1. This isn’t a direct quote, rather it is an amalgam paraphrasing a number of reviews of the show which can be found in the Review section of Kill la Kill on MAL. Of particular note are reviews by Polim67, Tmxbleweed, NeverKnowsBest26, and _mahoushoujos_.

6. To forestall uncharitable critique, here and in note 2, I have repeated the text verbatim to avoid condescending to the author, and focused on this particular review because it exemplifies very clearly this attitude about the series.
