Why do mangaka sexualize their female characters so much?
Their stories can be great as it is, then they ruin it by adding sex appeal which serves nothing to the story but as noise that degrade the good quality of such good manga.
Why?
Don't they want their manga to sell well?
Then don't mix porn in it as it only scares away potential readers and drives away existing readers who want to read a meaningful story.

No it didn't, fanservice being included is a guaranteed the way to tell a story is authentic and hasn't been handicapped by editors and managers kowtowing to investors and foreign publishers. If it doesn't have fanservice then the chance then it's usually soulless slop no better than AI, exceptions do exist of course but they're few and far between

Everything that appears in the manga is there because the artist wanted it to be there. If you want that removed, then you desire to erase the artists intentions which is censorship.
>Don't they want their manga to sell well?
Yes, and fan service doesn't detract from sales.
>Then don't mix porn in it as it only scares away potential readers
Why do you think it's called FAN service? It's there as a service for the fans.
>drives away existing readers who want to read a meaningful story
Fan service has existed in manga for 70 years or more now, and it has never been a problem until suddenly prudes like yourself think that they can tell Japanese artists that they have to censor their work because it doesn't align with your fucked up puritan values. Go fuck yourself.
>>

What manga is this?
>>
>>289833073
Fanservice is fine as long as it’s not of minors or little sister/daughter like characters, the only ones who think otherwise are puritans or pedophiles. But fanservice of sexy adult women with big tits and ass that is meant to induce a stiffy is healthy and normal.
>>
>>289834638
Dan service in all cases is fine including when it's of "minors" or little sister/daughter like characters. It's fiction, which means it's not real. Cry about it.

It’s fiction which means it’s not real AND someone is getting off on the idea of pedophilia to be drawing it in the first place.

I mean the Soccer Moms were unironically right, people who play violent video games likely have violent urges within them, the difference is that pedophilia and incest are the most disgusting & disturbing crimes in general and are worse and more unnatural than murder so the general public also has a right to be more disgusted by media outwardly courting/engaging pedos and inbreeders than it does when it courts violent gangbangers or serial killers.

NTA but I don’t think you can compare the two subjects because video games inherently involve motion sensor controls that activates our adrenaline so it’s not so much the thought of killing or harming someone that makes people want to play violent video games, but because that’s simply the action one has to do in order to enjoy the gameplay, sort of a means to an end kinda deal, the whole point is the feel of the controller & the in-game physics, not the killing or battling itself.

Sexually arousing fanservice however is a different matter, it’s a passive activity rather than active unlike gaming, so there’s no other point to it but to get aroused, so if you’re choosing to use lolis to sexually arouse then there’s really no other explanation around it other than you naturally find children arousing.

>>289833073
Yeah.

- I'm not defending rape.
- Incest is a nothingburger in 99% of cases and if it is then it's because you live in a commie country where you'd have to pay for a retarded child (most incest doesn't result in children).

The reason why Kimetsu no Yaiba couldn't be more popular than Shingeki no Kyojin internationally is exactly because the latter doesn't sexualize it's female characters at all.

It's all about being honest. Let's put it this way
If you suppress your carnal desire, you will suffer mentally. Which is why the most horniest people you know came from places that had super strict decency laws. They had no outlet to release their horniness in a healthy way.
>But you can just watch porn separately.
Porn are just stimulus. True carnal lust came from outside of the medium. And that's how you treat it. By putting fanservice in your manga.

>>289838142
Because men aren't subjected to being sexualized every breathing moment of their life. Imagine turning 13 years old and 40+ year old men start lusting after you by staring at you or even trying to groom you. And some sick fucks do this even earlier. Imagine how this has been a societal norm throughout history until now. So a little bit of male fan service isn't a big deal since most men are trash anyways.
>>
>>289833073
It was really mind blowing to see that skirts really are that short in Japan. I can't even imagine being high school age and surrounded by girls in skirts that short.
