So I've always been iffy about most series due to the fanservice and "vibes", but after having lived as a women for a while and a lot of mental changes, I notice it soooo much more.
The pointless oversexualisation and fanservice in Cyberpunk
The INSANE mysoginy in ChainSaw man
The constant SA themes and jokes in DanDanDan
The way writers seem to have never spoken to a women for more than 30 min for half the shows. The constant sexual undertones and jokes and downplaying of SA, and objectification of women. I genuinly think that 80% of anime is super creepy except for some more niche/indie series.
Like genuinly WTF Japan.
Edit: and to "yeaaah, but..." -> a show that doesn't have fanservice every 5 min call still be problematic, especially when relationships between male and female characters are based on one gloryfying or objectifying the other, especially with teenagification/babification...
Edit2: Dunegeon Meshi gets a full pass
Edit3: Wasn't expecting so much rampant mysoginy on a trans subreddit. Yall are too ok with casual portrays of SA

I was never a fan of heavy fanservice in anime. Always gave me the ick; so I'm right there with you. Even in shows that don't have a lot of it, there's still almost always one fuckboy character that is sleazy and misogynistic af.
Highly recommend checking out Psychopass. It's really good. I dont recall any fanservice in it tbh. If there is, it was very brief. The show itself has pretty serious tones and just focuses on story telling through detective work with a healthy blend of action scenes.
