See it like this, If you were rooting for a good end, that not being fulfilled will lead to your rooting not being wasted in this clearly stupid and scummy yu's. After all, going "hur dur I should be the leader because the present leader said somethign stupid" when the leader actually gives helpful advices and rules, is a pretty scum yu thing.

Ya, but the ending I hoped for was that they would suffer due to lack of food, but still survive whilst "learning their lesson".

Yeah kinda hard for that to happen, once they stop having food, they are pretty much doomed, only way to survive would be to cannibalize each other, and, unless it's a product of "Please eat up", Yu's who kill their own family to eat it don't really deserve to survive winter or be redeemed.

Well, it's possible to survive for some time without food.
That was I wanted to happen, also, the parents would give some of their food to the children, seeing as they can survive longer without food.

I'm a sucker for emotional stories....
Winter is 4 months, It's usually agreed that a yukkuri can't live without food for 2 weeks at least, unless they ran out of food at the very end of winter, everything is against them. And that without incluiding how Ko's can't live without food beyond a week in the best example, and that without incluiding any form of cannibalismn.
And you are missing the point of the story if you wanted an emotional Yu Story out of this, the dialogue clearly is meant for a typical aesop storie through them being arrogant and paying for that.

Dude, they have food to last 4 months for the parents.
I was suggesting that it would cut short at 2-3 weeks left and that the parents would be food-less until the spring.
And yes, I'm aware of the last thing, because I said that it was never going to happen.

Usually the "ammount" that yukkuris get for winter barely is enough for 1 or 2 adults, adding a Ko is a serious strain, but of course the problem here isn't the ammount of food, but the attitude and discipline to ration it properly, and we know this fellas here don't have that.
Which is Sad, since, while the parent's may deserve it, the lil ko was fine, of the whole family she maybe the only one who may deserve to survive, but she has everything against her in this scenario.
platina said: Also dooming them: The previous panel implied that Little Reimu isn't going to remain an only child for long.
Indeed, I forgot about that, but since the other Ko's aren't born yet, it's hard to tell if they'll deserve sympathy or not, like the first koreimu did.
I know this may be bumping, but how come yukkuri never dig underground for worms during the winter season.
"When little ones are this cute--it's so uneasy of [the leader] to say [we] mustn't have little ones until springtime!"
"Honestly, ze! It's so worrisome having an incompetent leader, ze! Marisa should become the leader, ze!"[Little Reimu is still happy.]
