Oh it's never ok. I'm just saying that it's not unprecedented either. What I mean is, the plot is way out there, but the actually storytelling is very grounded. I think it paints the Arume in a very "human" light, even if they can be looked at as alien monsters.
And yeah these two struck me as bad examples of the race. I doubt all of them are as "sinister" but it does seem like most are extremely sexual. On the other hand, the whole idea of a special district where men are banned (and killed on sight if found) does fit with everything I've seen so far and certainly adds to the "Arume are not good people" theme.
Meh, I guess I'm just torn. It's nice to see antagonists who don't fit into the generic bad guy category but the protagonists aren't exactly perfect either.
