Are fanservice-y characters (i.e. Lara Croft, Tifa Lockhart) immediately bad?

Let's be honest, her entire character is the epitome of the sexy pinup girl that Hollywood has pushed on us for generations.

One of my favorite examples, Jessica Rabbit:

It is entirely possible to have a sexualized character to be well written and vital to the story they are in.

Is it possible that my TF caused a kundalini awakening in another person? He is famous because He is a singer. We have not met physically yet, but I have gone through kundalini awakening and DNOTS and their ongoing. I have also had soul recognition so I know for sure that He is my Divine Counterpart and I do not have any doubts about it. But it is indeed perplexing that somebody had an awakening at the physical level because of Him. Is it a test for me? I have a mixture of feelings. On one hand I marvelled at Him and empathised with the person and on the other, I doubt if this just a test for me. I would appreciate your pov. Thank you for much.

Lara Croft is the main character of her games and movies, and Tifa is a valuable support character in her games and movies.

How a character is written and how a character is drawn are two different things, and usually the product of two (or more) different people.

So I have to wonder what you mean by “fanservice-y”?

Still, Jessica is well written, and an important part of the movie story. Particularly when we realize everything she did in the movie was because she genuinely loved her husband:

Thanks, Toyman, for clearing that up.
