They think they are better than everyone else. They are rude and greedy and selfish. Some of them are nice but trying to sort out the few good ones from all the little bastard ones is too much.
^ ... except that goes completely against a yukkuri-meiling's nature. They sleep, then guard. And all they can say is "Jaooo~n!" And Chens dont take it easy. Chens just get it.
this is like someone having a wild Komachi-type woke up and going on a village-wide massacre or something, complete with a tiny, yukkuri-sized scythe. It just doesn't make much sense.
also >Because talking vermin are still vermin, and should be exterminated with extreme prejudice.
They're vermin to the extent of a dog or cat is a vermin. and even if you think they're vermin, it still doesn't really justify going out of your way to torture it before you kill it. I mean, c'mon... the things beg for mercy when you hurt them. And even if you hate them, they're edible. T_T
>They're vermin to the extent of a dog or cat is a vermin
Last I checked, dogs and cats don't breed as fast as yukkuris do, don't claim and eat entire fields of crops as yukkuris do, and are not as highly destructive as yukkuris are.
The locust comparison I made earlier fits yukkuris well.
>and even if you think they're vermin, it still doesn't really justify going out of your way to torture it before you kill it.
In addition to being highly destructive, yukkuris also exhibit a great wrongness. As creatures, they are something that should not be. They're something that should be expunged.
But you don't really need that; the fact that they're as annoying and destructive as they are justifies torturing them on its own.
>I mean, c'mon... the things beg for mercy when you hurt them. And even if you hate them, they're edible.
The fear and despair the begging for mercy represent make yukkuris taste sweeter.
