Not there yet. Commonly (so the OYP tells us) yukkuris only dissolve when exposed to water in large amounts (pools, heavy rain, etc.) and/or over a long time. But then again, that depends on the artist, and judging from his/her works in here, Pixiv and even the OYP, Kanno pretty much belongs to the family-friendly side of the yukkuri fandom. And while we're at it, I also remembered a Pageratta comic showing a Yukkureimu acting like a kickboard for Chen (both of which are supposedly incompatible to water) - complete with the audacious claim "New fact: Yukkuris float."
It's just easier to say that Yukkuris work whichever way the artist/writer wants them to, meaning they can range anywhere from being the scum of the universe to surpreme wise deities and it wouldn't be false. Plus most artists that portray them in a positive light or as a miscellaneous setpiece flat-out ignore any characteristics Yukkuri fanon gave them.

Nah. Yukkuri violence is seen on a level similar (and in some cases lower) than actual guro to the point that nothing good would come from it. And honestly, even if abuse/trash Yukkuri pics were allowed, only a (very) small handful of artists' posts would survive through the que anyway and given the subject matter of the pics (Trash and Yukkuri violence), it's unlikely that they would achieve the love/hate reception that Depth Bomb and Tajima Yuuki have.
Yeah, but abuse pics are morally repugnant. And that would be fine (it's fake and everything), but abuse fans have the unfortunate tendency to turn EVERY yukkuri pic into abuse. For a pic like this they would gleefully tell us that the yukkuri will die in a few minutes. If you don't believe me, check out OYP on any pic that isn't blatantly family-friendly.
Honestly, I originally found some of the abuse to be entertaining, it was the other abuse fans that drove me off of it. Best to keep the abuse riffraff out of here altogether.

To be honest, very little of the abuse comics would appeal to non-abusers because they are either so over the top that they become obscene and aside from the subject-matter, the art and writing is generally pretty poor.
There is the artist who did the "Shell-Marisa" series but other than that, I doubt any would survive on the merit of art alone. There is also the problem of inviting that community and that is something I do not want to happen.
MezzoDragon said: I understand. But looking at the over-the-top abuse annoys me. But seriously, there should be a site dedicated to yukkuri minus the unjust abuse.
http://booru.org/ You can make your own booru if you have the initiative. I would definitely join. I didn't even like the format of OYP anyway, being able to favorite pics would be great. There's a lot of good stuff on OYP that we could transfer over.
The main problem is the lameness of most abuse stories and the biggest problem to me is the smugness of most of the human characters. But I can't fault the stories for accurately representing the intended audience.
Tea's main argument is that all family-friendly images are the same and therefore no one can argue against abuse images. He also has the belief if someone doesn't believe exactly like he does, they are trolling. He is a social-worker and says that Yukkuri-abuse allows him to unwind after seeing a lot of the stresses in his job. He also hates Danbooru, using the strawman that we somehow want to personally spite him by banning abuse pictures and that we love guro and are just pussies or something. He also takes everything literally since somehow he thinks I want to kill people over yukkuri abuse.
Also Sun learned art to express his hatred towards people, I also remember a rant in which he said that it wasn't racist to hate Blacks because he hates them as a people, not because they are inferior, and that he wishes he could kill people without getting in trouble for it. I will say that he is a good artist because his clay-statues are pretty good, providing he actually made them.
I am responsible because I did a lot of "trolling" but honestly, I said things as harmless as, "I don't think a Yukkuri pouting means that it should be killed" and had fights break over that. T
I hope I'm not the only one who finds this creepy, "Theres nothing better then torturing kos that were stupid enough to go with anon, especially burning them, imagining how they wrigle in your hand, shake their sidelock and sqeel from pain just makes me happy. And it is also good to see reactions of their sisters and their reaction after they wake up from shock while their feet still freakin hurt and then they cant move, then it would be awesome to put food right next to them and watch how they cant reach it. Now if you excuse me Im gonna get some professional help. :)"
Speaking of SUN, I remembered an argument over this picture (also hosted here) against TheodoricBlood (another member of that site) concerning the addition of the "Reimu's Reimu" tag there. SUN argues that those who draw Hakurei Reimu aren't into abuse, so it's automatic. But I've to side with Theodoric here: there are pictures of Reimu abusing yukkuris, even Yukkureimus (e.g. Rorinko, although he/she also draws cute, family-friendly pics), and not everyone who draws Reimu with yukkuris are always family-friendly (e.g. Warekara has the occasional guro/abuse story, but is otherwise better known for a family-friendly 4koma series starring Reimu and her Yukkureimu).
Long story short: SUN seems to believe in generalizing yukkuris as the "lowest scum of the earth" instead of considering the "aberrations", like Reimu's Reimu (unusually kind and helpful compared to its kin), M1's "Orphan Alice" (a woobie who's not into raping other yukkuris), & Pageratta's "Noukarin" (a farmer Yuuka-type).

That hatred may have precipitated once Tea got a very long ban for posting low-quality, over-the-top abuse-oriented yukkuri pictures here, despite knowing that this place doesn't take too kindly to them.

Oh... it's gotten so worse even Shii (the guy behind OYP) issued a front-page notice warning against violent comments on family-friendly pics and vice versa.
A lot of times these people make mountains out of molehills. I created an account called "Anelaidlreturns" and Tea wrote an essay about what I apparently meant to imply with the name "returns" and what not. My comments lately were deleted, since now you can't even say that you dislike meaningless abuse since its a matter of opinion, yet comments calling people who like non-violent artwork pussies were left untouched.

On top of that, some Yukkuris have been stated and shown to have been tolerant of water, doubly so if they are pets, as is probably the case with this pic.
