    Fire Force, for a little narrative John Pervert. Cast has magic powers, some have drawbacks. Young Lady in the show has the “Lucky lecher lure” where accidents will happen with her and men where her clothes will fall off and she’ll end up in uncomfortable poses (ass or titties pressed into the guy, or poses that expose everything). Neither party wants it to happen and she fucking hates it.

    It made it so uncomfortable to watch I literally stopped because of it. Ruined their pretty good story with really gross, nonconsensual fan service.

      Ah, the Juggernaut scene? I literally dropped it then and there. Infuriatingly tone-deaf scene.

      The best part is that according to the author that character wasn’t originally in the story, publishers pressured him to put in some fanservice, and he crated that character out of spite.

        This isn’t the first time the author has done this. An earlier show of his, Soul Eater, has a character that is a cat with the ability to turn into a woman. She doesn’t have any clothes on when in her human form, and she loves to prank the human characters by transforming at the worst times. Fortunately, she is only the protagonists roommate, so you can go episodes at a time without seeing her, since the gang leaves her at home when they go out on missions.

        I wonder if that was spite fanservice too?
