This is actually a pretty interesting post. Disregarding the somewhat nonsensical argument that you'd have to watch a show that is described as a "magical girl fanservice anime" in order to know that it is shitty (it's pretty much shitty by definition), there's the much more interesting subject of
the general watchability of anime from the 1970's to deal with.
In anime, the 70's as an era can pretty much be said to have lasted between 1970 (Ashita no Joe, which is pretty much The Beginning of Anime) and late 1978 or early 1979 (Kidou Senshi Gundam, Captain Harlock, Galaxy Express 999; these all belong to the 80's more than they belong to the 70's). During this time period, about 150 anime series were produced for television. Today, about three (or maybe five if you're feeling really generous) of these can be considered to have been so influential or are so historically significant that they might be worth watching for someone who is a huge anime nerd, but you'd better bring a lot of fucking patience because most of them are
really fucking boring, even to an interested viewer. Note that I said "influential or historically significant", not "good". They might have been A Thing at the time, but to a modern viewer they just aren't very interesting. At all.
Either way, Majokko Megu-chan is not one of those influential series, and thus, there really aren't any legitimate reasons for watching at all. [mod edit: removed attack] There are three thousand years' worth of literature out there waiting for you if human imagination is your thing, or fifteen billion light years of universe in any direction waiting to be explored if the wonders of nature is your thing.
