I highly, and I mean like, REALLY sympathize with Urobuchi for various reasons, but one of them really makes him stand out in my book.

I've met a bunch of "writers" in my life, and to put it bluntly, 90% of them were horribly awful and pretentious pricks, who thought they were masters of literature and writing just because they spent their whole lives reading old stories. Nothing wrong with the classics, except those guys are the same people who are totally out of touch with the meaning of "entertainment", so everything they write is boring crap filled with unnecessarily convoluted story-lines and boring writing.

What made him a exception for me was the fact that he once stated that "had no real interested in literature, just wanted to write stories with guns and big tits". Dude, that is freaking great. It's thanks to this that we could have awesome scenes like the 400-long massacre in Django, or a mahou shoujo gunning down her enemies with a motherfucking M249. It's the kind of thing that makes the aforementioned writers bleed through their eye-sockets, but to me, it's the kind of writing that should be around more often. Here's hoping we get more Urobuchi from now on.
