Looking for a new manga like one piece, but without as much fanservice, any suggestions?
I've developed a sort of love-hate relationship with one piece, especially since the timeskip, as the female characters have all gotten a makeover that seems to promote maximum fanservice, but almost every other aspect of the series is still too good for me to drop it entirely.
This is especially upsetting as one of the things that drew me to it initially was the way the female characters were often given key roles in the plot, and while often not as strong as the male characters, they were often shown as more competent than the male characters, and actually had a purpose beyond the common "fanservice and/or DID/ Love interest" that is all too common in manga/anime (IMO)
Well, "akainu there are a lot of things I could say to this answer, but I think I'll just go with:
You have your standards, I have mine.
