Johnny E: So, despite my primary reaction to much of this article being to run away very fast, I shall try to put wiki-professionalism ahead of my own mental health - isn't the difference between this and I See London that this version is eroticised to some degree? If not, what is the difference, but if so, an awful lot of the examples seem to be in the wrong place. On the other hand, thanks to Rule34 I'm not even sure The Same But Sexy is a feasible trope distinction.

Me: Not really. The sexualization is a difference, but how it is revealed is also important. This trope is incidental. Having someone drop their pants would not count here, but it would in I See London. Also, the other trope includes seeing parts of the panties that are not covering any naughty bits, like the top of boxers.

Furthermore, I See London is about humiliation. The person is usually embarrassed, or at least is assumed by others that they would be. A Panty Shot is usually not even revealed to the subject at all.

I'm a little peeved that the article's current image doesn't actually feature the trope in question (at least not from the viewer's view anyway). Can't we use an image of someone else who actually demonstrates the trope, like say Kaere from Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei?

I suspect that at this point, Mahoraba's not going away anymore; it's become this article's definite picture, as much as it frustrates me to no end.

So instead of replacing it, can we put in an additional image that, y'know, actually demonstrates the trope in question? I mean, Unwanted Harem has an image of a harem...

Sometimes, people scare me.

We should seriously clear this trope up, because many of these are not proper examples. Urgh.

Me after removing non-examples: [1]

Holy crap, man. (Now, it's possible that I was disturbed to the point of removing some actual examples, but geez.)

Sanity check: Would Freefall strip 1447 qualify for this trope? Given that the sight is only implied (instead of clearly visible to the audience) I'm not entirely sure.

If it's acknowledged and deliberate, I'd say it fits.

(man I feel so dirty judging all these examples...)

The lengths one has to go to as a troper, huh? *grin*

My personal rule is that if I don't see it, it doesn't count in my por—book.

But this article's featured picture tells it all: Implication is enough to count. So add away.

Maybe this article's featured picture is wrong though. Maybe we need a new one.

Ok, ofcourse this is asked before, but I can't find the awnser to my question: Does this trope relate to EVERY panty shot ever or only the one who were merely there for a Fetish Fuel effect? You see, Miyazaki uses realistic pantyshots and not that damned Magic Skirt. And knowing him, he would never show it for ones jerk-off material. So is this only for the sexual part of it? Then I really need to delete the trope at a LOT of places.

Some of the troper tales are getting long enough (and being edited repeatedly) they're starting to sound like fan fiction, or erotica or something.

Probably most of it IS fiction, hurrhurr. I am not sure what the purpose is of those pages but isn't it just a 'post whatever' board with this subject?

Speaking of which, what happened to the Troper Tales for this article? I wanted to add some real life examples of my own.

It got voted out very quickly in the discussion going on here.

does it count if the panties aren't visible due to censorship ?

If so, we've got one in Rogue Galaxy. The Player can see between Kisalas Legs While swimming. There's only a Black nothingness thought.

Don't think so. I thought there was something in YKKTW concern the kind of black holes you can have show up in games sometimes, but I'm not sure if I remembered that properly or nothing came of it. Seems like a substantive enough subject to me, but I am far too lazy to propose it.
