Hottest ecchi anime

OP it sounds like you're not into accidental character development. You may have been turned off by all the other generic harem animes, but I have the cure!

To Love Ru
the anime deceives you into believing it's generic when it actually is. You'll be more focused on why the hell your purposely wrong predictions are correct then on looking at the boobies. You will begin to pity the main guy character as he goes through all these different situations, unaware as to how screwed he really is.
9/10
if the mc didn't have brown hair then maybe it would be a 10/10

Monster Musume. Maken-Ki has some pretty nice fanservice too.

High School DxD and Keijo are trash, they are what an ecchi anime should strive not to be.

I'm just exaggerating with High school dxd, but Keijo has extremely weak fan service imo.

yeah man I completely agree
Even though 1st season was not all that good in the end its sequel compensated for that

Only taking the ecchi and nothing else into consideration, I'd still say To LOVE-Ru would be #1 in this department. Then, by the same standard, I'd go with Kiss X Sis in second, then Yosuga no Sora in third, then Monster Musume in fourth.

I'd kind of consider it a stretch to say that a lot of the girls in TLR look like they have really young bodies. Yami, Nana, and Mikan, and *maybe* Momo, but I don't really think Momo would be in the same league as the other three. Then there's Run, Lala, Yui, Saki, Tearju, Mikado-sensei, Risa, so on and so forth, who pretty much lie on the opposite end and have pretty adult bodies.

The main thing I always kind of perceived with TLR is that it didn't really rely on exaggerated proportions as heavily as a lot of other ecchi series did. There are girls with big tits, like Run and Lala, but they're not like, the sort of stereotypical-ecchi rack but still undeniably big. There are girls who aren't really big or small like Haruna or Momo, there's kind-of-sort-of on the smaller side like Yami, there's flat like Nana, so on and so forth. Tearju and Mikado kind of end up going in that direction with the somewhat exaggerated proportions, and that's fine and cool by me, TLR kind of has a good spread of a little bit of everything in pretty much every direction. There's also just the attention to detail in how they're drawn. Run's butt is kind of boy-ish, for example, whereas Lala's is a lot more curvy. So on and so forth. Yabuki is a master at drawing and designing characters and then featuring them as having certain features rather consistently.

As for the accidents, it's kind of a part of the comedy in how absurd they push that element of it, but to say that it's just always accidents is pretty much hyperbole, and even then, cutting out all of the non-accident scenes, the reactions the girls give to said accident scenes can differ pretty drastically. Run responds super positively to stuff like that and actively seeks to invoke it and create it herself. Lala, Risa, Momo, Nemesis - all pretty aggressive in different ways about how they pursue these things and don't get flustered or upset about it, even respond well. On the opposite end there's girls like Yui, Nana, and Yami who don't respond positively at all to these sorts of things. It's a give and take, the series tends to balance itself out in different ways.

Basically, there's a shitton of diversity in the way the characters respond and look and I think it's pretty short-sighted or even outright dishonest to try and paint it like it's just childish looking characters who get flustered with accidents or whatever.

I also think it pushes the envelope with a lot of its scenarios compared to the majority of ecchi series. The amount it shows, whether directly or subliminally (the manga is kind of famous for using the environment to slip shit past censors), isn't something I've really seen be matched, and it brings in different contexts depending on the grouping or the single characters involved (Run's fake photoshoot, Yui's phone call, the ice cream thing with Momo, Haruna's fucking dog, so on and so forth). It isn't all accidents whatsoever, it's just the most prominent part because it toys with that trope to such an absurdity that I've always considered it a form of revelry, like TTGL does with mecha tropes. The falls are caused by far less and are far more surreal and unbelievable and lead to a lot more than just "oh look hand on boob." They'll do things like try to scientifically figure out just why that motherfucker trips so much and consider it inhumanly possible. It's...really, really self-aware about it when it does bring it in, and it's kind of comedic with how stupid it lets itself be about it.

The thing with DxD, on the other hand, was that I found it to be...incredibly basic. It relies primarily on simple exposure and solo shots of girls, even when something involving multiple is taking place, it slows down and does everything in an individual still, kind of like the tentacle scene in the first OVA. It's not as reliant on contextualization or the circumstances surrounding the ecchi, and when it does it's kind of light and simple. Pinning on bed. Tentacles. Dissolving clothes in a fight. It doesn't do anything to make it bombastic or absurd or notable in any way. It's pretty standard fare.

The only main difference I see between it and the most basic stereotype of a "safe" ecchi series is that the girls actively invoke it as much as possible, as opposed to being much else, but even then it's only *some* of them that try for that and others...not so much. If I stop trying to compare it to other series I actually consider to be great ecchi, then I love it and have a great time with it. But if I hold it to the same standard, it's...really, really fucking simple and kind safe about it in a lot of ways and I just don't think it holds up as well in this regard specifically if you end up being into ecchi in general. I wouldn't even put it in my top 10 in this regard, and I think it's kind of like, Iunno, the gateway series for a lot of people who get into these things that doesn't usually hold up as well. It has a lot more mainstream appeal with stuff like the battle shounen elements, and by portraying things as (almost, not every girl in DxD is a super aggressive sexual beast like you seem to be painting it as, some do responding very negatively to the lewdness, most notably Koneko) purely aggressive it makes it seem more lewd than it actually ends up being once you take that context out of it. It's more or less baby's first ecchi in my book. I think it's really, really fucking good at being baby's first ecchi, but...yeahhhhhhh. I don't really think it's that much when held up against a lot of its contemporaries, and I think that it not being as much is kind of why it caught on easier outside of the niche who absolutely adores shit like this.
