Damn, that was fast - you beat me to it.

Thanks for the translations KuroBaraHime!

Damn.
If this is the ending, then it's a wonderful conclusion.

Title drop!

I hope this isn't the end... but it's a damned good one if it is.

Artist title and commentary do confirm this is the end.

Fannon tends to blow characters out of proportion, and Yuuka is one of the worst cases. Perhaps, some of us should think about whether Yuuka, Alice, or Reimu's personality works with a one word command.

;_;

now to read everything again back from the start.

this was an epic series, hope we get more from potato pot. though, I think some(?) of potato pot's works are left untranslated in other pool(s).

Is the next entry going to be called an Inquiry about Fujiwara no Mokou since Keine went to look for Mokou? One can dream right?

Problem is, Yuuka canonically considers genocide as a game (or at least her PC-98 incarnation does), and even Shikieiki, the freking judge of the afterlife, regards her as so evil that her very continued existence is regarded as a sin (Phantasmogoria of Flower Viewing)! If anything, fanon tends to sugarcoat her, with all the 'Youkai Moe' and 'lonely Yuuka' doujin/webcomic strips out there.

Yeah...no. You've managed to take a single line about nothing good coming from having lived so long (or something to that effect) and added waaaay too much unintended meaning to it.

You are right about fanon suger coating her but you've course corrected to the extreme opposite.

Well, I didn't expect this ride when I started reading the classroom antics. Another great work.

Way to be a hypocrite and blow it way out of proportion...in the opposite direction.
In what way does saying “It’s almost criminal how long she’s lived” equivalent to calling her evil?
And do you even know anything about youkai? They feed off human emotion, the easiest to inspire and oldest of which is fear. Youkai have to constantly maintain a fierce reputation, stir up trouble, frighten, prank, and unsettle humans just to survive. And of course this extends into lies, rumors, misinformation, and bluffs as well. Frankly speaking, unless you have a reliable source or witnessed it yourself, don’t assume guilt, even if someone appears to have confessed, ESPECIALLY a youkai, who are conditioned from a young age to put on a strong front and bluff for all they’re worth, just to scrounge up enough fear to avoid wasting away.
Alternatively, youkai can feed off of other emotions like gratitude, faith, and love, but they have a hard time resisting the instincts ingrained in them by the Lunarians. So for most youkai, they help and harm in equal measure. A drink shared after favors exchanged, followed by a cruel prank or scare is par for the course when interacting with humans.
