Personally unless it's an ecchi series I don't care for it.

Story + characters come first
Usually fan service just gets in the way or adds nothing. In ecchi the point is to just cram as much in as possible and write it off as comedy but there are much better and even smarter comedies that don't even touch the stuff. I think Kill la Kill is one of the few to use it as empowerment or something about duality but most shows don't really try that hard or just stick to harem/dxd rip off

Don't really care, I can always skip or fast forward the scene if it's annoying

Without fanservice, anime would lose that horny (but well populated) 13-18 demographic.
We wouldn't want the industry to collapse now would we?

Fanservice is cool. I generally don't mind it if there's fan service in an anime, though I'd prefer that it's limited. It becomes annoying though if there's an excessive amount (which is probably why I avoid ecchi anime most of the time) of it or if it ruins the atmosphere in a scene.

As a ecchi enthusiast fanservice is the usual for me. Although it can ruin things as in Highschool of the Dead where they made a character in the story for just fanservice. It annoyed me how you can emphasize them on a character with slow motion scenes and sound effects. Otherwise its fine :)

By now, I have gotten used to it. Though I don't dislike it, sometimes it's excessive and just ruins the anime. Specially when they decide not to show the story just for the sake of fan servicing.

I'm torn on it. On one hand, I find anime girls attractive. On the other, it's completely unnecessary and adds nothing to the show.

That's right! I'm proud to be an ecchi enthusiast! I think I've only seen maybe 6 shows where even I found the fanservice to be terrible.

Don't go over the top with it
Don't do it during a serious scene
Don't do it only to kill time bc you can't think of writing anything else

Fanservice is alright in moderation but in a lot of "serious" series it starts creeping up way too much. Don't really care as much in comedy or ecchi series because it's expected in those way more often.

I like fan service when there's an actual reason for it, rather than it being forced onto whatever story there is.
When there's some shitty reason made up, like "The air con isn't working so we all need to walk around in our swimsuits" (Gokokku no Brynhyldr I'm looking at you..) it's just really shit. Ends up detracting from the story.

If it's done well in a series where it belongs, then I don't mind. High School DXD does it well.

If it stops in the middle of an action scene, or exploits rape for sexual gratification then it's bad.

What annoys me very much about fanservice is the term itself.

So some asshole came up with the idea to name that stuff "fanservice" and what the fans do ? Accept that, and happily so, obviously. :wall/head:

I mean WTF?

That's not a service to fans, that is selling the main stuff to an audience that wants that.

I don't mind fanservice infact I like it. As long as its not mood breaking or makes me uncomfortable Im ok. I like fanservice more so for comedy, infact Haganai did this greatly and it's one of my all time favorites.

^ this is a case of well-handled nudity that serves a purpose.

Unlike OP, I actually can't stand random boobs everywhere in my regular anime, but I'm totally okay with a good ecchi once in a while.
