When young Princess Syalis is kidnapped and imprisoned by the Demon King, she's rather indifferent about her situation. But she quickly comes to a terrible realisation—she can't sleep soundly in such an uncomfortable bed! She soon escapes her cell and sets off in search of ways to improve her sleep quality, leaving the castle's inhabitants, and even the Demon King himself, scrambling to keep the unruly princess out of trouble during her chaotic adventures.

    There's a lot of good anime without fanservice if you find that sort of stuff icky, in all genres too.

    * The Promised Neverland (Thriller / Shonen)

    * Sleepy Princess in the Demon Castle (Comedy)

    * Spirited Away (And really, virtually everything by Miyazaki has no fanservice)

    * Oddtaxi (Film Noir / Zootopia world)

    * Little Witch Academia (Iyashikei / Healing genre / School)

    * Full Metal Alchemist (Battle / Epic Journey anime)

    * Fate / Zero (while the Fate/series in general has fanservice and/or harem tropes, Fate/Zero has none)

    * Your Lie in April (Romance / Drama)

    I know some people just find the fanservice scenes icky, so I try to keep an eye out for the fanservice-free shows for them.

    There are also some kinds of nudity which are more artistic in nature rather than fanservice. I think Spice and Wolf handled that sort of thing well for example: Holo's occasional nudity is somewhat representative of her Wolf Goddess form / Pagan diety background, and I don't think it was really used too much for what most would call fanservice (and certainly fit the setting of "Pagan Diety travels across Europe with Merchant").
