I watch the new episodes together with a big group of friends (guys and girls both) every wednesday, it’s a great time. Then we rewatch parts over and over again and gush over some fluff moments or laugh at things like inbetweens. Oh yeah and my twitter is a minefield of screenshots and other people drawing fanart and…

The problem is it’s not just that. Like most social movements, there are subgroups within it that tend to have different goals. Unfortunately until somewhat recently, the loudest and most visible subset of the feminism movement was generally the lockdown no-compromises camp that you’d characterize as “get rid of all…

I don’t think it’s wrong for it to cross over, especially in stories in which it benefits the mood or the story (though it doesn’t have to... and I’m not one to say what makes a story better or not). And yes, I agree that in a perfect world, and the world we should be fighting for, is one in which an artist draws or…

That’s exactly my point. After being annoyed at the female objectification everywhere, I thought that it won’t change in the near future. But, I don’t see why not they do the same thing with males, so we women can enjoy the same thing and we can stop feeling relegated as objects. If everyone is being objectified, it…

I get what you are saying but what is wrong when it crosses over? That is to start off saying that people can like or dislike whatever they want, but for so many posts and comments it seems like if that person doesn’t like something then it needs to not exist or everyone else needs to not like it or people who do like…

The use of age in anime would make for a good analysis. Japan having a seniority-stressing culture seems to generate a lot of fascination with the young-looking adult/old person, so that Case Closed can use it as an entire premise and a woman at an age at which sex would be normal but stuck in a pubescent body is a…

I have nothing against media whose aim is to be titillating and arousing. Nor is there really anything wrong with fanservice itself. The problem is A) how widespread and unavoidable it is, to the point of sometimes ruining serious moments, and B) how heavily one-sided it is towards objectifying females specifically,…

Chriiiiiiist this. If the Japanese don’t see it as a problem maybe we should shut our American mouth.

This is pretty close to my criteria: Does the fan service accomplish anything? If so, it’s fine, but if not, it actually decreases my enjoyment of the show.

I find it mostly childish and out of place, and specially hate it when it’s used to destroy a character’s image just for the sake of selling toys. Oh, so Saber is a stoic proud woman, a warrior driven by duty and honor to protect her kingdom? Here she is doing sexy poses while wearing a skimpy bikini.

It doesn’t bother me in the slightest. I don’t seek it out, neither do I avoid it. I look at it for what it is; part of another cultures media that I enjoy.

As long as it’s done non intrusively like mid fight nakedness everything is ok...also Shokugeki No Soma is an exception because they do it in a funny way and on purpose.

I watch porn all the time, but (generalizing) I'm more selective than men are. I can't watch a girl with a bad weave, bad makeup, excessive noise (too fake), baby voice and weird kiddie laughing. Also can't do all the fat dudes. Men in porn are often unattractive because they're not making it for us. I think it's…
