Always wondered if these yukkuris (and the ones in the other Back Alley Beating) were a local attraction. They sing and dance and do yukkuri things, people give them money and have a good time and the yukkuris take that money and "buy" things. They were street yukkuris sure, but they were well behaved ones. Kind of easy little Emperor Nortons. Then Anon comes in and wrecks the whole thing. Not cool, Anon.
And he actually had a reason to attack this lot (even if it wasn't for JUSTICE), which is more than most anons do.
I like how this artist portrays yukkuri; he give them a feeling of fragility. Plus they're so grotesque I don't actually feel any sympathy for them, despite their situation.
This isn't family friendly AIE, stop being so obsessed with family friendly stuff and your wish of breaking it, this was, since, page 1, an abuse comic.
Anyway, i'll be honest here, i clearly don't approve of anon, but i also think it was dumb from the yukkuris and from the humans to give them money, this very comic, is the reason why it's such a bad idea, so, this was meant to happen sooner or later, because, i doubt anybody would be willing to deal with yukkuris as clients, since they really don't know how to use money, only that it can get them things.
Anon is a douche but this was, like that book of south america has as title "An Announced End".
Now, about muramuraki style, i do like it, maybe not justice themed, but, i love the details he applies to every factor that affects yukkuris, even the possibility of blows pretty much being like if you are smacking around a big ball of dough and shaping itself based on the hits, which also leads to my hypthesis t hat the mother and remaining kid are pretty much doomed since their hits really ruined them for good, to the point that they can't eve use their mouths.
Three you're forgetting their limited count capacity and their tendency to argue with anything that doesn't please them. So it would be nothing more than continues arguments between yukkuris wanting their munch munch and sweets sweets now, while the store owner trying to explain them that they don't have enough money for what they want.
I rather, if i were to give them something, hand over food, specially if they are well behaved street yukkuris, money won't make them any good, they clearly don't know how to truly use it and may become unnecessarily bothersome while trying to apply their simplistic and misguided perception of money on the store clerks. And that without counting anons like this guy of the comic, or store clerks that may feel like taking the money and kicking them out, or plainly ripping them off, like taking all the hat content for 1 single small chocolate bar.
Not all authors have them that way JIE. They also do seem to show some understanding of how it works because the mother offers a very large bill to the anon to try to get him to stop. You are right about this being bound to happen. After all most criminals of this sort follow a simple principal the highest reward with the least amount risk. So a yukkuri that's alone with money is a major target.
It's not about authors, but the average understanding of yukkuris, the only time they were able to succesfully use money was on the second back alley beating story, usually yukkuris between clearly not understanding the true use of money, again "how could they if they can't count beyond 3?", and how easy targets they are, it's plainly a waste and retarded to have them use money. And we aren't given hints of that mother knowing the worth of money, only giving away 2 bills, that's it, and basing her reaction on Anon's, which, as you can say, follows up with a "OH SHIT!" face after seeing anon's face and the ko's ruining her bargaing.
So let's just say yukkuris, unless true gold or platinum, SHOULDN'T be given money, it only gives them more problems than soutions, and in a 99% problems 1% solutions proportions, if you really want to reward well behaved yukkuris, give them food, that clearly is way more useful, better and they actually know how to use it for obvious reasons.
AIE speak english, please, i just didn't understand anything from what you just wrote outside of something about yukkuris wanting money or something...
Yeah but this time it was like he didn't even bother to write it well in his own language and babelfish just made it worse, at least some of his previous lines had some level of understanding, though you would need to think them through and re-read them.
Giving money to beggar yukkuris is just a plain bad idea. First of all, they're super frail and super weak. Anybody can mug them with absolutely no consequence with a 100% success rate. Secondly, it's better to give them food because its not a guarantee a store will honor a yukkuri's money and might take everything and give them crumbs in exchange.
Food is currency for yukkuris. Monetary means of exchange is only beneficial if both parties have the standard to back up the money involved, which are just pieces of paper that are worth nothing in reality. A glorified barter system.
Yukkuris have nothing if someone decides to just take the money and give nothing in return. There are no real laws protecting yukkuris, and there's 100 million ways to silence them even if there are laws. Just give them a sandwich, it'll do them a lot more good.
JIE I was just saying that your underestimating these particular yukkuri not that it was a good idea to give them money. Also their is only one comic that implies that they can only count to three so that really isn't a common fannon fact only that they are bad using large numbers or remembering exact ones. They probably can count to nine just fine but anything in double digits would confuse them.
It's part of the fannon pal, long ago proved, and it has been done in many comics, remember why after "3" they say lots, because that's as far as it goes.
that makes no bloody sense. Yukkuri though clearly Magical creature make sense they have a way they work and so forth. There's no logical reason for them not to be able to count past three. and anyways where has it been proved? The only comic I know of is the one with the patchy.
deny all you want, but that's just kind of the general accepted view. There's no need for us to prove anything to you and there's no need for you to believe anything we say.
But it's kind of silly to say "there's no proof" when there's about 5-6 comics I can think of right off the top of my head about "yukkuris can't count". If you dig deeper to the older comics you'll find a slew of references, its just not very popular lately. A few I can name right off the top of my head are DOS (the artist)'s comics, the tragedy duck Reimu and one of the earlier aquarium guy comic.
It does makes sense coker, think about it, what would Yukkuris really use numbers for? they don't have the true need to have specific divitions or numerical symbols, only to get "enough" to satisfy themselves, to reach 3 is as far as they usually go without evolving into True Gold or Platinum levels of intelligence, because they just don't need further number, "lots" works for them, and if anything, 1, 2 and 3 are luxuries and residual effects of their magical language learning.
Yukkuris never find the need to count or care to, they are rarely shown counting and usually it goes 1,2,3......LOTS, it makes more sense for a wild and stray yukkuri to not learn the numbers and clearly not knowing shit about how money truly is used, than them knowing to use further numbers beyond 3 for no apparent reason.
Simplistic Beings will not waste "their simple brains" in stuff they don't use.
Old internet lingo for speaking using a crude translator, basically what you seem to be doing since day 1.
It is quite hard to understand because is, again, a crude translation that will never match one properly writing their comment using english knowledge.
My recommendation? Stop posting after you had taken some english classes and achieved a grasp of averagely good grammatical level while writing, you may enjoy the pics and all, but don't comment, when you learn proper english, you can then try commenting again, win-win situation.
I never said my english was perfect, but it's not an eyesore like AIE's, and to make matters worse AIE's is either breaking the rules or just making stupid comments based on his limited grasp of english.
I don't mind abuse on principle (I prefer justified abuse and especially ironic/fitting punishments.) but this really bugs me. I guess the idea that there's a very secular and greedy reason behind the suffering perpetuated here is what makes it hard for me to swallow.
Looking back on this comic still makes me fume with indignation. I'd hope that karma would bite that guy in the ass, but someone would actually have to draw a story based on that. Hmm....
