It wasn't that it was throw away, but it is most definatly there, at least partly, for clothes shredding reasons. Come on Negi's main magical ability makes people naked. At least things like all the gang rape stopped after the first few volumes, there is seriously tons of fanservice, even if it does have an action-type plot as well.
I like the second version (due to SHAFT) and OADs haven't watched the first, looks too dated for me to bother.
