First of all, to answer why is this manga so hated: the author mixed ecchi with dark shounen (I could call it a seinen, but let's be fair, it is not stretched that far). But don't let it stop you from reading it.

Usually ecchi audiences want the kink and light jokes and overall a non-serious vibe. Ecchi goes really well with slice of life anime, comedy, magical girls and all those frills.

2. Author's knowledge of a source material is zero to none. 
3. The plot was being constructed on the go all the way through, minimum planing involved.
4. Characters are bland and, what's even worse, inconsistent.
5. The plot is erratic and is composed ...
