When I was a kid there were advertisements in my comic books for X-ray glasses, which -- they claimed -- allowed you to see through women's clothing. Only $5! Wow! (and lots of other exclamation points!)
And I always wondered. You know, it would be pretty cool, wouldn't it? And it isn't all that much money; it seems improbable that it would work, but maybe, just maybe...
I never ordered anything like that. For one thing, in second grade I wasn't actually all that interested in girls. For another, my allowance was only 25 cents a week, so even $5 was pretty steep. (And anyway, I always spent it on candy at George's Store.) But I've always wondered.
Well, we have the magic of Japanese fan artists to let us know. Today's search term is "x-ray_glasses", and it won't even cost you $5.
You know, I can't say I'm surprised so many of them are about To Love-ru. Didn't this actually happen in one of the episodes?

I remembered wrong. They were $2, not $5. (In my defense, that was 55 years ago.)

Yup. And, of course, the glasses locked on to Rito's head just before he headed to school. (They were Lala's repair goggles, so she could see inside her mistakes inventions.)

There was a hentai game with something like x-ray glasses, but I forget the name.

In the show, yes.
In the fan art that's being farmed for these posts, gooooood luck.
