In March 2021, a small group of protestors appeared in Tokyo's Koganei, where this show takes place, outside an event promoting the series. The event had cardboard cut-outs of the anime characters for people to pose with for photos, and there was even a local politician on hand to show his support for the series. The protestors, who are part of a local women's rights organization, held posters and passed out fliers reading things like, "People of Koganei, this is an anime not to show your children," "Junior high school girls appear in school bathing suits in this anime," and, "This anime has scenes with junior high girls in their underwear getting dressed." They also contacted the city expressing their displeasure. However, the city replied that it isn't thinking of cutting ties with the anime.
