Please buy!" strategy. It works, somewhat. It's easier for the production groups in negotiating time slots with the different TV stations (some are quite restrictive, so you open up the choices when your show is clean). I guess that's partly a public pressure thing? However, each instance where they majorly change the story to avoid a sex scene...there's likely to be a lot of peculiar factors in play which are unique to that show. Kiminozo just wouldn't work, for example, without the sex. Where as I guess there <i>is</i> a way to get around the sex (which IMO is dumb either way) in Fate.

Recently, it seems a lot like explicit fanservice has pretty much dissappeared from modern anime. Rewind a few years back, and you had stuff like Mahoromatic which was, dare I say it, chock full of nipples. And there were eroge adaptions like Tsukihime and Kimi ga Nozomu Eien which actually included sex. That sort of stuff seems to have died off in the last few years. The last TV anime I can recall that had explicit fanservice was Konomini, and that's early 2004. I wonder what it is that's caused this? Is it the whole Moe movement, or is it something more sinister, like the increase in (prudish) American stakes in the production of these series, or maybe a subtle change to try and make stuff more palatable for a US distributor to license? I hate to sound like a pervert, but I miss it. :( It’s interesting that you bring this up. Recently, it seems a lot like explicit fanservice has pretty much dissappeared from modern anime.

That's what I'm getting at, really. There is, but you must ask yourself: is there a huge difference between someone who watches a show with “normal” sex scenes and someone who watches a porn?
