This trope is an Anime/Manga exclusive.
Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })In some scenes with couples, there will be a static background shot of a school facility (usually a hallway or yard) or any home/urban/park area, with a vanishing point (generally centered), representing the protagonist's point of view. In the foreground there's a medium shot of almost always a female character with a shy or gentle expression. This is known as the "standing image", in which the character can only be seen in the front usually from the head to the waist.
Similar to a standard Dating Sim or Visual Novel screen (as well as many Flash games). This shot is commonly used as a device to imply romantic involvement.
Might or not have the menu options and decorative frames (in which case it's a parody).

Excel Saga has an entire episode framed around Il Pallazo playing a dating sim and Excel having to live through the choices he makes. The third choice is always "Put it in", not that he ever chooses it.
In the final episode, there's a brief return of these shots... and all the options are "Put It In".

My Little Sister Can't Be This Cute has the male lead introduced to dating sims (against his will), after which he starts seeing menu options whenever he faces a decision. One scene has a shot of his father that matches this trope format.

Love Hina: Specifically Motoko's introduction is very much shot using this type of framing.

There's also a Dating Sim Shot with Saki in the Genshiken manga (and Madarame too).
