Well, if i recall correctly, construction was one of the main and most lucrative industries in japan during their economical bubble time, so i wouldn't be surprised if they were as good at preparing construction grounds as this pic.
Well it could be worse, the yukkuris themselves could had ruined their easy place, making it barren and devoid healthy plant life, bugs and similar small creatures, and not having no one to blame about it but themselves, even if they wouldn't admit it.
This scenario at least has "someone" to blame and at least it leads to a productive outcome in some way, after all, people don't just build stuff just to spite on some silly manjuus, too wasteful and stupid.
Sad, but not as Sad as yukkuris themselves ruining it and their little ones suffering because of it and all their efforts would be for naught.
That sounds really really really unbelievable. If it does happen somehow, it's true they'll never understand and will probably blame mister whatevers though. Of course, given their limited understanding of the world, they cant help but practice animism. But that aside, ruining their easy place sounds more like what mister humans are doing to mister Earth. And those humans at fault will never admit their faults either. Damn my childhood playground.:(
1) Yukkuris ARE capable of that, many stories already showed this, i'm not being a douche trying to demonize them or anything, i mentioned that because it's part of the fanon, it's part of their present devolution and negative effect out of their present ways.
2) Humans CAN fix their problems and are willing to, aside of admiting their faults, those are some of the key differences with yukkuris, aside of the fact that the proportion of yukkuris that will proactively ruin the enviroment are greater than the propotion of the humans doing so if we had the same proportions of good people and bad people than yukkuris, believe me, the world would be worse, darn worse, and the enviroment may had been ruined badly time ago.
I didn't call you a douche trying to demonize yukkuris. Even with the greatest shitheads, I couldn't believe those blobs that gets eaten or win Darwin prizes every day could possibly do that to their easy places. Well, anyways, forgive my prejudice on "those humans" that proactively ruin the enviornment. I never got an apology for my childhood playground that got cemented even though the entire neighborhood protested against it. And did they compensate us for the loss of fruits, wild animals, picnic routes and precious herbs? Nope, they cleared the whole settlement next. (I wasn't there to see that one.) They never admit their faults and won't ever be willing to remove the cement and steel to restore the trees and animals.
Ugh, I dont wanna start a debate about deforestation. But man, if what you said about yukkuris ruining their places is true, I'm amused like hell. Is that on OYP?
I wasn't saying you called me that, just trying to make things clear, since sometimes people mistake my comments based on the fanon and stories as me demonizing the manjuus or "being too hard" on them, while, again, i'm only basing my statements in the closest thing we have for a canon.
And about yukkuris ruining their enviroments it's true, very true, more notorious on fanfics, even from japan, it's basically a mixture of their capacity of breeding like cokroaches, their humongous appetites, their omnivorous nature, and, unless it's for winter, their unwillingness for self limitation. Many times they ruin their "easy places" and claim it become "uneasy" blame the plants, bugs, etc. for not keeping up with their appetites and then they would move to other "easy places". It's one of the most disastrous aspects of the bad majority of yukkuris, their potential to ruin enviroment.
Anyway, i was talking about humanity in general, for each human that cuts down a tree there are 2 or 3 planting more trees, for each human littering there are 2 or 3 cleaing up and such, i wasn't talking about the people that ruined your playground, nobody said there aren't douches that do that.
Of course i'll give you the benefit of the doubt about that incident with your playground,since i clearly don't know of your situation and only have your word about it, But not always an expansion is a bad thing, not necessarily in your case but in general, it all depends in the situation, the place, what it truly contains, etc. After all, it's not the same taking down a whole forest and all it's inhabitants for some silly human project than a small park of green, plants, etc.
Maybe I'm being too paranoid against rich men and expansion projects. I was talking about "those humans" from the first comment. Even though I know not all expansions are bad (well, common sense) I feel bad about it.
Hoo man, I should be more positive and think about more immediate stuff I guess. Oh and sorry I made a mess for my personal feelings. I'm sorta embarassed I said all that./////
I think i'll do a better explanation about what i originally meant before making this a long ass discussion.
It's beyond doubt the fanon capacity of yukkuris to ruin the enviroment, being used in many stories, etc.
Now, what i originally said was: "Well it could be worse, the yukkuris themselves could had ruined their easy place, making it barren and devoid healthy plant life, bugs and similar small creatures, and not having no one to blame about it but themselves, even if they wouldn't admit it. "
We know that someone ruining our home is an epic bitch, but we also know that it's a worse case when we ruin our home ourselves without realizing it until it's late, on that scenario we don't have anybody to blame but ourselves, no "selfish exterior force to pin the blame" but our own stupidity, selfishness, etc.
That's why i considered that it would had been worse, if the yukkuri themselves ruined the place through over eating the whole place to the point of surpassing it's capacity of replenishing plants, bugs, etc.
It's mainly a typical "it could had been worse" phrase, not really about deforestation being necessarily aok and stuff. But a simple comment in how, regardless if they have good reasons to expand or not, yukkuris can blame humans for this one, instead of ruining it themselves and not having anybody to blame outside of delusional and arrogant blame pinning.
