|-
| style="border-bottom:3px solid #CCCCFF" | A body of water which is used to submerge into for both cleanliness and relaxation. Baths are typically filled into a type of container known as a [[Bathtub]] which holds the water in. While taking a bath it is typical that one strips naked and then gets into the bathwater. In order for relaxation, most people prefer their baths to have hot water rather than a [[Cold Bath]]. Baths can be taken in places other than bathtubs such as [[Hot Spring]]s or any natural body of water can be used to go [[Skinny Dipping]] in.

| style="border-bottom:3px solid #CCCCFF" | A substance that makes the [[Bath]]water full of very soapy foam.

The soap suds created from the bubble bath are usually seen as useful product for [[Convenient Censoring]] in bath scenes. Sometimes during bubble bath scenes many bubbles can be seen floating around the bathroom.

|-
| style="border-bottom:3px solid #CCCCFF" | When a long haired character takes a bath with their hair down completely. When a character usually has their hair tied up when out in their lives, the bath can be one of the rare instances when they have their hair down in the bath to completely relax. Sometimes this isn't the case, in Japanese culture it is common for people to tie hair when entering the ofuro so they don't end up leaving pieces of their hair in the bathwater that others will use so it may be somewhat rare for long haired bathers to take baths with their hair completely down.

|-
| style="border-bottom:3px solid #CCCCFF" | A position where the bather has both of their legs parallel against each other in the bath.

Sometimes it is also a way of showing discomfort from bathing in a small area or trying to make room for a second bather to get into the other side of the bathtub.

! style="background:#F2F2F2;" align="center" | [[Shower]]
! style="background:#F2F2F2;" align="center" | ''[[Cosmic Fantasy 2]]''
|-
| style="border-bottom:3px solid #CCCCFF" | A method of bathing that involves a person to stand naked over a running water source that sprays water onto their body. Showers are typically taken by using a device known as a shower head which will spray many small streams of water onto the bather at high pressure and is usually done so over a floor that has a drain on it so the water doesn't flood the area. Unlike baths which are used for both cleansing and relaxing, showers sole purpose is for cleansing and is usually considered to be a lot quicker and more clean that a bath. Showers have become the most standard method of bathing by the late 20th century in western culture. Most bathrooms in the west have a shower tub combo which places a shower head over a bathtub where the user stands in an empty bathtub that is closed off by a shower curtain to take a shower. In Japanese culture, the shower is usually separated from the tub and it is utilized as part of a bath during a furo session where they would shower first before getting into the bathtub to keep the bathwater water clean. Showers can still be taken out in the wild such as through rain or a waterfall while skinny dipping.
