Mine’s Chobits - It’s a head of its time, it has a banger OP, and Sugita Tomokazu is a great comedy MC VA.

It’s a little cheating, however. I liked it for other aspects and it only happens to have an ecchi tag in MAL.

The Greats

Gushing Over Magical Girls - Unexpectedly good comedy, character writing, action, and wholesome moments. While still being incredibly horny.

Interspecies Reviewers - Overtly horny, but the humour is strong enough to stand on its own. Also better worldbuilding and more respectful towards women than 95% of anime.

Worth Checking Out

Classroom For Heroes - Standard shonen fanservice slop: overpowered idiot hero inadvertently collecting an admiring harem. Nothing original, but I felt it pulled it off better than most.

Immoral Guild - Sex comedy where monsters do naughty things to female adventurers. The male lead is a notable improvement over the the usual idiot horndog protagonist.

No Game No Life - Borderline ecchi? Has a lot of fanservice, but it’s not the main focus. The non-ecchi content is quite good.

Prison School - Sex comedy thriller. It’s pretty wild; incredibly kinky, but not always in a sexy way? You don’t watch this show to be titillated; you watch it to see how many times it can cross the line.

From the “I can’t believe this isn’t hentai!?” end of the spectrum, I really enjoyed Interspecies Reviewers.

For something from the other end (let’s call it “Barely Ecchi” to go with the theme here), I would choose Agent AIKa. To me, Aika will always be a Best Girl contender.

Gushing Over Magical Girls.

It knows to embrace its identity as an ecchi anime.

This is probably going to sound like the most milquetoast take but my favorite has probably got to go to Interspecies Reviewers. I went in expecting the stupidest raunchy antics and instead got some of the best worldbuilding I’ve ever seen for a fantasy anime. It also directly led to me checking out one of my favorite anime (for entirely different reasons), Interviews with Monster Girls AKA Demi-chan Kataritai.

Some honorable mentions, tho:

Golden Boy, for a fun, raunchy comedy with a character who doesn’t turn into a total creep

The Qwaser of Stigmata AKA Seikon No Qwaser for being unapologetically batshit insane throughout while still maintaining an air of being like a sex-filled FMA

I’d have to say H-Gata B-Kei

  Given the premise, it was surprisingly tame. I would personally not consider it ecchi, and from what I remember, it was just a heartfelt romance show.

    Fair, it’s been so long since I watched it I forgot it doesn’t go very far. Thinking back I didn’t watch much ecchi because the trope of the MC being too shy to go all the way always annoyed me.

im an anime fan but don’t do well at keeping up with the lingo so im not sure what ecchi is. I only recently learned what izakie means.

  Ecchi comes from the romanization of how the Japanese pronounce H, which is used to denote more-or-less explicitly sexual tones and themes – I cannot say with certainty the cultural context of the word in Japan but generally I think it would be equivalent to an MPAA R-rating (where most anime would fall under PG-13 equivalent ratings), as actual hentai/porn is considered a step or three above ecchi.
  
  As a side-note, I think you mean isekai, not izakie. Isekai is also a direct romanization of the Japanese word meaning “another world”, so if you ever come across pedantic arguments over what “counts” as isekai, it’s because of that.

    thanks. yeah im an atrocious speller even in english. so can something be ecchi if there is no nudity? LIke I think a lot of harem type stuff is very sexually suggestive but sorta remains clean a lot of times. Im trying to recall if high school double D’s even had any.
