The problem is, if this show was supposed to be some kind of jab at fans of Da Capo, Angel Beats!, ect., the storytelling is so blatant but the characters are so sincere it's like the show suffered an identity crisis. Maybe the characters can be more disrespectful next time a series like this comes up so it's clear it's making fun of us.
It's like two gears smoothly moving each other and drastically changing the tooth size of one gear without changing the tooth size of the other gear; it doesn't change the function, it just kinda makes it stop.
