Once upon a time, Gen Urobuchi's name was synonymous with a certain quality of anime. He penned series like Madoka Magica and Psycho-Pass to great acclaim. In the following years, fan expectations for his projects became diluted and his name was no longer synonymous with mature, pathos-driven, subversions. What happened?

The discussion has evolved somewhat, but at the time, he was very much preceded by his "Butcher" nickname.
As I recall, Gaim is the series about battling gangs of fruit-themed street dancers, right?
Most damning, though? If you go and search, the series only fills up a partial page of pixiv results!
As you said, it's not amazing by the standards of his more storied work, but there are clearly like, ideas and concepts he's playing with beyond just slapping his name on the scenario and including an eldritch girlfriend or someone becoming a god.
