Personally, I don't view a need of supplementary material as something positive. It means you have to switch to another medium in order to get a full grasp of a story (I'm not referring to TG novels, it's my take on eventual 'fill-in material' for :re specifically). It's not a good thing in my opinion. But I guess in the end, this sort of thing comes with personal preferences.

To be honest, I hoped that a timeskip after Auction arc will be the last one. I am quite dissapointed that Ishida made another one. Don't get me wrong. I've got nothing against timeskips, but just like Ahendra said, if it's done frequently, it leaves a bad taste. It's entirely possible to progress a plot without resorting to them. You could argue that Ishida is using timeskips to move to important plot points, but I don't feel like it's necessary. It just leaves you hanging and kind of ruins a flow of the story. Of course, it can be very well executed, but so far in Tokyo Ghoul :re, it isn't very impressive. I'd rather have no timeskips at all than timeskips + 'supplementary material' or flashbacks later in the story. Recently I've been feeling like Ishida is trying to rush through some things and frankly, it worries me more than it should.
