Why does ass get neglected in terms of fanservice or even character design? I can't remember one girl that specifically has a nice behind, but I've lost count of all the completely over the top boobs Ive seen in anime. Don't japanese people like behind? Personally, I'd prefer a girl with a nice hourglass figure and behind than a girl with a huge rack and absolutely nothing else.

I recall Yoko having a "DAT ASS" moment in episode 1 of Gurren Lagann. That count?
This love for Hirasawa Yui consumes me, washing over my dirty weeaboo body with a cleansing warmth that allows me to reach greater heights. It inspires me to be a better man; not the man they deserve, but the man she deserves. Yui, I love you. With everything I have. You are my one, my only. Mai waifu.

Totally agree. One of the things Code Geass did really right.

I think the fascination with panties trumps a love of butt cheeks. I mean, front back, or underneath; a panty shot kinda covers everything.

Also, code geass did make an effort to focus on the human form.

True. Anime is more obsessed with panties than the things panties are covering.

Because people notice the front before the behind.

Course you might get caught looking if your target is the front;
from behind, the subject could be walking away and you could still be looking...

just sayin :P

Yeah, but the Major's posterior is a prosthetic right? How does that work exactly anyways? You walk into a Prosthetic Body shop like victoria secret and say, hey I like the way the back end is on this model? I can't even say that with a straight face LOL

But really, that might just make me watch Ghost in the Shell..

Maybe :P

I would say panty-shots count as ass fan-service but maybe it's harder to make a nice looking ass in anime?

it doesn't always get neglected, but i prefer ass over boobs, so i can sympathise, i could take a stab at the reason, but i'm not that sure, AlexSadist-sama could be partly right, but it would only be partly, could be that the producers think majority of the general public would rather more of the attention be focused on boobs.

Watch Ro-Kyu-Bu or Softenni, get BD rips to see it without sunflowers and shit blocking it.

Because You need some nice sporty ass.

A particularly good anime with sufficient derriere visuals in it is Strike Witches. Enjoy, OP.

I see plenty of ass when watching anime. Maybe you just haven't seen enough shows yet? :-D

Neglected? Hardly.


But some Japanese may probably prefer to neglect the ass part a little because it's one of the weakest part of most of their women.

I don't really think they are neglected. People have provided some examples already.

Completly disagree that they are neglected, but i do believe that compared with boob shots, they are smaller in number, but they aren't scarce or anything

I agree. Hamyuts Meseta has both ample front and rear bumpers.Noloty too. Hmmm...The Book of Bantorra has babes everywhere - Queen's Blade, too although most do also have humongous boobies to boot.
