Not to say bathscenes aren't kinda unnecessary, as they're mostly used for fanservice, but interestingly, I can only think of four Nami bathscenes, and none with Robin. In addition to that, most of which aren't used solely for fanservice. 1. The royal baths in Alabasta (Nami did reveal herself to a bunch of men, but she did it willingly and to extort them, so she was in full control there) 2. The inn bath in the Ocean's Dream filler arc (Mostly just to show her confused melancholy because of her amnesia, but this is the weakest example. 3. Her uncomfortable shower scene in Thriller Bark (Creeping on women in baths is *BAD*, don't do it children!) 4. Here (Which is partially an introduction to new worldbuilding and tech, making miniature clouds that rain on command) Additionally, this is only four scenes in about *418* episodes! And there hasn't really been a beach episode or a bathhouse episode or anything like that! Aside from awkward angles, I think One Piece is mostly winning in the 'being an anime that doesn't objectify women' contest.
