I’m a casual anime fan, my main references being Ghibli, Full Metal Alchemist, Cowboy Bepop etc, in general, I like good art and good scenario. So I want to follow discussions about this type of anime.

However, I am very uncomfortable at the countless anime that sexualize minors (and minor looking supposedly adults) or over sexualized women.

Is there a community for this interest? I am too much of a casual to animate such community myself.

Edit: thank you everyone for the recommendations, I will look them up.

    Like others, I don’t know about a comm but I’ll rec a few series. Biased towards isekai because it’s what I often watch.

    You’re likely to enjoy:

    • Sousou no Frieren (Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End)
    • Mairimashita! Iruma-kun (Welcome to Demon School Iruma-kun!)
    • Saihate no Paladin (The Paladin of the End)

    If bored, check those:

    • Rozen Maiden
    • Spy x Family note there is some fanservice for the assassin, but she’s adult, adult-looking, and it’s mostly legs
    • Log Horizon
    • Akuyaku Reijou Tensei Oji-san (From Bureaucrat to Villainess: Dad’s Been Reincarnated!)
    • Youjo Senki (The Saga of Tanya the Evil)
    • Otome Game no Hametsu Flag shika Nai Akuyaku Reijou ni Tensei shiteshimatta… (IDR the English name, people call it “Bakarina” or “Hamefura” anyway)
    • Isekai Mokushiroku Mynoghra (note: Atou dresses in a rather showy way, but that’s it.)

      In my post I recommended Promised Neverland, Ranking of Kings, and OddTaxi as maybe Zero fanservice.

      I’d say that Frieren, Sihate no Paladin (btw: its “Faraway Paladin” in English), Spy x Family as maybe 1/5 or 2/5 fanservice. Tame in the great scheme of things but … its worth discussing.

      • Frieren has some “Fern has large breasts” jokes. 1/5 Fanservice, low but there’s some jokes there that might make people uncomfortable especially given that Fern is young.

      • Spy x Family has the Sister x Brother thing going on. Discomfort is obviously the point. 2/5 Fanservice.

      • The Faraway Paladin had a few uncomfortable jokes I caught regarding Will walking in on Mary. Overall 1/5 but maybe like 3/5 on that one scene and its implications especially how Blood acts afterwards. Maybe I’m just overreacting to that one scene from earlier though but I think that’s exactly the issue that the original poster was talking about. (Like 99% of a show is solid and that weird 1% joke just throws you off with way too much of a sex joke, especially given how tame the rest of the show was). But yeah, aside from like, that one or two scenes (which I’d only rate 3/5 on fanservice in isolation, nothing close to like Kill la Kill), the rest of the show is either 0/5 or 1/5.

      • Otome Game no Hametsu Flag shika Nai Akuyaku Reijou ni Tensei shiteshimatta – English name is “My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom”

      This is another one. Its largely tame and fun. But there’s a lot of prepubescent blushing, marriage proposals, getting together and dating. There’s the “adopted brother x sister” thing going on though, so I’d have to push the rating to 2/5 at least.
