Seriously, by this point, the attempt of making another "deconstruction" (Curse you, Derrida. And curse you, Gen Urobuchi. And also curse all the people who keeps misusing this term) of magical girl cartoons is just as dull, unoriginal, lazy and stale as making "gritty" superhero deconstructions or "subversive" fairy tales where the prince charming is a jerk and the princess is a badass action hero.
And is also as unoriginal as making stories where Superman (Or a character resembling Superman) is evil.
Seriously, by now "subversive" magical girl shows are the norm, not the exception. Try "deconstructing" something else. (I personally suggest deconstructing trite adult cartoons like this.)
