We weren’t kidding earlier when we spoke of only one series having any complete ecchi focus. How Not to Summon a Demon Lord Ω is the only 100% series deemed ecchi out there this season and that means if you didn’t like the first season…you’re kind of out of luck. Making matters worse, How Not to Summon a Demon Lord Ω hasn’t been that great overall and while it does have a lot of ecchi—you can find oppai shower scenes and panty shots galore in this season—the story is pretty weak versus the first season.

Many of you oppai/pantsu-loving anime viewers might be panicking as this lack of ecchi season could spell the end of the genre forever. Well, in our opinions here at Honey’s Anime, this lack of ecchi makes sense. If you examine the last four or five seasons of anime you’ll notice the ecchi genre was pretty jam-packed. There was Gleipnir, Food Wars: The Fifth Plate, The Hidden Dungeon Only I Can Enter and Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation. This is just naming the few “well-received” ecchi anime as there are even more shows that aired in the last year of anime. As much as we love our big oppai and seeing girls’ undergarments revealed for no reason, we equally do love other genres too. Too much cake leads to a stomach ache and too much ecchi leads to nosebleeds that could cause dizzy spells.

We know many of you probably are already scrambling to My Anime List and their seasonal section to see if the summer will bring out more ecchi series but we have sad news for you otaku out there. Sadly, summer 2021 doesn’t look like it will have many ecchi series either and that is truly worrying. Don’t give up hope yet though readers. Anime is a constantly changing world and while we don’t see a lot of series announced yet, there could be a shift and various shows could release with an ecchi focus.

Now don’t fret if you are truly worried you won’t get your fill of giant oppai or scantily clad anime ladies this season. There is ecchi to be found, just not where you might think to find it. Several anime have some not-so-hidden ecchi in the form of lingerie scenes and large oppai reveals. Full Dive has one of our favorite anime girls of spring 2021—Reona Kisaragi—showing her giant assets almost every episode. There are also numerous ecchi shots in Don’t Toy With Me, Miss Nagatoro thanks to the playful main female lead Hayase Nagatoro. You might not find tons of nosebleed-inducing series this spring 2021 but there are just enough to tantalize your perverted anime hearts.
