Can't wait to see what happens next. This anon has a pretty cool skill, heh. Hopefully he'll put them to good use and become a Yukkuri breeder so the rest of us can have fun!
^^ I'd rather he not release a pox on the world by allowing them to breed.
Perhaps if he massage their brain and let them sleep a night they'll forget everything and won't die of stress. Heh the man punishes them to relief his stress worries about their stress level.
To elaborate on my first point, as I feel that it's probably misunderstood, is that in the context of this comic, there are only two "real" Yukkuris (although that number is probably set to increase, hopefully!)- the ones knocked out of the monitor. Therefore, if anon can do controlled breeding of them, not only would the population problem of the shits breeding fast as fuck be solved, but it would create a viable new goods item after a while. For example, they can be sold to industry, who can use them for waste disposal as they can turn virtually anything into bean paste. These ones too, could be bred by the company to create plentiful replacements for the ones that die.
If they're also locked up and kept unable to escape (like in battery cages), there wouldn't be many feral ones to create havoc. Of course, a few would probably escape and then create entire colonies, but seeing as there's already professional pest control who deal with things like feral cats, ones specialising in Yukkuri would eventually pop up.
Am I taking this too seriously? Yes. But it's entertaining to think about.
2. Narration: "Even after they'd finally gotten to see their parents like they wanted, they're still friggin' moping around!" "There's no point bullying them like this, is there..." Reimu: "Mwunch-mwun-...: sfx: *CHOMP* Reimu: "!!" Marisa: "Yuyu-!?" sfx: *TWITCH!*
3. Narr.: "And it'd be a pain if they got killed by stress... What to do..." sfx: "Hmmmm..." Reimu: "Yuah-!! SHPICHYYYY!!" Marisa: "Reimyu...!!"
4. Narr.: "Hm? Don't tell me Reimyu's in trouble again..." Reimu: "Thish hash poijon in ich!!" "Yugehh! Yugeh-!" Marisa: "Yuwaaah!!" label: "Chocolate-covered kaki-no-tane"*
kaki-no-tane are spicy mochi chips baked into a persimmon shape
5. Reimu: "NO MOOOOOTE!! WANNA GO HWOOOOOME!!"
6. Reimu: "Yu~n! ♥ Easy! They're really easy!" Marisa: "Yuyuu~!! These ones are much cuter than the ones we had before!" KoMarisa (upper): "Ich chicklesh, -je!" KoReimu (upper): "Wub-wub! ♥" KoMarisa (lower): "Waich up -je!" KoReimu (lower): "Yuu-! ♪"
7. Narr.: "Hmm... 'Home', eh... Ah, this ought to do!" Mister (outside balloons): "Damn, those 'da-ze'ing Marisas are annoying..." Ko's: "YUWAAAAH!! PWOPPA!?"
@Toawa: They are spicy, but to the best of my knowledge, they don't use real ones for the chocolate-covered ones because mochi is cheaper to mass-produce.
