I'm fine with extreme amounts of fanservice as long as it doesn't negatively affect a good plot (*coughZeroNoTsukaimacough*).

It's okay if its used in moderation nowadays it just seems excessive. Oversized busts, juggling melons, flashes etc.

I like fan service as long as it's not too gratuitous (ie every five minutes) otherwise it just distracts me.

I don't watch anime to fap so if theres enough fanservice for that then it just confuses me as to what I should be doing.

Rosario + Vampire, anyone?


Rosario + Vampire is an excellent example of fanservice used too often or at least the anime is. For some reason the manga is ok. Perhaps it's because it has an actual plot.

I dont mind a light funservice in anime, because it usualy makes me laugh. But there are some limits! I mean, if anime contains ONLY funservice and what's more in a bad taste, or doesnt have any plot, then I hate it. Depriving a girl of her blouse (or/and other clothes) in every possible scene is just too much for me. *sigh*

Pretty much as long as the shows redeeming feature isn't the fan service then its all good..as long as it still has a solid plot and is getting along well...fan service all you want.

It's fine if it isn't forced. Like a hot chick in a bikini is kew. Buut like if they put a rainbow background, twinkles and shit than it gets annoying.

Some eye candy is always good, but I deffinately prefer it to be subtile. A bit here, a bit there. Ya know, not over done......

Not every 5 seconds and I'm fine with it; this applies to any type of show, even the ecchi-on-purpose ones.

Depends on how it's done. For example the nudity in Top wo Nerae wasn't in your face. But excessive panty shots can be annoying in some shows unless its ecchi. Even then, it shouldn't be overdone.

Unless I'm watching hentai I expect all the anime characters to have their clothes on at all times.

Don't recommend me something that is still publishing, unless its close to being finished. Don't recommend me anything that isn't licensed.

I have to disagree. More mature romance anime like Nana and Kimi ga Nozumo Eien have nudity, because the shows weren't afraid to show intimacy. Would that offend you?

I don't usually watch romance or Joesie(did I spell that right?) so when I see it its really stupid and unnecessary. In romance titles I guess its more acceptable

Ok, I understand where your coming from. I haven't seen One Piece, but I bet if it had fan service it would be out of place and "probably" annoy me because it doesn't fit the show.

anime studios attract viewers through fan service that most people thinks it is unnecessary or it degrades the quality of the anime

  • i hate pantsu (sometimes its ok but most of it is so over!)
  • i hate drowning males or sometimes females on large breasts (not even liked it once)
  • i hate groping of breasts (i don't understand this at all ~ why always things like these occur numerous of times)

it depends on the series, Air Gear was a bit over the top for me, but I like the fanservice in Code Geass R2 so yeah..

as long as it doesn't distract from the story it's okay I guess

Cheesecake fanservice of any kind and amount will instantly detract from my opinion of just about any anime, with very few exceptions.

So I'd say hate it.

Although sometimes reference fanservice can make me grin, so long as it's not the focus of the series, such as the Satchii soda cans in Tokyo Magnitude.

Doesn't really bother me for the most part.

Sometimes it can be funny, but if the show is decent enough the fanservice doesn't matter to me. Not that it bothers me in the first place, though.

Depends on the kind of fanservice. If it's showing panties or clevage EVERY. FUCKING. SCENE. I don't like it, but if it's something like, "Oh, wow, that's unexpected~" it's cool with me.

To me, fanservice is what i would consider a double-edge sword. I find it fine and tolerable ( it highly depends on the show and how much there is ), but I think too much of it can ruin an anime as well as it's own plot. Plus, if any of it is inserted in scenes where it's not needed ( romantic and/or dramatic ), it's just ruins the mood and fucks up in the end.

Hentai is one thing (which I enjoy) fanservice is two people same sex trying to do a hentai scence.

If it's totally stupid and the show has to rely on it to be popular. Or if it's totally blatant and feels as if the makers are thinking 'Ha the people watching will like this cos they're idiots'. Sometimes it's just like 'Ah okay...didn't need that'.

Not a big fan of it. I can tolerate the fan service for girls better since I'm a girl, but most of the time it has me rolling my eyes. I can't stand fanservice for guys.

It doesn't have to be gender specified. Fan service is not limited to something ecchi.
