Ultimately, he does recognize an innate duty, as a yokai, to attack humans – much in the same way that a duck inexplicably feels the need to fly south for the winter. Whether it’s a duty that must be fulfilled regardless of her taste for it, or an animal instinct that sprouts from the subconscious, it’s clear either way that her heart isn’t that into it. Rumia openly states that she doesn’t need her powers during the night, however this doesn’t cause her to shift into predator mode: she continues to wander Gensokyo, only attacking those whom she randomly runs into. Put simply, filling her belly with human meat wouldn't be a high priority for Rumia, if she bothered to have priorities at all. This follows a similar trend that Akyuu notes in her ending monologue in PMiSS. Relative to yokai-human relations as they existed during her previous incarnations, Akyuu notes that things have never been better for both groups. Yokai are content to live off of other foodstuffs and farm humans for existence-sustaining belief, and instances of humans being eaten by yokai are rare. Many of the yokai danger levels are inflated as a result, Akyuu admits.
