Space Adventure Cobra was some sort of ultimate fantasy for every hetero-horny male teen of the 80s: Almost every single female character looked like a porn-star, were scantily-dressed, and constantly appeared naked for no reason in almost every episode.
The male characters, on the other side, with the exception of the protagonist, were mostly-ugly and beastly-looking (And for some reason, most of them were aliens of some sort. The female aliens were extremely rare, and I think they just were about 4 or 5. And they looked like regular humans, just with weird skin colors)
The only shower scene featuring Cobra was ridiculously censored with a bubble underwear, while all the female nudity scenes were completely gratuitous.
But even in a show like this, I found something to like.
Weird to think how the closest thing I ever had to male fan-service (Besides of Dog Savallas occasional Barbie-doll nudity on the final episodes) was a shower scene featuring a weird-plant monster. (I think his name was Tarvage.)
Don't know if said scene was intended to be creepy or something like that, but I still appreciate the plant-monster gratuitous shower scene. Made me appreciate this anime way more.
