I think this series will be mediocre.I saw the trailer already but it's not interesting at all. Thought it would be a normal samurai series.

I expect it'll be the typical add a famous well known name to our original series, make him write up the initial concept of the series and then have him do minimal actual work on said series. This things happen all the time and are a dime a dozen and usually go completely forgotten. If that comes off as pessimistic sorry but it's truth.
Usually id say that too but this time he's credited for both series composition and script so it looks like he'll be more involved than he usually is in the last few years.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

Looks basic as hell, ugly character designs... But he's good at making things look basic while actually being far from it, so I'll try an episode and see.
Quality Queen.

Love the side characters' design, no moe big eyes standard boring girls for incels or anything, which is good.
The trailers make it seems boring though.
Might give it a try, Gen Urobuchi tends to be hit than miss, so it should have some potential
DILF characters need more appreciation
Hot boys which are not Bishies also welcome

You could at least try to research a bit before posting your blind assumptions. He's fully involved this time and was hyping it up on Twitter and staff comments as something he wanted to write for a while. It's actually the first TV anime project that he both penned and wrote since Psycho-Pass.

I am getting Fate/Zero vibes from watching this series. It feels so amazing! Shame that it only have 12 episodes! We need more samurai works!

Is that any different from what George R.R. Martin did with Elden Ring?

Irony is that his writing style is VERY REALISTIC

YOU CAN SEE THOSE HISTORICALLY ACCURATE SAMURAIS USING GUNS
I mean, this show doesn't exactly scream "realism". No samurai would have that hairstyle, and all the character's fighting styles, although cool, are extremely unrealistic. That without even mentioning the typical Japanese portrayal of the Church with low to no contact with reality. I love Urobuchi Gen, but have to disagree.

Halfway into this series, I can agree that Urobuchi is falling apart as an writer every year

I don't know what happened to him but I have fear for the new Madoka Movie

It's somewhat entertaining. It's no masterpiece, but I'll honestly prefer this over Bubble (another product from Urobuchi) any time.

Give the man a break. He has been writing professionally for around 25 years, do you really expect him to always give the most thought-provoking works to ungrateful anime fans. This is probably one of the reasons why he spends most of his time writing on Thunderbolt Fantasy. He is clearly just having fun making it.

Not everything he writes has to be comparible in quality to Fate/Zero, Psycho-Pass, or Madoka. In Revengers case, I don't think the problem is necessarily the writing, but more the production. The studio working on Revengers is no ufotable, Production I.G. or SHAFT after all.

I am not trying to argue here. You seem to be a fan of him, so maybe just let him have fun writing what he wants? Or maybe, you just made a knee-jerk post without thinking too much (we have aĺl been there). If so, ignore my post.

the new Madoka movie was actually written way back in 2014-2015 according to him, it was SHAFT who decided to....not do it back then for whatever reason and sit on the script for almost a decade
