There’s a lot of terrible anime, but there’s also a lot of fantastic anime. There’s a lot of anime.
An no fan service/no upskirt/cleavage shots.
And no racist depictions.
I was going to say Knights of Sydonia, but in not sure all of those are strictly followed. At least there’s nothing overt. And a fantastic sci-fi to boot.
Edit: started re-watching on a lark and there’s A LOT more overt fan service than I remembered. At least it passes the Bechdel Test.

Thus concludes the exhaustive list of animes I’ve watched where I didn’t have to put up with any sexualization of minors
I don’t even know what’s on that one page
Delicious in Dungeon, Frieren, Hands off my Eizouken, and Bocchi the Rock probably
Edited to add Spy x Family, and I suppose Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood depending on if one feels Winry is sexualized.
