Agreed. While we can't pinpoint every chapter or part in the manga that had been rushed, there have been times when it occurred. The only confirmed instance anyone can confirm for 100% certainty was when Kubo cut out Ashido Kano and the Forest of Menos sub-arc.

Aside from that, it's very hard to believe that Kubo wasn't forced to rush through some of the other things that happened in the manga, especially if it felt off in some way or another.
