This bath scene in Violet Evergarden‘s movie is stunning and elegant. This scene shows Violet sharing a bath with her friend, and the visuals are breathtakingly detailed.

Instead of relying on light bars or steam, the scene uses tasteful angles, showing the characters’ backs while maintaining a respectful tone.

It’s not about fan service, it’s about creating a serene, atmospheric moment that feels genuine and heartfelt. A beautiful and calming scene that adds to the movie’s emotional depth.

And speaking of relatable, the part where Kaguya calls her (to help her) while she’s still soaking in the bath is spot on. We’ve all had moments like that.

Everyone lets their guard down for a while, creating a brief but genuine moment of connection that shows how much closer they have all grown.

From small to big badonkers, Rentarou’s got every kind of girlfriend you can imagine, it definitely adds to the experience. Just imagine what the bath scene would be like once all 100 of them are there!

It begins on a wholesome note as the girls chat about random topics, but things quickly spiral into chaos when they realize they’ve wandered into the wrong bath for man.

The awkwardness peaks when other guests show up, and the laughs keep coming when one of the girls forgets her clothes on the way out.

It’s an awkward and embarrassing series of events, but also completely hilarious.

KonoSuba is packed with hilarious bath and onsen moments, but episode 2 stands out above the rest.

The banter between Kazuma and Megumin in the bath is pure comedy gold and perfectly captures the show’s chaotic humor.

But this one does more than that, it actually contributes to the story and character development.

The setting is simple, a traditional Japanese inn with an onsen, but it works beautifully. On a cold winter day, soaking in a warm bath like that sounds pretty amazing, doesn’t it?

High School DxD is also famous for its bath scenes, but this one stands out because of the setting.

The bathhouse is enormous, beautifully designed, and luxurious enough to fit the entire cast comfortably. It’s over-the-top, and very DxD.

Sure, the scene raises a few questions, like why the water from the girls’ bath somehow overflows into the boys’ bath. The logic makes zero sense, but I’m no architect, so yea… just enjoy the spectacle.

I was tempted to include more bath scenes from this series, but since some lean a bit too far into NSFW territory, I’ll keep things wholesome for now.

This episode is pure comedic chaos in the best way possible.

You get a bit of everything: jealousy over body sizes, silly teasing, wholesome moments of the girls playing around, and of course, the boys’ inevitable attempt to sneak a peek.

And then there’s Hideyoshi Kinoshita, the show’s iconic “trap” character, calmly enjoying his own private bath (bath for “Hideyoshi” gender) while everyone else is in total disarray.

It’s classic Baka to Test humor at its finest.

Chained Soldier is known for its steamy energy, it is an ecchi anime after all, but this mixed onsen scene definitely earns its place on the list.

An honorable mention goes to episode 10 for its stylish visuals.

The boss character looks calm and comfortable soaking in the bath while the protagonist and his friends are struggling elsewhere.

The contrast, along with the detailed animation, makes it one of those “Damn, that looks good” moments.

Episode 8 of Mayo Chiki! delivers a classic awkward onsen situation.

Konoe has to hide her identity as a girl, which leads her to enter the men’s bath. What follows is a mix of tension and comedy as she tries to keep her secret.

When her dad eventually realizes his daughter is there, chaos and laughs begin!

There isn’t much context about the setting, but since it takes place in a traditional Japanese inn, it’s safe to say it’s an onsen bath.

This bath scene is definitely for the plot… surely.

Lucy takes an ice bath to keep her body cool while hacking into enemy systems, turning what could’ve been pure fan service into a tense, story-driven moment.

The cold neon glow sets a chilling cyberpunk mood. No relaxation here, just focus and pressure.

Watching Lucy immersed in ice, calm and composed amid the chaos, is both visually striking and undeniably cool.

This bath scene from Skeleton Knight in Another World is comedy gold, the kind of absurd setup only anime can pull off.

An elf girl walks in, completely unaware that the skeleton hero is already soaking in the bath.

It’s the classic “girl walks in on the guy” moment, but with a hilarious twist: the guy’s literally a skeleton. And the fact that the skeleton dude is blushing just makes it even funnier.

Haiyore! Nyaruko-san has no shortage of bath scenes, but the one in the OVA easily takes the spotlight.

The entire episode is practically dedicated to onsen antics, filled with lighthearted fan service and silly fun. The visuals are surprisingly nice, setting the perfect mood for a “relaxing” soak.

If you want more, episode 2 of Haiyore! Nyaruko-san W features another memorable bath scene (technically a shower one) with some impressive visuals of Nyaruko that fans will definitely appreciate.

Yuru Camp perfectly captures the cozy charm of a peaceful onsen visit. The stunning scenery, warm water, and gentle conversations create a calm, heartwarming moment.

Truly a Yuru Camp moment.

It’s the kind of scene that makes you want to gather your friends and head to an onsen yourself.

DanMachi also has its share of memorable bath scenes, but the one in season 1 episode 12, stands out the most.

Bell accidentally stumbles upon Ryuu and the other girls bathing in the wild, surrounded by a lush natural landscape.

Even with its fan service elements, the serene atmosphere gives the scene a surprisingly tranquil and refreshing feeling.

To Love-Ru is famous for its over-the-top antics, and this OVA pushes that reputation even further.

The story takes a wild turn involving a cat that’s actually a girl, leading to some seriously steamy situations.

The fan service is cranked up to the max, but it fits perfectly with the series’ playful and exaggerated tone. If you’re familiar with To Love-Ru, this won’t surprise you at all!

One Piece has countless iconic moments, and this bath scene is one of its funniest.

When Luffy and the crew try to peek at the royal bath, Nami’s ‘smackdown’ (and the inevitable nosebleeds) deliver classic One Piece comedy gold.

While other memorable bath scenes exist, like the one featuring Boa Hancock and Luffy, this moment perfectly captures the series’ mischievous energy.

Aho Girl delivers a fun and surprisingly relatable mix of bath and beach moments with best friends.

From chatting about embarrassing topics to their usual ridiculous antics, it’s everything you’d expect from this chaotic comedy.

Even in a bath scene, Aho Girl never drops its trademark goofy energy!

In Assault Lily: Bouquet episode 12, the bath scene hits right after an intense battle.

The bathroom may have been wrecked, but that only makes it better, turning it into a gorgeous open-air bath surrounded by nature.

It turns into an open-air bath surrounded by nature, and the visuals are stunning where you can even see the reflections on the bath floor.

The visuals are stunning, with light reflections shimmering on the floor and a calm atmosphere that contrasts beautifully with the action before it.

It’s a perfect cooldown moment for the characters and the audience alike, bringing warmth and relaxation before the finale.

Fate/Extra: Last Encore episode 2 treats us to pure luxury: a bath scene that looks like it came straight out of a high-end fantasy resort.

Flower petals drift across the water, soft light fills the room, and everything screams elegance and comfort.

The same setting appears again in episode 4 with a slightly different angle, but the mood stays the same: refined, relaxing, and beautifully animated.

After some intense training, there’s nothing like a relaxing bath, even if it gets a little unexpected when a “random” person joins in.

The cozy lighting and bubble-filled atmosphere make this scene stand out for its relaxed tone and comfy vibe.

If there’s one word to describe it, it’s “mood.” It’s all about the vibe and the feeling of calm, as long as you ignore the surprise visitor.

Even though this bath scene is short, it’s one of the most visually distinct ones.

The shower sits right in the center of a massive bathtub, giving the whole setup a unique and almost magical vibe.

Sure, it raises a funny question like “who puts a shower in the middle of the tub?” But weird layout aside, the scene’s atmosphere and design make it a nice highlight.
