Fanservice is not needed in anime at all, and I found it irritating most of the time, but fanservice is one of the key components to gathering audience.

Very, very rarely I can tolerate fanservice, but the 9999999th lady with tripleDs wearing (or sometimes, not wearing...) a bra is too much for me.
I'd rather focus more on the actual story than some character's dirtypillows.

I don't mind fanservice most of the time but it can get annoying...

It is not needed and it bothers me. It's a cheap and effective way to influence people that don't care about story or character development..

Nope, not at all. But that's not going to stop the anime industry from putting it in every single show nowadays.

But still there will be a time when these industries will over do it with their fanservice, then people will get frustrated over time which will force the industries to try new ideas.It's in the human nature.

Some series needs fanservice because they're lacking in some key areas that makes a anime good. Not putting fanservice in a series series these days becomes a risk.

Fanservice to me is basically a back up plan. So if the story and characters doesn't interest the audience, maybe some panty shots and nude scenes would maintain the audience interest.

I consider Monogatari's dialogue to be kind of fanservice as well,so I can't imagine it without it.

On more serious note,I do not mind well-done fanservice if it is not overdone and anime does not suffer because of it or if it is not the main feature of the said title.

Fanservice sell merchandise, which is where the real money is. Anime, for the most party, is just an advertisement tool for Manga/Light Novels and licensed merchandising products.

Fanservice is something where your mileage may vary on (I'm fine with it up to a point), but no. It is not a necessity to an anime. In fact, we probably need an anime that doesn't have it. It's getting kind of tiring...

Cases where it works to the detriment are usually in the panty fighter genre, where the fanservice weighs down on the ability for us to take the female characters seriously, especially since a lot of them are action girls. Highschool of the Dead, High School DxD, and especially Master of Martial Hearts had this for me.

I watched Master of Martial Hearts for shits and giggles to see how bad it was.

It's worse than you'd expect.

I don't see the point in fanservice unless there's nipple showing... Why is it so rare to find nipples in anime I wonder.

Sometimes it is. There are shows that would be nothing without fanservice.

The BD versions have nipples.

I'm not very fond of fanservice, sometimes it's just ridiculous. There are exceptions, of course. Shows like Kill La Kill handle it very well.

I can't do anything with this response, so tell me what do you think is wrong with Kill La Kill and its fanservice?

HOTD was magnificent. The fanservice there was very artistic and with meaning.
