The way tsuwabuki ends up physically damaged and exhausted by serving nanami is a form of acknowledgement of how trying to become a prince damages the person in question because they are trying to reach an impossible standard. It's the same as when prince dios tried to save every girl from the world and anthy had to stop him because he was going to die if he continued. But, at the same time, the ones who try to be princes are taking the agency of others when deciding how and from what they have to be saved and tsuwabuki is one of the most obvious cases because he literally creates situations where nanami is in danger to rescue her.

So I think the series shows both the aspect of princehood that is more recognized by society (chivalry, nobility, selflessness) and the actual dark consequences and implications of that (taking the agency of others, damaging yourself in the process and the need of others to being in danger to fulfil your role/feel complete). The fact that there are people, or to be more exact princesses, who need being helped and saved constantly implies that the princesses are oppressed and, instead of change this, princes put a band aid to the problem. I think this relates to what @os-eclipses-tamen-son-yuri wrote about when boys become misogynistic men. When the boys grow up and accept the role of princes, they end up upholding the misogynistic system that creates gender oppression, even if that's not their intention because that's the real purpose of that role.

The way I see it is that RGU goes beyond critiquing the idea of toxic masculinity and implies that the problem is the binary masculine/feminine itself and the roles it puts on people.
