The anime community usually calls any type of sexual content that features panty shots, b**b grabs, or naked women as 'Fanservice'. The actual definition of fanservice would be anything that is added to please the fans to watch the show. This can either be good or bad depending on the context. Most of us don't like camera angles that are unnecessary focused on female character's bodies in very action-oriented shows. What type of fanservice do you actually enjoy? If you don't see your opinion mentioned on the polls, please don't forget to comment on this thread

I like all of the above options.  My fav would be parody though.

Sure, fanservice didn't used to just mean tits and ass, but... now it's pretty much guaranteed to be the first thing people think of. 
If you reply back to me and I never respond, I lost interest and don't care. Sorry about that.

The fanservice I like the most is the one that focuses on boobs and asses, because I'm a degenerate pervert. :'3

High octane action requires the most effort and most entertainment when done right which I love

One of my favorites that isn't listed is "gattai". Combinations of machinery as they transform is good shit

Imo the fan service just has to serve a point that feels like it makes sense to happen but there's nuance in how blatant or overboard. I always think of darling in the FranXX acid episode. It's very random and weird that one battle all the girl characters outfits happen to get monster guts all over them in a battle when this have never happened. The episodes theme was supposed to do with puberty and young girls/girls feelings which is fine but the initial event is so ridiculous and immersion breaking ur like wtf.

- Provocative Poses and Camera Angles on specific parts of a person's body
- Character drawn in enticing and sexy poses with a lot of detail
- Shipping moments/teases between the characters that you ship
- Highly detailed and visually impressive backgrounds

Hen Zemi is a master piece it's as if they decided to make Rin x Sen + Ran -> Sem: Cross Mix into a regular anime but kept the weird cultic seminary things they do in there just without the explicit sex.

I'm a big fan of the erotica genre in manhwas. So that. But hentai anime is like really bad.
Also does it really count as fanservice, when the smut is integral part of the plot?

Sexual poses/angles I only like if the character is at least 18 and aware they are sexy. And not wearing something dumb.

I would say shipping moments between characters, luckily for my top six favorite characters it seems the authors agreed with me as well.

Dang, it looks like the opinions people have on their favorite type of fanservice is super diverse. That's cool to see.

All the options are nice but I'm a simple degenerate so I prefer boobs, butts and thighs.

Character interations, team-ups and references/nods/easter eggs are all the fanservice I'll ever need.
Who are you and why do you show your hostility towards a complete stranger whom you've not once spoken with before. Are you seriously asking to get blocked? Well, if that's what your intent is; to tempt me into throwing hands with someone as lowly and insignificant as you, then i may grant your wish provided you articulate yourself a bit better when trying to spite a person of my wavelength.

I'm an action junky, I won't lie. I love seeing tones of kinetic energy on screen. Missals streaming and plans rolling in mid air. Swords slamming into spears and massive explosions that take out entire castles. 
Sometimes it takes a real man to be best girl. Gilgamesh is also chad.

I like all of "non-sexual fanservice", aka desired character interactions, shipping teases, easter eggs, visually great action scenes and well-drawn backgrounds.

Rarely I do like sexual fanservice too, but most of it looks really cheap and lot of anime characters are not really attractive to me.

I voted for Highly detailed and visually impressive backgrounds, but I just like pretty-looking scenes in general even if they're not highly detailed. Something like the sparkly scenes usually in shoujo/romance anime or a lot of scenes in Demon Slayers that just makes me want to screenshot them.

All of the above but where appropriate. There can be good fanservice and fanservice that just feels out of place and is distracting where it shouldnt be.

One thing i dont see enough of is detailed close ups of characters whether sexual or non sexual.

I want to see characters other than the protagonist have an opportunity to save the day now and then.

A lot of older anime are especially guilty of having every episode end with the main character beating the villain of the week, but I'd much rather see other people get to use their combat abilities and win once or twice.

Any that benefits the story. Aka the one benefit not part of the poll. XD Otherwise I guess backgrounds would be mine. I like good backgrounds.

It can be a character modelling, it can for eroge game development. It can be a magic spell of sorts.

It can a succubus and the many different ways to portray them in stories (which been reading a few, some that have no fan service just the character designs, they can be wholesome, others the characters controlling themselves, other times it's the life of a succubus and living with them).

That or some like a couple trying for a child (I mean so many Hentai yeah it would be a bit boring but some of their 180s can be annoying and there is only so much NTR you can take and other sitautions are being covered fairly well of not interested but dark, others more balanced).

Such as exploring themselves (puberty or just in general). I guess the science behind it....

What dynamics it can be used for just like character dynamic what ifs.

Whatever angles.

I don't like it when it's an excuse that much anymore. I can take it but still it can be annoying.

Not because oh getting older eh.

Just the tropes do get overused and usually used for excuses then relevant use cases I'd rather see and you do want to see other angles/uses of it.

I have seen some dynamics be really interesting to see a spin on fan service elements and been happy with them. Like magic spells or succubus or modelling or eroge game development.
