some may progress, and some may...

what the other 'some' may I darenot say, 'cause I'm in no position to critisize them, eh?
Manglobe Inc. is just a nice example of that the ways of the Lord are inscrutable
how I met the name of the company was that I was watching the OPEDs by Marble and there was another cute vid created for the 'Mashiro-iro Symphony'. I saw the logo of the company and I wondered why I didn't recognize it. methought, like 'this should be a company which constantly creates things like that Mashiro, aiming to please the young girls, 'tis why I am not aware of it...' and I was so deeply wrong. they used to be the great company who created 'Samourai Champloo' and 'Ergo Proxy'! they also made the 'Michiko to Hatchin' thing which I haven't seen but which is so promising... yet which is the last thing presenting any interest for a thorough anime-researcher like your humble servant, author of these lines.
what we have the honour of seing next are some 'bloody shonen' and romantic slices of life. that is how those guys ended up.
if only I were not an atheist I would pray to God so that he would save the souls of those guys from the eternal damnation which my oaths send them to. 'cause your humble servant is just so angry with the fact that there's once more no company who wouldn't yield to the time passing and start creating the mass-production to keep on the wave. all good thing have that terrible habit to come to an end, eh? your humble servant has the only option to be disappointed with the fact, having no examples of the opposite trends, doesn't he? whatever your brilliant selves, my honourable readers, may utter, me cannot believe there're many examples of the latest animes able to compare with those of the golden age and those of the early 2000s, except for those which were created by the directors coming from that age. me only dares to ask, what we shall do when all those great people die, for that is quite inevitable. me doesn't want to bid farewell to Miyazaki-sama, for example. Satoshi has already passed away, let his soul be blissed. for the moment me can recall the names of Sakurai Hiroaki and Junichi Sato as they created good things recently, there are a few other good people on the Earth, but they just won't last forever. who will come to substitute them? methinks, we're facing a terrible thing, my dear guests. for now me can't imagine any other way that to delve into the 80s, 90s, the beginning of the new century - and enjoy, for there'll no more be those great examples of masterpieces which move us so deeply

and 'Seiken no Blacksmith' goes to the rows of Manglobe's masterpieces also, marking the last success of theirs, obviously. I wonder if 'Karneval' would be able to bring them back?
