Before and during the Meiji Era, urinals were commonly used by both men and women. Traditionally, a kimono is worn without underwear, and the females merely pulled up their kimono, and... (The rest I refuse to put here because I'm sure you don't want to know how they did it while standing... XD) ... This practice disappeared in the 20th century, after most women started wearing western-style clothing. Nowadays, even kimono are almost always worn with underwear. The female urinal had a small revival between 1951 and 1968, when TOTO was producing female urinals.

So it WOULD be normal to see urinals in girls bathrooms... In crowded cities like Tokyo... would you like to sit your ass in a public toilet???
That's probably why they have these...

;D

Interesting fact,falling star,i guess that busts the idea that the girls pic had something wrong except by the fact that the girl peeing is not doing it in a separated chamber but too close to the other girls

It is a wacky world out there,no doubt

Well you know that in every Comedy film there's always a WC scene where there's always someone in the background using the urinal or toilet... So maybe that was the point in that scene of the anime...

That's a good point and all... but if you look at the original picture again, you can see that they're western urinals, and not japanese ones. They hang on the wall, not the floor.
Excuse me, have you seen my mind? I seem to have misplaced it...

Other than the idea of Superman spanking a child and him not being shot through the wall, there's the fact that it looks to me that he's sitting on the air next to the chair.

Is superman feeling a little queer here?, wearing an apron just doesn't seem to work for him.

Alterative - It could be the red lamp just doesnt go with the stripped sofa (Sack the interior designer) :)

I think a more a appropriate question would be 'What's right about about this image'!

I suppose I should give an answer - Is it the man of steel appears to be sweating from spanking a small child (And having a cheezy grin while doing it)?
