Patchouli: We'll make this Marisa a member of our tribe*.
Marisa with stick: Hurry up and make more food!
Text: Bad at gathering food, not very smart, a hindrance when it comes to surviving the winter--fed up with Reimu-types like this, this tribe uses Reimus to produce food. Even if they're fed yucky weeds and garbage, the babies they bear are delicious manju. The reason why the tribe decided Reimu-types were unnecessary was probably because Reimu-types didn't fit into any of the roles [in society]. Rather, when Patchoulis started to pair up with Marisas, the survival rate increased. Before that point, it was the numerous Reimus who paired up with Marisas.
The tribe chose the path of greater efficiency.
TL note: *Tribe: In Japanese, "mure". Is there a more commonly-used English term for a multi-family, multi-type community of yukkuris in the wild?
I would say Shithead Smart, one of my fears, that shitheads get too smart to raise survival in the wild, one of the ways for the uneasy end, though seriously no role in society? what about mother and teachers? hell there is also the "clan council" family organization councelor that many times a Reimu takes it's role for.
That isn't the case and you know it darn well Matt, drop the bias and accept the reality, Reimus can be useful if they aren't shitheads or scum.
Ironically when a Reimu is useful she'll say the opposite, "if there isn't mister food we can't go around making little ones, how will you feed little ones without food?".
There's reason shithead yukkuri are also called "deibus' and you know it , JIE ;-) Besides , every story where "Let's make little ones!" turned out to be a ticket for disaster the line in question was uttered by a beanpaster-for-brains Reimu. Well , anyway , Yukkureimus suffer from their originals' annoying characteristics cranked up to eleven ... which in their case is being a lazy slacker.
Shitheads aren't called Deibus, only shithead Reimus are called Deibus, if you call a non Reimu a Deibu you are doing it wrong.
There are shit name variations for Marisa, Alice and Patchouli as well, Bawiza, Awize and Badchouli.
And the original reimu isn't a slacker she's just lazy at her temple for lack of activity, when she goes out she's darn active. What you said Funk is as stupid as the claims that the connection of Rapist Alices with the Original Alice makes sense when Alice is only a loner, nothing more, nothing less.
@JIE Look through the images on this site. You'll see that the largest percentage of shitheads is Reimus, and some of the most extreme examples of shitheads are, again, Reimu types.
So, while not all Reimus are bad, I would say that 90 - 95% of Reimus are either already shithead, or can very easily slide down into being shitheads.
In order to avoid confusion I suppose I should clarify something.
You'll see that the largest percentage of shitheads is Reimus
That simply means exactly as said. It could be a case of 25% of shitheads are Reimus, and the rest are split up among other types, or it could be a higher or lower percentage, but the fact remains that Reimus are the largest single 'group' among shitheads.
In my own context, I take the fact that Marisas and Reimus are the most common and also have the most shitheads as a template that most of the yukkuris of a type are bad.
The only reason I use "Deibu" when referring to shitheads of all types isn't because of the association with Reimu, it's just the only name I can think of most of the time.
The thing is maximus five, is that it maybe more like Tea said, you are forgetting all the shithead marisas, i would even add the rapists alices as well.
In the end a shithead is a shithead, if we were to be precise about types that are most shitheads well, those are the reimus, marisas and alices. No way around it, Reimus aren't hte majority of the shitheads, they are part of the main bulk alongside Marisas and both are followed by Alices. So don't bring me the whole crap of "Only Reimus are Shithead or they are the main bulk of shitheads", if you have to follow the fanon as which types should be purged to get rid of the main source of shitheads, you wouldn't only grab the Reimus, you would grab Reimus, Marisas and Alices, period.
Those 3 even form the archetypical shithead raid group when they aren't only a "family of Marisa and Reimu."
So seriously drop that shit, it's as bad as the whole blaming "all the Alices" for being rapists, and i hate that, because it means people are too biased to be able to tell appart good ones from bad ones. And that's what matters, not the type but the invidual attitude and nature, if type really mattered, long ago we would be campaigning for the extermination of Marisas, Reimus and Alices.
Goddamnit, did you even really comprehend what I wrote?
This is an example of what I was saying: Shithead Population = 25% Reimu. Remaining 75% split between other types. THAT IS ALL.
The way the remaining 75% might be split could potentially be like this: 20% Marisa's 15% Alice's and the remaining 40% is divided up amongst the other types. Or it might be something else, I don't freaking know!
Seriously, Reimus have the highest number of 'shithead' cases, with the Marisa's firmly in second place. You doubt that? go count the number of shitheads of the three main types(Reimu, Marisa, Alice), and if the Reimus aren't the majority, THEN you can tell me that they aren't.
I mean, for craps sake, the Reimu's are the single most prolific breed of yukkuri, so it would ake sense for them to be the largest part of the shithead population. Yes, the Marisa's are close to the Reimu's in terms of numbers, but there are just too many cases of the Reimu/Marisa pairing having the Reimu as a shithead and the Marisa as a not-shithead(but still trash). You don't see the reverse of that as much as the above. If you want to get into more detail, you could even say that the shithead percentage for them is higher because they're the 'oldest' type. So, there's been more time for the 'shitheads' to reduce the population of the nice yukkuri.
And what part of 90 - 95% comes out as saying 'All'? That just means that ALMOST all are shitheads, or could easily become shitheads. And the bold'ed statement there could end up meaning that only 70% are shitheads, and the remaining 20% of the 90 are the ones that could easily become shitheads, or the percentages could be wildly different.
For that matter, I never said I 'blame' all the Reimus for the shitheads. I judge by the individual.
So before you getting all pissy on me again, make sure you aren't putting YOUR words in MY mouth.
Seriously, what gotten you so upset lately? Your latest comments have been sounding more and more angry.
I wasn't pissed at you first of all, it was an "in general angry" to many people being too biased because of the Deibu stereotype not even bothering to awknowledge the good Reimus at all.
Second Population wise, it's not like the Reimus are more prollific than the Marisas, being the main pairing of yukkuri hood, so i doubt any of them would have more members than the others, they had been pumping out reimus and marisas for ages before the types diversified, so i wouldn't be surprised if the true difference in numbers between those 2 types is barely of 10, 20 or 30, aka, nothing compared to the thousands of thousands we have now a days.
And dunno if i sound angrier or not, it's summer down here and it's roasting as hell, maybe that's making me post angrier without realizing it, though considering it's one of the few topics that REALLY bothers me of the fandom, you bet i can sound grumpy to angry, since i'm tired of the whole "Reimus are always shitheads or the mainbulk of shitheads" or "alices are in majority rapers" or "Kimeemarus can't take it easy and bully other yukkuris so they shoudl die".
Fuck that shit, sorry if you thought i was being angry on you, i wasn't, i was angry in general since i personally think it's more a biased conception than proper judgement of character.
Hope that leave things clear, probably summers makes me less tolerant to crap, whatever and sorry for sounding angry.
Besides, it's like people like to forget that Marisas were many time the scums of the pairing, then the things shifted and now act like there can't be a pairing of a nice reimu and a shithead marisa when that's a blatlant lie, old works proving such a thing.
Damn, Patchy has a weird stare there. Also, fridge brilliance here: at first I thought it was weird how they were using rocks to catch the new kos. Then it hit me: they're abusing them for the sweeter taste. Oh wow.
Also, you guys really should take your discussion on shithead population demographics to the Google group.
While i think you may be right Three, the ko's don't look like being too much in pain, only 2 seems to have a ">A<" like face, the rest have their typical content yukkuri faces.
Maybe they're landing on previous kos or something. Or there's a bit of padding so they don't squash and the rocks are there to discourage them from climbing out. Or it'll take a while for discomfort to set in, especially when they're shouting "Chake it eajy!" and nobody's responding. So it's just one component in this scarily well-planned yukkuri-made factory.
Think they didn't come up with this entirely on their own? Hm. Story idea.
Yeah this is 2 things Way too Smart and Way too Evil.
Way too Evil implies blatlant scum to shitheadness but that supposedly should deny the Way too Smart since shitheads and scums aren't smart and i doubt a good yukkuri would do something like this.
I suspect this is all a social experiment by an anon and once this clan has outlived their experimental usefulness. . .
@JIE Yeah, you have seemed a bit more testy this last month or so, but I hate the heat from summer too, so I guess I understand why its a bit easier to annoy you.
Finally, You do have to admit that Reimus do make up the bulk of the shitheads, and the Marisa's are probably a VERY close second, heck they're probably only behind by a few hundred cases out of the millions/billions of shithead yukkuris in the yukkuri world. (If you want to only compare the images on this site, then its probably less then 25 or so cases.)
The explanation is probably that they make up the bulk, simply because they are often portrayed as much more prolific then the other types. So, while Alices or other types might have the same percentage of shitheads in their types population, the Reimu's and Marisa's would still be the majority because they outnumber the Alices or other types 2 to 1. (That's an example, and not meant to be taken as a fact on their population ratios, its more to clarify my statement.)
On the 'Alice's are rapers' note, you might like the fanfic I'm working on then, as the main char is looking like he's gonna make a pet out of a non-raper Alice. .......unless my beta readers come back and says that's a stupid idea, or something. XP
So it's more about statics than real worth, i can live with that, >_> again as long as isn't about "types" but numbers that by coincidence makes it look like that while proportionally they are the same.
And yeah, 2010-2011 summer here in argentina can't take it easy, hell is so hot that i bet if we had a stray population here in buenos aires, our problems with them would be solved since they would all die out of the heat, well, at least solved until the next batch of dumped pets and wilds comes out after summer. . .
I figured some random Anon gave them the idea of using Reimus as yu-cattle and let them go from there. Or as a way to keep the local population under control/occupied (in a different way from post #27507), he gave them explicit instructions. And maybe takes a few koReimus himself. That's my Unnecessary Backstory Interpretation though.
Also, summer? wtf? Kind of Parsee about that; fucking freezing up north here. At least the snow's pretty.
man this whole discussion now made me plan out the whole process of how to make yukkuris do this in a series of steps and for what reason one would do it, at least from an experimental and scholar POV.
Also dunno man, this heat is really bleh, i liked it better way back at the beginning of summer when it wasn't roasting as fuck but was an acceptable summer hot, now it's plainly an oven enviroment.
And as i said before, yukkuris would probably be wiped out by this summer if they existed in buenos aires =3=. . .
Well i would had something more elaborate and with a reason of why to do it.
Basically in my case it would be a study about how easily yukkuris fall to extreme levels of discrimination and racismn, even more with the right "influence" and "triggers".
