History Main / OutdoorBathPeeping

* In ''ComicBook/{{Melusine}}'', the eponymous CuteWitch sometimes goes for a swim in natural bodies of water, so it can happen. Notably in book 20, where a KnightErrant on a vaguely draconic mount catches her bathing in a pond; the knight apologizes, saying that her virtue is safe with him, as all he wants to do is drench the thirst of his steed. However, the weird beast starts emptying all the water with its snout, leaving a rather miffed Mélusine standing naked in the now-dry pond.
* ''ComicBook/New52'': In ''ComicBook/{{Superboy}} #10'', Superboy calls out that he's started their campfire, but when she doesn't answer, he searches and is stunned to walk in on Wonder Girl (Cassandra Sandsmark) bathing in a lake. Wonder Girl angrily calls him a pervert and tells him to turn around. Superboy turns around but puts his hand on the ground and smiles. Wonder Girl remembers that he can "see" through what he is touching (kind of like Toph from ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'') and angrily throws a rock at the back of his head to get him to cut it out.

** In ''Film/TheRibaldTalesOfRobinHood'', Friar Tuck spies on three maidens SkinnyDipping in a pond before he loses his balance and topples into the water.

'''Vangerdahast:''' I doubt you asked him to watch you. (''glowering in Rowen's direction'') Had you been guarding the princess instead of leering at her, you would have heard me coming.

* In ''Date with an Angel'', Jim sees the eponymous angel bathing in a pool. He stares for a few seconds, then gets embarrassed and leaves.

* ''Film/YellowHairAndTheFortressOfGold'': On the beach in Mexico, Yellow hair takes an early morning swim to clean up. The Pecos Kid is a little discombobulated when he wakes up and spots her drying off: still naked.

* ''Film/YellowHairAndTheCityOfGold'': On the beach in Mexico, Yellow hair takes an early morning swim to clean up. The Pecos Kid is a little discombobulated when he wakes up and spots her drying off: still naked.

* In ''Devil & Devil'', while wandering through Hell, Sword and Souma are pursued by ghouls and fall down a cliff into a pond below. There, they stumble upon a she-devil named Lilith who was bathing. She doesn't care about being seen naked, though she takes offense from Sword calling her a brat. Then the ghouls catch up to them, and Lilith destroys them all in one attack since she doesn't want to get dirty again after just washing herself.

* The first scene in ''Manga/InuYasha'' described below is very similar to one in the OVA short ''Fire Tripper'', also by Creator/RumikoTakahashi, which is considered the inspiration for ''[=InuYasha=]''. In there, male protagonist Shukumaru doesn't exactly hide that he's ogling female lead Suzuko as she's swimming nude in a river, and almost gets nailed by her with a boulder as a result.

* ''Manga/InuYasha'':
** This happens at the beginning. Kagome, bathing nude in a cold stream to get rid of the grim and blood of her first fights in the past, spots Inu-Yasha spying on her. '''"SIT!"''' Kagome thinks he is peeping on her, while old Kaede guesses correctly that the hanyo aims rather at stealing a fragment of Shikon no Tama.
** Happens '''repeatedly''' to Inu-Yasha and Kagome, even more so after Miroku and Sango show up. Actually, Kagome '''meets''' Miroku like this, when he's peeping at her while she's at an outdoor bath. She guesses someone's watching her, tries to use a rock to hit him... and hits Inu-Yasha instead.

* [[Creator/KenAkamatsu Akamatsu]] gave us the Pararakelse arc of ''Manga/LoveHina'' and two examples at the oasis. The first is immediately after they arrive there and jump into the water without even bothering to undress -- [[SexySoakedShirt not that it matters]]. Later, Naru starts getting all mushy and ''forcefully'' tells Keitarō to go over and tell Nyamo that he's going to help her with the excavation, ''right away''. [[InnocentFanserviceGirl Nyamo is bathing at the time.]] Keitarō acts about as embarrassed as you'd expect. Naru ''also'' [[MegatonPunch acts exactly as you'd expect.]] [[ComedicSociopathy Poor Keitarô...]]

* Happens in the manga ''Manga/VaelberSaga''. Note that the {{bodyguard|Crush}} watching the princess bath nude in the sea is female, but [[LesYay no less affected]]. And also, there is a huge mutant monster in the water...

* In ''ComicBook/{{Melusine}}'', the eponymous CuteWitch sometimes goes for a swim in natural bodies of water, so it can happen. Notably in book 20, where a KnightErrant on a vaguely draconic mount catches her bathing in a pond; the knight apologizes, saying that her virtue is safe with him, as all he wants to do is drench the thirst of his mount. However, the weird beast starts emptying all the water with its snout, leaving a rather miffed Mélusine standing naked in the now-dry pond.

* In ''Film/TheHobbit'' fanfic ''[[http://archiveofourown.org/works/4661757 The Monstrous Company of Thorin Oakenshield]]'', this trope is played with -- Bilbo wants to bathe in a stream and Bofur walks by and actually ''asks'' if watching is allowed ''before'' Bilbo takes his clothes off.

** In ''[[Fanfic/OkayNowPanic Okay, NOW Panic!]]'' ([[http://www.storiesofarda.com/chapterlistview.asp?SID=4272 link]]), the sequel to ''[[Fanfic/DontPanic Don't Panic!]]'' ([[http://www.storiesofarda.com/chapterlistview.asp?SID=4250 link]]), Penny, having gotten used to the relative reliability of hot baths in Imladris (compared to the wilds of Middle-Earth, and certainly better than the ones at The Prancing Pony) and even to the work involved in preparing one, then finds, upon traveling again, that she has to bathe in ''a rather cold mountain stream''. Her reaction to the temperature is loud enough to bring one of the elf men posted to guard them looking to see what is the matter. A brief explanation sends him away, amused.

** ''Fanfic/IAmNotAMarySue'' is a parody of bad fanfiction. Leggieluver123 writes a story where Legolas finds the main character, Sornif, in a stream, and stares at her naked beauty. "Secretly though, she was pleased." But when Caroline [[TrappedInTVLand falls into the story]] and becomes Sornif, she is much less pleased to be in this scene.
* ''Fanfic/KitsuneNoKenFistOfTheFox'': In Hinata's second meeting with Yugito (the first being at the Hyuga family's annual ball when Yugito's there to warn Naruto about Akatsuki), the heiress goes to the older woman's penthouse suite, only to find Yugito bathing in an artificial WaterfallShower on the suite's balcony. Despite her initial surprise and some moments of blushing at Yugito's daring, Hinata winds up watching for a good few minutes, even briefly and unconsciously comparing her own chest size to Yugito's. For her part, [[ShamelessFanserviceGirl Yugito]] merely smirks and asks Hinata if she enjoys the view, but otherwise doesn't embarrass the younger woman about it (much). This later turns out to have been an InvokedTrope, as Yugito admits to Itachi that, knowing beforehand that Hinata was coming to visit, she deliberately set up the situation so as to shock Hinata's prim-and-proper genteelness and to see the resulting reaction.

-->'''Savannah:''' ''(gives a knowing look below his waist)'' That water must be real cold.

* ''Series/AFrenchVillage'': Antoine and his friends spy a young Frenchwoman bathing naked in the river, whom they spy on with binoculars. Then they realize she's with a German, and decide to take his gun.

* In ''Film/Shotgun1955'', Clay catches Reb spying on Abby as she bathes in the river, and this leads a knockdown drag-out fistfight between the two men.

* ''Manga/KaguyaSamaLoveIsWar'' sets this up and then subverts it: One chapter during the second-years' field trip seemingly ends with Miyuki getting peer pressured by his male friends into peeping in the girls' bath. However, the next one opens with Ishigami and Iino back at the school (being first years, they aren't on the trip) [[ConversationalTroping discussing]] the bath peeping trope and pointing out that [[RealityEnsues it's both very creepy and illegal]] and isn't the sort of thing that would happen in real life. Instead it turns out that Miyuki's friends just wanted to see the girls leaving the changing area with wet hair, which they find attractive.[[note]]Their logic being that normally, the only person who sees a girl fresh from a bath is her boyfriend, therefore it's very intimate[[/note]]

* In ''Film/KillerParty'', the frat boys spy on the sorority girls using the hot tub in the backyard of the sorority house. They then [[BeeAfraid release bees]] to force the girls out of the tub and make them run back to the house naked.

* The first scene in ''Manga/InuYasha'' described below is very similar to one in the OVA short ''Fire Tripper'', also by Creator/RumikoTakahashi, which is considered the inspiration for ''[=InuYasha=]''. In there, male protagonist Shukumaru doesn't exactly hide that he's ogling, and almost gets nailed by female lead Suzuko with a boulder as a result.

* ''[[Franchise/DotHack .hack//GIFT]]'' features a peeping scene in the ending credits where Subaru, BT, Mimiru are all bathing in a hotspring and Sora, Silver Knight and Crim are peeping on them. Of course, Silver Knight has a {{Nosebleed}}.
* ''Manga/InuYasha'':
** This happens at the beginning. Kagome, bathing nude in a cold stream to get rid of the grim and blood of her first fights in the past, spots Inu-Yasha spying on her. '''"SIT!"''' Kagome thinks he is peeping on her, while old Kaede guesses correctly that the hanyo aims rather at stealing a fragment of Shikon no Tama.
** Happens '''repeatedly''' to Inu-Yasha and Kagome, even more so after Miroku and Sango show up. Actually, Kagome '''meets''' Miroku like this, when he's peeping at her while she's at an outdoor bath. She guesses someone's watching her, tries to use a rock to hit him... and hits Inu-Yasha instead.
* In ''Anime/FullMetalPanicFumoffu'' Kurz and Sōsuke's classmates go to great lengths to peek at the girls. And Sōsuke, being CrazyPrepared, is more than willing to make sure they ''don't''. [[RuleOfFunny With turret machineguns and landmines]]. Shinji Kazama does manage to get to the women's side of the bath... only to fly face-first into Sōsuke's crotch, who calmly informs him that after midnight, the men and women swap sides.

* ''Manga/MahouSenseiNegima'':
** During the exploration of the [[GreatBigLibraryOfEverything Mahora Library]] (which is more like a huge underground "{{dungeon|Crawling}}", complete with a ''subterranean river''), Negi first walks in on Makie, Kaede and Ku-Fei showering under a waterfall (but they don't mind much and tease him), and then on Asuna swimming, whom he can't help but ogle shortly.
** Much later, Chisame is bathing in a lake when she wanders around a stone outcropping to find Jack Rakan showering under a waterfall. This bothers her much more than it bothers him.

* Subverted twice in ''Anime/ShinkonGattaiGodannar''. This happens to Anna, but it turns out to be a [[AllJustADream nightmare]]. Later, Kukarachov apparently sneaks up on Luna bathing, before revealing that he is not watching her, nor is he interested in her.

* ''Webcomic/GirlGenius'': While Oggie is reminiscing about his wife and saying he never knew why it was his tent she chose to share she's depicted [[https://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20200415 staring at him from behind a tree while he bathes in a pond.]]

* ''Webcomic/{{Oglaf}}'' features one strip where a woman is bathing erotically in a convenient body of water, thinking to herself that doing this just perpetuates the cycle of bathe-be peeped on-have sexual encounter-bathe. Another woman strides through the bushes and into the body of water and starts doing plain bathing, accompanied by such unsexy actions as blowing her nose into the water. The first woman follows her lead to break the cycle, causing the peeper in the bushes to lose interest and walk away.

* ''Film/WonderWoman2017'': Diana doesn't so much "peep" on ComicBook/SteveTrevor while he's taking a bath in a spring as she walks right in and starts chatting with him while checking him out, which he's obviously somewhat uncomfortable with as he keeps alternating between trying to cover his privates and not.

* In the French graphic novel series ''ComicBook/BlackMoonChronicles'', this is how the hero Wismerhill [[NakedFirstImpression met his first paramour]], an [[OurElvesAreBetter elven]] [[ActionGirl female warrior]], bathing in a river. At first, she's mad at the peeper, [[ThrowingYourSwordAlwaysWorks throwing her bastard sword]] in a tree next to him ([[CantBatheWithoutAWeapon she may bathe nude, but she never parts with her weapon]]). However the virgin hero reacts quite innocently, having never seen a naked woman before, and she quickly warms up to him.

* ''Anime/BladeAndSoul'': In episode 1 Alka is bathing in a pond (the viewer only sees her ShouldersUpNudity or ToplessnessFromTheBack with {{Sideboob}}) when she notices [[PeepingTom a man peeping at her]]. So she [[CantBatheWithoutAWeapon reaches for her weapon underwater]] and leaps out of the water to [[FullFrontalAssault attack him while fully nude]]. She doesn't kill him since his partner comes out and convinces her otherwise but she does end up scaring the peeper so much [[BringMyBrownPants he pisses himself in fear]]. She [[ShamelessFanserviceGirl doesn't bother covering herself]] even when told to PleasePutSomeClothesOn, so it's clear she was more worried about [[DeadlyBath being attacked while bathing]] than her modesty.
