Basic Trope: A magazine makes a provocative cover, despite sex not being the subject of the featured article it presents.
- Straight: The cover of Trope Magazine is of Alice in a croptop, a really short skirt, and she winks at the camera.
- Exaggerated: Trope Magazine cover shows Alice nude in a scandalous position.
- Downplayed: Trope Magazine cover has Alice dressed normally, but in a seductive pose.
- Justified:
- Trope Magazine is published by the editor of Carwash Magazine, and the two covers were accidentally switched.
- The sales were decreasing and sex always sells.
- Inverted: Porn Magazine, which always shows scantily clad women naked and in various positions (sometimes even actually having sex) within its articles, has an issue with a cover that shows Alice more covered than a nun.
- Subverted: Somehow, Alice seems to be barely dressed, but it's only an optical illusion.
- Double Subverted: ... which was made above the real cover, where she is barely dressed.
- Parodied: Trope Magazine shows the fat and ugly Bob naked and in a seductive pose.
- Averted: Alice appears normal on the cover.
- Defied: Alice appears normally, but denying a revealing outfit an unseen employee presents her.
- Zig-Zagged: Trope Magazine shows Alice wearing a croptop and a skinny short despite the magazine not being used to that. However, the featured article seems to openly explain talks about how Fanservice makes people watch a show more easily. When readers come to the article, they see another picture of Alice in a bikini, but the article itself is unclear about its subject.
- Enforced: Trope Magazine always makes provocative covers for special events, as it makes the magazine stand out from the competition.
- Lampshaded: Trope Magazine actually made an article about how people tend to watch a show (or buy a magazine) if a sexy woman is on the cover.
