>These projects aren’t the product of a single individual’s will. You only understand them clearly in hindsight, what worked, what didn’t, but it’s not my place to judge. It’s fundamentally someone else’s work. If I try to get involved, it inevitably leads to interpersonal friction. Even though I’m credited as the original creator, I’ve consistently emphasized that Gundam didn’t come into existence by my efforts alone. It wasn’t just the names like yours or Okawara who helped me; it was everything happening around us at the time that allowed Gundam to be born.
We've heard this before, though less grudgingly this time.
