Humans Are The Real Monsters is supposed to be about how humans are worse compared to other sentient species. Sarah is the only member of this species, so there isn’t much to compare to, and most named characters show sympathy for her plight, so it’s not like the show is trying to say humans are inherently evil.

Being distressed because your friend is in danger isn’t Reality Ensues as much as it is People Sit On Chairs. Similarly, a character that interacts with a different world not being able to explain his problems to those who don’t know anything about this world is what’s normal in those stories. And that hardly matters here anyway, because Riku still has his friends to talk to.
