After the latest episode, I'm sure we can agree that COTE should have the Ecchi tag, maybe even the Haram one. The entire series has had fanservice (albeit a small amount) but I think after this episode, it's evident.

Harem maybe but I don't think the ecchi tag is justified atm. Sure it has a some fanservice but it's a small amount as you said.

The only reason that the fanservice has spiked up a bit is that Sakura just likes to model. Assault/Rape attempt isn't exactly what you'd use to identify if it's ecchi enough if that's what you were thinking. We'd have ecchi tags on some 3deep5me anime if that were the case.

Have you seen episode 7? The Ecchi was crazy! Lol

I meant that the small amount of Ecchi up until now didn't justify the tag, but now I think the tag is justified.

Oh shit dude. Sorry just woke up and I wasn't aware that ep 7 had gone up last night. My bad. Well, I haven't watched ep 7 yet so I can't say with any support but if the ecchi is consistent again with the next ep then maybe.

I disagree, and I can explain it in a different way.

Just because a show has a love interest does not automatically make it a romance anime; the love interest would merely serve as a subplot. This applies to the same thing here in terms of ecchi and harem tags. The show simply isn't marketed that way. If you were to implement the tag, it doesn't really portray what the show is about. And if you were to implement the tag, then you would have to do it to every anime that has 1% ecchi, or 5% romance, etc. Hopefully this helped.

Edit: Just to give examples, Yuri on Ice!! has a Shounen-Ai subplot, but it's not marketed that way. It's a Sports anime first and a Shounen-Ai anime second. The same could be said for New Game! as it has Shoujo-Ai undertones, even though it's not marketed that way.

But it still has it. The tags particularly convey what the series is about. That's what the synopsis is for.

Yahari has a romance tag, there's barely any romance

A pool episode is hardly "ecchi" anyway. That's just fan service. They're not synonymous given the context. The point of Classroom of the Elite is not to be ecchi. The premise of the show is its unique take on the "School" genre setting. To elaborate slightly, do you know how many shows have fan service that don't have that tag? A lot.

Okay, so what do you propose? How do you inform someone, while they are looking at Classroom of the Elite on MAL, to expect panty shots, bouncing titties, and anything else that overly sexualizes girls?

Add a new tag? Call it "Fanservice"?

Because when it comes right down to it, you're not informing the user of what to expect in a series.

Lol. That would be pretty funny. Who would choose what's edgy though?

Ecchi tag because of one episode?

Why are some anime rated R+ Mild Nudity and don't have the ecchi tag?

You do realize that there's a difference in Ecchi and nudity right?

Fan service is normal at this point. You literally don't propose anything.

After watching this episode and remembering this topic, I'm baffled at how you would even think up this topic. Is this the first time you've ever seen a pool/beach/swimming episode?

This. Breather episodes are pretty common in anime (as well as fanservice in them), doesn't make them ecchi.

As for the harem, it's not harem if the romantic interest isn't implied. So far only 1 love interest is implied.
