I've only seen a few eps but it seems pretty good. Not too bad, the fanservice seems to be left at cleavage and maybe Mikoto's frequent hugging Mai, anything else is implied though (unless I forgot something). On the other hand fan service doesn't bother me usually because it isn't "servicing" me at all.
Anyone elses thoughts?

i'm a fan of Mai-Hime too, thoe only other noticable fanservice is the liengere theif episode, the story is now getting into all the really cool plotlines,

I've only seen the first 3 episodes of Mai HiME, and I'm debating whether or not to watch the 4th, I hear it's pretty bad, but from what I've seen so far, the series looks pretty good.

I've seen up to episode 12 and I really like the series. Its on my short list of anime to bittorrent. As for content, I haven't found anything particularly objectionable. There are hints of shojou-ai, but nothing in an overtly sexual way.
As for the show itself, its a fairly standard magic girl/mecha show with a little more emphasis on the characters rather than battles.
My rating:

<<nd maybe Mikoto's frequent hugging Mai>>
Not too start an argument but girls do that all the time it's a freindly greeting.

just a warning guys, stay away from the manga (even though its only being scanslated right now). Seems that Sunrise chose to change the storyline a lot, so much that they could actually show it on TV when the story reaches the later chapters of the manga. there's some pretty violent scenes (including rape 
) and I was extremely shocked when I turned into that section.

That's quite disturbing...
