History Main / RubberFace

* Sha Gojyo and Son Goku do this constantly throughout the different anime series in ''{{Saiyuki}}''.

* One of the lighter moments of ''GunslingerGirl'' has Giuseppe grab Henrietta's cheek and stretch it out because "I felt like it", though it's actually because [[spoiler:she reminds him of his DeadLittleSister, who he used to do the same thing to]].

* The ''{{Touhou}}'' [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L5TY1DqJ59E fan movie]] that depicts the meeting of Yukari and Yuyuko has Chen doing this on Yukari in an attempt to cheer her up.

* One of the more memorable scenes in ''{{Pokemon}}'' has a certain electric [[{{mons}} mon]] fall victim to this. This troper wonders why the stretcher didn't get shocked.
* Happens many, many times in ''MahouSenseiNegima''. Usually Asuna to Negi, or Kotaro and Ayaka to each other.

* In ''[=~K-On!~=]'' Mio and Ritsu do this to ''each other'' after Yui announces she wants to join the Light Music Club after all.

* Similarly, in the ''ReadOrDie'' manga, Nenene does this a few times to Yomiko when frustrated.

* Yomi does this to JerkAss Tomo at one point in ''AzumangaDaioh''.

* In the ''{{FAKE}}'' OVA, Ryo stops a horny Dee and stretches his face out, making what one fan dubbed the "Gumby Face."

* Twice in {{UHF}}.

* Done by Ryudo to Elena shortly before the dungeon containing the Tongue of Valmar. Needs better description since This Troper is a newbie. Hi!

[[caption-width-right:300:Haruhi shows how it's done.]] A common form of punishment in animated shows that involves stretching a character's face on either side. Generally done to imitate a smile (usually to the {{Unfunny}} member of the cast for maximum humiliation) done out of frustration by one character towards another, or as a form of restraint. Optional "Gwwwommm" sound effect, and while not always done to the RubberMan, the general idea is the same.

** Fai once tried to make Kurogane look less grumpy by doing this to him. [[TheUnfunny It didn't work.]]

* The title screen to ''VideoGame/SuperMario64'' lets you stretch out various aspects of Mario's face and hold them in place for hilarious results. Perhaps as a nod to this, one minigame in MarioParty involves doing this to another character's face and trying to match it as closely as possible to a given image.

* As Monkey D. Luffy of ''OnePiece'' actually is a RubberMan, it's no surprise that this happens to him a lot.
