I really enjoyed the beginning of the episode when Chifuyu explained to Cookie-chan how she spoiler[lacked common sense with respect to asking about homework during summer break.] Very cute.

What's the point of the characters having powers if they never use them? You could strip the show of all supernatural aspects and it would be pretty much the same story. The powers have been so infrequently used that at this point they're not even on the level of a gimmick.

I really, really don't understand why don't they just remove the lolis from the series, if they are so intent on shaming their fans and not giving a speck of fanservice of them.
Disgusting, that's why I hate token lolis in harems.

Ah yes, good old Sunny Milk and his not creepy at all attitude that unless you show lolis being jammed on erect penises there is just no point in showing them at all. Rolling Eyes

This is going to shock you to your core, Chester the Molestor, but there are some of us who like lolis simply for their cute factor as opposed to seeing them as fap material. Your mind is blown, isn't it?

There is difference between being jammed on erect penises, and showing mild fanservice.
This is just shaming lolis and lolicons alike. At least they could have shown their bodies naturally, not always covered up completely.
But then again, when a staff hates lolis, it really shows.

Oh no, we didn't get to see naked underage animated characters!!!

Who do I write to in an effort to remedy this horrific situation???

Your irony is pretty stupid, when I explicitly state "mild fanservice" which doesn't mean "naked lolis" nor "jammed on erect penises".
Just a little bit of decent looking and drawn lolis in swimsuit.
You know, the kind of stuff the novel has.
Why am I even trying to argue with a self righteous, satisfied person who loves to shit on people with different taste, and laugh at them not getting to see a little fanservice that suits their taste.
Just because you get your big breast service everywhere. Good for you, now please pat yourself on your back that you can kick in people who try to find harmless alternatives.

Anyone whining about not getting the delicately calibrated amount of underage animated character fanservice they yearn for should be prepared to experience a bit of well-earned mockery.

Well earned mockery for wanting a harem/fanservice series to not make an exception of the loli and - going as far as to change the source material - remove any trace of fanservice? Even as mild as a half decent school swimsuit shot?
No, sir, you are just being loliphobic, and not being able to tolerate a valid complaint about something that collides with your taste, and while at it, talking down from your moral highground.

I'm not afraid of lolis, therefore I cannot be described as loliphobic. Dudes who are bitter over not getting their loli fanservice do make me nervous, however, on behalf of any unsupervised RL children who may fall into their clutches.

So then you are loliconphobic.
And just so you know, there's a difference only looking lolis as "fapmaterial" and wanting to appreciate a bit of them in a fanservicy manner.
It's just like how not all people want to watch porn, yet they appreciate sensual scenes of their favorite actress.

I wouldn't call myself a Loli lover but I don't dislike them either. For me, Loli's are there to provide cuteness and some scenes of awkwardness. Kobato and Maria from Haganai for example.

With the way that our government are clamping down on anything slightly child looking, it's coming to the point where putting K-ON! on is rather risky, even if it's Moe.

All that being said, I get that some people want to see some Loli fan-service and the last episode delivered that with both Chifuyu and Kuki both in swimsuits. Chifuyu also dressed up in a bondage set earlier in the season if memory serves me right.

I think you're just going to have to accept that however different the manga/ light novels are to the anime, with four older and more endowed female leads that can be exploited, they aren't going to show anything too fanservicey for Loli lovers.

I may be totally wrong but if you asked the 'general audience' wether you would rather seeing Sayumi, Tomoyo, Hakoto, Mirei or Chifuyu in a revealing swimsuit (for example), the answer would be mostly one of the four older females.

That's kind of the joke. What changes when you get superpowers? Answer: not much.

In regards to the lolis, their swimsuits are right in my strike zone so I ain't complaining! Waaaaay better than some kind of skimpy bikini.

This show has actually been pretty light on fanservice in the first place.
