Incidentally, the same logic can be applied there. Ignoring whether the loss of freedom is a big thing for the girls or not (believe it or not, for most of human history freedom was not a right but a rare privilege), the MC is not the one responsible for their situation, but the one that pulled them out of horrible situation and did everything he could to make it decent for them.
Btw. everyone seems to be applying modern logic to the girls, but depending on emancipation of the society they might have MORE freedom to pursue whatever field they want to now than they used to in human society.

I don't it
should make easier for audience, at least not to part of audience think this situation through. Rou might not kidnapp them, but he
keep them being kidnapped, which makes him complicit to degree.
Second thing is that it no make sense to apply medieval standard on Re:Monster world. One of girls is alchemist and other blacksmith which are both very top of their respective social classes. Neither would be possible without fair share emancipation (and in former case also high level of education) in this world and let's be honest before long we will definitely encounter one or two female knights/adventurers and get beach episode where all girls gonna wear modern two piece swimsuit.
