| Is it just me who noticed that? Especially, in the case of school related anime. Are anime creators obsessed with swimsuits or what? |
| It is an easy and lazy way to attract viewers. |
 |
| You are probably the only one in 7 billion to notice. Well done |
 |
| You answered that question yourself OP Anime. Also fetishes. |
 |
| Pretty much answered already but it's also cause of the whole "plot sells" meme (basically Anime boobs or abs depending on the show.) |
  Ascended Taste I only came back to this site for the forum sets and to promote my RYM list... Anilist ftw still :dab: |
| Anime girls look good in swimsuits, go figure |
  |
| Because.... fanservice and only fanservice. Nothing more than to just attract more viewers. |

| That's not the case. Obviously you only watch ecchi/harem anime. |
| Be thankful for the wisdom granted to you. |
| Because it's obviously the perfect excuse for easy fanservice. |
| Fanservice man, pure and simple. Now that thing became a staple. |
 |
| Well it's Japan, where countless gods and fetishes resides. Swimsuits just happen to have a lot of sect members. |
 |
| Because content creators understand their fanbase. |
| Cause why not? I like me some tits and ass on the beach. Don't your dick go erect? |

| Because you touch yourself at night. It literally exists because the audience does that. |
  |
| Because those are the best episodes. Ericonator said: -Lofn- said: Not after I've fapped like I just did.Cause why not? I like me some tits and ass on the beach. Don't your dick go erect? weakling |
 |
| I bet you're the first one to notice this, OP. OT: it's just a trope nowadays, kind of like the touring episode or the excursion episode with curry cooking. But while the latter two give you space for relationship development, the beach episode gives space for fanservice. Why wouldn't you include such an episode. |
  |
Check anime stat: 56days....no captain obvious, you are not the only one who notice it...while you are at it, you can also add, Christmas, valentine, onsen, amusement park, new year celebration, and school festival... But set that aside, It doesn't take rocket science to explain "why" so many anime had it... beach episode allow girl to wear skimpy swimsuit...and thats the easiest way to set up fanservice... |

And nope you are wrong about that...if i could recall, Clannad and Madoka doesnt have it...there are probably handful of other that doesnt do swimsuit eps as well.. |
| Nah, it's by far not "every anime". It depends on the genre. If it's shounen or harem or ecchi, or all three, yes, you'll get a swimsuit/beach episode. But if it's a shoujo, josei, seinen or any anime that focuses more on the story than fanservice, you won't get the beach/swimsuit episode. From my favorite anime on my profile, only Gintama has a swimming pool episode, but in a later season. And frankly, they focus more on the male fanservice lol. |
| nothing better than a mid break fanservice |
 |
| You talk about it like if that is a bad ting, OP. |
 |
| You might want to take a closer look. In most cases you'll realize that the animation quality is plummeting for that episode. Pretty much half of it is just panning shots. It's a mid-cour money saver. The creators hope we don't notice if they put a truckload of juicy tits in. As far as production tactics go, I can fap to that. |
 |
| its funny how many people say its just for fan service when thats not really the case as not all shows have high doses of ecchi it can indeed be a fan service episode but Id say that those kinds of episodes exist more so because people swim in real life. Just like Christmas or Festival episodes |

| Because of 3 things: 1. Fanservice, because seeing a handsome character in swimwear is pretty sexy rite? 2. To cool off a bit. Most of the time, beach/any swimsuit related episodes are filler to help us calm down after big things have happened and to help the animators take it easy (beach eps are not that well animated most of the time). 3. Because we as people also go swimming from time to time and letting characters come over more humanly. |

| Being used to swimsuit/beach episodes, its always fun to guess when said episodes is going to happen. Usually these episodes are shown in middle or late in series, but seems like lately studios compete with each other, who airs those earliest. Maybe to try catch more viewers early on airing? |
| I'm in love with swimsuits, so i appreciate every episode with it GLORY TO THE SWIMSUITS |
| when you say swimsuits are you referring to the indoor pool episode, the beach episode, or both? Also, did you notice the skiing trip episode op, i can't rap my head around that one |
 |
| Why do all school anime have to be about students? why don't we have the story of how the most beautiful girl in school falls in love with the janitor , but this is already enamoured of the cook , which is a 200-year-old alien robot with neko ears . This way we've got a more interesting love triangle , haven't we? no? ok , I know ,I suck at that shit. |
| The swimsuit lobby is on the production committee of almost every anime in Japan, pulling strings. I'm surprised you didn't know that tbh, it's an open secret. |
| I probably regret this post by now. |

| Avatar character is Gabriel from Gabriel DropOut. |
| anime i watch usually doesnt have swimsuit episodes |
| Swimsuit episode is that frequent in anime that it's not rare to see anime parodies swimsuit episode. Like in Girlish Number for example when the characters clearly say that's it's for fanservice purpose. |
| There's an unspoken rule within the current gen anime which within ep7~9, there has to be a fan-service episode if it's a school or slice of life anime. Well, don't ask me why Japan does that... My guess is to bump up the BD sales . |
