Didn't you get the memo Marisa? yukkuris don't let everybody else take it easy, they take it easy themselves then sneer and mock the non yu's while calling them uneasy. Usually the main reason of the hate yu's get.
Reimu has better chances of letting others take it easy being another animal, even a human or a youkai (as ironic as it may sound) than stil being a yu. So go for it Reimyu! Become bodied and then youkai and your dream will become a reality! Aim for Postyukkurismn!
Salem said: She did let everybody take it easy. The problem is, she has to get tortured and killed to do that so the abyuser can take it easy.
So, yu's need to learn to be more centralist than taking a side? Side 1 being ultra selfish easiness that leechs from others and Side 2 ultra selfless easiness that others take advantage.
The ideal her being able to take it easy herself while letting others take it easy without neither crossing the line.
Isn't she talking about getting fed up by being a character in a genre dominated by violent stories directed to her ? Time to back off from the business and enter retirement.

Nothing like the usual yukkuri's complaints
Isn't that obvious?
My comments were more a general commentary about the yu situation no the worth of the characters of anything, aside of a bit of joking about implications of Marisa being naive (you can even make also a character paralel by comparing it with the "honest cheerful actor" vs "selfish arrogant actor" situation that modern media has) and Reimu going youkai for great easiness.
There is also that new chinese artist that has a style notoriously based in Kiriraita.
Anyway, food for thought, I mentioned it before but I'll make the mental image more clear.
Yukkuris Like the Marisa and Reimu in this story = Those Actors and Actresses that love their job and like to make people happy through their acting and always have a good time doing their work.
Bad Yu's in general = Those actors and actresses that are selfish, arrogant and offensive, who just want to be pandered and praised for their "greatness" disregarding how badly they treat others or how low tier they really are.
From the uploader, me: I'm not sure if it's original; I jut saw this at somewhere, with dialogs that I could read (and translate). Whether it's from Chinese or Japanese or other artists I just don't know. But it's very unlikely to be English artist, as the bubbles are vertical.
About the strip: Well, who said that the yu that take it easy themselves cannot let others to take it easy as well? Many artists like pageratta, makako, warekara draw strips that are family friendly, or at least non-violent, while these allow all of us (and the yus) to take it easy.
I understand that the yus in every creation are just like the actors / actresses, no one is really harmed. But flip over the pages and see! Contents of torturing, abusing, bullying, burning cutting stomping beating poisoning starving eye-popping mouth-sealing poo-eating accessory-tearing and more torturing... What does this suggest?
I really understand... but not every actor / actress would be happy to ALWAYS be the bad guy in movies and get tortured and bullied and abused. Sometimes or another when I'm doing translation, I get a bit thrilled by the ideas and expressions and illustrations. I'm not a guro-hater, but sometimes get surprised by you thrillers.
I FULLY understand that it's freedom of artists to shape the personalities and fate of the roles they created. We aren't paying to read the comics, and shouldn't demand too much. Personally I just sometimes couldn't take it easy with the violent strips (during translation); I'd prefer the weird ones ("chaotic-oriented", relative to the "love-oriented" and "abuse-oriented") such as pageratta's.
Just wondering: back in the old days, who would think that the strange standalone heads would become such a living sandbag?
I'm fed up. Popularity of yukkuris comes from being abused, being bullied and being hated; it turns out that it's not easy for me at all.What... If Reimu is no longer a yukkuri, who's going to let everybody else take it easy?Reimu...I don't want to be a yukkuri...
I don't want to take it easy...
