| Nah man i cant watch fairy tail even with that |
| If ur fan service is accompanied with good humour then it will work |
| "Reasons to hate fan service" The main reason someone doing that is hating the fans who are being serviced. |
| "Oh no I'm falling asleep .. ... boring plot... ... .. OH BOOBS!!! now I'm invested again" rinse and repeat. Its not pandering to "fans" just to those who'd lose interest otherwise. Also I love how gay is an option. |

| I find HEAVY fan service/cliché/ tropes bothersome or annoying is when it comes in the context of comedy which I find to be unnecessary most of the time, otherwise, minor fanservice doesn't ruin my experience |
| Hollywood: has literal half-naked superheroes and female characters with no purpose other than a romantic interest for a dude People: ♥ Anime: shows one (1) cleavage or panty shot People:  |
| Hmm what do I pick if my problem with fanservice is not enough guys getting sexialized?

| FanService can be distracting if it is incessantly excessive like High school of the Dead (2) |

| If I don't watch anime to get horny, what makes you think I'm going to enjoy random panty shot inserts? Is it supposed to be appealing or something? |
| It's the mostly the first 2. There is literally no reason to ever complain about fanservice unless you're gay or a brainwashed feminist. |
| Fan service in an ecchi way won't work that adequately for me but can be rational if associated with some drama and delicacy |

| 1. they didn't show tits 2. They are not funny therefore making it worthless content 3. Sometimes they're not fit well with the show |
 |
| Unless it is coming up minute after minute which makes it quite annoying, fanservice isn't something I hate |
 |
| The only time I didn't like fan service was in Fire Force which was just annoying and too forced in my opinion |

| It depends on the anime. Sometimes it can be so awkward and forced. |

| If "gay" is an option on the poll, then I certainly think my answer (asexual) is probably self-explanatory. I'm not morally opposed to fanservice, or something like that, but it just bores me to tears Anton Chekhov would be turning in his grave at the pantyshots and naked breasts which don't serve to better the plot in any way, lol. If a gun can't just be mentioned in a story if it doesn't amount to anything, then you had better believe I want the fanservice to serve some sort of narrative purpose (such as in BEASTARS, for example) In other words, fanservice to me is literally the same thing as going into excruciating detail about what a character had for lunch that afternoon, even though it's completely irrelevant and eats up runtime which could be better used for worldbuilding, character backstories, action sequences or whatever else |
My greatest contribution to this website:  |
| Fanservice shouldn't be in a show with a serious story/tone, as it tends to ruin the mood. Fanservice works better in comedies, and works where you know to expect fanservice just by looking at the cover art. |
 |
| There are no reasons to hate fanservice, if we ever get world peace, it will be because of fanservice. People that dont like fanservice are just tsundere. Being gay is not an excuse, everyone likes boobs, and stripped frilly pantsu. |
| I like fanservice except if it makes the show worse, there's that reason. |
 |
| Not everyone wants fanservice I don't mind myself but I only speak for myself |
 |
| I don't mind fanservice, the best place for fanservice is in series specifically made to be around fanservice (IE: Ecchi stuff) or if the anime itself is lackluster and has a generic story, some fanservice can help bridge the gap and make it watchable. Fairy Tail is a good example, it's pretty much an archetypal shonen. |
| My waifu is the most wonderful waifu. Mai Valentine. |
| Cheap resource to get audience's attention and to avoid plot building and character development. |
 |
| it's mostly because of either hypocrites or religious fanatics. you will find many people that object to ecchi and yuri, but the second it's yaoi or female aimed ecchi like Free. they are okay with it. which is hypocritical to the extreme. most the times when they want to get rid of ecchi, but you say "okay lets get of yaoi and female aim amed ecchi." they go "BuT iT's NoT tHe SaMe!" then you have religious prudes that think it's "morally wrong/sin" Mirai said: Hmm what do I pick if my problem with fanservice is not enough guys getting sexialized? t you don't pick anything you go watch free, K, Jojos, and all the mountains of yaoi mangas |

| "among monsters and humans, there are only two types. Those who undergo suffering and spread it to others. And those who undergo suffering and avoid giving it to others." -Alice “Beauty is no quality in things themselves: It exists merely in the mind which contemplates them; and each mind perceives a different beauty.” David Hume “Evil is created when someone gives up on someone else. It appears when everyone gives up on someone as a lost cause and removes their path to salvation. Once they are cut off from everyone else, they become evil.” -Othinus  |
| i like how "straight woman" isnt even an option. you are blind to the actual issue even while you are explicitly bearing it out in a public forum. women don't seem to be permitted to have their own views, just bodies to look at. or perhaps if a woman shares a view you don't want to hear you can demonize it by labeling it "feminist." |
| Fanservice isn't always sexual in nature. Sadly over the years fanservice in anime has just generally become misconstrued with ecchi themes. Even the most mainstream of titles have a bit of fanservice here and there that is strictly targeting their most hardcore viewers. Either from an unexpected cameo of a loved character from the past to throwing in a niche theme specifically to appeal to a certain demographic. In western media studios like "Disney" will make a title that is targeted towards children and throw in some female character just as eye candy just to appeal to male adults who take their children to see these movies. If one really hates "fanservice" in general, you would be hard pressed to find any number of modern anime titles completely devoid of it. Because even titles you think have no fanservice, if you actually took the time to look for it you possibly will find some fanservice you might have overlooked before. |

| I think fanservice is boring. I'm not attracted to cartoon boobs and panties. I want to see cool characters in cool costumes, possibly with cool powers, beat the shit out of each other. Fanservice is just a complete waste of time, most of the time. I'd be cool with getting a good story too, but i don't rely on anime of that, and fanservice would only detract from that too. |

| I mean a lot of the time fan service just kinda ruins the plot or just takes the focus of the entire show and makes it redundant to watch. All your options assume everyone LOVES a pair of anime tiddies which isn't even close to the truth. |
 |
| Meh, I suppose of these four being a hypocrite is the most common but most of the time its none of these i suppose. I think it has to do with your upbringinig or the culture in your country or something, idk. I personally love me some fanservice, and never felt like it made an anime worse or distracted me from the plot or other aspects of the show. IDK, some people are allergic to it it feels like. Like all them people complaining camera was on Kallen's ass for 3 seconds in code geass - even if you ain't liking the sight, why would you even notice it and think about it to the point it annoyed you lol |
 |
| It serves no discernable narrative purpose a lot of the time and is actively both wasting my time and insulting my intelligence by thinking I'd somehow be more entertained getting my PP hard, than actually engaging with the story content they've chosen. But what do you do? Inserting random tits and ass is easy, having a compelling narrative and characters is challenging. |
 |
| I can't watch Monogatari with parents around |
  |
| 1. I can't take a show seriously with fan service plus sometimes I would like to watch an anime with someone but then bitches be getting naked and moaning over nothing. 2. It's unnecessary. It's a cartoon, why would I need to see abs and tits everywhere? I ain't that horny. 3. Doesn't make sense. Somehow multiple characters end up naked after fighting...like what?? Every.Single.Fight. 4. Many times they add it in serious scenes but just like I said before, I won't be able to take it seriously. Fan service turns the anime into a comedy and most times a bad one. Obviously sometimes, if not extreme and unneeded, I won't mind it. So if it only happens a few times I really won't care. |
| "he has it big as a cactus but he won't let go of my head and I puke on his cock bitch" - Boy by Fishball |
| I think you meant to say "even fanservice heavy shows can be watchable if they aren't boring". I love me some fanservice, but no amount of bouncing anime boobage is going to keep me from dropping something that bores the shit out of me. If we were talking about games, I'd be more inclined to agree. I'm not playing games like Senran Kagura for the story or character development, I can tell you that much. And at least that actually lets me control the characters, so I'm getting more out of it than just constant gravity defying boobies being shoved in my face. |

| Reasons to hate threads flaming people who hate fanservice Why do you hate threads flaming people who hate fanservice? β‘ Repetitive β‘ Strawmanning push-poll β‘ Low-effort β‘ OP not even here for the conversation More serious answer to the topic: I like good-looking characters. Everyone likes good-looking characters. But I don't like sex appeal when it feels shoehorned in and doesn't fit with the rest of the story. Same goes with any decorative thing, honestly. |

 |
| I prefer the funny kind of fan service over the sexy kind but both are fine. Like anything it can be done poorly or done well. Some of the older fan service is cringe as fuck though. Like Ikkitousen gets so old so fast and a lot of the time it is accompanied by groping and shit and I don't really like that style of fan service. |
Yash-Anime347 said: Then it seems like it should be right up your alleyFanservice is for virgin losers. Imagine being such a loser that you have to simp for 2D characters. Yikes!! |
 |
| I don't understand the provided reasons. who would ever think that fan service is inherently gay? there is a bunch of straight fan service. in fact most fan service is straight since most of the audience also is so. therefore it's invalid reason. sarcasm aside, where is the option 'I don't'? I can't vote like this |
| Am I a good person? No. But do I try to be better every single day? Also no |
