Jay Young's definitions
As stated above, "fanservice" came from Japanese anime, film, and music culture. Its definition is spreading to include any unnecessary visuals included simply because the fans, presumably, want to see them. Gratuitous nudity, male or female, but also shots of cute mascot animals (e.g., Chuchu the mouse in "Utena").
Jay (watching a Chinese wuxia film): They just spent ten minutes showing us Alec Su taking a bath.

Get the dip mug.The hero of a series of short stories, novellas and one novel by pulp fiction author Robert E. Howard (1906-1936). Conan is a wandering swordsman whose travels take him into improbable adventures with scheming wizards and lusty wenches. The stories take place on Earth, in pre-Atlantean times. These stories pretty much gave birth to the term sword and sorcery for a certain kind of fantasy tale. Learn more about Howard at rehoward.com.
