/jp/ - Otaku Culture

I never really understood this.

Can someone explain to me, what the fuck is a "yukkuri"?
Also why the fuck do people draw only or mostly gore about them, people stepping on them, hitting them with things and drilling their assholes?

I ( somewhat ) understand those fluffy comics or images where there's these retarded ugly looking fuzzy midget ponies that people torture and kill because those things are fucking hideous, but yukkuris are pretty cute characters, so why the need to kill them?

This is one of those things like brazilian fart porn and amputee porn, that I can never get behind.

Maybe you guys can enlighten me on this, what's the fucking appeal in killing these cute blob heads?

Also, I dont understand much about touhou but are these yukkuris representing those touhou characters but as their own entities?
