YMMV / Witch Girls Adventures

• Draco in Leather Pants: The Malleus Maleficarum gets this among critics of the setting, because of how self-centered the witches can be, combined with the ability to act on this bitchiness through Forced Transformation, disintegration, and casual murder. In the actual canon, they're an evil gang whose tragic experiences with witches lead them to consider merely being a witch a crime punishable by death, and will gladly kill witches who aren't evil and use their powers for the benefit of others or in self-defense, or children who don't know any better than to turn people they don't like into toads just because they can.
• Nightmare Fuel: Really, the whole setting is terrifying if you think about it.
  • Its basic setting precept? There's a Mage Species walking this world who are can be described as entire species of Spoiled Brat Reality Warpers — the typical witch is presented as if you took a particularly vicious and spiteful little girl, gave her the power to do anything she can envision, complete with an entire society that encourages her to be as mean and cruel as she wants to be, and then gave her immortality with which to do whatever she wants.
  • The many, many, many horrific displays of witch powers include every flavor of Forced Transformation you can imagine, from turning people into animals, or fully conscious but immobile objects, or food - which is then consumed by the Witch, feeding people to animals or magical monsters, Mind Rape, and flat-up disintegrating people.
• Too Bleak, Stopped Caring: Let's see: on one side, you've got a bunch of self-centered, impulsive kids with powerful magic who see no problem with using their powers to do horrible things to ordinary people over the pettiest slights. On the other hand, you've got a society of vicious Knight Templars who are so consumed with Fantastic Racism against witches that they'll even go after the few who actually use their power for non-selfish purposes.
• Unintentionally Sympathetic: The Malleus Maleficarum are, again, supposed to be psychotic, murderous, child-killing practitioners of Fantastic Racism. But because witches themselves are presented as such awful, terrifying beings, and the Malleus Maleficarum is explicitly stated to be made up of people who have suffered "tragedy" as a result of crossing the paths of a witch, there are many readers who argue that the Maleficarum's stance is not only justified, but makes them the Only Sane Man.
• Unintentionally Unsympathetic: It's literally stated that Witches are not only allowed to do whatever they want to muggles so long as they don't break Witch Society's very few rules, but actively encouraged to be as spiteful and vindictive as they like. Made worse by the comics, which seem to go out of their way to present witches in the absolute worst possible light by showcasing just how monstrous, selfish and sadistic they can be.
