History Main / BathtubScene

* ''Manga/ToLoveRu'' starts with Rito taking a bath when the female alien Lala Satalin Deviluke ends up transported naked into Rito bathtub where he is shocked and mesmerized by her naked body. The series has many scenes in the bathtub.
** UpToEleven in the sequel ''Darkness'' since the first chapter where Rito took a bath when Momo Bella Deviluke, Lala's lustful younger sister, comes naked into the bath and start talk with him.

* In ''Film/{{OriginalSin|2001}}'', Creator/AngelinaJolie and Creator/AntonioBanderas take a bath together in a tin tub. Jolie's breasts are readily visible. In a case of BestKnownForTheFanservice, this and the actual sex scene are probably the only things anyone takes away from the film.

* ''Film/{{Hawking}}'': Has a few. The context is a bit sad - the character in question is an IllBoy testing his lung capacity - but not quite sad enough to turn wet Creator/BenedictCumberbatch into FanDisservice.

* ''Fanfic/MiraculousThePhoenixRises'' has a fairly normal one with Clay. That is until he casually lets Morgan barge in. [[{{Squick}} and the water is black from his stink of the day.]] [[NauseaFuel And the bath is "clogged".]] [[IAteWhat And he eats a corndog he pulled from the murky brine right in front of Morgan,]] [[FromBadToWorse before Morgan finishes it out of spite]].

* ''Series/YTheLastMan'': There's a long conversation scene while Hero is bathing with the Daughters of the Amazons, with her attempting to keep her privacy in a tub even as the rest casually stand around or wash nude. Hero herself is covered by the water.

* RecyledInSpace in ''Film/ForbiddenWorld'' where a female character takes a steam bath while entirely naked except for her sunglasses.

* One of the more famous non-{{Fanservice}} examples comes early on in ''Film/{{Arthur}}'' as the title character takes a lavish bubble bath; in this case, the scene is playing up his IdleRich {{Manchild}} nature and further establishes his relationship with his ServileSnarker valet Hobson. Photos from this scene turned up quite a bit in the print advertising campaign for the film, including several posters; one staged publicity still even has Creator/DudleyMoore doing a BathKick. The sequel ''and'' the 2011 {{Remake}} have similar scenes; in the latter, the bathtub is next to a window and Arthur watches passerby on the street below through opera glasses and jokes about them while he's bathing.

* ''Series/{{Angel}}'': In the series 3 premiere, seeing Cordy is in pain and distraught over yet another vision, her resident ghost prepares a [[SceneryCensor nice foamy bath]] and scrubs her back with a loofah.

* ''Series/TheScarletPimpernel'': Young Lord Tony Dewhurst (Creator/JamieBamber) has a bath in public, with several girls washing him. He's a bit ashamed and tries to protest, but MrFanservice has his duties. Comments from Tony's friends suggest that it might have lead to an off-screen ShowerOfLove and the loss of his virginity.
* ''Series/StarTrekDeepSpaceNine'': In the episode [[MirrorUniverse "Crossover"]], [[AlternateSelf Intendant Kira]] greets Major Kira as the Intendant is just coming out of her bath, escalating the [[ScrewYourself sexual]] [[LesYay tension]] of the scene.

* ''Fleming: The Man Who Would Be Bond''. Ian Fleming finds someone has broken into his house, but finds not a German spy but his {{Love Interest|s}} helping herself to his bathtub. And using more than the government-regulated six inches of bathwater too.

* ''{{Series/Highlander}}'' has a Duncan bathtub scene in 'The Samurai'. It's actually a gaffe because he's a Scotsman in Japan and had no idea that bathing in Japan is done before soaking in the tub.
* Another Adrian Paul scene was in ''{{Series/Tracker}}''. Mel has to teach Cole, who's an energy-based being with no physical body, how to keep his human body clean and shaved and such.

* RecyledIn Space in ''Film/ForbiddenWorld'' where a female character takes a steam bath while entirely naked except for her sunglasses.

* ''Film/AHardDaysNight'' has an ''epic'' bathtub scene with Creator/JohnLennon, although it's solely PlayedForLaughs. Two other characters have a conversation in the bathroom, when John is in the bathtub playing with his toy submarines happily and loudly. The CensorSuds cover everything up to the wrists and neck (though not the hat John's wearing in the bath, for reasons only he knows), which helps when John pulls the plug, and to all appearances goes down the plughole with the suds. Only to come through the bathroom door a minute later - much to the astonishment of the Beatles' manager, who was in the bathroom the entire time and knows perfectly well that John didn't leave the tub.

One of the most simple forms of {{Fanservice}} is having an attractive female or male spend a small amount of screen time in the tub. Many films usually use this as an easy excuse for nudity. Even though they are not very necessary, bathtub scenes usually seem to sneak their way into many forms of media even though most of the time they're unnecessary to the plot. If they do advance the plot, that's often due to a [[DeadlyBath deadly twist]].

* Chapter 42 of ''Manga/KaguyaSamaLoveIsWar'' has multiple scenes of Hayasaka soaking in the bath (or trying to, as she keeps on getting pulled out by [[HopelessWithTech Kaguya]] for help with setting up a Twitter account). It's notable in that this is the ''only'' bit of fanservice in the entire series outside of spin-offs.

* In the ''wuxia'' film ''Film/TheKnightOfKnights'', the ActionGirl Hong-yu chills in a tub, located in a public hall… after killing a horde of mooks, whose corpses are littered around twenty meters away from where she is bathing.

* ''Film/BlackSwan'' has one, but it soon turns into FanDisservice.

* The backside of the album cover for the 80s album Beauty and the Beat by TheGoGos features all five members.

* Many episodes of ''Manga/MaicchinguMachikoSensei'' include a scene with the title character in the bathtub. One scene involved one of her students attempting to join her. Yeah, it's that kind of an anime.
