Anime that are almost hentai, or come close

They almost / do show nipples

Shows based on Vocaloid originals or involving utaites/producers who are/have been active on Nico Nico Douga (extended to YouTube for newer gens).
While not its own genre, these compositions tend to have a recognisable feel to them.
(Updating as I come across songs, you can poke me to add stuff as well :D)

At some point, I'd have been super hyped for any show with a Vocaloid producer but come late 2010s they've been popping up everywhere :')

*List is roughly sorted by anime based on Vocaloid songs > Male utaites > Female utaites > Producers

A list of satirical anime, ordered A -> Z.

Please let me know if there are any I missed!

Anime that are actually funny

favorite rainbow/colorful animes!! If the characters or overall color palette of the anime is colorful it'll go here no matter the genre!!

♡『Anime with a cute art style or a cute cast of characters!』♡

Fanservice can be distasteful, unnecessary, or passable. And then there's this: fanservice so clever, confident and mindfully self-indulgent that it stops being fanservice and becomes a defining feature of an anime and a remarkable artistic achievement in its own right. Can't even get mad at it.

What this list will NOT contain:
* hentai (even if it has good plot or anything else);
* regular anime with sex scenes, unless the latter are served tastefully, artistically, and are a prominent feature.

Includes examples of both male and female nudity.

This list constitutes my personal views and stances. If something isn't on it, it likely means I haven't watched it. Feel free to shoot me suggestions via DMs, but make sure you have a convincing argument if it's not something that's already on my main manga/anime list. I don't promise it'll end up here, but I will consider all suggestions.

This is a part of a series of stacks that are about artistic tendencies in anime (and that border the fine line between sophisticated and pretentious).

This stack is a work in progress.

Peak comedy anime that you can call goofy, absurd, extreme wackiness, randomly generated…
