I do with this one. It should be in an art gallery, but I guess as my phone's background is good enough.

Technically, since all media is a type of art. Even if people disagree with it, media does fit the definition of art, which includes panty shots.

A lot of old paintings and sculptures have naked people in it. So i guess panty shot can be consider a form of art then if that is the case.

I figure this is a joke thread but some people be genuinely thinking this which is kinda crazy. Honestly I'm going to go the other way on this and say its crazy to not consider it art,think about it for just a second, pick a painting by a master painter and what determines whether its art is if it has panties in it or not? Whether the painting has panties or not is not even a valid thing to bring up.

Art is in the eye of the beholder. Anything is art if you say so, including panty shots.

Personal opinion: Only very few are really art, most are just soft porn. One which is self aware and in my eye art is the opening scene of Bakemonogatari.

Firstly, let me start by saying that I appreciate your attempt at providing a counterargument, but I'm afraid it falls flat on its face. The fact that a painting has panties or not has absolutely nothing to do with whether it's art or not. Art is a subjective experience that is different for every person. It's about how the viewer interprets and experiences the work, not whether it contains panties or not. So your argument is invalid.

Secondly, you seem to be making the mistake of equating the concept of art with the concept of beauty. Yes, many works of art can be considered beautiful, but not all of them are. Art can be ugly, grotesque, disturbing, or even offensive, and yet still be considered art.

You claim that it's crazy to consider panty shots in anime as art, but you don't provide any solid reasoning for your claim. Instead, you make an invalid comparison between panty shots and paintings by master painters. The fact that a painting has panties or not has nothing to do with whether it's art or not. Art is a subjective experience that can't be reduced to a simple checklist.

Furthermore, the artistic value of panty shots in anime can't be determined solely by their presence or absence. It's about how they're used and how they contribute to the overall work. Are they used to express a certain mood or theme? Are they essential to the story or just gratuitous? These are the questions we should be asking when evaluating the artistic merit of panty shots in anime.

Not necessarily. It’s more of a type of shot found in a work of art (animation).

I really don't want to have this discussion but here we go. I find it strange that you state my point " The fact that a painting has panties or not has absolutely nothing to do with whether it's art or not " verbatim which I take to mean that you agree with me and yet in next 2 sentences you claim that the argument is invalid. I agree with your claim that art has a subjective interpretation by the viewer, I don't see however how this is a counter argument to anything? I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm literally saying I don't understand what your point is.

I'm not sure what your second point is about, you're putting words in my mouth, art is not beauty, rather beauty is a thing that CAN exist in art, I don't see how this relates to the topic and I agree with what you said about how art can be ugly and grotesque as well.

" You claim that it's crazy to consider panty shots in anime as art " In fact I claim the opposite " its crazy to not consider it art " at this point I'm wondering whether you're trolling or you simply misread what I wrote.

I'm not going to respond to the last section since its my understanding that we are actually in agreement, that is, we both believe that panty shots do not preclude a piece from being art, and on the contrary have the power to make something into art given the appropriate intentions/context from the artist.

Well, it's always a good addition to the anime or manga, when it's not there it feels like something is missing.

Indeed I do. Anyone can just flash panties on screen, but it takes creativity to think of what kind of panties, color, angle, the how, and many other elements. The champions of the art think of these things to give you truly unique takes no one else has pulled and I always welcome it lol

An intricate design of panties themselves would be art, considering it's the same way with every other type of clothes. A scene of a woman wearing and showing is advertising the said art rather than being an art unto itself. After all, it takes quite a lot of patience and talent to design intricate clothes than to wear and show it. Just like how female models pose for a photo along with the newest luxury sports car. The car is the highlight. The model is just an afterthought that's not even necessary.

The idea that designing clothes takes more patience and talent than wearing them is just plain ridiculous. Both are important aspects of fashion and require their own set of skills. Wearing clothes well is an art in itself - just look at any fashion model on the runway. The way they walk, the way they move, the way they present the clothing - all of that is art.

And when it comes to panties specifically, the design itself can be just as artistic as any other piece of clothing. The intricate details, the materials used, the way they fit - all of that can be just as important as any other piece of clothing. And when a woman wears them, she's not just "showing them off" - she's wearing them as part of an overall ensemble that can be just as artistic and beautiful as any other outfit.

I would have agreed with you if we were talking about clothes in general. However, this is specifically about women in anime showing off the panties they are wearing. So wearing them and showing an underwear takes little effort than to design the said underwear.

All manga/anime/cartoons/webtoons/novels/poems/songs/music etc are art anyways. No one is arguing about that. I think the question posed by OP is about whether panty shots are something special when shown in anime to the extent that it can be considered an art. And the answer, even within the context of a mangaka drawing it, is no. Unless the said panty has complex and beautiful design.

Depending on the execution, I consider it tasteful fan-service, or tasteless fan-service. The image Dragevard posted is artsy, so it falls in the tasteful category.
