Shoujo Kakumei Utena - All of the male characters get sexualise in one way or the other to point of parody by the Akio arc, tell me how many times you saw Akio or Touga with their shirts open during the arc; here are the best example I could think of:

I don't think that compares to the other examples in this thread.

Is there a clear definition of what counts as fan-service anyway? It seems a very vague concept to me; and while there are many obvious examples, there are also many cases which are quite uncertain quite apart from the matter of differing cultural sensibilities (I mean within the West, not just between the West and Japan).

Well, I'm watching Railgun S-1 right now and I'd say EP 13 probably takes the cake for Anime I've actually seen.
I mean, predictability is the central attraction and the narrative hook that we've all come to expect from the Evangelion franchise. How come Anno can't realize this? Twice? - FreakyFilmFan4ever

I guess I shouldn't start grimacing over proposed examples of extremely ambiguous term like fanservice but if you think those are examples of fanservice per se then Utena is banana.

In my collection, the most blatant is Golden Boy. Curiously, and to my embarrassment, that was my first introduction to anime, so it's hardly surprising that it was a long time before I was persuaded to take the medium seriously.

One that comes to mind is Green Green. I actually felt a bit sick after watching it.

I'd have to go with ADV's release of Plastic Little, which broke bold new ground by first introducing the on screen 'jiggle counter' special feature.

I think we've reached this thread's top.

And on-topic: I guess i would have to go with "To Love Ru" although i'm not sure if Echhi series count.

They re-used that for Burn-Up/Excess (and possibly /W as well); but I still wouldn't list those titles under this thread, because they were really quite tame.

I've recently watched season one of Highschool DxD, and I'm surprised no one's mentioned it yet. It's a show built solely around tits.
The BDs aren't even censored, so you can hardly go a minute without huge naked breasts bouncing everywhere.
And the cut-away screens look like this:

From what I've heard, though, To-Love-Ru, whilst hugely ecchi, is also hilarious.

Do OVA specials count? Because the first 2 Girls und Panzer specials existed for nothing but fanservice.

I forget what the Japanese title was but We Without Wings: Under the Innocent Sky had copious amounts of fanservice in each episode. The uncut blu-ray rips upped the ante even more. And I freakin LOVED it! Nothing wrong with some fanservice IMO.

I love this series because it saved my life few months ago. -o-;

Great show.

But i agree that it has really blatant HC fanservice.
