    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").

    "The Promised Neverland" if you stick with season 1. Heard season 2 went in a different direction from the manga unfortunately.
