'Food Wars! Shokugeki no Soma' can also be considered. While it has fanservice in the form of the characters' extreme reactions to tasting good food (which can be a bit over - the - top and somewhat fanservice - like), it has a solid story about a young chef, Soma, trying to prove himself in a highly competitive culinary school. The various cooking battles and the relationships between the characters add depth to the anime.
One such anime is 'High School DxD'. It has a story that revolves around the main character Issei, who is a perverted high school student. However, beneath the fanservice elements, there is a plot about the supernatural world of devils, angels, and fallen angels. The battles and the development of Issei's character as he becomes stronger in this otherworldly setting make it an interesting watch.
'Date A Live' is also a great example. It features fan - service with the female spirit characters. However, the story is engaging. The main character, Shido Itsuka, has to date the spirits in order to seal their powers and save the world. There are mysteries about the origin of the spirits, and the relationships that develop between Shido and the spirits are both heart - warming and full of drama.
Another great one is 'Kill la Kill'. The story is about a girl named Ryuko Matoi seeking revenge against her father's killer while uncovering the secrets of her school. The anime has a very distinct art style and there are elements of fanservice in the form of the rather unique and sometimes revealing outfits of the characters. It's a wild and exciting ride with a solid story.
Well, the fanservice can add a certain charm. For example, in 'To Love - Ru', the fanservice is part of the light - hearted and comical nature of the show. It can attract a wider audience as some people enjoy that aspect. But the story aspect is important too. In this anime, the story of Rito's misadventures with the alien girls he meets is what keeps the plot going and makes it more than just a fanservice - filled show.
Well, first of all, the story has to be engaging on its own. For example, in 'Date A Live', the story of saving the world by dating spirits is really interesting. The fanservice comes in the form of the cute and often scantily - clad female spirits. It's like they use the fanservice as an extra attraction while the story keeps you hooked.
Well, in terms of story, a good fanservice anime often has an engaging plot. For example, in 'High School DxD', the plot of the main character's journey in the devil world and his growth in power makes it interesting. The fan - service aspect can add a certain charm, like the character designs which can be appealing. In 'Kill la Kill', the fan - service is part of the unique style of the anime, and the story's themes of revenge and overthrowing the oppressive system are great.
'Your Lie in April' is also a remarkable anime. It's about a piano prodigy, Kousei Arima, who lost his ability to hear the sound of his own piano playing after his mother's death. Then he meets Kaori Miyazono, a free - spirited violinist. Their relationship and his journey to rediscover his love for music form a beautiful and heart - wrenching story.
Well, 'Sao - Sword Art Online' has some elements of love story in it. Kirito and Asuna's relationship is quite famous among anime fans. They support each other through various challenges in the virtual world. Also, 'Fruits Basket' is a love - centric anime. Tohru Honda's interactions with the Sohma family members lead to some really touching love stories, both romantic and platonic. There's also 'Kimi ni Todoke' where the shy girl Sawako tries to find love and friendship.
Since I'm not sure exactly what 'bubble anime story' is, it's hard to recommend similar ones. But if it has something to do with a fantasy - like world, then 'Spirited Away' could be considered in a way. It has a very imaginative world full of strange creatures and situations.
There is also 'Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood'. The two brothers in this anime, Edward and Alphonse, embark on a journey of self - improvement, facing numerous challenges and learning important life lessons, which can be seen as a great example of an 'anime meisei story'.
'Sailor Moon' can also be seen as an Anime Joi Story - like anime. Sailor Moon and her friends are on a continuous journey to protect the Earth from various threats. Along the way, they learn about themselves, their powers, and the importance of friendship. The series has a strong sense of progression and growth for the characters, which is characteristic of a 'joi' story.
