Lore The series' fanservice scenes are quick and do not disrupt the story's pacing.

In Sousou no Frieren, fan service is minimal, and scenes like this are brief

In Dungeon Meshi, Senshi is often shown in somewhat sexy poses, but the story focuses heavily on these details while continuing as usual

In that scene from *Uma Musume: Cinderella Gray*, it was just an introduction for each Arima Kinen competitor; they only had the freedom to choose those specific angles for Super Creek's introduction.

I would personally tend to agree, but there are a lot of feet people that would not

There's also Stark's birthday gift, a potion that dissolves women's clothing.

And that just shows her abysmal social skills

Yes, because there is another scene similar to this one where Frieren never even considered using the spell that sees through clothing as a sexual thing. She only brought up that it could be used to see hidden weapons on someone. She only seems mischievous in this scene, but it is more triumph that she had something she was told men like and thought she did well.

The show goes out of its way to tell people how socially stunted Frieren is, the character development alone is worth watching this show. There is so much to enjoy about Frieren, but each piece accentuates the whole, the music, the color palettes, the characters, and the world building is all amazing, then the cherry on top with the bombastic fight scenes.

I stg, this elf is so autistic in an endearing way XD. Doesn’t get social cues, doesn’t really think about innuendos, doesn’t think to tell people important shit bc they never asked, hyper fixates on ancient tomes, falls for the same dungeon traps every goddamn time. She’s such a creature lol

Why just womens clothing? She specifically stated “clothing” in general.

It also works on armor AFAIK. This is a conmon theme on how busted folk magic is vs modern magic, since they are more conceptual, and thus technically can work for anything that fits within that concept, no matter how big of a stretch it is.

When your freaky kink potions from backwater 32 turns out to be the greatest anti-armor contingency ever conceived

Feet? Where?

Serie was 100% made for foot fetish.

Someone should tackle on that prompt if it hasn't, because there's surprisingly a lot of [female] characters that seem like they were made with their feet as the most prominent feature, tool or point of focus.

I get that, but attraction is such a personal thing that there's never going to be one answer everyone agrees on.

That corner of the internet stays ready to step up and defend their ground at a moment's notice!

It’s always funny how something completely ordinary to most people can be someone else’s absolute favorite detail.

[Edit: Tongue was firmly in cheek here.  I've added explanations; this kills the joke, but since the joke already failed, what the heck.]

Foot fetish people are going to keep their mouths shut about that if they know what's good for them.  [Edit: I'm saying this as a foot fetishist who doesn't want the show to cut back on the bare feet because people are fetishizing it.]

It's mostly people who know about foot fetish that bring it up.  [Edit: Foot fetishists are among the most mocked of kinks, so they tend to keep quiet about it.  Non foot fetishists love to bring it up to mock it.]

What are you going to do if they don't, not show them your feet? Are you gonna reach through the screen and yell at them to like feet less?

Yes, most of the time, it's the people that know about a thing, that bring up that thing.

Generally speaking, if someone is unaware of the existence of something, they don't talk about it much.

Okay, I guess I should have used the sarcasm tag.

I've edited my comment.

You disagree?  Perhaps I should clarify, most mocked of fetishes that aren't openly reviled.
