 		    Abstract:   The Gainax (anime studio) studio popularised this form of fan service which suggests that animated breasts have complex and exagerated physics.

An interesting term combining the gainax anime studio (Gunbuster, Evangelion) and their propensity for fan service. The origin was a scene in Gunbuster where the female leads breasts have full (enhanced?) motion animation as she walks towards the camera. The term has come to stand for any similarly enthusiastic animation. The interesting thing is that while it may be based on reality it tends to look unrealistic, and catch the eyes too much, in anime.
