.....I would have thought a gold-badge patchouli would be worth more, simply because patchys aren't quite as prolific as Reimus....
Although.....I suppose it could be that a gold-badge level Reimu is rarer then a gold-badge level patchy, due to the Reimu types massive tendency towards 'deibuism'...
Don't be mistaken, it's not a Reimu thing, it's an archetypical yukkuri type of tendency.
You may find as many deibus as you'll find Bawizas, Badchoulis and Raper Alices, hell, they even hang out togheter, but, Deibus are funnier and easier to use for the role of "shithead that should be punished".
And i think the Patchouli should be more expensive out of being more intelligent and if it's Gold Badge it may be able to read and all.
Dunno in my opinion a manipulative delusional douchebag is many times worse than a delusional douchebag.
And the Badchoulis, aka "The Sage of -place here-", are manipulative, they tend to sometimes interchange the "Leader" position with the Bawizas thanks to their greater intelligence, at least in yukkuri standars.
Either way, shitheads are shitheads, they aren't better or worse based on types, in the end, they must be abused and killed equally, all for the sake of the good yukkuris and the psyche of the inhabitants of the yukkuri world.
@JIE I think you may have slightly missed what I was trying to imply.
What I was trying to say is that a gold badge Reimu 'may' be worth more then a gold badge patchouli because theres a far greater ratio of 'deibu's to Gold Reimus then there is of 'Badchouli's to Gold Patchouili's.
For instance: For every 1 Gold Reimu, there's 1000 'Deibu's For every 1 Gold Patchy, there's only 100 'Badchouli's
so in essence, its 'harder' and more costly for company's to make 'Gold Reimus' due to the large numbers of 'failures' that have to be taken care of*. This raises operating costs, and therefore the cost of the end 'product' as well. Whereas 'Gold Patchouli's are less 'hard' to produce, and therefore cheaper in terms of operating costs.
Of course this is all just speculation on why the Gold Reimu is more expensive.
= 'Taken care of' includes, but is not limited to: Trained to Silver badge levels Checked for 'Deibu'ism, if not 'Deibu', given bronze badge Made into human foodstuffs Remillia Food Flandre Food Used to make MORE Reimu's(Alice rape method) 'Stress Relief' for employees
