Dunno, next season looks pretty terrible. Seems like it will be a real backlog season.
But hey, maybe Vividred Operation won't be as painfully generic and borderline retarded as it looks? If it turns out to be something more like Simoun and less like Strike Witches, that would be awfully nice ... and absolutely nothing like Symphogear. I still can't believe they're making a second season to that.

Princess Tutu may be the single girliest thing I've ever seen and I love it. In a way I'm just glad that there is a place for ballet-centric magical girl shows with a creepy metafictional subplot.

Princess Tutu may actually have been made more for the otaku fans of magical girl anime. One indication is that the manga adaptation was serialised in Champion Red, which is a male oriented magazine. The show might be better for it though, since magical girl anime aimed at girls are long monster of week fare transparently advertising crap toys.

What would make you think Shaft "wrap" things in moe as a trick?

Because you're not allowed to make anime unless you pander to quasipedophiles. There are very few anime I like, and they are all devoid of fanservice and moeshit, bar a few moments of exception. FLCL has fanservice but it's so tongue-in-cheek it's hard to mind.

But it's a mistake to think that because you don't like something then the creators are being forced by commercial pressure to do it. It shouldn't be hard to believe there are creators who have found commercial success who actually like the style they use. In the case of Shaft and Madoka, it's pretty clear that they like Ume Aoki and her style.

Super Robot Wars, the best srpg series

the secret is that its actually a mediocre srpg but since there are licensed giant robots in it  it is still super enjoyable

Gunleon is more of an homage to GaoGaiGar, but yes his final super attack has that OBVIOUS EVANGELION REFERENCE yes

it still manages to be its own robot and its one of the coolest around

Not style, substance. Madoka is a critique of the mahou shoujo genre, because that's what gets funded and what gets sales. It's not like Shaft couldn't come up with a story about literally anything else, it's just the way Anime works that the majority of customers are only interested in girls and slice of life and cute shit and not... storytelling.

You are right in that I am turned off from the moe style (and I didn't particularly like Madoka's stylistic direction aside from the Witch's Mazes) But my complaint about the industry is a substantive one. I'm tired of the same stories over and over and over. I crave creativity in my stories! It'd be like if only one genre of game was ever getting produced. Minecraft clones. Forever. Because taking a risk with anything else would be suicide unless you had the funding yourself. That is not conducive to gaming as a whole, just as contemporary anime being mainly moeshit and sliceoflife isn't conducive to anime as whole.
