In the second episode a girl asks for help. The protagonist helps her. To help her even more he offers to provide protective gear for her. She is then asked ''Are you worthy to receive this?''. Her answer is something along the lines of ''No. I am selfish for asking for help and I am not worthy to be saved from harm.'' and then she is worthy to be helped and saved from harm. She actually say that she tricked the protagonist into helping her by asking him to help her. I don't understand the logic behind that.

What the actual heck is the moral lesson in this scene? Why are you worthy to be saved from harm if you think you deserve harm? Who have authority to answer which innocent person is or is not worthy to be saved from, in this case, rape and abuse? Is it not the one providing the gift that decide who gets the gift? The clothes are free and the enchant is basically like an autograph so time and money is not an issue. The only thing relevant here is if her life is worth protecting and the right answer is apparently no.

Why is answering this question with ''I asked for help so I am clearly selfish. I actually tricked the protagonist by asking for help(?). I overall deserve harm if I can't handle this alone.'' an acceptable answer? It shows a lack of self respect and a really twisted view on life itself. Or is it fine if you think you deserve harm but other do not? It's the strangest lesson on values I've seen in an anime. I know Japan does things differently, but come on. This is not lollicon, tentacles or harem. This is straight up masochistic. And its encouraged!

This was all i had to say on this. It's overall a decent anime.

score 2/10
