Feminism isn't neutering female sexuality. Something isn't misogynist just because it's sexy.
Instead, the 10-episode adaptation blends spot-on callbacks of moments from the anime with both subtle and substantial narrative changes — most noticeably around the show’s women, that allow the series to stand on its own.

When a piece of media is no longer enjoyable to you, you can stop watching it any time. You can critique its execution of difficult topics.
Call me when you have to fucking divorce a video game, jfc.
Encountering something you don't like or even something triggering in media is not a violation of "consent." It's a frankly gross bastardization of language to act as if that's the case.
