Well, everything I say is just my opinion.ziin wrote:
Fanservice animes are like vague genre movies. You don't watch them if you aren't going to like them. Personally, I laughed my ass off in HSotD, mostly due to the outrageous fanservice. I can't find it, but someone used the bullet's speed to discover the speed of Saeko's boobs in the matrix boob scene (I think it's well over the speed of sound). It's likely disgusting to many people, but don't watch it if you don't like it.Daru wrote:
Fanservice has the ability to ruin a show.
A show completely about fanservice flatlines from the beginning.
It was a stupid show, with a stupid premise, but at least it did everything right: ridiculously over the top.
I will agree though, some fanservice just leaves a bad taste in my mouth. A show completely about fanservice, however, is usually hilarious to me, and worth watching, just for the silliness.
I think fanservice ruins stuff. It exists and persists, so there must be some fanbase for it, but what bothers me is when shows that could be totally badass or awesome without it is ruined with it. I obviously don't watch stuff like KissxSis, but shows like HotD would be awesome for me, sans fanservice.
