AZ Rant: Fanservice and Ecchi (Censored) - YouTube
Yeah, I'm sure we've all noticed this. So let's discuss.
I think there's too much and even if there are a lot of shows that are plot oriented, the ecchi stuff garners more attention because... well, you know. That and if there's a potentially good plot, they should focus on that and NOT on trying to break the immersion with stuff to get me all hot and bothered. It comes off as a bunch of short-sighted, simpleminded TV executives aren't confident in good stories and characters being a selling point and feeling that putting in cheesecake gratuitously is the formula for a guaranteed success.
Another issue fanservice can pose is to outsiders of the Anime fandom(s) who can stereotype Anime as just porn. Because lord knows that humans are lazy at being open minded. You know that moments where you're watching an Anime and something risqué is shown, making you looking around for any family members/roommates. God forbid, you pause at the wrong moment...
