I hate fan service. Cartoons aren't sexy, apparently men can't watch anything anymore without their being a token pair of tits in there (I'm suprised more aren't offended) and it makes me feel inadequate.
You should watch The Haunted World of El Superbeasto...
Care to describe what it is before I adventure off into the deep, dark internets and upset myself? xD

To give you an idea, its a cartoon movie produced by Rob Zombie... with fanservice.

I recently made a thread talking about the new anime Highschool of the dead and to my surprise I had several people say the the huge boobs and random pantie shots known as Fansevice turned them off from the anime. I thought huge bouncing boobies and up skirt panty shots was all guys could ever ask for? Is it because when they finally get what they want they realise they dont truly want it anymore? or are men loosen their balls? What do you think?
Yes, fanservice does annoy me because its taking up time for zombie killing.

I don't want to be beat up by SNM Anime freak in leather carrying whips and cattle prod. It would be different with FAN SERVICE. (Got it, mate?)

I think fan service is dumb. They often base whole show on it... and they all suck. If you are trying to hide the weak story with T&A, either try to rewrite it or just abandon the project.

It depends. If the series is meant to be serious, then the boobs and butts have to be kept to a minimum. Series like One Piece work with the fanservice since it's largely humorous and only gets serious during the fights. But then you have series like Ikki Tousen or whatever the hell it's called where there's a neat concept (the warriors from the Three Kingdom era channeling their souls through modern day kids or whatever) but it's marred by freaking rediculous amounts of panties, big boobs, and ass grabbing. Look at Fullmetal Alchemist, while most if not all of the female characters were sexy and cute, none of them were just there to be bouncing tits and nothing else (barring that one quick boob joke in episode 19). For me, large amounts of fanservice is alright if the series is meant to be silly or if it adds to the overall nature, like in a romance series where the main guy may have bad luck with women, but great luck seeing them naked :p. One such series was Gacha Gacha which was pretty bare on the story (with some decent developement, but failing in it's overall finale), but had a decidedly good balance of the fanservice (the girls were well endowed, but not titty monsters as Yahtzee would say).

Depends on the anime/show/game in question. Things like Queen's Blade and Dead Or Alive are pretty much built around fanservice. This alone however doesn't make something worth watching/playing. If the anime industry was a foodstuff, fanservice would be the seasoning and eating just seasoning is likely to result in stomachache.

I've never really seen the point in fanservice, if I wanted to be titillated by underdressed women I'd be watching softcore porn, but I don't and I'm not so stop shoving boobs in my face.

How on earth can you be contemptuous of the standards of "men" (who happens to be individuals as well...), yet at the same time feel inadequate in regard to those very same standards??? I'd think disavowing a norm and submitting to it to be somehow incompatible...

I'd agree that publishers seem to think that "men" have an attention span which won't last more than 5 minutes without them seeing some T&A, but that's the whole problem with it!

I think its time for a little fanservice.

OT: I have no problem with a little bit of fan service but when it gets to a certain level (like the rosario vampire anime which is a damn shame because the manga has a great story) then it gets annoying

I clicked on the link to this thread thinking we were going to be discussing whether or not developers go too far with making the game tailored to the fans desires.
And now I've just become witness to a terrifying video of an alternate universe where womens breasts have developed angry and violent sentient minds of their own and are attempting to pull free from their former masters to take over the world.

Thanks, I'm going to have nightmares for a VERY long time now...

OT: Yes, to a degree I do find showing up the sexual side of a female character quite annoying, especially when it is entirely possible to imply that a female character has a sexual side without having to have the camera pan up their behinds and have their breasts jiggle like jelly that's been possessed by demons. I mean just have an attractive female character occasionally make flirtatious remarks, we don't need to have them be so ridiculously sexed up that people start to forget that women in the real world don't actually look like that.

So yeah, maybe occasionally it's okay but for the most part it does annoy me somewhat and as that... video aptly demonstrates, there's a little bit too much of it around.
When I was listening to the first song, all I could hear was "I like a, I like a girly guy..."

Usually I don't mind it since, hey, boobies :) But if it gets in the way of the plot or the atmosphere then I don't like it. Like in Code Geass some of thous shots of Kallen were just distracting.

I was challenging the view point. That's not my opinion, hense the 'apparently' but let's face it, you cannot avoid the fact that 'men' and 'idividuals' are two completely different things, at least where media is concerned, an example is fact that semi naked women are everywhere: in movies, in adverts, in cartoons with a sole purpose to sell stuff to 'men'. Whether it moves the individual is an individual matter, and this is my opinion: fan service is unnecessary in all good animes and is somewhat offensive to most men who are entertained by intelligent, well written anime and do not need a pair of tits attatched.

The feeling inadequate is rooted from being a whiny, little *****. Disregard please.

It's annoying when it gets in the way.

If what I'm watching stops for five minutes to show a scene where two girls get in a bath and start having sexually tense conversation and - for no reason I can gather - end up pinning the other to the ground while I'm waiting for giant undead laser-samurai to kick each other's ass, then yes it's annoying.

If it's just there at the same time and is just sort of happening, it's at worst patronising but ignorable and at best absolutely hilarious.
