I'm a little disappointed in these things as well, but I can understand them.

1.  Coordinating all the artists in game to supply art etc for anniversary can be a nightmare, I imagine. The ones conspiciously absent are pretty high demand artists and this has happened past. I remember I was sad for the first game anniversary and the Kotetsu brothers' artist was too busy to submit art for them. I figure prior obligations (Hijikatagumi's artist doing manga for FGO, for example) just tripped up.

2.  God the sword selection for forging (and the fact our anniversary gift IS forging to a degree) makes me tired. I had 0 luck getting any of the Osafune forges and they're the only ones I'm missing. Kogarasumaru, Oodenta, and Sengo are understandable inclusions. Monoyoshi and Juzumaru over Kenshin and Azuki makes me a bit disappointed since you can acquire them at any time. BUT I know I'm an old player. Guess my log in seals are goin' to Bean Daddy, pray I get Koryuu, then ??? Kenshin. But if seals are going to be a system now... I think it makes it less daunting for newer players + unlucky people. But I DEFINITELY feel you here...

3.  I didn't expect a kiwame announcement for them since they like to hype those up. I feel like they're trying to let people restock and catch up with kiwame sets. I've been diligent about getting mine, have 10 spares iirc, and I don't think that's common among most players. So five new kiwame after several waves with popular swords? I'd expect them maybe in a month or so (maybe for Pocket's anniversary) after another VoT or UTC.

Overall with change in devs etc, I think they're doing pretty admirably to consider feedback, and they'll likely learn from this as well.
