So they disregard the overall size and only see the head?
Reminds me my theory of Yukkuris seeing humans as some sort of "Bodied Yukkuri with Name" species and looking down on them because of how they look down on bodied yukkuris, disregarding how the body and limbs makes anythign superior to a yukkuri.
Not exactly. It's a mix of perspective and how they only see what they want to see. There's been another picture on here that says how they don't recognize the limbs of the human.

That's kinda what i meant, minus the perspective which obviously help the koyukkuri think the human's head isn't bigger than a ko.
The theory part was just an extra of what it reminded me, but what i was thinking that it would make even more sense when you put an adult yukkuri instead of a ko, who by size would be bigger than a human head, but still, it would disregard the rest of the body and the fact that smaller head means nothing if the overall body is bigger.
Except for the fact that all humans would have to do is get near face level and any yukkuris smaller than a human head would start peeing itself if this theory held up.
Its an entertaining theory, but not much else. It only holds up if you have no concept of size or koyukkuris are ridiculously small compared to adult yukkuris.

I kinda don't know who you are agreeing or disagreeing with, or what theory in particular you are talking about, maybe you need to be expecific or quote who you are talking to?
I didn't quote anyone because it debunks both theories.
Unless yukkuris lie to themselves about the size of anything (no concept of size) or dosuyukkuris are the only "adult" yukkuri form they recognize (parents don't necessarily mean "adults") it doesn't make sense. When a human foot smashes your teeth out, you can't exactly ignore its existence and dosuyukkuris are simply too rare for them to make human/"adult" yukkuri comparisons.
Even if they disregard the human body, they lie to themselves about the height the "uneasy human" is at (crouch down, make it easier to compare themselves to a human head, should instantly scare off yukkuris smaller than the person's head), the height "uneasy humans" are at should actually IMPRESS yukkuris. From their point of view, all "uneasy humans" are "like flying in the sky". Its comical.

Err Yukiyuzen, you know that an Adult Yukkuri is one of those yukkuris that are basketball sized or beach ball sized, right? Dosu is beyond adult yukkuri, i think that's your mistake, you seem to not realize that yukkuri =/= koyukkuri in size. An Adult Yukkuri usually is bigger than a human head being basketball or beach ball sized, Dosus are in general bigger than a human as whole.
And disregarding bodies is more about "giving importance", they already consider bodied yukkuri uneasy, so maybe for yukkuris "what matters" is the head, since they are all head, and may think that bodies are useless and uneasy. Which would explain why Dosu get's respect since it's technically a bigger head, maybe more oval or not depending of the style of Dosu, but still an averagely head like shape which yukkuris can respect, meanwhile other non yukkuris don't get any respect at all since they aren't "big heads".
Plus lying to themselves is not just common for yukkuris, but probably a constant state of mind, after all, they try to take it easy, even if it minds shifting blame or "modifying" memories to make them look good. So don't consider yukkuris lying to themselves farfetch'd.
I know adult yukkuris are typically considered to be larger than a human head, thats why I said "yukkuris smaller than the person's head". Dosus don't count either since they're considered to have the intelligence to recognize humans right off the bat.
Except that completely rewrites huge chunks of commonly accepted yukkuri "canon". If bodies are useless and uneasy, yukkuris should go into a berserk state whenever they see humans the same way they kill bodied yukkuris. The fact that they don't and instead demand sweets, suggests that they can identify/recognize a "human shape" ie. the body. If the head is all that matters, either bodied yukkuris should be tolerated at the least or yukkuris should automatically be violent towards humans.
First, "take it easy" is ambiguous, don't even try that on me. Second, as I said before, "When a human foot smashes your teeth out, you can't exactly ignore its existence". Third, I already acknowledged that they lie to themselves. Re-read my previous comment.
I don't see how it contradicts the fandom when the fandom shows yukkuris not being berserk even with bodied yukkuris, just looking down on them and if they kill them either they are new borns or the yukkuri itself is a highly agressive shithead which, mind you all Trash yukkuris aren't as agressive as to kill anything uneasy in the spot, they first try to obtain servitude or supremacy over the uneasy. So Humans getting a similar treatment, isn't that weird.
Take it easy is not that ambigous, when you see it as "anything that makes me feel good and doesn't bother me", which seems to be how trash yukkuri in general roll their take it easy.
Finally as i said before, don't see disregard as necessarily ignore, but as look down, see it inferior or non important, etc.
Anyway, this is getting silly, i'll stop here.
