I've got two words for the fans who voted on this: Outlaw Star.

Most of the hot springs episodes on the poll are from fairly recent series I mean is it that hard to remember a spa episode from an older series. Confused

My first thought as well. I mean, come on, the #1 on the male's list is still full of convenient censorship/covering. Outlaw Star goes all the way. It's also a hilarious, actually plot-relevant episode.

Apparently ANN has joined the bandwagon in redefining "filler" as "scenes that don't advance the plot" rather than "something that didn't exist in the original material".

Once again, this list makes no damn sense. These people don't know iconic scenes. Makes me upset a little. Nisekoi, To Love ru, there are so many older (and probably) even better omes. Smh

Well because a lot of the time it has a similar purpose. Scenes and chapters that are completely unnecessary and are only added to fill time and stretch things isn't exclusive to anime it happens in manga as well.

Just as anime creators will have producers breathing down their necks telling them to add a fanservice episode mangaka have the same thing.

It has almost the exact same purpose to meet quotas and "fill" time so they are fillers.

Nowhere does it say the most racy ones, or anything like it.

I guess I'm a little surprised with No Game No Life's hot springs episodes being popular with women too.

I only acknowledge the hot springs (not even the focus of the episode) episode in episode 101 of Naruto due to Sakura.

Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu aired over 13 years ago I doubt anyone not in there mid 20's or older remember it.
