So, this next character is a foreigner (from a Japanese POV), and her [[Phenotype Stereotype|design should reflect that]]. Okay, [[Everyone Loves Blondes|blonde hair]]...[[Blue Eyes]]...[[Statuesque Stunner|175cm tall]]... [[Buxom Is Better|huge cans]]...
Line 11:
Related to [[Phenotype Stereotype]]. See also [[Chinese Girl]], [[Everyone Looks Sexier If French]], and [[Europeans Are Kinky]]. Compare and contrast [[Mukokuseki]].

▲{{examples}}
== [[Anime]]
* Any foreign chick in [[Hentai]]. The page pic is one such example, from the manga ''[[Viva Freedom]]''.
** Special mention goes to the so-called "Delicious Brown" waifu archetype. Expect them to have a beautiful chocolate tan, C-to-D cup breasts (which is positively enormous in Japan) and an insanely round bubble butt. Most of the time they'll have at least ''some'' Afroamerican/Latino blood.
* The definitive example has got to be Hevn from ''[[
** When the artist felt that Hevn alone wasn't busty enough to combat the dark nature of the Divine Design storyline, he created Maria Noches, whose breasts are both bigger and more visible.
* Mireille Bouquet from ''[[Noir (
* Jennifer Portman from ''[[This Ugly Yet Beautiful World]]''.
* To a small degree, Wedy from ''[[
* Kaere Kimura from ''[[Sayonara, Zetsubou
* A scene in ''[[
** Going even further, Osaka labels the various characters' bust sizes by location. Well-endowed Sakaki is "American", several small-chested secondary characters are "Japanese", while somewhat-busty Yomi is tagged as "Hawaiian" (halfway between "Japanese" and "American"). When less-endowed-but-quite-vain [[Genki Girl]] Tomo demands to know what "American" location she is, [[Cloudcuckoolander]] Osaka replies with "American Yokohama".
* [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/midori_no_hibi/v04/c041/3.html Lucy] from ''[[Midori no Hibi]]''. Main character Seiji figures out her nationality from her ''American flag-pattern panties''. You can't make this stuff up, folks.
* Suzy and Angela in ''[[Genshiken]]'' are Americans, but only Angela fits this trope. And how... Japanese Ohno claims to have a larger bust than her, however.
* Asuka from ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'' is a German
** Possibly Mari from ''[[Rebuild of Evangelion|Rebuild
* Monica from ''[[Yakitate!! Japan]]'', who wears an American flag bikini.
** It should be noted that she invoked this deliberately, so as to distract her opponent in the [[Cooking Duel|baking duel]]. Her opponent responded to this by stripping down to his loincloth.
* Jodie Starling and Sharon Vineyard from ''[[Detective Conan]]''.
* Apparently, Patricia Martin of ''[[Lucky Star]]'', a foreign exchange student with the second largest bust of the main characters. Interestingly never mentioned in a show otherwise full of tropes and lampshade hanging, making it either intentionally subverted or simply overshadowed by her official role of "normal fangirl" (versus her two friends, [[Otaku Surrogate]] for standard fanboys and [[Yuri Fangirl
* Everyone in ''[[Grenadier]]'' assumes that Rushuna is foreigner based on her three most noticeable assets: her golden hair, and her massive pair of boobs. The hair actually winds up getting her into trouble on one occasion.
* Tina Foster of ''[[
* Cathy McMahon in ''[[
* Played with in ''[[Love Hina]]''. [[Unlucky Everydude]] Keitaro returns from an academic trip abroad; Naru (after spending much of his trip worried about all the trope-fitting girls that he was ''bound'' to encounter) finds a blond hair on his clothes and takes him to task for philandering. Turns out, it was a hair from a mysteriously blonde gorilla.
* Based on this trope, it's not a surprise that ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]]'''s resident American, Alisa, officially got the second largest bust size amongst Nanoha, Fate, Hayate, Suzuka, and her after the [[Time Skip]]. The largest went to Suzuka. It's always the quiet ones.
Line 40 ⟶ 41:
** Metara probably also applies, given how many allusions to her being a foreigner are made and her whole 'Western' look as a gunslinger.
* Rare male example: [[The Woobie|Wallace/Willis]] from the ''[[Digimon Adventure 02]]'' [[The Movie|movie]], being American, naturally is blonde with blue eyes (though they change to green during the course of the movie). Lampshaded in the dubbed version where Daisuke/Davis comments, "Yeah, yeah, back off there, blondie", after Wallace/Willis complements Miyako/Yolei.
* Another male example shows up in the ''[[Di Gi Charat]]'' specials, where the cast travels to the US and meets up with a full-blown 10-year-old Dejiko-fanboy, complete with blonde hair, Japanese with a weird accent ("De'jeeko'-chan!") and stars & stripes-colored [[
* ''[[Keroro Gunsou]]'' gives us the American "celebrity" (and one-time personal trainer) Melody Honey, a character from the author's previous work, ''[[Arcade Gamer Fubuki]]''.
* Lizlet L. Chelsie from ''[[Omamori Himari]]''.
* Rachel "Castor" Stanley from ''[[Kenichi:
* Male version: November 11 in ''[[Darker
** Brita counts as a female example from the series, having the same [[Phenotype Stereotype]] and probably being American, and like November 11, lacks a concern for nudity, although in both cases, it's not culture that causes this behavior, it's [[Lack of Empathy|sociopathy]].
** Another female example, the presumably American (she works for the CIA) Madame Oreille in the second season. She seems to spend an inordinate amount of time in swimsuits that show off her cleavage or getting a massage while covered in oil. Again, [[Phenotype Stereotype|blond and blue-eyed]].
Line 56 ⟶ 57:
* Jackie Tristan from ''[[Bleach]]'' is a [[Tall, Dark and Bishoujo]], [[Ambiguously Brown]] woman with [[Absolute Cleavage]], probably either American or British going by her name.
▲== Films ==
* The German guy's wife in ''[[Super Troopers]]''.
* Nadia, the European exchange student from ''[[American Pie]]''.
Line 65:
* Esmeralda Villa Lobos in ''[[Pulp Fiction]]''.
== [[Video Games]] ==▼
* Tiffany Lords from ''[[
▲== Video Games ==
▲* Tiffany Lords from ''[[Rival Schools (Video Game)|Rival Schools]]'' is the epitome of this trope -- a bouncy, large-breasted blonde American cheerleader/boxer with [[Jiggle Physics]] in full effect.
* English females represent this well, especially in fighting games, and include Cammy from ''[[Street Fighter]]'', Ivy from the [[Soul Series]], [[Femme Fatale|Christie]] from ''[[Dead or Alive]]'' and of course, there's ''[[Tomb Raider]]'''s [[Ms. Fanservice|Lara Croft]]. All are arguably the most [[Fan Service|Fanservicey]] in their respective games.
** Although since the original ''Tomb Raider'' games were made by a British developer in doesn't count until the rights were sold to Crystal Dynamics (American) which was then bought up by Square-Enix (Japanese).
*** That does kind of explain why Lara's bust size has been steadily increasing. That and the graphical advancements which afforded better jiggle physics.
* It's worth noting that despite her role as [[Ms. Fanservice]], [[Fatal Fury|Mai Shiranui]] is actually far from having the largest bust measurement in ''[[The King of Fighters]]'' ([[Informed Attribute|at least if you go by official 3-sizes]]); Shermie ([[Everyone Looks Sexier If French|French]], 92
** When first introduced, Blue Mary filled this role in ''Fatal Fury 3]]'' and ''Real Bout 1'' when her bust was more emphasized than Mai's. In ''Mark of the Wolves'', without any of them present, B. Jennet (British and blonde) is both
** King ([[Everyone Looks Sexier If French|French]]) was also the original
* Tina Armstrong from the ''[[Dead or Alive]]'' game series.
** To a lesser extent, Hitomi qualifies as well. Any girl that has a belt for a bra...
Line 81 ⟶ 80:
** And now we have Crimson Viper (American).
* Carrie from ''[[Bamboo Blade]]''.
* Anna Lindhurst from ''[[Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan]]'', the American, is the tallest of all six cheergirls, has blonde hair, and the largest breasts.
* ''[[Rumble Roses]]'', oh God, ''Rumble Roses''. Just check out the non-Asian characters in the game. Dixie (American) and Ms. Spencer (Canadian) especially ''scream'' the trope (and don't let us get to their [[Heel]] personas).
* In the indie game ''[[Daigaku Gurashi]]'', premade character Jenny Cummings is an example. She's a busty [[Dark-Skinned Blond]]e [[Lovable Sex Maniac]] with an American name. The game is set in Japan.
== [[Web Comics]] ==
* The ninjas from ''[[No Need for Bushido]]'', for some reason.
** Which is lampshaded in [https://web.archive.org/web/20130703222938/http://noneedforbushido.com/2009/remix/remix-08/ this bonus comic] (kinda [[NSFW]], as it includes [[Toplessness From the Back]]), where the text is changed to have a character attempt to convince one of said ninjas to appear in a vote incentive.
* Leona from ''[[
== [[Western Animation]] ==
* Brynja Heringsdötir from ''[[Code Lyoko]]'', the bombshell from Iceland... [[Parody Sue|in a strictly in-universe sense]].
** Yumi also has her moments, particularly in ''Marabounta'' where she's shown to be fairly busty while swimming in the school swimming pool. [[Tall, Dark and Bishoujo]] indeed.
