--- Notes ---

"Kubo and the Two Strings Is A SEQUEL!? - Gaijin Goombah" and "White Washing in Kubo and the Two Strings!? - Reactionary vs Subtlety" by Gaijin Goombah on Youtube ---- While we don't agree with all the opinions presented in these videos, they do an excellent job demonstrating the cultural specificity present in Kubo's narrative.
"'Kubo and the Two Strings' Director Travis Knight on Akira Kurosawa's Influence and Studio Ghibli's Legacy" by Jordan Raup ---- Here's a decent interview we found in which Travis Knight discusses some of their process in creating Kubo's story.
