| This is supposed to be a serious thread, please take your joke answers else where. I've seen threads like this in the past but I wanted to get an image for myself what the general feeling is. There's no doubt a large number of shounen girls are well endowed, much like every other random male in shounen will have a six pack, the question is not about that, its about what you feel about that and why you feel it. Here is my own feelings on the subject to whom it may concern. I like big breasts, I think there is an inelegance to them and yet they make me feel warm and safe, this is not an opinion but a feeling. Simultaneously however I have a voice of common sense in me that says big breasts are a shameful thing that you should be ashamed for liking. I don't think I'm alone when it comes to big breast shame, search your heart and you know it to be true (especially for the guys), for me the question then becomes what is right? Is the shame correct or is the warm feeling correct. After battling with my feelings I came to the conclusion that the warm feeling must be correct, that it's not immoral to have big breasts. The feeling comes from within me and so it is genuine, the shame is imposed from society and is artificial, designed to socially engineer society in the image of some collective idea of what is moral and proper. Now with that out of the way, do I think that all characters should be well endowed. No. If I like chocolate that doesn't mean that vanilla should cease to exist. I merely think that the stigma surrounding large breasts is unfounded in reason. What cup sizes characters have is up to the artists beauty standards, most characters are designed to be beautiful after all with some obvious exceptions. what do you say, am I making any sense at all?  |

 Big Breasts  Normal Breasts  Small Breasts  No Breasts No shame in liking any of them. And all forms of Breasts are okay. Even the well endowed and those... lacking. Also I am a guy. |

| I'm no lady, but even I find anime breast sizes ridiculously over the top. |
| I'm no chick, I don't know what circles you were in but in my circles we only talked about big tits and we all love big tits If I see big tits I will be happy and I will always respect a chest like that, big tits are to be celebrated |

| Big boobs are nice, normal boobs are nice, small boobs are slightly nicer. |
| Women like breasts just like men do, so all sizes are good. |

Sounds like several ladies who will complain on just about anything. There's women out there who aren't happy unless the world is perfectly in their image, and even then they'll still find something to complain about. |
| Hi, female MAL member here x) Idk how you got the idea that big boobs are somehow shameful, it's literally just genetics and stuff that decide how big they grow. Personally, I don't really like them big. Once they reach a certain size, they just become disgusting, floppy meatsacks, there's nothing sexy about that, and there's a reason why most women with natural breasts above a certain size (who have access to it) get reduction surgery. What's aesthetically pleasing to me is a B or C cup, it's a good handful, big enough to fill out clothes really well and have some great cleavage but not so big they lose their shape, flop around a ton, fuck up your back and are sweatpools on the underside. I think it's tragic that anime seems to be moving further and further into the "bigger is better" extreme, because that absolutely doesn't fit my personal taste, but I'm aware I'm not the target demographic of most anime 🤷♀️ Maybe I'm unfairly judging, but I feel like the whole trend in Japan to have more and more singles means tastes in anime boobs might be getting out of hand specifically because more and more guys don't ever get to touch real boobs, so their standards are completely out of whack, and since they're the target demographic, the boobs of anime girls just continue to become more and more unrealistic and inconvenient in size. Shoujo kinda has the opposite problem, where it's meant to comfort girls over their small boobas, so 99% of shoujo protagonists are flat as a board and their "perfect" boyfriends "totally don't mind" because that's some weird fantasy too. I just want to see more regular-sized, medium tits again. There's a reason those are the average, yet they are basically entirely absent in most anime because there's only completely flat or gigantic balls dangling around, zero middle ground. Really frustrating to someone who just likes them, well, normal. |
| Well...I mean...they are not big fat voluptous round anime enough, and your fat wall of texts is full of lipit, no other nutrion to be found. |
Help! I need somebody. Help! Not just anybody. Help! You know I need someone. Helpppppp!  |
| It's no important at all. I don't watch anime for that so I ignore whatever size cup they have. But when in first episode there are already many scenes which show big breasts, especially oversized ones, it's a sign of mid anime usually, speaking from experience.  |

| Much like in real life, cup-size varies. I don't care one way or the other about the size of fictional-characters' breasts, because that crosses a bit too much into the realm of body-shaming for my liking... |

| Hi and thank you for the reply SleepySera said: I mean you're preaching to the choir but I have literally had heated discussions over this. I would be elated if its just a guy thing that affects a small minority but as I mentioned I too did feel shame for liking them when I was younger.Idk how you got the idea that big boobs are somehow shameful, it's literally just genetics and stuff that decide how big they grow. SleepySera said: I was not so concerned with real life when I made the thread, obviously real women with large breasts likely view them as a mixed bag in terms of being sexy but possibly inelegant/saggy and inconvenient for the purpose of things like picking clothes exercise , not having back pain etc. What I'm more interested in was aesthetics. Now you say you don't like them big but do you just hate a person for having having big breasts? I kinda swung 180 degrees since my youth and now I basically operate under the principle boobs are woman muscles so a strong character should have big boobs which makes no sense I know but its just the feel of it.Personally, I don't really like them big. Once they reach a certain size, they just become disgusting, floppy meatsacks, there's nothing sexy about that, and there's a reason why most women with natural breasts above a certain size (who have access to it) get reduction surgery. SleepySera said: I often hear B and C cups as the "limit", but again I think to myself, why should a woman born a bit bigger in that regard be labelled a freak? Personally I'm seeing this from the cuteness angle and not so much from the sexiness angle, i.e. look at her go with that inconvenient mountain on her chest. I'm not sure if you get what I'm saying xDWhat's aesthetically pleasing to me is a B or C cup, it's a good handful, big enough to fill out clothes really well and have some great cleavage but not so big they lose their shape, flop around a ton, fuck up your back and are sweatpools on the underside. I think it's tragic that anime seems to be moving further and further into the "bigger is better" extreme, because that absolutely doesn't fit my personal taste, but I'm aware I'm not the target demographic of most anime 🤷♀️ SleepySera said: That is for sure a part of why large breasts are so overrepresented but see I specifically said this thread wasn't about that xD It's very sad but what can you do about it?Maybe I'm unfairly judging, but I feel like the whole trend in Japan to have more and more singles means tastes in anime boobs might be getting out of hand specifically because more and more guys don't ever get to touch real boobs, so their standards are completely out of whack, and since they're the target demographic, the boobs of anime girls just continue to become more and more unrealistic and inconvenient in size. SleepySera said: Ok now you're starting to get to the heart of this, so if there is this trend in shoujo does it mean that there is a general feeling of malaise associated with large breasts from the female perspective? I kinda wanna understand where it comes from, is it just jealousy, is it the difference in perspective you talked about earlier how there's "nothing really good" about large breasts, why the dislike? I remember I had a classmate in high school who was constantly being bullied by her female friends for her huge rack (it wasn't even that huge, maybe a D cup), that smells more like jealousy to me but when you have adults complaining I feel like it must be something else.Shoujo kinda has the opposite problem, where it's meant to comfort girls over their small boobas, so 99% of shoujo protagonists are flat as a board and their "perfect" boyfriends "totally don't mind" because that's some weird fantasy too. SleepySera said: Don't get me wrong, I hate huge anime tits as they are generally presented, real boobs droop and bounce and rest on the ribcage in a satisfying way, anime breasts have anti-gravity devices running full blast, they don't feel like anything. B-C cups definitely look better in that sense because they're not really supposed to bounce that much anywayI just want to see more regular-sized, medium tits again. There's a reason those are the average, yet they are basically entirely absent in most anime because there's only completely flat or gigantic balls dangling around, zero middle ground.

HikariShoumeiron said: What I'm curious about is does it hurt your ability to empathize with a character if they have big breasts, I wanted to have at least one character with large breasts in my own story but I don't want the ladies to hate her. Straight woman here. I don't really pay attention to anime girls' boob size, to be honest. Small, mid, large, they don't bother me. |
Rinrinka said: I'm surprised so many people are saying they don't mind one bit, where are all those who I saw complaining in other threads grrr xD It's no important at all.

But when in first episode there are already many scenes which show big breasts, especially oversized ones, it's a sign of mid anime usually, speaking from experience. |
| Wish there was a bit more variety than just either cutting board level flat or planet sized backkillers that seems to be common. Seeing some more average sizes would be a good idea just for realism and variety in character design instead of everyone needing to be like supermodel body |

Anjuro said: What I'm more interested in was aesthetics. Now you say you don't like them big but do you just hate a person for having big breasts? Oh, no, not at all. I'm just frustrated that super big is becoming more and more the ONLY size we see, but I don't have an issue with big boobs per se. It's really just the oversaturation that bothers me. I know anime is a fantasy and doesn't HAVE to follow reality, but since reality tends to favour my preferred boob size (medium), I personally would like anime to reflect that - as in, most women having average breasts and then you have the occasional one with more and the occasional one with less. Anjuro said: I often hear B and C cups as the "limit", but again I think to myself, why should a woman born a bit bigger in that regard be labelled a freak? I think that's going a bit far, I don't think any sane person would consider someone a "freak" for having bigger than average boobs (unless we're talking extreme hentai sizes; once you can cover entire buildings or cities with them I'd say the freak label is probably fair 😓). It's simply a matter of personal preference for me, in the same way I prefer dark haired girls over blonde haired ones, or think taller guys are more my jam. I just think B/C cup is a pleasant middle ground that doesn't go too far into either extreme. It looks good and not disproportionate, that's what it boils down to 🤷♀️ In general, humans tend to find the middle ground most appealing - someone with regular weight instead of super obese or starving to death, someone with a normal, pronounced chin, not a Thanos one but not a receding one either, and so on. Personal preference will always differ some, but on average, we tend to just...like something not too extreme. Extremes are usually considered flaws. And people (and characters, of course, since they are supposed to "be" people) can be absolutely loveable despite being "flawed", so the idea of hating a character simply for having big boobs is silly. ...though if the entire character only exists to push their oversized boobs around for fanservice, then yeah ofc I may hate them, but that's an issue in the character writing then, if their boobs are their only recognizeable trait, and not about the size itself. Anjuro said: Ok now you're starting to get to the heart of this, so if there is this trend in shoujo does it mean that there is a general feeling of malaise associated with large breasts from the female perspective? The opposite, actually. I mean, I don't wanna generalize too much, but I think a lot of women aren't entirely happy with their boobs. Be it size or shape, there's always such an insane amount of societal expectations to how female bodies "should" look pushed onto everyone from a young age, I would be more surprised if everyone was just comfortable and happy with how they are. BECAUSE a lot of guys like them big, there is a lot of pressure to have satisfyingly large boobs. I think that's why shoujo protagonists being endlessly worried about their small boobs is such a common cliché, because for a lot of girls, that's very relateable, especially during their teenage years, which is the demographic shoujo is for. Maybe that worry about not being able to live up to size expectations can lead to hate/jealousy for those more well-endowed too, but I don't wanna speculate too much 😅 |
| Obviously the outrageous proportions are indicative of major oversight on the producer/animator/character designer's part Beyond that, I think a lot of anime try too hard to attain the "waifu appeal" by trying to make their female leads fall into every category. A lot of female leads for instance are drawn with a large chest and hips but then, when they zoom out, suddenly she's super slim with pencil-thin legs It doesn't make sense |
| It definitely feels like its becoming more prominent in anime to upsize all girls cup sizes. Another poster recently did a thread showcasing that, with the recent example of the new Megumin focused konosuba series. Comparing all the girls manga counterparts to their anime counterparts, and all of them (with the exception of Megumin herself) grew at least 2 cup sizes, some even growing 3-4 sizes. It was kind of shocking seeing them side by side. As someone who prefers smaller-medium breast sizes, its an unfortunate trend. Not that I think (at least I hope) too many girls take what they see in anime as indicative of what all guys like. It could also just be a "this is fantasy, so lets make everything bigger and more fantastic" mind set too. who knows. |
| we all can agree that breast sizes are just ridiculous in all of anime and what is even more ridiculous is people liking them but well people like what they like so can't be done anything about it. i won't lie but these big breasts look disgusting on most of these anime girls, there are few on which they suit but most will look better with medium to small breasts. i despise how small breasts don't recieve as much love as the big ones even after being the superior type, i mean extremely big breasts just look so ugly especially if they are largely out of proportions compared to the rest of the body but guys these days love that, i have no idea why. i would like it if small breasts are also loved and normalised. they are the best kind of breasts and that's a fact. |

| You say it's shameful to like big breasts, but I've heard the opposite more frequently. If you like small breasts a lot of people will call you a pedo, even if you like small breasts on adult women. People shouldn't be shamed for their preferences. |

The size isn't even the biggest issue, pun intended, but they are usually shaped like really cheap fake boobs... If that's the size they want to draw, they should be designed around with a fitting frame, and abide the laws of gravity. |
| As a woman I like bigger boobs too (aestethicly pleasing), but it all depends how the fanservis is handled. For some reason I hate some fanservis in One Piece but absolutely love Mashima's fanservis in Edens Zero and Fairy Tail. I dunno something about his portrayal of woman speaks to me. But most of the times I do not care But as some people metioned I would love more sizes happening. As there is mostly big or non-existent and almost nothing in between. Having more variety would be nice |

It is such an unholy sight to see inhuman sizes in shows these days fr |

| Not a woman, but a male artist who has worked with nude models over the course of a few years. Sometimes I'm like "...Yeah. This works." But other times I'm like "...Okay, yeah, I get it. Ecchi and/or hentai. But, I have to question a few things here." while comparing one series to another to see which show falls under "realistic," "idealistic but reasonable," or "completely fantastical." I'm referring to both size and shape by the way. Inflated balloons just aren't as hot as they used to be when you learn a thing or two about anatomy. |

| Why should you be ashamed for liking them lol. You have the right to like them all you want. The only thing immoral is to stare at someone who has big breats. |
 |
| I prefer if anime is realistic about breast size (within the bounds of reality, you know). However, if the character has breasts bigger than their damn head I roll my eyes so hard it hurts (and 95% of that time it makes me auto drop a series as well because that shit is annoying to me. But to each their own. You do you). |
 |
| We need more big titty mature women in anime and that's the bottom line, because ryo-san said so.. |
 |
| Not that anime has to be realistic or anything, but I prefer realistic cup sizes for the women of anime. I roll my eyes when they give girls, especially when they're young highschool or heck, sometimes even middle school girls, borderline literal melon-sized, well, melons. It just kind of becomes "too much of a good thing". |

I think part of the problem here seems to be that what is extreme cannot be agreed upon by everyone. regarding fan service, of course a character who is literally only there for fanservice purposes is not going to rank high with the ladies (and not even many of the guys surprisingly). I'm curious though, does it somehow turn you off if a big breasted character does end up having some fan service scenes on top of her regularly scheduled plot. I imagine the answer is no but once again I feel like there is a general feeling of disdain when it comes to big breasted characters. SleepySera said: Alright so now with that you're saying I'm starting to get the picture that there might be a bit of a jealousy aspect going on.

Its very true what you said that society expects a lot from womens breasts but at the end of the day you only have what you were born with so doubtlessly there's going to be some inadequacies. Keep in mind that I said that in response to a common shoujo trope, not about how people feel reading and watching anime/manga characters. I really hope you don't walk away from this thinking "oh they all just hate on big anime tiddies 'cause they're jealous since theirs are small" because that's not what I was trying to say at all. At least to me, what it boils down to is realism, as I said at the start, and judging by many of the other replies in this thread, that's probably the most common sentiment: as a boob-haver, you're gonna be intimately familiar with how they look and function, what downsides they have, and so on. Even if you're on the flatter end yourself, you probably have seen friends suffer with the unique troubles of their big rack. They are a normal part of your anatomy, not just a sexy object on others, so it takes a lot of suspension of disbelief to see the way many anime treat the boobs, because it's just so completely unhinged from reality. Anjuro said: I don't know if its reasonable to want the ladies to be average in the sense that the protagonists of anime are not exactly average but in any case I see your sentiment. They kind of are, though? Of course it depends on the specific anime you're watching, but a TON of anime portray their male protagonist as a Japanese everyman; they're usually black- or at most brown-haired, an average size for their age, an average build muscle-wise (and often don't even look ripped even if they work out), none of them have to walk around with a troublingly gigantic schlong either, and so on ;) They're just your average normal guy because that's easy for the viewer to relate to. But can you really say the same is true for most anime girls? Do those portray the Japanese everygirl visually? Last time I checked, the majority didn't run around with boobs bigger than their head. And that's kinda what it boils down to for me, that there's usually SOME realism, but it never extends to boob size, shape and movement, so there's always a disconnect. And that exists regardless of sexuality, btw, because even when you're attracted to boobs (as a bisexual or lesbian), as a fellow boob-haver you still have this inherent understanding of, well, what it's like to have boobs since you have some yourself, so it's hard to look at average anime boobas and not feel that disconnect. |
| I guess OP wanted some girl to post something along the lines of 'big anime boobs makes her insecure about her own' kind of thing. Sometimes IRL women do have breasts larger than what you see in anime. However girls like that are also often fat. |

If anything the average anime protagonist is way below average. Like they are straight up offensively pathetic... I had to go out of my way to read trashy josei romcoms to find respectable male characters. This is kind of in the wish fulfillment category if anything, but yea... |
SleepySera said: Hearing you loud and clear. I guess my actual takeway from this conversation is that women can't separate the male fiction of breasts as an object that brings us joy from the drab reality of what its actually like to have them, moreover women themselves have a complicated relationship with breasts on one hand wanting them to be bigger/different due to societal pressure on the other hand being aware of the inconvenience. I feel like I still didn't get a clear image of what people think on the subject but certainly seeing the response so far I guess most people don't seem to mind large breasts that much.Keep in mind that I said that in response to a common shoujo trope, not about how people feel reading and watching anime/manga characters. I really hope you don't walk away from this thinking "oh they all just hate on big anime tiddies 'cause they're jealous since theirs are small" because that's not what I was trying to say at all. SleepySera said: I suppose for me the question remains why draw the line at boobs when it comes to realism, some series portray average people with conspicuously large racks and so you might raise the question of what gives there but in most shows I'm familiar with there is already a heavy suspension of disbelief at play. I guess what you say about how you can't separate the fiction from reality when you have them might make sense but somehow I find it hard to believe unconditionally (I feel like I as a guy am like a B cup and I don't feel that way xD).At least to me, what it boils down to is realism, as I said at the start, and judging by many of the other replies in this thread, that's probably the most common sentiment: as a boob-haver, you're gonna be intimately familiar with how they look and function, what downsides they have, and so on.

Anjuro said: Hell no that's not true when I look in my heart. That's just projecting onto others. ^^'Simultaneously however I have a voice of common sense in me that says big breasts are a shameful thing that you should be ashamed for liking. I don't think I'm alone when it comes to big breast shame, search your heart and you know it to be true (especially for the guys), for me the question then becomes what is right? The stuff I admit to liking in public goes far beyond banal stuff like "big boobs". There's no reason to feel ashamed about the things I like, because just like my hair or eye color or any other of my traits, I didn't choose to like them. It just happened to be like that. :) Btw, I'm not even into giant tits. More into medium (B to C). Also, the women in my family are pretty much 100% endowed with anime boobs, so people criticizing them as not normal for example I usually find pretty rude. |

Anjuro said: I'm on the bigger size myself so I guess I'm more inclined to empathize with a girl with big breasts (at least in certain cases). But either way, at least in my case, boob size have absolutely no impact in my like or dislike of characters.HikariShoumeiron said: What I'm curious about is does it hurt your ability to empathize with a character if they have big breasts, I wanted to have at least one character with large breasts in my own story but I don't want the ladies to hate her. Straight woman here. I don't really pay attention to anime girls' boob size, to be honest. Small, mid, large, they don't bother me. |

| I don't think it matters all that much, in the end in every demographic, the characters body shape are clearly created to appeal to their own target audience, nothing wrong with that. |
  Grant me one hour on love's most sacred shores To clasp the bosom that my soul adores, Lie heart to heart and merge my soul with yours |
