TMNT here too, but my first exposure was the one with Zack and Caitlyn https://youtu.be/J3dCsQ73dHU?si=hsU0Fxq0uXzBMczY

Fuckin' TMNT here too. I liked tickling before that but seeing the episodes introduced the whole idea of being restrained and tickled. Might as well get them all posted. https://youtu.be/ZPW7mWke4pE?si=WnRjUkUVHqSrnD0W&t=55 Higher quality of the alien scene, and in 5 languages https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mah-UVlH4NI

>>55952 This image reminded me of an old website I used to browse that had TONS of tickling images, back in the days where I would mostly find material in sites like TMF or directly on Google. The banner of the website was this one, and I remember iconic images like this girl being tickled on a white X-frame by other 2 girls inside a spa or something. I added some other images I remember from it. https://xbooru.com/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=137655 https://xbooru.com/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=458989 https://rule34.xxx/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=116080 https://rule34.xxx/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=197426 https://rule34.xxx/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=1756981

>>55969 On a side note, I also remember back in the days I used to enjoy a lot the Palcomix tickling comics. They had a ton of comics, sadly just a few involving tickling

For me it was the scenes from digimon frontier, the one from Kiki's delivery service and the one from Tarzan

Says or else so I'm gonna assume that personal stories work too. For me it was a bunch of stuff. In kindergarten there happened to be two big things. My teacher apparently had a tradition called "birthday tickles". In which the student(s) whose birthday it is comes up to the front of the class, picks a feather from her jar of "birthday feathers". Once chosen, she'd take the feather and gently use the feather, stroking how ever many times it took to get to the students age. From my knowledge, the tickling generally only ever landed on bare skin so like, arms and necks. I remember it was the end of the year. And since I had a summer birthday I had to wait for my birthday tickles at the end of the year. Unfortunately at the time, we had a sub. Our teacher had to take leave because she got pregnant. I remember being so fucking disappointed because I had a really pretty teacher. Um I also had the classic baby sitter. Tall, blonde, always wearing flip flops and had a hippy drippy sorta attitude. I remember one time being at her house and getting the nerve to tickle her feet while we were watching Scooby-Doo. She'd wiggle her toes, scrunch her feet and she bared it. Til she looked back and down at me, smiling and saying "That tickles~" before giggling and winking at me. I remember getting real hot in the face. But the confirmation was finding big foot fantasies on deviantart lol. I got more if y'all wanna hear, just can't garauntee consistency.

>>55952 >>55969 The Tickleague artist is still around, but unfortunately doesn't do proper tickling art any more. They did a remake of their Pan/Caterpy picture a few months back, but their old Twitter account got nuked and I haven't seen it anywhere since which is a damn shame.

>>55980 Does anyone have the original and remake?

Honestly I used to regularly tickle girls feet in choir. It was a game I had with two girls specifically I was friends with to see how long they could last out before we got back to lessons. Then one day I came across two specific videos on youtube that really awakened me to the fetish. One where a blond maid on a small black leather couch was being punished for cleaning poorly by being tickled with her own feather duster. I specifically remember her saying "no, no!" before throwing her arms up and laughing hysterically...I have never found that video since. The second video was Charlotte Toadied. I absolutely loved her feet and how chunky and wrinkly they seemed. Watching Kitty use her nails on her was lovely.

>>56027 Someone else has the same favorite video as me, lol. Charlotte toetied is the best for me too. It checks all the right boxes. Kitty is a really aggressive ler who is clearly having fun, she does this arch squeeze thing I’ve never seen anyone else do, she uses the hairbrush, forces Charlotte’s toes back for the toothbrush, tickles her upper body a bit. Charlotte is super ticklish and hot, the toe ring tops it off. Did Charlotte do anything else with anyone? I feel like she never showed up again at all. Hell, I’d even get her OnlyFans if she had one.

>>55976 Ey I'd love to hear more of these stories if you got any, childhood experiences are always neat to hear about. When I was a kid I used to go to this daycamp during summer and a lot of the girls would wear flip flops and gossip about the whatvever girls gossip about. There was one I was crushing on so one day while she was talking with her friends I decide to hold her feet in a lock and start tickling the shit out of them. I knew I liked feet at the time but this was the first time I started to like tickling. Something about her squirming and wiggling while I attacked her soft feet lit a fire in my belly. After a while I let her go and I'm pretty sure she must've enjoyed it because she'd hang around me and "conveniently" lose her flip flops when I was around. I had a few other tickle sessions with other girls growing up but I still kick myself for not tickling her more.

In high school me and this girl would hang out at DnD. We'd sneak up and tickle the shit out of each other I love the way she squirms around. In the end, I think I won the war...

Thank you, Disney.

Didn't read them in Swedish myself, but this Swedish children's book series included >a scene of protagonist Sune and his girlfriend Sophie being in amusement park ride, and him spending the time tickling Sophie's belly button that is literally described as deathly ticklish as she beg him to stop >a scene where Sune's parents, including his mom, are relentlessly tickled until they agree to be more ecological Thanks for the fetish, Anders and Sören.

>>55945 >>56067 Probably these two together. I didn't have much exposure to other kids, much less girls, as a child so nothing in that regard. And I think the Tarzan scene was the first time I'd ever seen any sort of media with a female tickled. Given how like 99% of tickle scenes in anything were /M it almost felt forbidden. Oddly enough I didn't get the foot bug which I guess is because I never saw the April scene, and why I find it grossly overrated instead.

>>56093 where can I read this

>>56107 Libraries I suppose, if the books are translated to your language.

>>55969 Are you positive this are all from the same artist? Because the sailormoon and the pokemon ones look like Hatsumi Ryoumoto (嶺本八美) to me!

>>60176 The Sailor Moon and Pokemon ones are definitely Hatsumi Ryoumoto, a different artist from the others. Somehow the west seems to have completely missed the fact they're the original Tickleague artist, probably because they don't do much real tickling art these days.

>>60176 I have no idea who is/are the artist(s), I just remember the website with all those images

>>60194 Wait anon, so the Tickleleague artists is still making art? What's their twitter or pixiv?

>>55976 Did you ever tickle your babysitter again?

I don't know if this was the full blown awakening per se but it definitely contributed to it. A First Aid Manual with Photographic Guides. Something about seeing how to wrap gauzes around a barefoot ankle or how to prop up their feet on a chair under a towel roll to help circulation sparked something in my stupid kid brain

it was about 1st grade on the playground. We had this playground with bars pretty close together on this bridge portion. One time this blonde girl sat down and got her feet stuck between the bars. Out of nowhere this boy comes and somehow has the balls to take off her shoes and socks. Mind you her soles are about face level cause of the bridge. She’s confused until he starts to tickle her feet slowly. She doesn’t mind it though and just giggles. I watched this and something about the novelty of seeing a girls bare feet, having your face up close to them, touching the soles, along with her being a blonde which I didn’t see often, awakened something in me. Anyways he stops after only a few seconds and gives her shoes back. A few days later I convince him to challenge her to see how long she can take tickling her feet again. He refused cause it was weird. I asked again a few days later and he agreed. We told her about it and she said fine it could be fun. That day on the playground she put her feet in the bars again. Me and the boy each grabbed a foot and took her shoes and socks off. We got to tickling, but faster this time. She’s laughing her head off. It isn’t long before she tells us stop. The other boy stopped but I kept going a bit which pissed her off. I could kiss any chance of doing it again goodbye. Probably pissed that other boy off too. He probably got the same awakening that day who knows. Could be reading this very fuckin post

First time I remember witnessing tickling in media that I think gave me my fetish was when I was super young like maybe 4. It was the episode of Full House where Michelle's feet were getting bigger and at the end of a dream/nightmage sequence the whole family tickled her clearly big plastic fake feet. But I remember that scene really sticking with me and likely influenced the crush I had on the olsen twins from that point until they got weird looking post-acting career. Looking back I think I may have Mandella Affected myself bc I definetely remembered watching Nightmare Before Christmas as a kid and seeing Oogie Boogey flipping off Sandy's shoe and tickling her foot and her going crazy with ticklish laughter. Really stuck with me for awhile Imagine my disappointment when I watched it again years later and the actually scene was very different. First time irl was when I was in 2nd grade. It was "nap time" and I remember being near this cute blonde girl I really liked and tickling her feet that were in white stockings. She was really ticklish and was quietly trying to stifle her laughter while crawling away and I crawled after her. Our teacher called me out for being disruptive and made me go do naptime somewhere else. I ended up laying next to a different girl that I didn't necessarily have a crush on but I think younger me thought was at least attractive. She had on either fishnets or dark stockings and I started tickling her feet. I wanted her to react like the first girl but instead she kind of moved her feet around but not in a struggling way. I remember asking her if it tickled and she said no but "it feels good". Looking back I think I may have actually awakened something in her. I remember the first time I typed in tickling into google as an 11 yo knowing that I enjoyed seeing it and the result I clicked on was a m/m site. Very quickly navigated myself to an angelgrounds tier /f site and was that was the first time I got a boner. Around that time my mom was a computer teacher at an elementary school and I remember on days where I was off from school going in with her and I'd sneakily try to get on tickletheater to look at the images. I remember looking at it while there one time and cumming in my pants from it which a big wtf moment but felt good. I didn't actually jerk off until I was like 14 and recorded the Digimon Frontier tickling scene on VHS.

>>55945 >>55944 i blame this scene specifically for spawning my fetish too. someone in the writing room was definitely a ticklefag. there's something about the way their clothes are just barely held back kicks my ape brain circuitry into overdrive. thank you, japanese writers from 20 years ago, you bastards.

>>55944 Can't say exactly when it was, I know it definitely began with watching that Digimon segment or that one japanese Peter Pan cartoon scene when I was maybe 8 or 9? Obviously it wasn't sexual for me yet but I just stood there wondering wtf was going on cause I hadn't really been tickled by anyone in my continuous memory. So I was like "what a weird way to attack someone"

>>62991 >japanese peter pan cartoon oh? post clips pls i'm curious.

https://youtu.be/yoMi-XK7cGc?si=tazhOa-9MsIRoyi6 The cute overreaction in typical Japanese anime style probably activated the neurons back then. (Pity the ler is kinda ugly but my brain was too busy reacting to cute catgirl tickling.) Also Polly Esther was one of my first toon crushes. Will have to commission her being tickled sometime for sure.

So this isn't the awakening just part of the post awakening technically. Because unfortunately when I found out, like REALLY found out it was the only thing my mind could focus on. Particularly back in middle school. I had this art teacher who was... man. She was about 5 feet tall at least. Thin, blonde, super bubbly personality. She was also a mom so a certified milf. She also had a habit of walking around the class barefoot almost every day. The floor was linoleum so maybe she just liked the feeling against her soles. Every so often she'd prop her bare feet up on the desk. They were always pedicured and pretty. Always either blue or pink toes. That said, anytime it'd happen. Safe to say art class became my biggest distraction/favorite part of the day. And now these days I think about how I wanted to tie her wrists to the back of her chair, tie her ankles together and just tickle the shit out of her while ramming my dick in between her arches. Back then it was really simple. Just wanting to paint on her soles and then scrub em clean. Again and again. The only time actual tickling happened was when I was having a bad streak of days. Now something else about this teacher. She was very touchy. She hugged a lot, patted shoulders, and from time to time tickle her male students on the sides. On this particular day, she comes and sits next to me. In a way to where not only is she really close, but she's sit on her knees and I can see her wrinkly milf soles in full view. She's asking me what's wrong, I don't budge. She asks if I wanna talk about it or if I need a hug and I shrug her off. Then out of the blue "What if I tickle ya?". Then this women reaches over and starts tickling my sides for a solid 10 seconds or maybe less, can't remember. I remember being a little jerk about it and didn't laugh. But my brain was absolutely freaking out. I think about that a lot and I remember thinking a lot about it when I got home that day too lol

I remember seeing all three of the '87 TMNT scenes almost consecutively on tv, (yeah old) and that was it for me. I remember specifically the way they animated Zach's soles and toes wiggling while they were feathered really got me. (Also special mention to Olive Oil getting her huge soles licked by cats on the pirate ship) First time a I acted on my desire was shortly after seeing the TMNT, I decided I was going to tickle my older sister. So I got up early, grabbed some string or ribbon or something to tie her ankles together, snuck in her room while she was dead asleep, lifted up the covers at the foot of the bed, carefully tied her ankles together, and scribbled my fingers all over her soles. She jolted awake and started laughing. Fuck, between her laughing and begging, to her toes wiggling and scrunching so fast I about busted in my pants right there.

>>56093 >Sune and the Black Man Means something completely different in Sweden now

Since real experiences also count, I'll give mine. Since I had no siblings, I always enjoyed playing with my babysitter (who for now I'm just going to refer to as Alex) at every opportunity. She was fairly tall, had short brown hair and a very cheerful nature. Anyways, I really liked Batman as a kid, so I'd sometimes pretend to be him, while Alex would be Harley Quinn. One day, Alex had bought some candy before coming over and hid it as part of the game. After a fun chase around the house, I asked her where the candy was, but her lips were sealed. After remembering that one episode of Arthur where DW's imaginary friend is chained up and tickle tortured, I got an idea. I convinced Alex to let me wrap her up with my blanket, where I then tugged off her socks and started scribbling her soles. She started giggling like crazy, but didn't reveal where the candy was until after a few minutes. The way she laughed, her wiggly toes, and her soft soles did something to my brain that day. Whenever we played Batman together, I would always use tickle torture to get "Harley" to confess, and she clearly enjoyed it herself, considering how she playfully cried "Oh no, don't tickle my feet!" at least once. Once I grew up and learned what fetishes were, I finally realized why I enjoyed tickling Alex so much.

This one's a bit of an obscure answer, but it's what did it for me.

>>77013 Huh, I remember this episode. >>63015 There had to be at least one tickle fetishist working on Popeye.

Idk which one it was but I remember in a Goosebumps book where you choose what page to go to, there was a part of the story where “you” get tickled by two girls who are bullying you. The book saying how they tickled you together made me reread it so many times
