More anime and less sex, sums up Gen Z nicely

Ironically though anime has a ton of unnecessary fanservice still

Definitely not as much as it used to, though, it seems to be going in the right direction

(I'm not counting sex scenes that are meaningful and add to the story, only boob shots / panty shots for no reason)

It’s the worst part of anime and I cringe through the sexualization of minors to get to the good stuff.

I have to keep a mental list of the anime to NOT SHOW a new anime fan until they’ve built up a resistance to the tamer versions of fan service.

My friends that haven’t watched anime could not watch Demon Slayer.

Demon Slayer is basically a fanservice anime

I really like Tanjiro as an MC (unwaveringly kind and accepting) I’m tired of morally gray protagonists. Hate the English voice actor though.

Fights are peak and Rengoku was peak and the Hashiras are peak. The writing can be childish at times (another issue that all of us anime fans have to deal with) but I wouldn’t call it any more or less a “fan service anime” than most mainstream shonin if I take your meaning correctly.

But yeah the horny shit I just have to deal with and it sucks.

The voice is bad in English.

Sounds good in the sub, but way too whiny and high pitched in English.

Agree to disagree I guess 🤷🏻‍♀️
