This is a chronologic listing of bathing scenes that appeared in anime, manga and other related media before the 1960s. Due to no bathing scenes having yet to be discovered from most of the years of the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s, everything before the 1960s decade will be listed on this page.

1935

August 3rd, 1935

"Mickey's Fire Brigade"

Mickey realizes that there is a woman upstairs who needs saving. They find Clarabelle Cow locked in the bathroom taking a Bath in a Clawfoot Bathtub and singing to herself, unaware that the hotel is on fire. After Goofy unsuccessfully warns her through the transom, Mickey and Donald break the door down using Goofy as a battering ram. Clarabelle is alarmed and thinks that Mickey, Donald, and Goofy are kidnappers. As Clarabelle is screaming for the police and hitting them with her scrub brush, the three firefighters lift her bathtub, with Clarabelle still in it, and shove it out the window. Clarabelle sails through the air in her tub, and slides down a ladder to the ground. The three firefighters then land in the bathtub. The film ends with Clarabelle continuously hitting them with her brush before she is then arrested offscreen for assaulting fire rescue operators and calling them kidnappers.
