Following in Tokyo’s footsteps, the Japanese city of Kobe has erected a mecha defender of its own,
the veteran bot Gigantor. It stands at 59.06 feet tall — narrowly defeating Tokyo’s 59-foot-tall Gundam statue.

unconventional (scary) dining

-- (to note: I couldn't think of the trope name for the situation in which a charcter is abducted, or falls, into a dinner/tea party, whereby the main charcater is tense, bewildered, horrified, and/or sobbing in the company of her captors / cruel ones. Another example is when that singer who accompanies Indiana Jones and The Temple of Doom is horrified by the "treats" she cannot bear to eat, like 'chilled monkey brains'.)

The mythographers tell that Zeus was enamored of Europa and decided to seduce or ravish her, the two being near-equivalent in Greek myth. He transformed himself into a tame white bull and mixed in with her father's herds. While Europa and her female attendants were gathering flowers, she saw the bull, caressed his flanks, and eventually got onto his back. Zeus took that opportunity and ran to the sea and swam, with her on his back, to the island of Crete. He then revealed his true identity, and Europa became the first queen of Crete.

Dragged by the collar

Primer:

Quote:

What do you do when somebody's being stubborn or trying to excuse himself from a sticky situation? Force him into it by dragging him away by his collar, of course!

Getting dragged by the collar is often used as a comedic device, most often in anime (though it does pop up in western animation sometimes). The "victim" would, more often than not, be trying to escape an embarrassing predicament (of his own doing) before another person grabs him and drags his butt off to whatever mess awaits him. The victim's loud protests and flailing of arms are optional. Small variants include getting dragged while standing (with the heels skidding on the ground instead of the butt), and stiff, outstretched arms. Sometimes, instead of the collar, characters are dragged by their cheeks, ears, arms, or legs. This is not always used for comedy, however, especially when the one being dragged away is unconscious, injured, or in severe cases, dead.

See also "Necktie Leash". Compare and contrast with "The Load", where the victim actually wants to tag along, but the other characters won't let him. For a "Darker And Edgier" version of this trope, where the very act of dragging causes injury or even the death of the victim, see "What A Drag".
