^ That's what I thought the at first too. But then again, the Yukkuris didn't arise as a result of evolution... they're more like constructs created by a sufficiently advanced alien with a weird sense of humour, and they do seem to have genetic memory, so who knows, perhaps the right treatment will unlock new features. Or something.
>>perhaps the right treatment will unlock new features. Or something. Like Aquatic Marisas, Flying Reimus, Yukkuri-Chen hybrids, Yurrikus and Multi-Peni Alices?
I kind of feel like this particular type of torture could use a tag.
or maybe it's just several themes coming together and I'm hoping there's more like it. What really grabs me in this one is how they're in a constant struggle against something so strong as their own biology.
Just the way they're struggling with little actual hope of survival.
Ah, one of the thinking threads that led up to the "desperate_struggle" tag.
And what's wrong with "mental_torture"? It's longer, but more intuitive. also your suggestion kind of makes me think you might see the added vulgarity as a plus.
I came here to move a discussion from post #18666 About how exactly this Reimu died.
Mostly a chicken or egg thing. Did it die from being too full for too long, which caused the anko to release as the dead body relaxed? Or did it die from a lethal loss of filling which exploded out when it lost control?
I say the former, Tea says the latter. After another look, I'm more certain it's from the pressure of being too full. It's eyes roll back and everything before any "poo" leaks out.
The eyes roll back before because it mentally can't take any more and try to hold it in. It breaks, and then the poo-poo leaks out. Still, either way can work. Doesn't matter that much.
Can't justify this experiment on costing grounds myself. After all it IS designed to fail from the start. If I was the factory Manager I'd fire the Anon here for wasting company time and importantly money on this useless venture. He may 'get his jollies', but I have to 'be with the sorrys' to the company shareholders. After all eat=excrete.
Oh CSI time. The experiment isn't not designed to fail. Only koyukkuri is designed to die.Their death will improve experiment success change. In marisa case experiment is stagnant.So anon got to involve in the procedure.
You can look at the experiment's goals in 2 ways. Either "produce yukkuris that will clean up their poop no matter how much they eat" or "scare them so much that they will somehow produce children that won't poop". The first seems more likely.
I prefer the second option myself, because it opens up a way to explain how the various modified breed yukkuris are made, and also gives me some rather interesting ideas... :p
But this wasn't designed to fail from the start, and was probably the seeding ground for all of the ideas about GMO yukkuris that have come by. This is an excellent venture, which results in torment for the yukkuris, a tasty new product (post #10082 and possibilities for more GMO yukkuri, like the constant crying ones) and jollies for everyone (due to the yu-torture. I can imagine the process being filmed, edited for the best bits and then sold off to abuse enthusiasts).
Anything is justifiable to the factory if it involves making yukkuris suffer, anyway. It's not so much an actual company concerned with profits rather than a huge organisation dedicated to making yukkuris suffer. The fact that that factory is continously involved with lots of these "useless ventures" means it's all good. You can't say it's not viable due to costs, as yukkuris are dirt cheap (also the factory, you know, BREEDS yukkuri?) and the food they're given is shit quality. I guess the actual reason is because it's abuse.
Experient 's goal is only "scare them so much that they will somehow produce children that won't poop".It is say so from the begining It 's like a soccer.you need to kick the ball in order to get a goal.People usually think soccer is about kicking a ball.but soccer's objective is a goal. "produce yukkuris that will clean up their poop no matter how much they eat" is a ball. Factory need to kick and kick a ball many time to achieve a goal
Precisely... it says "to create yukkuris who will not poo-poo" and that any that do so are killed. Getting yukkuris to try and hide plus hold in their shit sounds like a reasonable stepping stone to that (although it's more of reaction by the yukkuris in a desperate bid to survive, to try and fool the workers).
Yeah, It clarified in the text walls that all of the koyukkuri seen in these comics are "unsuccessful units." They're probably being watched at all times, but They act like they only check during feeding to give the mother false hope. Eventually the oniisans intervene and ensure death.
I also theorize that the reason the komarisas in the other story were taped inside the mother's mouth was to force-feed their paste because there was progress made in the minds of the koyukkuri.
Poo-poo > Mom tears up the hat > Never be able to take it easy again.
Any indicators that ammo subscribes to the paste transfer = memory transfer thing?
They still want to teach Marisa that if Marisa give birth to child who poopoo then Marisa can't take it easy.So mister directly make Marisa can't take it easy by use kid who poopoo.Because only killing koyukkuri didn't make Marisa can't take it easy anymore.
Ignoring the whole beanpaste bullshit, it is an animal because it is an intelligent creature of some variety. Its a new genus or whatever of animal. It seems to be more intelligent than one anyways.
Also this is still an excuse to have an yukkuri eating scat.
My comment was more to do with "you can't teach an animal not to poop". Yukkuris aren't normal animals. What is impossible for normal animals isn't so impossible for yukkuris as they're impossible creatures. And yes, this probably is an excuse to make them eat shit in order to make them suffer.
I know it's old but i kinda lol'd at the "Beanpaste Bullshit" comment, specially since it's a fact that they are magical talking pastries that seems to change and evolve magically, so, while i may to agree with the method, training yukkuris to mentally impose the not shitting may work in the same way than it had been theorized how a great deal of the yukkuris functions works, through the act of "believe and it happens", specially considering how unlogical, anti-natural and anti viable system they are.
Hmmm, that may also explain their arrogant view of the world and delusion that by demmanding things to do what they believe they should, they'll achieve the desired result, instead of realizing their "believe and it works" is limited to their bodies, all the "drop dead easy" and superiority to humans delusion do make a lot of sense if you consider they actually believe the world work like their bodies through that belief -> reality system.
