Get the genshin impact fans mug.In anime, fanservice stands for scenes which are not relevant to the overall plot at all, but merely are included to give the viewers what they presumably want to see. This generally includes things like panty shots, bouncing boobs, shower scenes, skirts which barely cover the crotch area, but can also be things like incredibly overexaggerated explosions, giant robots or supercute animals.
Do an image search for "Agent Aika" and you will see. That series basically is ONLY fanservice without a plot.

factsplained; factsplaining
Definition of factsplain
transitive + intransitive
: the uninvited and condescending effort of a third party (usually, though not always, on social media platforms) to offer extraneous information (“context”) or further explanation on a given subject/topic, while invariably posing itself as objectively factual, despite its content and purpose invariably being the promotion or defense of a partisan (progressive, leftist) idea, premise, value, cause, figure, etc.
It is often characterized by cloaking subjective opinions and partisan perspectives amidst the excessive use of officious-sounding terms and declarations such as “Ruling” “Context” “Evidence” “Credible” “Finding” “Determination” “Conclusion” “Result”, etc. or may strive to confirm or deny information on the basis of mere nuance, minor technicalities, irrelevancies, or other specious rationale.
In both form and content, factsplaining attempts to discredit the original information, although rarely if ever actually doing so, and its presence therefore may best be understood as a strong indicator of the original content’s truth or accuracy.
Prominent factsplainers: Factcheck, Politifact, Snopes, Reuters, AP
See also: bias, propaganda, spin, gaslighting, censorship, partisanship
