True, and that's a good point.
However, one of those quotes Kazu-kun listed is encouraging to me.
"During discussions that were centered around the 4 people here we came up with a certain idea, and I finally got the feeling that I am able to create a new work. Where as in the TV series, as the screenplay came first,
my world view was at the center, in the new work it will
be something that can be said to showcase the true value of "Magica Quartet". " - Gen Urobuchi (I assume that the "U" Kazu-kun used there stood for Urobuchi), emphasis mine
What I take from that is Gen is conceding a bit to the other major players on Madoka Magica (including Shinbo) going forward, and that this will probably result in an overall less dark work. Probably not to any huge extent - I still expect it to be
intense, action-packed, all that good stuff - but I wouldn't be surprised if it's a bit more upbeat in overall tone compared to the anime.

A huge reason why the show was successful in Japan was that it gave a strong hopeful message at a time when the population needed it most.

I agree. Well said.
