is there something called "just the right amount of fanservice" or is any given amount excessive by nature?
Depends on how much fanservice you like.
If you don't like any fanservice at all, you shouldn't be watching anime.
Fanservice can make a work more entertainting or have some other purpose which can prove to be justified, so I think it isn't necessarily bad. Whether it's justified or not depends on multiple factors, such as what kind of story it is, what kind of fanservice it is and how it is handled. In Teppu there is fanservice which is handled decently enough as it doesn't bring the work down and (probably) makes it more enjoyable for the majority of it's readers, but it can also be immersion-breaking at the same time as it doesn't fit that well with the tone of the manga.

Any amount is not enough.
Depends on what kind of fanservice it is.
Depends on the anon.
Some like'em excessive, others don't like them at all.I'm the former.

This, it depends entirely on the show. Strike Witches would be shit without fanservice. Card Captor Sakura would be worse with fanservice. Saying fanservice is inherently good is just as stupid as saying its inherently bad.

Yes, it's no fanservice at all

I think fanservice in any amount is ok except when shit turns into "fanservice with story" anime
By definition, fanservice is good, so saying that any amount is excessive is retarded.

Do tell me how fanservice is useful in a story.
