I just wish Okada hadn't needed to make the principal and vice-principal so cartoonishly evil in order to do that. The one issue (and it's admittedly a minor one) I had with O Maidens is that the principle and vice-principle don't really seem like believable characters...I mean, they're introduced by trying to shut down the literature club of all things (wouldn't a high school principle know that modern literature has a lot of sex in it?), and their big contribution to the conflict is trying to expel a model student based on hearsay just to make their no-dating policy more effective. Like, sure, they needed to be hardasses to make them work in their role, but they just seem like they're doing everything in the most pointlessly evil way possible, which kinda takes me out of the story.
I'm not saying O Maidens is anything but an amazing show..after all, Persona 5 had the exact same problem, and that's a brilliant game. But it just seems like a lot of Japanese works with themes of rebellion feel the need to undercut their message by making the authority being rebelled against unrealistically cruel.
