When a character, for whatever reason or plot contrivance, is forced to wear an animal costume similar to a mascot's outfit. The costume can be outlandish and ridiculous or simply silly, but either way, it certainly makes it hard to take them seriously. They may or may not gripe about the indignity.
For some reason or another, this is a common trope in {{Anime}}. If a character, or group of characters, is forced to take on an odd job, it will involve wearing one of these.

* In ''Manga/{{Gravitation}}'' this is one of Shinji's traits.
* ''LightNovel/{{Durarara}}'' has a dramatic example: while fleeing from the Yellow Scarves, Anri is forced into a large pink bunny costume so she can escape unnoticed.
* In ''[[LightNovel/HaruhiSuzumiya The Melancholy Of Haruhi Suzumiya]]'', the SOS Brigade end up in an assortment of frog costumes as per the odd job rule mentioned above, and spend the day nearly overheating while making fools of themselves. For their hard work, they're allowed to keep the costumes.
