But that's the thing, Senran Kagura doesn't fall into either of those two categories in my opinion. I can totally understand why most people probably would be averse to playing Senran Kagura, because it definitely has got a lot of fanservice. That being said, if you were to remove the fanservice, the game would still be an extremely solid 3rd person beat 'em up. I think it's unfair to say that Senran Kagura would be a mediocre at best game if you took away the fanservice. That's pretty much the one thing that makes it stand out, the fact that you buy an anime tiddy game expecting to get some anime tiddy and then you end up with gameplay that is really fun, together with a well thought out character progression system. Out of curiousity, have you played Estival Versus? This isn't me trying to call you out or anything, it's just that what you're describing Senran Kagura as sounds a lot like myself before I played the games.
