@73.42: There are 2 kinds of fanservice:

1-The one based around Rule of Sexy, common in Shonen animes. These have giggle physics, big boobs and asses, revealing clothing, spectacular abs, and use common fanservice tropes.

2-The more literal fanservice, which is directed at the fans, and is not necesarily based around Rule of Sexy.

RWBY uses the 2nd kind. Now do you understand why people say that?
