Once-per-volume. And it's stuff like accidentally grabbing something. There are volumes where there's nothing at all.

There's romcom service, but that doesn't include any sexual context.

It (I believe) doesn't have a lot of fanservice but when it does it the max it'll extend to is nudity.

Have we forgotten about the volume 3 Ikaruga scene? That fanservice was not accidental.

It was incidental, but it does abide by the once-in-volume rule.

The amount of fan service does go down in later volumes and in more serious volumes there is none at all.

Which volumes are serious?

All of them.

There's no fan service to speak of. Volume by volume in spoiler below.

Spoiler:

1. One boob grab.
2. Nothing worth calling "fanservice".
3. One kiss and a hug by a naked girl.
4. One girl shows herself half-naked.
5. Nothing.
6. Nothing worth calling "fanservice".
7. Nothing.
8. Omgz, a hotsprings chapter!
9. Nothing.
10. Nothing worth calling "fanservice".
11. A lap pillow.

That's about all you can find in all 11 volumes. There's some romcom back&forth, but this novel doesn't really have anything worth calling "fanservice". Even the scenes where something like that happens (like point 3.) are heavily tied with the story, with sole exception of (pt 8).

Although some might argue that there's more, calling any other scenes that are in "fanservice" would be a huge overstatement.

Well there couldn't be any beach chapter in that setting so the author had to go with a random hotspring chapter instead.
In a series with a harem there has to be at least 1 fanservice chapter with all of the harem members or else the fans will rage.

I don't remember that happen in this story, are those just examples you were using?

Read the whole sentence again, Hokoga.

To be fair though Vol 4 is a bit of an exception to the "1 fanservice scene per novel" rule ;-)

Also I wouldn't call that half-naked ^^ (Ikaruga Suginami Presents ftw! )

ಠ_ಠ . . . . . . thanks for pointing that out, now if you will excuse me, I have to go find my dunce cap and then go sit in the corner.

Spoiler:

[obnuchious]

then what about the scenes where various girls coming out of the shower of his apartment...? ..that's not fanservice?

"Various girls" you mean vol 4's Usagi's scene I mentioned already right?

Honestly speaking, by current standards it's hardly fanservice. If I were to compare it with HSDxD, Shinmai and the like where it doesn't end at "peek" like here, but escalates to groping and sexual context in every chapter, I'd say I haven't seen a single fanservice scene in the entire novel.

[Wandering Soul]

Actually there was another one of those scenes in volume 2 with Mari and Ouka.

Spoiler for volume 2 scene:

The two of them entangled and fell in Takeru's direction, the three crashed in front of the entrance. Takeru fell down in a way that made him face the two naked girls.

As dust rose up faintly, Mari's face displayed fury.

"Hey you...! What's up with you jumping out of the bath suddenly!"

"I-i-it, it came out! G-g-gh-ghost...! A-a woman with long hair... from the bathtub!"

Ouka was shaking with a blue face as she held onto Mari and Takeru. Mari looked with an amazed face at Ouka who was unexpectedly trembling.

In that situation,

"Uh... umm....... this, this it not my fault right? It's definitely not my fault right?"

Mari and Ouka noticed Takeru under their chests.

Because Takeru held out both of his hands trying to stop them as they collapsed, his left hand grasped Mari's breast, while his right grasped Ouka's breast.

It was a really contrasting feeling to him, it was *funifuni* in his left hand, and *munimuni* in his right.

The feeling was about the same, but Takeru could not afford to enjoy this bliss.

The two of them noticed their chests were groped, and stared at Takeru. Being stared at, his face turned red in no time and he made a crooked smile as he prayed to god...

As expected, he was beaten up by the two of them this time.

[AceTrigger]

Are the villains of this series any good? I've seen some people praising "Haunted" as one of the best villains of battle harems.

[charasu]

they are'll have some mental problem, so yeah, the villians was awesome.
===================

just hope this series not get licensed after anime finished, like what happen with BB....

[zztop]

NOBODY EXPECTS THE MAGIC INQUISITION!!
(platoon suddenly runs up from various hiding places)

Our chief weapons are surprise, fear, surprise and cool uniforms!

[Tenzen12]

Villains are in most time one dimensionally evil, sadistic bastards. Expect edginess and coolness but not depth (which pretty much describe whole novels).

[Wandering Soul]

Well guys it appears the anime is going to be split cour. Only 12 episode were listed on Amazon.

Yeah, just started reading this series and I getting bored of the antagonists who have no depth, no development and feels like characters made of cardboard. As of now I cannot feel anything for the bad guys, no hate or such, just pure boredom. Will it get better in the later volumes?
