While watching cartoons yesterday, I came up with another candidate; Jaheera from Tai Chi Chasers. Her losing one or both shoes is rather unlikey when you consider that her footwear is basically a high heeled version of greaves and sabots (i.e. the leg and foot parts of a suit of armor) and are probably very firmly secured. But I can think of a few funny ways she could be forced to remove them. Say if in a battle on something metal (a ship, a platform etc.) one of the good guys used the symbol for magnet (with 1000 symbols, it's probably in there) to magnetize the deck leaving her stuck to the floor unable to move without taking her boots off. as a follow up (say if she kept chasing them) you could get her out of the way by someone combing "thorn" and "iron" (if fire+strong=explosion then I am guessing that "thorn"+"iron" would = caltrop) and littering the ground making it impassible for an unshod person.

Decent and plausable theory about Rose,Omega. Now how about the Other Anime,Cartoon,and Game women who wear high heels(or flats) and never loose their shoes while in heated action?

I don't know why psychics apply to shoes sometime in the action genre.
Francoise Arnoul aka Cyborg 003 - RE:Cyborg 009: When it comes to fiction I'm able to suspend by disbelief that cyborgs exist but I can't believe that heels will stay on after leaping off a jet with nylon. I totally hopes she loses a heel in the outfit she's in in the movie I think her character design is hot. Hopefully this will be the first movie with cgi shoe loss.

Check out the trailer and tell me she couldn't have lost a shoe.

Wow another trailer that made me think of shoe loss. This is starting to become a running theme.

That's a pretty difficult question to answer since it involves knowing exactly how the mind works and how exactly your brain was damaged by amnesia. I definitely think it starts with an experience in early childhood and develops into a fetish as you get older, but that doesn't preclude the fact that later in life an experience can effect you and develop into a, perhaps more mild fetish. I posted a bit about my early experience in the "first time you saw a woman lose a shoe" thread. It's probably better to have this discussion there.

Faith - Mirror's Edge: I just finished watching a playthrough of this game, and I really liked this character's design (especially the shoes) and the setting of the game. As for how she can lose her shoe, there really isn't much to work with since the story of the game is both very light and short), but since her shoes are a very important element of parkour, I was thinking that'd she would lose one an therefore be handicapped and wouldn't be able to move around as freely, which gets her into trouble when she gets cornered by the City.

Sophie Casterwill - Huntik: I haven't watched much of the show but from what little I've see of it I've understood that it seems to be an amalgam of Indiana Jones and Pokemon. And if you look closely at her sneakers you could see that it is not tightly laced so she could just maybe lose one of her precious sneakers to a booby trap.

Well, she did have a few barefoot scenes in the show (when she was in a karate gi mostly.
Actually, a shoe loss for her could be inegral to the future plot, since Sophie has another mystery on her legs. If you look at the picture, you'll notice that one of her socks is pulled up over her knee, and the other droops. the thing is, that is always how they are in the series, and it's always the same one, you NEVER see her other knee. Since her orgin is a bit of a mystery, I'm wondering if there might be something significant on her other knee (a tatoo, a birthmark etc.) so I can imagine that a shoe loss might be significant, since if she hurts her leg in the process, the others might try and tend to it, and in the process, pull down her stocking, revealing the hidden mark.

That's a good point. I already knew about the karate scenes I didn't care because I'm only into one shoe scenes. Don't you have any characters to put on your list or do you only want to Kitty, Uzuki and Jaheera to lose a shoe?

Well, you could add the oldest sister of the girl on Tai Chi Chasers. I like to keep my lists short, that way it stays interesting. If it happened to every female in every show I ever watched, it would be too common to really care about. Plus, to do that it would have to get really gimmiky, and you know how I feel about that.

I'm assuming the her you mean is Jeharra; as of now from when I am watching, the older sister has only been in one episode (not counting a flashback) For her, I still love the "magnet" idea (actually that might be something they would actually do since one of the male bad guys wears armor shoes too, and none of them do) She also might take them off on purpose in some "soft" scene. it's part of the canon that she has a serios crush on the armored guy, and if there is ever something like a "love" card, I can easily see an episode of them doing mushy stuff, which could include things like barefoot walks on the beach. There alreay was an episode where we saw her in a bed, but like a lot of cartoon characters, she apparantly sleeps in her clothing, shoes included.
The sister is another matter. The magnet trick would not really work with her, since her shoes appear to be bronze, not iron (non magnetic) they are however a lot lower than Jeharra's, coming up only to the ankle, so they would be easier to lose. They sorta look like something you would expect to see on the feet of a female Gundam (actually I'm wondering if the animator has a shoe fetish himself, almost as soon as you meet her, there is a closeup of one of her feet as she puts her foot up on a rock to dust her shoe off.) but the only other thing I can think of, is if it turns out there is a "tickle" card (hey there have been wierder ones already there is already a laugh card and a sad card) Though that could get really dirty, really quick (it is a kids cartoon after all)
Edit:
Giving more bolter to my Magnet plan, todays episode sthowed that there actually is a "Thorn" card
Edit 2: and a "steel" card (steel, iron basically the same)
