Without giving anything away, throughout the entirety of the episodes the moral argument over revenge and victimhood will be touched. In my opinion the story arced pretty well in tandem with the character development. Guess his expectations for typical anime eye candy thralls were not met. He considered them worse than their aggressors. One reviewer, most likely a guy due to the vehement but dull rhetoric, was appalled that the girl characters engaged in retaliation. People who watch harem anime on a regular basis are squeamish at the concept of revenge apparently. And here is where, I guess, the dregs of the anime fandom got on their high horses and brought the show's rating even lower.

Naturally the next plot waypoint is revenge. But that's just the surface of the story. Girls who experienced unspeakable suffering at the hands of other people were selected to receive magical artefacts, or "sticks", as compensation.

I won't go as far as saying is profound but it touches the uneasy subject of misery. In fact the tone and execution of this anime of pretty grim. The abysmal score is a consequence of viewers who were expecting something like Sailor Moon.
