The difference being that the heroes ain't chaste either, but get modesty censors while side characters don't.

@eroock, but in this case, the main character is also doing the fanservice, but the creators go out of their way to cover it up. So the trope is about the divide between the the two.

Seconding Fanservice Extra for this - these characters exist as a sort of bonus fanservice added on just to have nudity or whatever. What you're describing is the tendency for them to act as a sort of surrogate fanservice when the main characters aren't as blatantly sexualized.
