Ah, I misunderstood your main point then. :( I also dislike "just because"-types of answers. Have you thought about writing a blog with an analytic prompt? You could probably start some really good discussions here. One of my favorite things to talk about is Kubo's character designs. Many of the characters have a 'theme', such as Tosen.

I found a really good analysis of his character that's definitely worth a read. It goes into a lot of detail on the Buddhist symbolism in his design and attack names, a lot of which I never realized was there. :)
