meaning to "walking around with your chest puffed out".
The Magnificent Milk Maid, which redefines NSFW, has many heroines with immense sweater puppies (including a villainess named Sweater Puppy...who lives up to the title), but then they also have JuGGGz. Originally a flat-chested, insecure girl she gains the power to grow to immense size, or at least her boobs do, as well as superstrength and durability. After a brief rampage, though, her roaring rampage of revenge is brought to a close when a boy she was lusting after calls her a freak and says he's not interested in someone with boobs the size of her whole torso. Ouch. She shows up again from time to time...with similarly humiliating results for her in each case.
The webcomic Craving Control has this as its central premise. Lalia, the main character, is a Big Eater with the "straight to the breasts" clause. She's also klutzy, impulsive and jumpy, huggy (when drunk), and often... overflows her wardrobe.
Monica, main character of Wapsi Square, sometimes uses her large breasts comedically, especially when she's been drinking. Other times, it just happens to her.
Turn the Minotaur from Yet Another Fantasy Gamer Comic travels with the other monsters to steal a treasure from a Sphinx. Unlike the others however, what he seeks is the sphinx herself, whom he imagines is as lonely as he is. He is last seen resting comfortably between a pair of breasts several times his own size(NSFW).
This trope appears to be the entire reason behind Didi from Menage a 3. Most strips she's in feature some kind of gag about her enormous breasts.
- Which is practically lampshaded by her cast page picture, which shows the bottom of her nose, the mouth and chin underneath... to her chest.
  - She seems to be roughly two-thirds this, and one-third Boobs Of Steel.
If Fa'lina isn't there already, then she's closing in fast.
- She's there, taking it and running with it for all it's worth.
Crops up occasionally in The Wotch, usually during an Attractive Bent Gender.
Last Res0rt's Adharia Kuvoe gets the brunt of the boob-related gags.
- Hell, even Cypress gets one, and she's the only one in that scene who DOESN'T have breasts...

Cypress: Like you? While we're at it, how about I throw in some breast implants?
Jaime from Girls With Slingshots, to the point that when she and Hazel agreed to go as each other for Hallowe'en, Hazel just wore a cardboard cutout of breasts.
Ellen from El Goonish Shive has fairly large breasts normally, but when she zaps herself with her own Transformation Ray her tracts of land quickly reach gag boob territory. This is used by her to tease her "brother" Elliot.
The whole plot of the Breast Expansion web comic Pulse is that Annie Chang was a massively insecure teen girl who wanted bigger boobs, who undergoes a procedure to get superpowers. Chief among those powers are, no joke, 100-inch breasts, each larger than her entire torso. Somewhat realistically the series also deals with the embarrassment, insecurity and freakshow status such size would cause her; at first pleased by her new appearance she rapidly realizes just how ridiculous she looks and the danger she's in as a superhero.
- A web comic by the same author, Peeved, has a similar theme. Eve, a young girl, wishes to match up with her impossibly busty aunt Juno and makes a birthday wish...which comes true. But again, her joy soon sours as her big boobs cause big problems in her life, and she gets made fun of by her co-workers and friends. The story also features a whole host of other Gag Boob characters including Juno who has breasts described as "so big they could pop", a Genie with breasts the size of beach balls, two female ninjas with gargantuan busts and a preteen schoolgirl in the first story who magically augments her breasts to the point she can't even stand up under the weight.
  - And not forgetting the Final Fantasy VII comic, The Missing Materia - which takes the ALREADY buxom Tifa and gradually ups her (and all other female characters) breasts to increasingly enormous sizes.
  - My Big Life, a newer comic by the same author, takesplace in a world where all women have breast implants and size determines a woman's place in society, so women start getting breasts so big that they can no longer walk or even sit up without assistance. To get ahead in this world, a young woman named Xom gets breasts so huge they're quite literally comical...she soon regrets this.
The Adventures of Chi-Chi Chan is an interesting one, about a preteen loli who develops breasts twice as big as her actual torso. Unable to be a chid actress anymore, she's left with basically being a cosplay porn actress.
Harmony gets them in this Sore Thumbs. Also, Cecania's natural ones.

A Giantess on Chowder who, predictably, launches Schnitzel straight into Marshmallow Hell.
The Simpsons. Marge Simpson's accidental breast augmentation. She puts them to good use at the end of the episode.
Krusty: Whoa! Look at those mugumbos!
In one episode of Justice League, The Atom gets to ride in Wonder Woman's Wonder Bra. And he looks very satisfied with himself.
- Warren Ellis, who penned that episode, originally put in a line of dialogue for the Atom during that scene: "Try not to breathe." Unfortunately, the censors cut it.
- The first episode to introduce Galatea (basically Power Girl) introduced her by having a sniper staring directly at her chest, while she was dressed as supergirl. Later in the episode Green Arrow and Supergirl are looking at a picture showing Galatea (of course, standing with her back arched and breasts thrust out) and he says something to the effect of "She's just like you..." Supergirl looks at him cross, "Well, not exactly".
Anastasia: Sophie, cousin to the Dowager Empress. No wonder Vlad considers her his "cream puff".
An episode of Duckman featured twin models with breasts twice as big as their heads. They hire Duckman to find out why men seem to act so strangely around them.
- The self-same episode had Duckman heading to a plastic surgery clinic (no...completely different reason) and we get a short sequence of a woman having her breasts enhanced. Something apparently goes awry though because she rapidly gets so big she explodes and deflates.
In An American Tail: Fievel Goes West, there is a human woman with huge knockers who is infatuated with Cat R. Waul, whom he meets when Fievel stabs him with a fork and sends him shooting up into the human overworld, and whose unwilling pet he becomes when the good guys send him packing on a train at film's end. In her first scene, she even snuggles him up into her cleavage!
- Come to think of it, I don't really see how Fievel and the gang came out on top, there...
  - Probably because of the fact that, at the end, he's not only in Marshmallow Hell, he's also dressed in booties and matching bonnet.
  - Small price to pay, man.
A cutaway joke in Family Guy features a parody of The Ghost Whisperer features the main character talking to a ghost and asking why all the ghosts come to her and it reveals she has enormous breasts longer than the rest of her body.
Mrs. Toad from Thumbelina. A toad with perfectly circular, ginormous breasts that bounce and sway everywhere. What's worse is the artists dressed them in polka dots.
- Well, isn't she voiced by, like, Charo?
Ever heard of Clara Cluck? They might not be classic boobs per say, but her chest area is a rather...prominent gag wherever she appears. Donald gets a free ride on them in "Mickey's Birthday Party".
When Cartman became a very thinly-veiled parody of Dog the Bounty Hunter, he too got a buxom assistant. Her chest was so large that she could only just see over it.
In the episode "Busted" of Braceface, the title character, Sharon, gets tired of being flat-chested and buys a breast enhancement pump to impress a boy. Unfortunately she ends up so overinflated that instead of impressing the guy everyone just laughs at her. Oh but wait, that's not all, because then she goes even bigger and one of her boobs explodes! The moral is supposed to be about being proud of how you naturally look...I guess.
Again the cartoon WITCH plays with this. Numerous times Breast Expansion, breast size and the girls' various insecurities about either having not enough (Something Will is quite upset about) or too much (Irma has the ironic problem of being too big) are used for humor.

The gags Doreen and Maureen is most famous for usually involve Doreen's huge, sagging breasts. They're always moving, possibly due to wind, but at times they seem to be controlled by Doreen, or have a mind of their own. On occasions they've been used for slapping people in the face, throwing people, opening doors and picking up objects.
- This joke is parodied with Doreen's mother, Noreen, whose breasts are so long they reach the floor. She uses them for walking, and can slap two people at a time with them.
In one of Michael Swaim's Mastermind cartoons, the Mastermind's new assistant is literally just a pair of legs atop which is perched a pair of spherical breasts the size of huskies. One of his minions is annoyed at being passed over for promotion once again; everyone else is too busy enjoying the view.
Zero Punctuation has what might be called Running Gag Boobs, in that anytime a character is particularly endowed he will either go out of his way to make jokes about them or go out of his way to let you know he is is striving mightily not to make jokes about them.
