I have to imagine anything that isn't "you'd do the same if you were rich from prior successes and they weren't pressuring you to go write more!" is going to ring very hollow.
Yeah, not surprised at all based on vague memories and just how dense something like Watchman was (even though that REALLY can't be taken as indicative of the medium on a whole.) Well, art's subjective, and technically so is writing but I think only like 3 people really want to defend Kubo's writing. Nevermind that continuity flubs are a lot easier to forgive for a series running decades with constantly switching authors versus one that's only just run a decade from a single author. And likely without too much important to remember.
