Anime began in 1910 as a Japanese form of animated film with storylines and characters (Wikipedia). AI text-to-image anime art allows the creator of an anime image to skip the complex and often tedious process of developing animated film – focusing instead on a 'fan service', which is the term used to describe images intended to meet viewer/audience expectations.

 

The anime images below depict various anime styles and are taken from the 'girl' and 'fantasy' pages of a popular AI text-to-image art generating platform. The 'fan service' provided by these images could include sexual arousal and is explored here.

 

Once again, when first published not one of the images was labelled 'NSFW' despite flagrantly portraying adolescent girls with exaggerated body parts in suggestive poses (violating the platform's community standards)
