Ah so they neutrize both mamumamu and rub rub? Dunno how the forehead works but it seems that they really neutered both ways since the Koreimu complained about not being able to make childrens both times, and the second time didn't have the inner thought of "i still have the other way.
Never had the occasion before Yumyumyum, but thanks for all those edits. Really, you are an edit-machinegun.
Also: this is the first time that someone give a yukkuri her prize after the castration. Well, usually mister castrates yukkuri with an axe or something like this, however...
Also guessing the "voice that can't take it easy" is koReimu's mother off panel.
They way I see it is that the Reimu saying that is a new one that's about to be castrated too, and the "voice that can't take it easy" is the Reimu that just got castrated screaming about how it cant make little ones anymore.
I think MaximusFive is right, the yukkuri is small enough to fit in the hand, and it do make sense to them all being koyukkuris, the best moment to make them unfertile, if they get bigger it becomes more troublesome and if they really won't listen to you, they may refresh without your constent, at least in this moment of their lives they won't go around trying to refresh and it's easier to neuterize them.
Makes sense, the younger the yukkuri the sooner it forgets what happened and the fewer problems down the line. Might even get lucky and it won't ever be interested in starting a family.
AIE You're missing the point of the scenario in the pic, it isn't about abusing them for the lulz, it's mainly neutarizing a pet for the sake to avoid newer off spring, so, the best moment to do it is when they are young, their sizes makes it easy to handle them and you need smaller tools for the job, reducing a great deal of the problems you would have trying to do the same with a basketball sized yukkuri.
Physically, sure. But if one has a yukkuri what was getting the idea of starting a family or had the idea for some time, it's going to react poorly. Even if it doesn't know what happened, there will be stress.
Its great as an emergency measure, but better to plan ahead.
Though I... probably can't imagine the pain of being castrated (Though for yukkuris, as they lack some... organs, I doubt that the pain is more physical than psychological), when I was about seven, I managed to forget the fact that my knee had just received three deep, permanent scars once someone gave me a milkshake.
Gah, and I still have the scars. Never trip and fall on anything painfully sharp, kids.
I think its the mother off screen screaming about her little ones not being able to make babies anymore. Then anon gave sweets to the first ko he neutered shut her up.
Yeah i agree with Daclusia, i think this second set of comics is meant to elaborate the process, maybe it's some sort of vet or something, kinda like the typical joke of going to the dentists and suddenly hearing screams and stuff when they are assuring you it won't hurt before meeting the Doctor.
