100% bet that if this was it's own show not produced by CrunchyRoll and wasn't made from embezzled money the show would not have garnered this much hatred towards it.

You can blame all of the hatred on the teaser video from 2 years ago. It was the equivalent of saying that your restaurant is so diverse because only women work in the kitchen, that by using a stove-top, you are able to do things creatively with food that other restaurants have forgotten how to do. Then, after having your customers wait for 2 hours, you bring out a plate of plain boiled hot dogs as an appetizer.
