| I guess I have to agree with this one. :)........ |

| Yes, masturbation does reduce stress, but ecchi is the inferior medium for doing it. |
 |
| It's just a form of narcotization. The body sends out signals for a reason and narcotizing yourself to make yourself numb to these signals does not get rid of the root cause. |
Combat Ecchi and Fanservice are single-handedly the greatest things to come out of anime (aside from eromanga and hentai). |

Yes, because it's very action-filled and exciting unlike the plethora of boring ecchi where character only talk with the occasional embarrassing situation, whereas in combat ecchi you got girls kicking ass while showing theirs. |
| This is why ecchi is greatest thing to ever be created. |
 |
| Apparently it also reduces the duration of more important scenes and the quality of the storytelling. If I want to reduce stress and depression I have many better ways to do than seeing some cheap porn scenes in cartoons. |

| I'm a staunch believer that feeding the troll is a positive thing to do when you enjoy the piss they're taking. However I also wouldn't want to be taken as that kind of idiot, thus this preface. So basically you're saying that H is good because some people aren't very suicidal? TheFireNinja said: Idk I'm positive it's not always a matter of being prude. I, for one, happen to dislike H as it's a waste of screen time.It's not worth it trying to convince these people. I think it's kind of mental how some people want to get so high strung about sexual content in anime when it's just fiction. Not to mention I don't see how egregious it can be when you have adult entertainment outside of anime that has explicit sexual content. Whereas anime tends to dance around it. |
| Keep in mind that ecchi as a genre (I mean the way the term is used in the West) means "playful erotic content", not just any kind of erotic content. The "playful" aspect is important, what OP says makes sense. You don't need to be depressed to enjoy good vibes, though. |
| I agree with the stranger, the fanservice has saved me from depression. |

Nirinbo said: The point is that it only treats the symptoms (depression) but doesn't actually get rid of the root cause. And treating the symptoms without addressing the root cause can be very dangerous. A physical equivalent would be cutting your arm off and using pain killers to not feel the pain. You may not feel any pain but you will still bleed to death. And that's what's happening to depressed people, they use escapism media as pain killers but don't treat the root cause.MizunoWaveRider said: Anything is unhealthy in excessive quantity, that's undeniable.

| ogling anime boobs is the best thing ever |

| They just get cockblocked all the time. How boring it is. |
Help! I need somebody. Help! Not just anybody. Help! You know I need someone. Helpppppp!  |
| I completely agree with this. This is why ecchi is the best anime genre. |

| I suppose if you are a degenerate and can't get your degenerate fix you'll get stressed. But for the average human being I don't see it. |
 |
| Anime already has a genre for stress reduction. Genuine, unironically cultured individuals know what I am talking about. It's called Iyashikei and it's probably the best thing ever to come from the anime medium. Don't flatter yourself thinking ecchi is meant for anything other than some puerile humor. |

| Ecchi and Fanservice has a great benefit. Reducing stress and depression for normal people.. it does jackshit for me.. |

GreyStoneFlinger said: Honest i can see how ecchi and fanservice could stress some women disliking how they feel it represents them but i really cant see how it could cause depression just in itself. I may be wrong but i think you need to have more problems in your life than having enough of seeing erotic scenes in animes objectifying women to get into clinical depression territory, it feel like uneasy minimization of the actual issue said like that tought i get what your trying to get accross and kinda agrre in that I can see how seeing that would get some women in already bad mood even more disheartened, or how it could worsens a bit the depression symptoms of a woman who is already depressed and hate this kind of content feeling overwhelmed with it in anime talking spaces but pretending ecchi and fanservice alone could creates depression in women who didnt have it before feels quite a stretch to me, i really doubt any work of fiction or fictionnal genre can do that all alone.Actually, ecchi and fanservice are causes of depression and stress. Why are we, and many others, angered by fanservice? It’s because objectifying and singling out specific people is prejudice, and these actions leaking into our media is a bad influence. I also doubt just as much they could actually cure depression in most depressed guys watching them alone at the very best its a distraction to cope as some said before. I tend to agree with MizunoWaveRoder that if its a joke the topic is one of rather bad taste for minimizing mental health issues seriousness but well leave it at that but if OP or anyone in the topic is actually serious about feeling depressed and suicidal it's better helped with better kinds of help than just forgetting with erotica that i truly hope you can have access to (even if not medical as not every body can really access their need because the mental health system sucks hard i know but at the very least reach your dearest ones if your not alone, i know some truly are and then not much else can be done that being said so i wont judge people who cope with that however they can so i would feel pretty uncofonrtable doing a moral lesson to a actual suicidal guy coping even when its by faping on that, i just hope as many people with such issues can have the best possible help for them but sadly this is no such world so men, women, no matter what you have done and whats your temperament, whoever you are if you feel that way i truly hope you can at very least...cope best you can, its a truly bad place to be i wouldnt wish serious suicidal feelings on my worst ennemy). |
