I don't really see that. It isn't moe so that's a plus from my perspective.

If he is truely serious about this then he will have earned my respect at least.
Although his output has been the opposite of that (to be fair he didn't work on the majority of Lucky Star which pandered like hell), it takes someone to realise there is a problem before something can be done about it.
