Most other series, especially those with Harem elements, you'll find that it's the female population that is more empowered and pretty much out numbered the guys- Though not always true that the guys would be weaker, but it's a case of more often than not.

Either they're super strong that they wow the crowds, or their powers are situational and are used as trump cards, or they're super weak that they have to hide behind the girls and give orders like pokemon trainers, or worse- be used as cheap labor.

thanks for info,i feel stupid for never noticing this though

Judging from the afterwords of the first volume, I'll say that he had to do some research to see how the 'magic' system works in the real world.
i really need to read more carefully...
