Ann's bikini shot during the Beach Episodecreeped a few Western fans out, echoing the reaction to Rise's commercial at the start of Persona 4. However, fan service with high school students is very common in Japanese entertainment, and as such, there were almost no eyebrows raised by this at all in Japan.
For the following reason:
"I feel like this one specifically is badly stereotyping Japan based solely on limited entertainment."
Gonna have to disagree with the edit reason on this one. Fanservice with high school characters is extremely common in Japanese entertainment, and notably, the age of consent laws are lower than in most Western countries. Can't really call this a "stereotype".
