Saya No Uta is my absolute favorite and a classic with Gen Urobuchi as one of the greatest Japanese Writers of our time, as is the rest of their lineup with Tokyo Necro and some of their side projects with School Live and the recently released Revenger, they are a rarity and a contrast from the rest of the industry with their unique brand.

I was worried about the acquisition and that Nitro+ would need to water themselves down which I would very much dislike. but seeing that this is more of needing resources to help expand overseas and the management stays the same. I see no problem with it as it is kind of a Nihon Falcom situation where they have a small studio but can only work on one project a year or two if they are lucky, so they have to be nimble or be acquired to have better resources. Nitro+ fell into the latter as it is a tough market right now with the economy. I can only hope everything stays as it is, and we get more Nitro+ titles in the future with much more creative freedom and not be forced to do generic works.
