Dear Benjamin
Logically speaking, asking a new artist to come in for the remaining 6-7ish chapter is not feasible IMO. Unless the new artist is going to completely change the whole image of every characters, which again will change the mood greatly because it'll be like reading a whole new manga, it makes no difference since the OG artist already did 95% and there's only 5% left for the new artist to claim. Because Dear Ben also has season 3 of when Felix's grandfather comes around and all that drama, the new artist can make season 3 their style to truly claimed the work for themselves and be recognised as well. Also, it would make sense for the readers because obviously a little time skip can change the character's looks since everyone's is happy now after all the drama (slight spolier here). Whether the artist rn is fired or not makes no difference since she has already done 95% of the work and people already know she did all of it. Letting her finished the remaining 5 then cutting her off from the season 3 would be the most logical sense to me. The new author probably won't be recognise much for the remaining chapters that they will be picking up.
