Or comedy where you take something that is incredibly brutal and gory but make it SO brutal and gory that it is no longer horrifying, instead being comical.

For Bayonetta, it's enough to look at how long her legs are. yes, long legs are ac typically sexualized trait of women. but hers are so long that she really doesn't look like anything sexy anymore, and yet she still flaunts them every step of the way. She's a caricature of sexualized women in media, and this was very much intentional.

Let me make a parallel to your preference, maybe. So, uh... So, muscles on men are considered sexy, right? But are bodybuilders (in mainstream media, of course - I'm not judging anyone's fetishes) ever presented as something desireable? When they're not meant to be physically imposing or downright monstrous, they usually aren't cast as a serious half of a romantic relationship.
