Heh, well, OK, there's that.

(Although as I believe I have previously observed, if you scratch the paint even a tiny bit, the A-arc of Book 1 is astonishingly rapey. I think that's the main reason I hated it so. My flesh just crawls at the subtext there. On Nickelodeon, for fuck's sake.)

It was like they realized it, too, and deliberately set out to lampshade it with the "attention hentai fan artists: start your engines" scene early in Book 2.
