That said, I'm also one of those who thinks the Hokkaido arc wasn't really needed, in a sense. Jinchu was a proper ending to Himura's story that allowed him some degree of closure to one of the last remaining threads tying him to his past life.

I don't disagree with that. But Hokkaido is fine for what it is - it doesn't undercut the manga ending like Trust & Betrayal do. If Hokkaido being part of the deal is what gets Jinchu animated I'm certainly fine with that.
