* Adding to this, all of Kanba and Princess of the Crystal's ShipTease is retroactively AWKWARD with the reveal that [[spoiler: the latter is a fragment of the aforementioned Momoka who was ten when Sanetoshi split her soul in half and still appears as the age she "died". If one takes Momoka's chronological age into account, it isn't any better; since her younger sister Ringo, as well as Kanba, are both 16, she would be 25-26. So either the late teen Kanba had an AlmostKiss with a girl younger than Himari, or the adult Momoka had naked cuddled a highschooler]] Either way...awkward. It also frames their relationship in a much sinister light.

''Anime/{{Penguindrum}}'' has quite a lot of it, which isn't too surprising considering that it's from the [[Creator/KunihikoIkuhara same director]] as ''Utena''.
* Ringo Oginome is a very cute girl, indeed, but seeing her in a black negligee when [[spoiler: she's about to rape a completely drugged and defenseless [[HotTeacher Tabuki]] [[StalkerWithATestTube so she can be the mom of his child]]]] in episode 8 is all but ACK. It's not much better in episode 11, when she's seen [[SheCleansUpNicely wearing a rather nice dress]] -- [[spoiler: and then she gets Tabuki to "love" her via a LovePotion, but backs off the sex deal... and the guy is so NotHimself that he starts making ''really'' creepy {{Nightmare Face}}s while he tries to drag her back inside the room she has just left, almost surely to rape ''her''.]] Um, no.
* Episode 14 takes the cake. Two cute girls ([[spoiler: Yuri and Ringo]]) bonding and spending a whole day together in an ''[[HotSpringsEpisode onsen]]''? [[LesYay Oh yes]], [[GirlOnGirlIsHot please]]. [[spoiler: A [[BrokenBird mentally-broken Yuri]] drugging up Ringo, stripping both of them naked and [[DudeShesLikeInAComa then trying to]] [[AttemptedRape rape her]], while mentally repeating [[SelfDeprecation how much she hates herself]] due to her body issues and loneliness ''and'' the camera [[MaleGaze gives the viewer a whole tour]] of the drugged-up [[HiddenBuxom and surprisingly well-endowed]] Ringo's body]]? [[WhamEpisode Whaaaaaaat?!]]
* Episode 15 has a quite bit of it, what with all the nudity of a young girl [[spoiler: like a not-older-than-8 Yuri]] who is about to [[spoiler: be heavily scarred and possibly raped by her father.]]
* The ending card for episode 17 features a very handsome-looking [[spoiler: Tabuki]], with his shirt open and [[spoiler: his glasses off]]. The bad thing? He's actually [[LapPillow leaning his head]] on the lap of [[spoiler: a little girl]]. And while we don't see her face, the [[spoiler: little girl]] is pretty obviously [[spoiler: the long-deceased Momoka]]. AWKWARD.
* Similarly, the second OP includes an IKissYourFoot scene where [[spoiler: Tabuki]] is seen kissing [[spoiler: Momoka's tiny, Mary-Jane pump-clad]] foot. And this is [[BaitAndSwitchCredits after the viewers are fooled into thinking]] he's gonna kiss [[spoiler: Yuri]]'s foot. ItMakesSenseInContext, but it's still AWKWARD.
* In episode 23, [[spoiler: Kanba]] goes towards [[spoiler: Shouma]] and [[http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lw9e59TiuS1r4jpm5o1_500.gif hugs him rather tightly, saying he has always wanted to do so.]] Looks like HoYay unleaded, huh? Not when this happens after [[spoiler: Kanba's FaceHeelTurn]] ''and'' when [[spoiler: Kanba knocks out Shouma to take Himari away.]]
