Unnecessary and also debatable. Japan is considered one of the lowest countries in terms of gender equity. However, bringing it up in any way is unnecessary.

* ValuesDissonance: Shinonome's route in the VN has her get angry at her Financial Department campaign managers for using her sexiness to get more male votes (e.g. by selling risque pictures of her as merchandise, hanging sexy posters, spreading the rumor she's single, etc.). She claims that she wants to be elected for her intelligence and capabilities as a Student Council President, not her boobs, but the narrative actually presents her as ''wrong''. When she orders them to stop, she's depicted as selfish and unreasonable and ''Yuuki, the player character'', chastises her and makes her apologize for it. To Western readers, this may come off as weird at best and pretty awful at worst - but to the original, Japanese audience, this made perfect sense. Not because the Japanese are pro-sexism, mind you - but because they're so very pro-teamwork. To the Japanese mindset, what Shinonome did wrong wasn't wanting to be valued for her brains or disliking the sexy campaign, it was getting angry at her subordinates who worked so hard for their shared cause of winning the elections.

* InformedWrongness: Apparently it's bad that Satsuki doesn't use the corrupt campaigning tactics her subordinates want even though all they care about is winning for its own sake, not because of what they want for the school. Wanting to prove the validity of your positions isn't as important as victory, even if you only win because you're cute and boys just want to screw you.

** Prove you love me... by eating this chocolate!
** The latter parts of Michiru's route are often ridiculed and mocked for including [[spoiler:student council wiretaps, spies, brainwashing and assassinations.]]
* TearJerker: In episode 4, [[spoiler: Isara is ''brutally'' bullied, cornered and assaulted by a group of girls. She is forced to find her panties that had been thrown in the trash, and the episode ends with her tearfully collapsing in a pile of broken glass.]]
