The trope seems to be about a character who bathe often / loves baths, but the image is just of a character in a bathtub, and she doesn't even look to be particularly enjoying it.

Yeah, it's illustrating the title but not the trope. I think this is going to take someone actually invoking or parodying the trope to get across...the Oglaf example would be perfect but it's NSFW.

Keep Until Better Image Suggested. She is reading in the bathtub. That indicates to me well enough that she spends a lot of time there.

Does the character really have to be attractive? I know a character who loves taking baths, but it's from a show with Funny Animals where nobody is supposed to be attractive.

I'm mainly a fan of underrated media.

[up] It doesn't seem to have anything to do with her appearance, just that the character likes baths a lot.

A Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger image could work, though I can’t find anything from that show.

Here's several examples from Doraemon:

Even in space, Shizuka needs her bath.

Aggghhhhh mobile's screwing up how I copy links. There's a link to the picture in the Fire Emblem section of the Video Games folder.

Here. I think the current illustrates the trope better.

We need a lampshading or multiple shots of a character bathing at different occasions in order not to mislead the viewer to assume any bathing beauty is a Bathing Beauty as per our (current) definition.
