Another characteristic is that they can use fan service to enhance the mood or the character's personalities. In 'One Piece', Nami's outfits are sometimes a bit revealing, which can be seen as a form of fan service. But within the context of the story, it also shows her confident and sometimes cheeky personality. The overall story of the Straw Hat Pirates' adventures, their quests for treasure, and their battles against powerful enemies is so vast and engaging that the fan service becomes just one aspect among many that make the anime great.
'Food Wars! Shokugeki no Soma' also fits. The story is about a young chef named Soma trying to prove himself in a highly competitive culinary school. There is fan service in the form of the characters' over - the - top reactions to delicious food, which are sometimes depicted in a rather 'ecstatic' way. But the main focus remains on the amazing cooking battles and Soma's journey to become the best chef.
One of the best is 'High School DxD'. It has a great blend of fan - service and an interesting story about a high school student who gets involved with demons. There are a lot of scenes with attractive characters in alluring outfits and some comical yet engaging plotlines that keep viewers hooked.
Well, 'To Love - Ru' is quite famous for it. The story revolves around a high school boy who has to deal with a whole bunch of alien girls. There are lots of fan - service moments due to the nature of the alien girls' bodies and their interactions with the protagonist. It's a harem - type anime with a lot of comical and somewhat racy situations.
Not always. Barnes and Noble's manga stock changes frequently, and the presence of fan service manga isn't guaranteed. You might find some popular titles, but it's hit or miss.
